This host is very good at communicating and replies instantly, but the property itself is very well managed and taken care of, with a gated entrance I was never even worried about locking our car the whole stay

Beautifully decorated and appointed condo, plenty of room for everyone. Best of both worlds being by the quiet bay and a quick 6 minute walk to the white sand beach.

Beautiful property. Well located on the island. Very nicely appointed - especially the kitchen - utensils and pots and pans. Great access to the beach, while still being in a quiet area due to smaller complex. Secondary pool on the intracoastal was deluxe - not too crowded. Lots of stairs and a working elevator - all good. Plenty of floats to bring items back and forth to/from the room as well as a shopping cart for groceries. Highly reccommend this property.

Spacious, clean and close to everything

We loved our stay. Location is perfect, staying on the bayside was unique and picturesque. The walk to the beach was nice and easy with chairs available for setup. Our family enjoyed playing pickle ball, using the fitness center and the ease of being able to walk to the restaurants and shops

Great Getaway!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at The Palm Club on Siesta Key. Even with the area still working to recover from the hurricane, the experience was very pleasant and the staff did an amazing job communicating and offering additional services. Would definitely recommend stay with Gertrude Rentals!

Another Great Siesta Key Trip with Family and Friends

We really enjoyed our stay at Palm Bay Club with Gertrude Vacation Rentals. The combination of the beach with the pool/hot tub overlooking the bay makes for the ideal stay. The 3 bedrooms and 3 balconies gave everyone their own private space! Looking forward to coming back for years to come.

Fantastic stay

Had an incredible stay. The amenities are outstanding. The early check out is a slight bummer but makes sense since we were asked not to clean up after ourselves. Would definitely try to return next year!

Good spot - would recommend

Great location, close to the beach. Pools were very nice. Water was very hot in the spa but overall very clean. Nice, friendly guests. Check in was smooth, but would recommend key information to be summarized at the top of the emails.

Great location

We enjoyed our stay. Property is very nice and clean. Location was great and near a trolley stop that allowed access to both sides of siesta key. The two pools were very nice and refreshing. Dan was very responsive to an issue with the coffee maker and replaced it the next morning. Thank you!

Had a great week

Our stay in the Kingfisher at the Palm Bay Vlub was very nice. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. The private beach was well kept and loved that they had guys on golf cart out to help you when you got there. Had my 72 year old mother with us and they drove her right down to where she wanted. Will definitely be back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a wonderful stay and absolutely loved this unit! The accommodations were exactly as described and very clean. Check-in and check-out were incredibly easy—check-out was literally just walking out the door, which we really appreciated. The in-unit washer and dryer were a huge plus and made our stay even more convenient. The location is amazing, and the Palm Bay Club property itself is top-notch with beautiful pools, a hot tub, gated community, and direct beach access with beach service. We truly love staying here. This is our second time at this unit and will absolutely return. Highly recommend!
