About this rental
Hurricane Update: We lucked out! Hurricane Helene did not flood our beach house except for the carport. We need to replace the hot water heater, the washer and dryer, and some walls and doors made of wood. Hurricane Milton damaged some soffits but they have already been repaired.

Area Information
The question is not what to do on Siesta Key, but how to do everything. Name your interest. If dangling your feet from your beach chair in the gentle surf is your thing, you’ll find your heart’s desire here. You like fishing? Charter boats leave daily from marinas less than a mile from the house. Prefer a higher octane sport? Rent bikes, paddle boards, kayaks, personal watercraft or pleasure boats on the key. Shopping? Bring your charge card, you’ll find both funky and exotic temptations in local boutiques. Golfing? Over a dozen golf courses lie within a 40 minute drive. Museums and galleries? Plenty. If good food is high on your list of vacation pleasures, you’ll discover the key is bursting with flavor, and you won’t get fresher seafood anywhere on the gulf. Dine al fresco in your flip-flops, or reserve your table for South Florida haute cuisine.
But what will draw you and keep you on Siesta Key is the pairing of soft, white sand with sparkling gulf water. Unfurling north to south in a three-mile ribbon, our beach offers its own menu of activities: build a sandcastle; collect shells; take a swim or a nap; watch pelicans swoop and dive; keep an eye open for dolphins frolicking in the gulf; fly a kite; play bocci; or simply join the beach walkers who daily stroll the tide line as far as the eye can see.

Perfect Getaway!
We SO enjoyed our stay there! Our stay was to celebrate a milestone birthday of our sister and we couldn't have asked for a better spot! Our main goal was to relax, catch up and enjoy the beautiful beach and we did just that!The well appointed kitchen was perfect as we opted to stay in and cook the majority of the time. No having to get ready to go to a restaurant!! We each had our own bedroom so we could relax and recharge if needed. We used some boogie boards that were there and had a great time playing in the beautiful fun!We met many nice people on the beach and we hope to see them next year when we return. It was so relaxing and beautiful that the week flew by and it was har d to leave!

It's great to read about how well your sister's birthday week on the beach worked out for all of you. Our family can relate to your desire to stay put and not take advantage of the many good restaurants nearby - because staying on the beach is such a beautiful and relaxing option.
Perfect location! Wonderful accommodations!
Booked this spot for the first time and spent a wonderful week there with my three sisters for a birthday celebration. The weather was great and the beach and water were everything we had hoped it would be!Liz responded quickly when a minor issue with the AC came up and all was good to go! The kitchen was well appointed and we ended up eating out just once and we cooked the rest of the time. The house was perfect for the four of us and we made some great memories! We've already booked for the same time next year! New traditions!

Beautiful View Great Location
Perfect oceanfront stay! Group of 8 (4 adults and 4 children under 10). Fit our 2 families perfectly and is only steps from the beach making it easy to run back and forth. Close to all shops/ice cream/restaurants. Fully equipped kitchen, updates throughout, comfortable beds and linens and cute beachy decor. Rented beach chairs and a tent for the week from a local company. Outdoor area was perfect for nights/mornings while the kids played football in the grass and on the beach. Pool was huge and there was never an issue finding seats/shade. Booked for next summer already!

Wow! What a wonderful review. It captures all the best aspects of a family vacation at our beach house. Thank you Lauren!
This place is heaven on earth.
This location is absolutely amazing. It is rare to find a beachfront with 4 bedrooms. This location allows us to have 3 generations with something for everyone. The sand is clean and beautiful and the sunsets are gorgeous. This is our 3rd time in this unit and our 5th time at Aloha Kai.We have tried other places, but there is nothing like this one.The management is responsive and kind and we have never had any problems. We will see you next year!

Thank you Missy for your compliments. It's certainly my pleasure to communicate with guests who are as enthusiastic as you are. The other owners and I always appreciate hearing about how other famlies and friends enjoy various aspects of the house and its location when we can't be there to enjoy it ourselves.
Amazing!
Beautiful, gorgeous, breathtaking! If you are looking for a bungalow on the beach, look no further. Our family of five with 3 teenagers fit beautifully here. Wonderful accommodations with a stocked kitchen and towels/linens provided. The sunsets in your ‘front yard’ each evening do not disappoint. We came in November for Thanksgiving and the weather was divine not to mention clear waters and white sand. Siesta Village was fun to explore as well and close enough to ride to on bikes.

We're so happy to read that our house on the beach was a good fit for your family and that you enjoyed your time on Siesta Key. Thank you for your glowing review. :)
Absolutely Perfect Location
Siesta Key is absolutely beautiful and Lynn's house is literally on the beach. A short walk across a wide expanse of sand - cool even in hot weather - brings you directly into the Caribbean Sea. The best restaurants are a short drive away as is a grocery store and lots of cool shops that my wife highly recommends!The house had everything we needed. Too much space for just the two of us but we picked the house based on location. The neighbors were great - sharing tips about the local area.We have rented beach houses before many times. This is the best one we have found.

Wow! For someone who lives in Florida to say our beach house is the best is high praise. Thank you! As you many know, it's the quartz composition of the sand on Siesta Key that keeps it cool even on a hot, sunny day. We're so happy to read that you enjoyed your stay in our beach house.
Perfect home on the #1 Beach in the USA
Wow, is all I can say! We had the most perfect week at this perfect home that steps right on to the sand! I never wore shoes! The kitchen had everything you need. As a tea lover there was even an electric kettle and Teapot to brew my perfect cup in the AM as I sat on the outdoor patio to enjoy the unobstructed view of the perfect beach. The beds were all comfy! The decor of the entire house was very well done. We never turned on the TV once! Our day was spent at the beach, dinner then back to the beach for sunset watching! Kids enjoyed every minute. The water at this time of year was warm and a beautiful turquoise color like being in the Caribbean or Hawaii! You won't be disappointed with the gem on the #1 Beach in the USA. The village of Siesta Key is close and convenient. Lynn is very responsive to any inquiry you have. Great owners! We plan to rent again next summer!

We're so happy to hear how much you and your family enjoyed your vacation at our beach house on Siesta Key. Thank you for this awesome review. We will share it with everyone who helps us to maintain the house in excellent shape.
Doesn't get much better!
This amazing duplex is absolutely perfect for a family getaway! From the cute quiet brick street leading to the house, to the towels embroidered w/colorful fish, you won't be disappointed in the details this treasure has to offer! From the well appointed kitchen, to the extra power strips, to the extra bedding and towels and BBQ grill complete w/accessories. One bedroom has it's own little patio w/chase lounge if you need to escape from the family and soak in the salty air alone! Each family member had a need to be near the beach to help heal our hears after the loss of my husband in August. He would have loved the beautiful sunsets while sitting on the patio. The beach is amazing as always, but here, it's a little more calm and quieter. You won't go wrong renting this haven. It is worth every penny. Imagine sitting on the back porch early in the morning, the salty air blowing and the sounds of the ocean.....you won't want to go home!!!
