  : The location was great, we walked to the beach and Siesta Key village easily. There is also a nearby trolley stop which you can ride to further destinations on the island for free. Management was quick to respond to an internet outage and provided us a hotspot while they were resolving the issue. The kitchen was stocked with basics for cooking and we didnt need to buy soap, paper towels or toilet paper.
  : The windows in the bedroom are jalousie style (louvres), so they let in plenty of heat, humidity, smell and noise. We visited in summer during red tide, and happened to have noisy neighbors, so the windows were the biggest downside.

  : The air conditioning unit stops working between 1-3 am. It gets very hot and does not turn on. Theres a sign posted that the air will turn off if you lower it below 70 but we had it a 73 and it kept turning of by itself between 1-3 am. Really inconvenient for the customers. If the owner knows the issue with the air he should get it fixed instead of putting a sign saying it malfunctions

  : Location was great only a 5 min walk to the beach. Beach chairs and towels provided.
  : My husband and I booked this rental through booking.com and all our emails prior to our late arrival confirmation had the address and house # as 549 Beach Rd. Our late arrival confirmation comes through as 543 Beach Rd and we arrived to a small cottage that was not pictured in detail on the booking.com site. Upon talking with management all we got was a Im sorry, no refund offered or anything. And after our vacation we read reviews online and it seems this was no mistake as it has happened before. The 549 rental has been rented by a family living there for over a year that we spoke with. This cottage could use lots of updates..very small shower that leaked, bathroom has no fan or AC, floor in bedroom and floor of shower both felt like they could break down in certain spots, cockroaches were found in extra bedroom, main bedroom bed was very unsturdy, flat and uncomfortable, and extremely squeaky. A great location but very very unhappy with what we ended up with as a 15 year anniversary mini getaway for me and my husband.

  : location was great
  : Everything! They switch places on us as we was driving down there. Lied and said there was a problem with the original place. What they did was rent our place to someone else! ALSO they would not return calls when we complained about it!!
