Portal to Everything - Siesta Key & Beyond :-)

The place is in great location, near everything, restaurants, supermarkets, beaches. The place was cleaned and had enough amenities that we need for cooking and laundry. It provided shampoo and shower gel. The host was very friendly and helpful.

We have rented many Vrbo in USA Canada & England This is our first negative review On check in the house was dirty & porch filthy The owners did clean but it was 5 hours before we could settle in Two days later the owner poorly cleaned the filthy porch so we took 6 hr to clean it Nice kitchen was poorly stocked Tayna did provide necessary items The house is fine comfortable and neighborhood nice Shopping is 1/2 mile Our rental was from 2/1-3/31 We found it necessary to depart on 3/12 Vrbo& Tayna were notified and I received acknowledgment from Tayna . She had agreed with Vrbo to refund us if any of our remaining dates were booked The calendar booking onVrbo was not available until 3/19 On this date a forged change was made to my account The new dates were 2/1-3/19 We left on 3/12 Also the daily fee was increased by 43.30 We were not looking for a refund just courtesy & honesty respect and decency Jean

House was comfortable. The bedroom configuration was a little goofy but it worked for us. The kitchen supplies were a little lacking. No baking sheets, and the glasses were a hodge podge so we bought 4 glasses to use in the house. All in all it was a good place for us

We had a great experience with this listing. The location is top notch - close right up to siesta beach and filled with nearby attractions. The house itself was very high-ranking, with lots of accommodations and clean spaces that made it feel cozy and welcoming. Whenever we needed something, we reached out to the host and she responded immediately, providing helpful recommendations and assistance to enhance our stay. Fantastic listing and a very providing host. Highly recommend!

Clean, good location and everything we needed for a great family vacation.

Our group of 12 (8 adults, 4 kids) stayed here Aug 7-12. Prior to making our reservation I reached out to the host to make sure they could accommodate all 12 of us. They indicated we could, so we went ahead and booked. We were hoping to check in early but that did not work out. In fact, at 3:30 (check-in was 4) the host reached out and said it would probably be 5 before we could get in because the previous renters had left such a mess. We were finally able to get in at 4:30. Since our reservation was for 12, we assumed they could accommodate 12. There were only 5 beach towels, so we took bath towels to the beach. This meant, we would not have enough towels to shower with once we returned. There were zero wash cloths or dish cloths in the house. Also, there were zero linens for the double and twin air mattresses. I had to reach out to the host for those. Even though the house was not large, one of the bedrooms was very warm…I’m guessing it’s a vent issue. We had issues with the dishwasher not working. The host did come over to look at it. For it to work, the disposal had to be unplugged…a nuisance but at least the dishwasher worked. Some other things to note: The only extra toilet paper was partial rolls. We started running out by our third day since there were 12 of us. Rather than continue to bother the hosts, we opted to buy our own. Also, even though bikes were listed as an amenity not all of them were serviceable. The screened in porch furniture was worn and did not appear to have been recently cleaned. The location worked well for us. It was about 10 minutes to Siesta Key Beach. Shopping and dining was nearby too. If your group is 8 or less, I would consider this house. For larger groups, I would consider staying elsewhere.

Just fantastic ?

We really enjoy our time staying in this quite neighborhood, 10 minutes driving to Siesta Key and 20 minutes to Lido key. Communication and attention received from Tayna is excellent, she is super responsive and nice accommodating to our needs. The umbrella and chairs are dirty and rusty but still usable, of course better than nothing, so we appreciated those . I believe description of the property is wrong, it has room #1 with a King, room #2 with two queens and one inflatable mattress, sunroom #3 has only one queen and not two bed as vrbo stated, also there is no 4 room, there is a closet with one twin bed but no air conditioning or windows so nobody can sleep there.

This is the first time staying here and we enjoyed it. It is literally 3 miles from the beautiful white sandy beach. You don't have to deal with all the beach crowd. It is closer to everything. Less than a mile from everything you need (Restaurants, grocery store, shopping mall, and so on). The house is perfect space. Extra mattress if needed. Two things that we did not like was that the cleaning company did not stock the washcloth. Only three washcloth was available but many towels. Also the ceiling fan was not cleaned. Other than that, this was a spacious, and welcoming home. We will definitely stay there again.
