Siesta Key Long Weekend

We rented Gertrude 3BR home for 5 nights. I have to say, the house rental was completely spectacular. Very clean and well appointed with amenities. The best part was all the beach gear and wagons to be able to set up at the short walk to the beach. The shared pool with the home next door was great also. I would highly recommend Gertrude rentals and highly recommend Siesta Key as a destination.

Great location

My family agrees this was the best vacation rentals we stayed in. We had everything we needed for our stay at the house. Everything we needed for the beach. Such a short walk to the beach. It was great to have the elevator for my parents who are elderly and it was nice to use when taking loads of stuff up and down the stairs.

Spring Break

We hosted Spring Break for our daughter and several of her friends. We loved this location. We were in the middle of everything—the walk to the village was so easy, we were only steps to the beach, and the place was clean and spacious. We will definitely be back!

Great

This beautiful beach home had it all for 6 of us—beach chairs, umbrellas, bikes, cooler, swimming pool, beach towels, and even an elevator! Very clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable beds, and a kitchen that was well stocked with dishes and cookware to cook, and eat in if you want but it's located close enough to walk to the village for live music and great food and drinks! Located in a quiet neighborhood across the street from the beach! This place is going to rent out quickly—don't miss a chance to enjoy it for yourself!
