This charming two-story duplex beach house with private pool and spa is conveniently located on a quiet street within a block of the village and short walk (under 10 minutes) to the beach. With two tastefully decorated bedrooms on each level, four baths and two kitchens and living areas, there is plenty of space for the whole family. Whether you are poolside or strolling in the crystal white sand, the Siesta Village 'Osprey' House is a relaxing oasis to visit and explore the island. This house is a half a block from the center of the village and very convenient to several beaches. You can walk to a variety of restaurants, boutiques, grocery and other specialty shops. Of course, the best in nightlife is only a short stroll home. Guests can enjoy the natural beauty of Siesta by foot or boat and also visit Sarasota's world class marinas, art galleries, theater and recreational amenities. Also your family's Disney trip is only two hours drive. Our remodeled home features tasteful furnishings, decorated rooms, newer kitchen on first level with stainless appliances. Outside you will enjoy the 30 X 15 lagoon pool (set up for volleyball), 4 X 8 spa and large terrace/sundeck. The rear open deck on the second level overlooks the pool area. There are three outdoor staircases between levels which provide guests privacy with access to the pool. There is a nice canopy of tropical landscaping with variety of palm trees around the yard which provides shady areas throughout the day. Also, the gas grill is located in the back by the pool.
Great location and size for 8 adults and 5 kids. 4 couples had a bedroom and the kids slept in the upstairs living room on pull out couch and trundle bed. Grandkids loved the pool and spa. Kitchen was well supplied and the accommodations were comfortable. On the negative side was cleanliness and linens need to be replaced. We all loved the fact we could walk to the beach and had access to restaurants and the donut and ice cream shops.
Great location, perfect for my family. The kids loved the pool and spa. Close enough to the village and beach for the adults also. We had a wonderful week.
A little trouble with AC upstairs BUT Don was a very accommodating, responsive host. The house location is so great - just a block from Siesta Key nightlife! And we LOVED playing pool volleyball out back!
This villa is in a perfect location for visiting Siesta Key - its a pity it does not live up to expectations. First impressions when we pulled onto the drive were not good - the outside looks drab and in need of maintenance. On entering the property it was clear that the same could be said of the interior. Fixtures and fittings need updating and/or repairing. It was very dark in all rooms as a result of broken blinds and filthy windows. Generally the property was not clean and one of the beds had dirty sheets which we had to wash before we could use. Bins in some of the bathrooms had not been emptied and 50% of the towels were marked and stained. Glasses in the upstairs kitchen had mould in them and had clearly not been washed at all.
Pool itself was clean however surrounding area had not been cleaned or tidied for some time.
We tried to contact the housekeeper but were unsuccessful so had to live with it but fortunately were only there for 3 nights.
This was the most expensive villa we stopped in during our tour of Florida, whilst appreciate the location is worth more the villa is certainly not, and was a real disappointment. The photographs are very different to the reality - I can only assume they are old pictures taken some years ago immediately after a refurbishment and they certainly don't reflect the current situation.
Don had everything ready to go when we arrived. The pool was spectacular and was the perfect place to be during the hottest part of the day (and when it rained!). Would definitely stay there again.
We've been to Siesta Key four straight years and have stayed at this property the past two years. We bring a group of 11 so it fits our family perfect. We are only in the house for an occasional meal, sleep and just when we get too hot from the sun. The best part of this house is that it has a private pool. It's great for kids because it stays fairly shaded. If you're looking to get your tan, there are spots by the pool that work as well but may be better off at the beach. We have a 3yo and 1.5 yo and the shaded pool is great for them. All in all, the property is great and at a reasonable rate. If you're looking for luxury living, it's not a 5 star hotel but it's a great place to stay and relax, and has a nice pool all to yourself. I've been here two years in a row and would gladly make it 3, 4 and beyond if it stays like it is.
The Osprey is nearby the best location on the key for sunsets. Take a short walk and to watch the sun go down over the Gulf of Mexico every evening. Within easy walking distance of everything you need in Siesta Village. You may never need to move your car during your vacation. And if you want to see more of the key, there are many free (tips only) taxis available.
