Beautiful condo, close to beach. We were in Siesta Key to see the Sand sculptures and location was perfect as we could walk. Downtown area is very cute. Condo was very comfortable for 3 couples and very clean. We didn’t have time to use pool but it looked beautiful. Check in and booking were extremely easy and owner was very accommodating. If we are in the area again, would definitely love to stay again at this lovely condo.

Relaxing stay at Siesta Key

Overall very nice property and great location on Siesta Key Upstairs carpeting and overall decor are a bit dated; no icemaker in fridge and some confusion with light switches and/or not working lights; but otherwise clean and welcoming. We had a great time at the beach!
