About this property

The fabulous beauty and presence of just being at Siesta Key is unmistakably infectious. Heighten your family’s enjoyment with the ability to just take a few short steps to the white quartz sand from your personal lanai. The ground floor provides an unobstructed 180 degree view of the blue green waters of the gulf. Your privacy is heightened with no common walls with adjacent units. Take full advantage of your precious vacation time without the exertion of excessive stairs, elevator concerns, FOBs or long jaunts trying to locate your car in the crowded confusing parking lot. Your #1S VIP reserved parking place is just a short stroll directly to the entry door without stairs, elevators or interference. Take full advantage of the little things that make your stay largely more enjoyable.

Continuously relaxing in the front centered lanai, gazing over the blue green waters can sometimes present a surprise visit from a dolphin or a turtle in the white sands. The view is breathtaking... you can’t escape melting into the unfolding mesmerizing dusk of Crescent Beach and the captivating views of the sunsets during your memorable stay.

The unit includes 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, a King, 2 twins, a sleeper sofa for 2 for a total of a 6 sleeper with a full-size living room and dining area overlooking the fabulous view. Fully equipped kitchen, all appliances with free Wi-Fi available on all 3 TV sets. This beautifully maintained complex is located on one of the frequently voted number 1 beaches in the US. Two (2) beach cabanas, beach chairs, lounge chairs and a scenic courtyard with tables and chairs available for your use.

Other amenities include a heated pool, game room, outdoor shuffleboard, and grill area with picnic area to enhance your family’s fun at your stay at The Island House.

review of 1s

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was very good except for the roaches we seen every night. I reported it to front office, but received no follow up. I got a couple, but they would run under the baseboard. Wife was not happy.

Rating Details: The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always make the best of our stay. We have been going to 1s for the last 10 years. We love Siesta key. But the unit is a real dump, so many things wrong and the owner does not care to up grade! Electric outlets in master do not work, floor slopes. Tiles need to replaced. Wallpaper in bath is peeling off toilet not flushing right, mold on ceiling. Fan in twin bedroom needs to be fixed. Only good thing is the location.

Island House a Family Favorite for 40 Years!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family has been staying at Island House since the 70's and we absolutely love it. The units vary in upkeep, but typically we have no major issues. 1S is a great unit with awesome views and beach access. It is in need of remodeling, but heard that is already scheduled. The unit is a little different as one bedroom doesn't have an adjoing bathroomm, but no huge issue.

Great views but very dirty and poorly managed apartment

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unfortunately, this is the first year at island house after 15 years of going to another complex. We came to celebrate our son’s 1st birthday. Upon arrival, we instantly noticed the dust pile on all the furniture, including in the rooms, and fans. The master bedroom had mold surrounding the air vent and a huge black spot on the ceiling. The rooms also had carpets which contained a plethora of sand. The sliding glass door to access the beach was completely broken. This was a huge hassle for the family. We called maintenance and all they did was put WD-40 which lasted a few open and closing of the door. After the first night, we all woke up with runny noses. The inside of the window in the master bedroom was completely cracked and raised concerns for safety. WIm de We will not be returning as we did not enjoy our stay. For the price of the unit, this is NOT worth it. We tried to advise the property manager upon check out but was advised they were not there. We are also sending the property manager the pictures of the condition of the unit. Kindly forward this to the unit owners and make them aware of these conditions.

Perfect location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: You can’t beat the location! Beautiful view every minute of the day. You are literally right on the beach. The condo has well maintained appliances and furniture is up to date. It’s a very old building so there definitely is some wear and tear on the ceilings, walls, doors etc.

We’ve been staying here for 5 years, so we know what we’re talking about. There have been some appliances updates, but it’s time to update the rest!

Great location- Need renovation!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this apartment couldn't be better! We love Siesta Key and being able to have such a wonderful view and proximity to the beach, is definitely priceless!I didn't have any problem with Property Management. I just asked a few questions and they responded right away. Now, the apartment needs major renovation! The back doors wouldn't lock, the blinds were not in good shape, some outlets were not working, bulbs needed to be changed, etc. The carpet in the rooms were not my favorite.Overall, the experience was great because we had a blast in our vacation, but I would have definitely preferred to stay on a place a little more updated and better taken care of.

Apartment 1S

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of Apartment 1S is more than perfect. Just steps to the white sands of Siesta Key's beach. The unit itself need some updating. The carpeting in the bedrooms needs to be replaced with tiles. The hall bathroom needs upgrades. Not enough wine glasses!!! All of this can be overlooked just by sitting on the lanai and looking at the view. We will be back!

Location Location Location.

The sunsets/beach views - as well as the location of this property are flawless. You have direct access to the beach - after walking out your back door - you are on the beach. The property complex is remarkably maintained - but this unit itself has some cosmetic issues. When I rented this unit - I rented it because of its location. The unit is directly on the beach and close to numerous excellent restaurants. I would stay at this unit again.
