The main takeaway with this oceanfront beach house is the LOCATION & price. You are on the best beach in the USA. It’s great to have your own space and not deal with the public beach crowd. A short walk, or hop on the free trolley, to the shops & restaurants in the village. We’ve traveled all over and our favorite continental spot in the US is the Gulf Coast. An oceanfront beach house directly on Siesta Key at this price is a steal. Now, yes, the house needs some updating. Everything and I mean everything is worn out and dated. Unfortunately only one open air balcony on the top floor with two chairs. The others have been closed in. Tons of little ants which there were traps for. No issue for us, this is a beach house. The water pressure is low but most rentals have a restrictor on them. A little difficult to keep the 3rd floor cool but it wasn’t unbearable. There is enough space for 8 people to sleep and coexist comfortably. Parking is no issue which includes garage space for one and a driveway that could squeeze 2 average sized cars. Siesta Key is great to run or bike in the morning, grab some coffee/breakfast, then hit the beautiful beach, which is what we did most days. We had a great time on our vacation and will definitely stay here again!
