Across The Street From #1 Beach

The Siesta Key Beach Cottage is located right on Beach Rd directly across the street from the #1 Beach in the USA. Walk out the front door and walk across the street to beach access #7 and you are on the white powder Beach of Siesta Key. You can look out the front window and see the Beach Access #7 sign.

If your looking for some lunch after a day at the beach walk out the front door of The Siesta Key Beach Cottage and head right up to the Village. There you will find any type of food you can imagine. If the sun has made you thirsty there are plenty of options to grab your favorite cocktail while listening to live music while sitting outside.

Take the beach cruiser bikes provided at the Beach Cottage and bike down to the north end of the beach. There you will reach an old concrete pier you can walk out on and watch sunset. Beach Cruisers are the best way to get around. Park the car and throw away the keys. Walk or bike around the Key........leave the car at the Beach Cottage!!!!

Cottage Remodeled in 2011-
The Siesta Key Beach Cottage was completely remodeled in 2011. Everything inside was replaced with new.....everything. The back pavered deck is enclosed by a wood fence. Inside has white washed painted cypress walls and ceiling. Hardwood floors were installed throughout. All new windows. All kitchen appliances we replaced. Granite counter . Bathroom had tile floor, enclosed glass shower with tile wall and floor, and sink. The walls and ceiling are cypress through out the whole cottage. Pottery Barn California King bed and mattress. Two flat screen TV's were installed. This Beach Cottage renovation still kept the nautical decor and design and conserved that beachy laid back feeling to it.
This is not a condo........it is a Beach Cottage!!!!!

Check out our other property ID #964225 only a couple buildings away. This cottage we purchased in 2019 and did a complete renovation. Everything is new throughout the whole cottage.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and a stovetop. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave, and housekeeping is provided on request.
This smoke-free cottage features books, a playground, and ecotours nearby. Recreational activities include snorkeling nearby, surfing/body boarding nearby, and sailing nearby.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Perfect Beachside Cottage with All the Comforts
My husband and I stayed at this cottage for a week, and it was incredible! The cottage is fully equipped with everything you might need. The shower had excellent water pressure, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The location is just steps away from the beach and the local village, which has a coffee shop, grocery store, ice cream parlor, and numerous restaurants. Even when it rained, as it often does in Florida, it was so soothing to listen to the rain from inside the cottage. We would return in a heartbeat. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place!

This was an absolutely lovely cottage. Impeccably clean and retro chic beach decor. The bed was very comfortable. There was excellent communication with the host. It is a 6 minute walk to the beach, via beach access #7. There is a free trolley that goes from Turtle Beach on Midnight Pass Road through to Siesta Key Village on Ocean Road. Siesta Key Village is close enough to walk. Parking can be a challenge in the village, so we left our vehicle in cottage driveway and either walked or took trolley. There is an outdoor shower to rinse off beach sand. There are two bicycles there, which unfortunately we did not have time to take advantage of. This was a VERY enjoyable stay because the cottage was cosy and we felt right at home and convenient to almost everything. If we return to this area, we would definitely stay at this location again if it is available. Thank you, Dave, for everything. We appreciated it sincerely.

Amazing Beach Cottage
The cottage was everything that was shown and even more! It had everything we could need and it was steps away from Beach Access #7. We loved the outside patio area and the shower. It was a 5-7 minute walk to Siesta Key Village and some really good restaurants. Also a great coffee shop. It was everything we hoped for and more! We definitely want to make a return trip!!

The CUTEST little place to stay in Siesta Key!
Super clean and very easy access to the property with details from my Host. My host was also incredibly friendly and helpful giving me tips at local places to do things and local places to eat! There is also multiple beach accesses very close nearby. I loved being able to bring my dog Lola with me and it was perfect for the two of us! Thank you so much, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

Perfect getaway!
This is the perfect cottage for a couple’s getaway! It was one of the cleanest places we’ve ever rented. It is so tastefully decorated and had everything we needed for our stay. It’s right across from the beach access and only a 4 minute walk to Siesta Key village. There were also bikes available at the cottage which we used every day. Dave was a great host and we highly recommend staying at this cottage. We can’t wait to go back!

Nice cottage in great location
Right across the street from Beach 7 and only two blocks from all the shops and restaurants. The cottage was very nice, extremely clean (didn't see a single bug, which is rare in FL), and comfortable for the two of us. We made good use of the available beach chairs, umbrella, and bikes, and appreciated the outside shower to clean off after beach outings. Owner was very responsive. You'll need to take quarters for the laundry (we couldn't get the app to work). A bit of road noise, primarily on the weekend, since it's along a main thoroughfare.

Perfect Location to Beach & Nightlife. Adorable Cottage
Adorable cottage decorated so cute. Has all amenities for a couple. Is private, but right across the street from beach. Only a couple blocks from Siesta Village for restaurants and bands. Property manager was very helpful with suggestions and responsive to needs. Only issue we had was attached neighbor had dogs that barked all night which is not anyones' fault.

Great location.
We had a wonderful stay in this comfortable cabin right across the street from one of the beach entrances (the beach entrance leads down a 100-yard path to great beach.) The fun downtown area of Siesta Key is short walk down the same street. The house has everything you need with nice supplies provided by the owner and even beach chairs and bikes. The owner was also easy to communicate with by text or phone. You may note that the laundry is coin-op in another building (I didn’t read the details and thought it was in the unit.) We really enjoyed the stay.

The cottage is perfectly situated a short walk from Siesta village but far enough away from the noise across the street from #7 Beach access . The beach house decor is well done and creates a relaxing vibe. Everything you need is there including bikes and beach chairs. Great private outdoor sitting area and very clean .

A Gem of a Place!
This was our second time staying here and most of the time we would be outside at the beach, walking downtown, or sitting on the patio which is all great and wonderful. Unfortunately we had one day of full rain and wind so we were inside most of the day. The unit is decorated and styled nicely and very comfortable, a suggestion for those types of days .. would be to have a chair with a reading lamp beside it. Please don’t take me wrong with that suggestion as it’s a 10 out of 10 place to stay and the manager is extremely helpful and kind! May the sun shine on your stays!
