Large comfy house great for groups.

Conveniently located with many nice amenities and plenty of space for large groups. I stayed here with my sisters and we enjoyed the house a lot and were very comfortable. It’s a short bike ride to the beach and town, but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful. The property manager is great and helpful. Beds are comfy which is a must for me. I recommend staying here.

Fantastically Located and well stocked for the beach

Couldn't really ask for a better location, close to the village with restaurants, bars, and ice cream shops. Walking distance (.8) mile to the beach. Towels, a wagon, chairs, umbrellas all well maintained and ready to take to the beach. Bring some WD40 for the metal bunk beds, as they're very squeaky, and everything but oil and coffee for the kitchen, and you'll be golden for a great stay.

Siesta Review

This was a beautiful property, me and my two daughters stayed but there was ample room for 10-12 comfortably. The house was clean and all the extra beach supplies were provided. We rented a car for the trip, I would recommend that or renting a golf cart during your stay as it is about a mile to mile and a half walk to the beach access. There were two separate outside seating areas and a grill to use as well. Wen ended up making friends with a family of bunnies and some little lizards in the side outside seating area.

Great location and setup

Nice property and great location. Stayed here for a work trip so I don’t feel like I was able to fully maximize all it had to offer but it was a great place to come back to after long days of meetings. Only minor issue was the master shower never got warm. I didn’t have time to notify the property manager. Also recommend they supply more hand towels and wash cloths for the bathrooms. Would stay here again.

303 Givens Street, Siesta Key, Florida

Overall a nice place. The furniture needs updated, however the place was very clean, well stocked with towels, etc. apparently we misread the distance to the ocean. There is a small alley way that you can see the ocean from but no access to it . The actual ocean access is roughly a mile away. At our age( knee and back surgery in the last year) we weren’t able to walk that distance. The actual Siesta Key beach is amazingly beautiful but a ten minute drive, however to find a parking spot was next to impossible. We found the town to be a party town not family friendly.

Great easy stay

The house was super cute, looked just like all the photos! Location couldn't have been better, 2min drive to siesta key village (a fairly doable 10min walk) and also less than 5min drive to more populated city for groceries, food, coffee. The house had plenty of beach towels for all the guests and tons of beach stuff including a cart which was SO helpful for all our beach gear and coolers. The best part of the stay was check out, it was so easy and didn't make you clean the entire house before checkout. Will definitely stay again if in the area.

Pleasant house with short walk to beach and restaurants

Overall, we were happy with the house. However, ad claims it has 3 bathrooms, but there are just two full bathrooms and a small powder room. Two couples had to share one BR and shower, which was not what we planned. Bedroom with bunks has a loud AC unit and quite a bit of noise from the nearby road.

Fiesta in Siesta

Five girlfriends and I stayed here to celebrate a 40th birthday. It was affordable and in a quiet neighborhood just outside the main strip. Questions were promptly answered whenever I emailed and will certainly consider Gertrude Rentals at their other locations. Recommendations for the house would be a full-length mirror somewhere, pump soaps instead of hand soap, and some hotter water for sinks. Showers were fine for temps, but washing dishes, hands, and faces were done with cool water. All quick fixes but didn’t impact the stay and just some preferences for a group of women.

Great Location

we had a great say in siesta key with our 3 teenage boys. The house was clean and close to town and an easy bike ride or walk to get to town. Would have appreciated more toiletries (other than hand soap) etc similar to other rentals where there are typically bath towels, shampoo etc. Beach towels and chairs were definitely a plus.
