Cozy feel for the family

The house was cozy and quaint which is what we wanted. Nicely decorated and the furniture was comfortable. However, the pool wasn’t clean and the cleaning tools were broken. Also, the closest public beach entrance is very close to the private part of the beach. My family and I were told that we would have to move to the public area, which wasn’t clearly labeled. When the employee pointed it out, it was a small corner area of the beach which was not the cleanest. Although we were only a block and a half from the beach, we were made to feel excluded since we weren’t staying on the condos on the beach. We would have to pay by the hour to go to the private side which was only a few feet away from us. And that beach was not as clean as Ledo beach.

We will be back!!!🏝🏝🏝

What a get away!!! We had to book a place last second and normally we would take what we could get but this time we were lucky. This home was out of this world great. Super clean, well stocked with everything we needed, soaps, tows you name it. The only thing we had to get was our own food. It was so good. The pool was clean and perfect, the beds were amazing and there were more bathrooms then we ever needed. The local was unbelievably perfect and a very short walk to the beach. This section of the beach was amazing and privet. Our young children love love loved it. Can't wait to come back and maybe one day we will buy a home very close to here we loved it so much.

Family Vacation

Our whole family really enjoyed our vacation. The house was extremely clean and had plenty of room for all of us. It was great having a private pool and being within walking distance to the beach. The staff was all very friendly. When we had a small issue, maintenance was there within the hour and made sure to fix the issue the same day. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation. We will definitely be back!

What good is it to stay close to the beach when you can't find a place to sit?

The property was beautiful, well kept, and clean. The main issue that we had were related to the beachfront properties located at our south end of the beach. Four condominiums have "claimed" most of the beach for their residents and allow only a very small sliver of space for non-residents. They have placed rows upon rows of chairs on what they claim is their beachfront (most chairs remain empty throughout the day) and placed flags to mark their turf. Any attempt to put a chair into "their" private beach is met with confrontation and threats to call security. Unfortunately, this is at the far south end of the beach near the Point of the Rocks where the beach naturally narrows which further congests beach traffic. Consequently, if you are late arriving to the beach you will find very little room to sit. I was shocked to see this turf war and even more shocked at the aggressiveness of the condo staff. I was under the impression that all Florida beaches are considered open to the public, so I was shocked to see this roping off of large parts of the beach by greedy condos claiming beachfront ownership. I have been coming to Siesta Key with my family for years. I have stayed in many locations along the Siesta Key beach. We had never seen this and believe that it should be addressed by The Cottages on the Key. You will begin to loose revenue as your clients begin to run out of beach to enjoy. For us, we will not be back to the south end in the future. Too bad that such a beautiful property be so effected by greedy condo owners.

Great stay on the Key!!!

Townhouse was spotless and perfect for our needs. Having the private pool and hot tub was great but being just 2 blocks from the Beach access is what sold us! Dealing with Summer from the management company was an absolute pleasure. Highly recommend this place & Siesta Key!! P. S. Everyone loved the Welcome Cupcakes!

The property was beautiful and much closer to the beach than I thought. Everything was included; all beach/pool supplies that’s could have needed, all kitchen cooking needs, plenty of r gulag towels and beach towels. The property is absolutely spotless and the property manager checks on any need you may have throughout your stay. It well exceeded our expectations!

Great Property

If you’re filtering out townhomes while searching for places in Siesta Key, you are missing out. This property was the perfect getaway for our family. The neighborhood was quiet. The walk to the beach only took a minute(no sandy wet car seats). The house was spacious and clean and the private pool and hot tub were a relaxing way to end each evening.

Loved this place!

We were looking for a place along the gulf with easy access to the beach and found the Serenity Cottage. Beach access is just a short 3-4 minute walk down the road, which is safe and pretty private. We loved the house. The master suite upstairs is insanely spacious and private. The other two bedrooms are good size and we loved how each had their own bathroom and that there was another half bath on that floor, as well! The living area and kitchen is an open concept to allow for people to be together in multiple spaces. The screened in porch is large and nice for mornings and evenings! The only complaint was that we wish the pool would’ve been screened in, as well. The bugs were out and being incredibly pesky! If you’re staying here, definitely recommend bringing bug spray and citronella candles to use at the pool. The hot tub was not working but the property management team was tripping over themselves trying to make it right for us. Will DEFINITELY book again if we are headed to Siesta Key. This place is a special gem!!

This was a beautiful property, right close to the Siesta Key beach. The pool was clean and tidied up mid week during our stay. The furnishings are high class. The beds were super comfortable.

Fantastic Escape!

This house is absolutely stunning! It was very clean, spacious, and had beautiful simple beach decor. Everything is up to date, and the pool area was perfect. It was private and quiet with beach access at the end of the street. All the "extras" were there too - many pool towels, a high chair, and beach gear - a cart, toys, chairs, and umbrellas. We were an extended family traveling, and this place provided enough space for everyone. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this "cottage" (it's more of a house!)

Extremely clean!!! Absolutely beautiful property with a quick 3 minute walk to Crescent Beach!

Such a beautiful home! Extremely clean! My family especially enjoyed the private heated pool. The walk to beautiful Crescent Beach was a quick one. Everything you could need for the beach was available in the garage. The bikes were great to have as well. The only concern we had the entire week was the pool turned cloudy, and they were out right away to correct it! We want to come back next year!!

The perfect place to stay for your Siesta Key vacation

We enjoyed every day of our Siesta Key vacation thanks to this wonderful home! Very clean and fresh when we arrived and our teen boys loved the plate full of cupcakes that were waiting for us when we walked in the door. We used the bikes daily. There were really nice beach chairs to use as well. The pool and spa were perfect. No complaints at all! This is a great property and we hope to return again!
