Florida March 2024 Vacation
The house was as described in the listing. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable and cozy. The bathroom could use an update but nothing is perfect. The screened in porch of the master bedroom was a great place to relax and enjoy the warm weather. The kitchen was one of the best equipped out of any other similar places we have stayed. We loved the location/layout of the Polynesian Gardens complex. There are about 70 single story units in the location and it's like a little village all on it's own with quite small streets lined with mature trees and foliage in the complex that we strolled every morning and night. This layout from our exploration of the area was unique to the Siesta Key area. The pool area in the complex was fantastic and large. They also have pier on the channel side that was a great place to watch life go by. Some of the downsides of the area are the gulf side beach access is very limited. The closest public beach access is about a 1/2 mile or slightly more and there is very limited beach area there for public use. Siesta beach which is one of the nicest and largest beaches we have been to but is approx. 1.25 miles away. You must get to the Siesta beach early AM if you want to park. We went in March (Spring Break Time) and the traffic can be horrendous so be prepared! Overall it is a great place to stay and we would stay there again.
