Siesta Sister - Waterfront

The communication from Bob was unusual in the rental world, and does everything to accommodate. I agree with all the good statements by others but will try to address some of the questions I was wondering about the unit prior to arrival. There are 5 units in the building, and the walls must be quite thick because I didn’t seem to hear much of anything. We were worried about our dog barking and disturbing others but wasn’t an issue. I have specifically stayed in Bradenton Beach for the last 8 years because of how narrow the Island is in this location. When you can see the ocean from the bedroom in the back & the bay front in the front, it’s not hard to realize it’s pretty narrow. I alway’s rent a few kayaks and bikes. This was the best property so far to launch a kayak from. Even in High tide it’s usually only a little over knee deep. Especially at low tide, there are many areas to explore in the Bay if you like snorkeling, which I venture to in my kayak. Some areas even become land in the middle of the Bay. Bring some good binoculars or even a spotting scope. It’s fun to watch the ships travel through the bay, which range from quite large to just a group of kayaks. Our teen age/ young adults enjoyed the short bike ride to Bridge Street for fudge, putt-putt, or coffee. Each room has 1 parking spot assigned to them, which are a little larger and more convenient than your other guest space. Check out the Gulf Islands Ferry on Bridge street pier. Pretty cheap.

Everything was great! Location was perfect. The property manager was so nice and accommodating. Definitely will be back!

Very nice place. Provides everything you need for a great vacation. Very comfortable. Great location. Wonderful views from balcony.

My brother, sister-in-law, my sister and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Siesta Sister for a week and we have already booked it again for next year. The condo was clean upon arrival and the living/dining area is spacious! The primary bedroom (king) and bath had more than enough room to move around as did the guest bedroom. We wish it would have had full beds instead of twin beds, but it was fine for a week. While the kitchen is tight, it is well equipped with everything you need for some “home-cooked” meals. A small step stool might be helpful for those of us who are quite as tall as others!This condo is right on the bay and the view is gorgeous looking out from the living room. We used the dock every day to chat and just enjoy the views. A two minute walk to the ocean made this condo perfect for us!

Love how close it is to the beach

Everything about the rental was easy and convenient!! Beach is so close and we either walked to dinner or took the trolley. The only time we took the car was to go grocery shopping. Great view of the bay in the AM then a 2 minute walk to the sunset in the PM! I would definitely recommend! -Kristen

Great view of the bay. Gulf easy walk across street, beautiful beaches, can walk to restaurants, trolley nearby. The unit itself is very nice. Would stay again.

Location and view was amazing, condo was clean, property manager was lovely to work with.

Very comfortable!

The apartment has a beautiful view of the intracoastal and was a block from the beach. Location was perfect. If we wanted shopping/restaurants it was an easy walk to Bridge St., but the street the apartment was on was quiet. Furniture was comfortable. Landlord was super easy to work with and very responsive. Our one suggestion would be to inventory and restock the dishes and silverware. I think there were only 5 or 6 spoons, 7 larger plates, and so on. With four of us, we ended up washing up multiple times a day just to have enough to go around at each meal. All in all, a minor inconvenience for an otherwise great stay.
