A nice apartment, fully equipped, super close to the beach(1 minute walking), and also very close to the restaurants area.
Lisa, the owner is a great person, super kind with us.
The apartments also counts with everything you need to go to the beach

The two bedroom bungalow was very homie, had everything ready for our stay. Is a little old of a place but the up keep and decor made it feel like you were home. We had a pretty good storm while there and the property manager was in contact with us the whole time was very much appreciated. Would definitely stay here again. Very close to the water and just a block away from the village. Loved our stay.

Cute little place in the perfect location. Lisa was very communicative and accommodating.

Will definitely book again wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Property was as advertised and we were happy with the location. Only issue was location of next door property and the loudness of their gatherings on 3 occasions. I had to call sheriff 3 occasions to go and ask them to lower voices directly under our bedroom windows at 1:20 AM being the latest. Our host Lisa was very responsive and helpful.

The location was awesome Right near the beach and the Village! Nice not using a car.
4.8
Clean, comfortable and easy access to beach. Everything we need was already there. Would book again without a doubt. Thanks!

We have not a bad thing to say about our stay. Lisa did everything and more to make us feel welcome. When you walk in to a bouquet of flower, box of candy, someone cares. The pictures are just what you have to make your trip enjoyable. Kitchen has a variety of pots and pan.
Nice supply of bathroom towels, beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, wagon.
We liked it so much that after 2 days I rebooked for 2025!

We were concerned about wifi before renting because we work part of the day. Lisa reassured us that she has a hotspot that is in all of her condos for us to use. That worked great during our stay and we didn't have any issues. The condo is well setup and so conveniently located. It is very close to the beach and town. We walked to all restaurants that we ate at. We would definitely stay here again and have told friends about this great condo.

This cute place was even cuter in person! It has everything you need and then some. Excellent location and Lisa was super nice and accommodating! Will definitely stay again.

We loved the cozy spot and it was just right for two couples to enjoy a relaxing week. We had a few issues, and Lisa took care of things immediately. She was really great!
4.8
We booked 5 nights at Gem and had a wonderful time. The condo is so close to the beach and SK Village. Couldn’t be happier with the location. All beach equipment is provided too.
Lisa was great and really efficient and helpful. We will definitely visit again

Can't ask for a better location. Easy walk to restaurants, grocery store, shops. 1 min walk to the beach. Cant beat it. Awesome host! 10/10.

My wife and I were very pleased with our stay. It’s in an excellent location. The beach is literally just around the corner (you can see it from the deck between two buildings, not the best view but very close). It was exactly what we we looking for, close to the beach and Siesta Key Village. Just 10 minutes or less to walk to the main strip where the restaurants and shops are. If you were so inclined, you could park your car and never need to move it for your entire stay. The unit had everything we needed for the week we were there, utensils, cookware, towels, beach chairs and even a beach cart! Is it a luxury suite, no. But it was very clean and well supplied. If you’re looking for a place within walking distance of the beach, restaurants and shops, and won’t break the bank, it’s perfect. We WILL be back to this unit (although probably one of the bottom units next time, just to avoid the stairs). I’d give it an A+

Great location in a beach bungalow. Pet friendly and family friendly.

Had a wonderful time for a short getaway. Everything for a beach vacation was provided. Nice beach chairs, umbrella and big beach wagon was great to have. Comfortable beds and very clean. Will return on next trip to Siesta Key. Village is so close never used our. car.

We love Siesta Key! Barefoot bungalows was perfect for our family. Location was on point. They were very thoughtful and have everything you need for the beach. They even left new sand toys for the kids. We will be back!

As advertised, it was very close to all the Siesta Key Village has to offer.

