Chad is very quick to communicate and had the house stocked with essentials for the kitchen, bath and the beach. The record player, yoga maps, weights and boxing gloves are a nice touch. The location is excellent - next to all the restaurants/shopping and a short walk to the beach. The place only has one bathroom, but we made it work without a problem.

If you are looking for the perfect spot in St Armands, this is it!! So easy and Chad has everything you need to get started with your vacation. Steps from great restaurants and 2 blocks to the beach. It couldn't have been a better spot to spend our vacation!!

We had a wonderful experience at the Beachy Speakeasy. Chad has created a wonderful space in which you can relax, enjoy the shopping nearby and unwind from travel. Thoughtful details abound in the unique space above St. Armand's Circle. The outdoor space is phenomenal. Lido Beach is just a short walk, and all of the tools to enjoy it are right there in the unit: chairs, wagon, umbrella. Sarasota's new trolley service made getting back and forth to downtown a breeze. Chad's communication was clear and we knew exactly what to expect throughout our stay. Would definitely stay there again!

Awesome weekend

WE thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Beachy Speakeasy. The apartment was great, the location is amazing if you want to be in the thick of the restaurants/stores/more, the little extras were a bonus, and our host Chad was extraordinarily responsive when we had questions or requests. Multiple thumbs up.

Perfect spot and wonderful accommodations.

I look forward to my next stay at the beachy speakeasy. I felt very much at home in this cute two bedroom condo with fully stocked kitchen. The host has truly thought of everything, and the details were duly noted! I was especially impressed with the variety of condiments available for my Nespresso latte (e.g raw local honey etc.) I bought a few groceries and was able to cook and eat most of my meals at home because the host has a fully stocked kitchen with pots and pans and a variety of appliances like a crock pot, a toaster, a blender, espresso machine, coffee maker, coffee bean grinder and water filter pitcher just to name a few. I felt very at home with these details that I didn't even realize made such a difference until I was away from home!! The bed was really comfortable and it was very quiet which is important to me! Great strong wi-fi and the entire condo is set up with music receivers so that you can listen to music throughout the house and there are phone chargers available in every room. They even have a record player with some old school records if you're feeling nostalgic! I was able to do some yoga out on the rooftop which was really nice on a beautiful day. The host was very helpful when I had a few questions prior to check in, but they also provided ample information, instructions in the "condo manual" so that I could enjoy my privacy during my vacation and didn't need to reach the host again. I would highly recommend staying here. ~M. Donnelly

The location was great for shopping and dining within St. Armand Circle. The bedrooms were very nice and beds very comfortable. We didn’t use the kitchen but it was large and well equipped. A lot of little extras that make a difference like: bathroom amenities including mouthwash, toothbrush and soaps. Anything you would need for the beach including sunscreen. There were plenty of sodas and even beer in the fridge when we arrived as well as a Nespresso machine with pods. There were a few minor things that needed repair like the toilet paper holder and a missing towel holder in the bathroom. The entrance to the apartment is odd in that it’s in the back of an alley by the garbage dumpster with a bit of a rough entrance that includes 2 flights of cement stairs to reach the actual apartment and there is no designated parking. Parking was a bit of an issue as you could park on one street 8pm-8am free of charge and then hourly parking during the day, so it was a bit of a hassle moving the car every 12 hours. It was a fun time and nice stay but next time I would choose convenience and closer proximity to the beach.

Great space in a great location. Very clean. Host is wonderful

Chad was an awesome host! Great little hidden gem in St. Armands

This property exceeded our expectations. Very inviting and welcoming. Exceptionally clean and stocked with anything you may need and MORE. Perfect location for a family who wants a little of everything, shopping, restaurants and the beach. We can’t wait to return.

The place was spacious and cute with everything we needed (like coffee and plenty of towels!) Loved that we could walk to breakfast and dinner and beach was short walk or drive. Owner instructions and tips were incredibly thorough and helpful. Had an awesome time!

My wife & I were here in mid February. This place is smack in the middle Armands Circle in St. Armands Key. As you enter St. Armands Key and enter Armands Circle, you can't help and feel how wonderful this place is. So many shops and restaurants. People milling about and music played from different areas within the circle. This continues thru the evening. The 2 bedroom apartment is above Salt Life clothing shop. The apartment is entered thru the rear of the building and go upstairs to enter the apartment. This apartment was very clean and different from many VRBO apartments. This apartment also had a rooftop deck sitting area.. This apartment was filled with everything you can think of. Kitchen closet had all sorts of snacks & beverage. The bathroom had plenty of towels, hair dryer. curling iron and toiletries.The apartment had a large cart with beach chairs, umbrella, bikes, roller blades and helmet. The beach is within walking distance 1/4 mile but for older adults a 3 minute car drive.. Don't want to forget the washer & dryer. It had everything along with that different feel that makes it unique. The host Chad was most helpful, especially in guiding us to get .to the door. Now the following mentions in no way changes how my wife & I ,feel about this place. Because of the steep steps to get to the apartment, older couples 70 or over will have some trouble going up the steps while carrying their suitcase and keeping their balance. The second is a suggestion to Chad. When first walking into the first door, the floor is all painted grey. It may be worthwhile to paint a 3"yellow border on the edge of the stepdown. I would highly recommend this apartment when visiting St. Armands Key.

The location of this unit is amazing—right at the circle with hundreds of shops and lots of restaurants. Less than 10 minute walk to the beach. Owner has bikes, a beach cart, beach chairs, a cooler and umbrella—all great for the stay. He sticks the kitchen and bathroom with anything you could need. All was great! Hoping to come back soon!

We enjoyed our long weekend stay it was so convenient very close to beach, restaurants and shopping. Definitely recommend! And Chad was so responsive!

Comfy beds and pillows, so clean, so well appointed, beachy decor with so many cute touches, and in the perfect location! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would come back again!

This property is a very nice condo just steps to the beach and St Armands circle. Everything was over the top clean and the accommodations were incredible. The owner was in continuous communication with us. All beach supplies are available as well.

Everything was great. Chad was very helpful. The unit was clean and had all the amenities we needed for relaxing or taking a quick walk to the beach. I definitely recommend it. We had an absolute blast. The circle is a great area.

The location of this blue door hidden gem is perfect! Walk to restaurants, shopping and the beach in minutes. Chad, our host provided beach chairs/ umbrella, beach wagon, cooler, even bikes (we did not use them)… everything needed for a great beach day. Apt was clean and had so many extras. Parking was never a problem on the side street and was reasonably priced. This beachy bohemian little apt was a great get away! We will definitely book again! ❤️
