What a wonderful stay in Siesta Key at a great condo with wonderful owners. I can't begin to tell you what a great April we had staying in Dave and Dannie's condo. Everything was provided. Everything we wanted for our stay in the condo was there. What a great surprise! Short walk to the most beautiful beach we've every visited and the free trolley to the Village was so helpful. There is no way we were ready to leave after a full month in the condo. Wonderful people stayed in the complex. Always helpful and friendly. I hate to talk about this place too much for fear of loosing our private place on Siesta Key ;). Thank you so much Dave and Dannie. You made our retirement celebration month the very best.
The Condo:
The two Bedroom Condo is in a very good condition. The kitchen is literally fully equipped and the full size refrigerator comes with a big freezer and a build in ice maker. The master bedroom is very comfy and has big closet, a sideboard with drawers and two bed side cabinets for all your belongings. The 2nd bedroom has two separated beds and also some stowage for personal things. The closet is already stocked with beach toys, coolers, umbrellas, books, beach stroller and many other useful things. This cabinet is a real treasure chest! It’s impossible to get bored in this condo. The bathrooms are also very nice and already fully stocked with soaps, towels and you may even find a sealed spare toothbrush! How is that?!
The Location:
Americas #1 Beach is just 1 minute away and monitored by lifeguards. Everything is very well maintained, it’s quiet and the surrounding is very safe. A fire department is nearby. The location is totally amazing! Also it’s a short trip to Busch Garden and even Orlando is easy reachable!
The Owner:
The Owner of the Condo is a great person. He is 100% reliable and very friendly. He takes care about anything! You need a spare lightbulb? You don’t have to call him, because there are plenty of lightbulbs in the “Spare Lightbulb-Box”. Remote batteries are low? You don’t have to go to Walmart because there are 20 new batteries in the “Batteries-Box”. Detergent? Check. Pen sharpener? Check. Clipper for open potato chips? Check. MacGyver would build a whole aircraft only with this things! I can’t imagine a better landlord.
Conclusion:
This was my best vacation rental experience. The only bad thing was to leave this place.
If I had to write one word it would be: GREAT! Great location - just 10 minutes max walking to the beach, no sand in your car :) All shopping is within 15 minutes drive - Costco, Walmart. Free taxi ride within Siesta Key - very clever way to attract people to the town core. Great place - clean, spacious, well stocked (from beach chairs, umbrellas, beach cart to such little things like ice cream spoon and pizza cutter)! Great condo complex - nice pool, natural gas grill (we call it barbeque in Canada :), nice property manager. We had two weeks of truly family vacation, enjoyed very moment of it. But the best part is the owner - Dave. I've never met him but can't recommend him enough! ALWAYS replies to my questions withing short period of time and answers are always prompt and informative! When we decide to go to Florida again we won't have to decide where to go :) (Little secret: My wife didn't want me to write review - she was afraid we won't be able to get time slot next time :) But I convinced her to do it just because we felt to tell other people about this place). Sorry if my review looks like commercial but we honestly enjoyed it! So don't hesitate and book it (just check his calendar - it's already booked for half of the 2016).
