The Beach
Our beach is the widest, has panoramic views of the gulf to the North-West-and-South, and is the top spot in North America for sunsets. You can swim or wade to Sand Dollar Island, a naturally occurring white sand cay popular with dolphin sand-dollars and “occasionally” manatee and giant-conch. The water is shallow clear and calm with white quartz-sand tide-pools perfect for sleeping drinking or playing. You can go from the water to lunch or dinner and back to the sand without putting on your shoes.

The Home
You work hard and deserve a getaway. This apartment is ground floor with a queen bed, full kitchen with fold-down table for two, and bathroom with step-in shower. Your patio is private and has chaise loungers, bistro dining table, propane grill, and is on a quiet gated courtyard. Perfect for enjoying a quiet cup of coffee, good book, cocktail(s), or an al-fresco meal. It's a few a steps off the patio into the heart of the Village and the best fresh oysters, seafood, tropical drinks, ice cream, entertainment, and even gourmet donuts on the island.

History
“Life is a string of pearls where you never know how many you have left.” - GVLJ. Gertrude Rentals was named for my grandmother “Gertrude” who traveled the world until age 91 but always insisted Siesta Key was the place she loved best. When I was young, she would take me to the beach and swim out so far, I couldn't see her yellow flowered bathing cap even while standing on a chair! Today, you can laze float and wade in the same white quartz sand and calm crystal-clear gulf water she once did.

Wonderful stay at Siesta Key
The owner sent clear communications regarding the property prior to my trip. The studio was clean and ready when I arrived. I couldn't have asked for a better location. This studio was literally only a minute or 2 from restaurants. The beach was super close as well. I will definitely stay again!

Perfect location
The property's location was perfect and close to everything in Siesta Key. If you are looking for somewhere just to lay your head, this is the place. However, both me and my spouse found the bed and pillows very uncomfortable to the point that I slept with a towel under my head and not the pillow on the 2nd and 3rd night because it caused me neck pain after the first night. The patio area looks nicer in the pictures than in person. The unit was clean and convenient.
