About this property

Studio Retreat Across the Street from Beautiful Siesta Key Beach

Simple and elegant furnishings include a king-size bed, also a comfortable Queen-size Murphy bed (no sleeper sofa to toss and turn on keeping you up all night), 32" LED TV W/HD programming and access to streaming apps, small but very effective kitchen with stove, oven, sink, microwave, refrigerator, Keurig coffee maker, and light cooking accessories. The unit also features large walk-in closet and full bath featuring a stall shower.

Walk just a half mile north to Siesta Key Village where a myriad of restaurants, shopping, and bars can be found. Explorer the rest of the island with ease as the free Siesta Key trolly stop is also just around the corner.

Great location- across from the beach
This is not on the beach. It’s across from the beach behind a building. So it’s not ocean front. It’s small but met our needs. The only issue was that the unit holds a lot of moisture in it and it felt like all the sheets and blankets etc were wet when it was raining. Also, there is no bathroom fan to get the moisture out. Black mold growing on the window in the bathroom. Also, the gravel you park on gets tracked in easily into the unit so take your shoes off before going in. Lastly, a comment to the owner - there needs to be towel hooks for beach towels and bath towels to be hung. It would be good to install about 6 of them for convenience of the renters. Comfy bed and Murphy bed. Location was in the heart of everything.

Cute little place
The description "Elegant Studio Retreat" isn't quite right, elegant is not the right descriptor, but it's a cute, clean little place. The outside seemed worn/widows were dirty, but clean inside. Sleeps 4 with a murphy bed, but that'd be tight, better for 2. It was quiet when I was there, and I'm not sure how parking would work if all units were full. Great location across from the beach. I did hate the ad screen in the room (Welcomes you to the unit, but also randomly came on at 7 am on checkout day and woke me up). There's a comfy sofa, but it's a bit stained and maybe not entirely clean. Bed was comfortable. I wish there were staples in the kitchen (salt/pepper/spices, etc). The property manager office was kind and communicative.

Our stay
The house was in a great location! Walking distance to the Village and beach. It was not very clean. Dirty floors and toilet. It did have everything we needed. Would have appreciated more wash rags. We had plenty of towels.