The team that assisted with the stay did a good job, they provided a cooler, chairs, umbrella, beach wagon, towels and fresh flowers. I had no complaints with them. The condo itself needs work. There was a major ant problem. One day we left a box of donuts we had gotten for breakfast on the counter (we closed the box as well) and we returned there were ants all in the box crawling on the food. The ants were on us in the living room as we sat on the couch as well. The cups, plates and silverware were dirty. The steps up to the second floor were outside on a deck and we are pretty sure they were not connected to the house itself. They would sway back and forth, I am pretty sure they wouldn’t pass a state inspection. A lot of things were very beat up and needed to be replaced. Lastly, I am allergic to mold and dust, one of those things was in that condo and caused me to have a pretty severe reaction. I would sneeze, have itchy watery eyes and drainage; but then we would leave for a hour and my symptoms were better. If we were out all day my symptoms got drastically better, but then within a hour of return to the condo my symptoms would be back. I would not recommend a stay here until some major issued are addressed.

Can’t beat this location and rate. Clean and stocked with everything we needed. This is the third time we have rented one of these units and will plan to come back again.

We’ve been coming to Siesta key for 17 years and this is the best location we’ve stayed so far! Less than 5 minute walk to the beach AND the village! Lisa responds immediately to any questions/concerns. Free washer and dryer on the property is a big plus. Keep in mind that there is no dishwasher, which in our case was not a biggy;) Internet is not particularly fast which for us wasn’t an issue but something to keep in mind. Overall , great vacation- enjoyed by all!

The place is Clean , near the beach , all the restaurants and shops!!
Definitely stay again!!

Cute little condo in a convenient location just steps away from the beach. There were a few minor things like the burners not fitting the stove, the microwave not working, dryer not working, and lots of ants throughout the house. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.
4.8
The new construction condos blocking the beach view is a bummer, but walking to the beach only takes 2 minutes. Great cozy place for a small family. Walking distance to everything from the grocery store to all the night-life restaurants/bars. I would definitely book it again.
4.8
Had a wonderful time staying at the GEM. Access to the beach and village was awesome. Walked everywhere!! would love a small dishwasher added especially if we were there more than a few days!!
4.8
Amazing location for our girls weekend! Beds are so comfortable, all appliances & beach accessories are there.

Just a few steps to the beach and into the village.
Lisa is amazing to work with and very responsive!!!
Looking forward to our next stay!

Renting this property was easy and the location was nice.
4.8
This was our second time staying at GEM and it was as excellent as the first. Great location to the beach access and village, clean unit, communication was phenomenal with host and we will be rebooking again in the future. We love Siesta Key and there is no better location than this for your stay!
4.8
We loved staying here for our mini beach vacation. The location is nestled right between the shops restaurant and beach access. The construction right next to it was not ideal but we knew it was there and it wasnt noticeable if you were inside. We would definintely stay here again!
4.8
Fabulous location. Short walk to center of town and Beaches. Fully equipped home with everything. Very clean. As indicated there is construction was a little surprised to see that it 2 massive buildings that essentially blocked view. So if you are expecting to sit out on the deck to see some sort of view it’s not that kind of home. As stated location is the reason you will want to stay here. Overall excellent home that I would recommend.
4.8
The unit was clean, had nice items like soap, etc. and an excellent location next to the beach and downtown. Peaceful area. Some building next door, but it wasn't too much. Bottom line, we would stay there again.
4.8
Enjoyed the location and the Property Manager was very responsive. Would stay again.
4.8
Lisa goes out of her way to make your stay so enjoyable. Any questions you have Lisa is quick to answer. This was my second year staying there and I hope to make it # 3 next year. The location is the best. Walk to beach in minutes and also you can walk into town. I love this place

Love this bungalow. This is our 2nd year. We've already booked for next year. Property Manager Lisa Matthews is wonderful. If we had any questions or issues she responded quickly.
4.8
We enjoyed our Siesta Key vacation. The proximity to the village and beach are definite pluses of the bungalow. Due to the construction of two large buildings on both the side and back of this rental it wasn't really enjoyable using the deck area. Also, as another reviewer mentioned, the king mattress is in very bad shape. The unit is super clean but could use updating, such as adding drawer pulls and handles to kitchen cupboards and replacing flooring that was pulling up. We love Siesta Key but would not likely rent here in the future.
4.8
The unit was very clean and well-stocked with towels, soaps, and sheets. The proximity to the beach is a PLUS! We had an easy time finding the unit, getting in, and communicating with the owner. We wished for a dishwasher and a newer and former king mattress. We loved Siesta Key!
