I loved my stay! The pictures did not do this adorable, spacious home justice. Easy beach access, a great tiki bar on the beach and several good hotel restaurants…all literally 1 block away! Close to St Armands Circle for shopping and a 6 minute drive to downtown Sarasota for easy grocery shopping, great restaurants & nightlife! Definitely plan to come back again :)

Overall, happy! A few things: parking spot is very tough to get in and out of if there's another car next door. My bedside lights flickered whenever water was running in bathroom or kitchen. There's a really tough drawer to open in the fridge. The screen door in back is rubbing on the steps and is a little wobbly. Loved the screened in porch!

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback on Ringling Cottage, Amanda! We’re so glad you enjoyed the screened-in porch, that’s such a great spot to relax We appreciate you calling out those details as well. The back step and door have since been taken care of, and the owner is in the process of improving the driveway and parking area (though we agree, the spaces can feel a bit snug). We’ll also have our maintenance team take a closer look at the flickering lights to make sure everything is just right. Thanks again for staying with us and everyone at Siesta Key Luxury Rental Properties truly appreciates it. We’d love to welcome you back for another easygoing island stay!

Terrific property for the price in a really nice location!!

This property gives you a terrific bang for you buck! It's located just a few blocks from the beach and less than a mile to the shops and restaurants. It works perfectly for two couples or a small family. There are two living spaces plus a screened in porch. The only FYI I would give is the driveway is narrow and the parking tight. We had a small car and managed it really easily, but no one was home next door which helped. Also, the 2nd full bathroom is out in the laundry room, which is really the entrance into the house. A little awkward, but it worked for us really well. I would totally recommend this property and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, especially for the price!!!
