Kirk - August 2023: The space is amazing. It's very clean, well kept, well stocked, extremely tastefully decorated, and makes you feel very much at home. Jonathan was extremely communicative, personal, and accommodating. The home manual inside is next level with information and instructions. You will have no regrets when booking this space, it's well worth the price point.
Becky - July 2023: If I could give Jonathan’s house more than 5 stars I would! The house is extremely clean and our family felt right at home in this cozy villa. We loved relaxing in their bright sunroom and the house is very convenient to everything in Siesta Key. The owners have literally thought of every detail for making the house comfortable and also for things you may need when traveling away from home. It was so nice to have plenty of beach towels, beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler available. Jonathan is also extremely responsive and helpful.
Jeanna - June 2023: Jonathan was an AMAZING host! He thought of everything to make my husband and I feel right at home. All of the extras and small details made us feel so special. The beautiful home was beautifully decorated, cozy and stocked with everything one would need while traveling away from your own home! We loved his well-organized and thoughtful binder that gave us a wealth of information about everything in the house and local businesses/restaurants. We went to several of the restaurants Jonathan recommended and even ordered his favorite meals. They were spot on! Rent this beautiful house for your beach vacation. I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Incredible, Comfortable Stay in an Excellent Location
I've enjoyed three years in a row at Jonathan's wonderful Siesta Key house and hope to continue doing so for years to come. I've stayed at multiple rentals all over the country and nobody's home or hospitality has compared to this one.The house is immaculate, well-appointed, comfortable, and fully stocked with everything any vacationer should need. The beds are comfortable, the shower is hot, fluffy beach and bath towels are provided. Everything one needs to cook with is available. The house is bright and stylish with plenty of room for several friends or family. Jonathan has everything labeled and clear and communication with him has always been prompt, helpful, and pleasant. Cleanliness is extremely important to me and I've never had a single complaint. The lanai is super pleasant for a nice lunch and the outside area is my favorite place to sit with a cocktail at night under the twinkling lights or a coffee in the morning. The pool is practically right across the street and is always uncrowded and refreshing. Although the beach is right across the main road you have to walk a bit to access the path to get onto the INCREDIBLE white sand beach and into that gorgeous clear water, but it's not far at all. Across the street from the path entrance there are a couple fun and festive indoor/outdoor restaurants and bars for food/drinks/entertainment, a coffee shop, and even boat rentals. There's also a free shuttle to the bustling little downtown area but if you're a walker like I am, it's really nice to stroll there on the beach. You also have the option of calling a local golf cart taxi driver to bring you downtown. They all work for tips so remember to bring a little cash!I'm a typical New Yorker and don't drive and there's really no need for a car in Siesta Key unless you have accessibility needs. I can't wait until my next trip to escape the Northeast winter and enjoy a cocktail watching the perfect sunset and scouting the next spot to eat fresh grouper!! Thanks for everything Jonathan!

The Most Well-Appointed Villa
Snowbird here! We have found the BEST winter getaway! My hubby and I love living close to our kids and grandkids, especially for the holidays. But then the cold and snow in the Northeast has us running to the cutest getaway on Siesta Key, FL. The house is beautifully decorated and outfitted with everything you could need for a relaxing warm experience. Snuggled between the Intercoastal Waterway and the Gulf, this villa on Siesta Key is an oasis of peacefulness and fun. An evening stroll to the private dock for cocktails or a short walk to the beach to watch the sunset is made simple because everything you need (beach wagon, towels, cooler, and beach chairs) is provided! Jonathan is a most attentive, caring host. We love our special time at this villa!
