☀️🌴 Enjoy the Best of Florida Living !

Saltwater Siesta was carefully crafted and is lovingly maintained with your sunshine and relaxation in mind. It’s the perfect place to unwind and soak up every golden ray.

Our home receives regular professional pest and maintenance care to keep things comfy and welcoming. To help keep uninvited critters on vacation elsewhere, we kindly ask that doors and windows stay closed. In our sunshine state tropical surroundings, you may still spot the occasional tiny visitor indoors or out — a cheerful reminder that you’re enjoying Florida’s vibrant natural tropical beauty (and that nature likes to say hello, too!).

Our pool is lovingly maintained with twice-weekly professional cleanings and inspections, keeping it clear, clean, and ready for a splash anytime. Because it’s open to the fresh air and surrounded by Florida greenery, an adventurous leaf or two may occasionally drop in for a swim — just part of the easygoing island vibe! A skimmer net is provided so you can quickly restore that postcard-perfect sparkle whenever you wish.

Please note that refunds aren’t offered for the occasional leaf or minor pest sighting — just part of Florida’s natural charm. We work hard to keep everything clean, comfortable, and welcoming, and truly appreciate your understanding. Thank you for being wonderful guests, and enjoy soaking up the sunshine!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fenced private yard.

We loved this house! It was the perfect spot to wrap up our vacation before heading home. Awesome location as it was very close to the airport. The place was super clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It was perfect for our multigenerational family — plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy time together. The pool was sparkling clean and awesome to soak and play in! Communication was great, and the whole experience was stress-free. All around, a fantastic place to stay — we’re already looking forward to coming back!

Absolutely Perfect Stay!We stayed at this beautiful home for a short visit with my two grandchildren (9 and 13) and my 81-year-old mother while exploring destinations for a future family vacation—and it exceeded every expectation!The house itself is beautifully decorated, spotless, and so comfortable. Every detail was perfect, from the cozy beds to the fully stocked kitchen. The pool area was sparkling clean and absolutely gorgeous—a perfect spot for everyone. The game room was a huge hit with everyone (including Grandma!), giving us plenty of fun family time together.The location was ideal, close to everything and we felt very safe! Communication with the host was outstanding; instructions were clear and helpful, and it truly felt like they cared about making our stay perfect.We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This home has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable, family-friendly getaway. We’re already looking forward to returning with the whole family for a longer stay!
