Siesta 4 Rent

We did a weekly Rental at 1034 Crescent St. It’s a 4 bd. 3 bath home wirh a private pool and a 3min. Walk to the beach. it has a updated kitchen new appliances there are 2 bedrm on each side of the house with 2 master bdrms. It was a wonderful week the white Sandy beaches and aqua blue waters with the grandchildren. this home is on the quieter side of of the Island perfect for young families The Rental Company was very accommodating

We have rented the Calle Miramar for the past 6 years for Thanksgiving, 4 years from the original private owner (which was absolutely wonderful) and then the last 2 years from Siesta 4 rent and we are so sad but we will not be back!!! The location is awesome and the size of the condo was perfect for us but the new rental company (Siesta 4 rent) is awful!
Our last visit — As soon as we walked in to the unit 3 of the smoke alarms were beeping so we spent about an hour trying to figure them out. It made us wonder when the last time anyone had been in the unit… Then the next day we went to use the grill and it was a mess and when we told them about it their response was we don’t clean grills so we will just come by and throw it out. WOW! Really! Then when we asked about where the recycle bins were they said they got rid of them because people put garbage in them. So lazy is all I kept thinking! They charge enough for cleaning, use the money to hire a cleaning crew! The closets only had a few towels (way less than we had in the past). The drawers in the bathroom and bedrooms were so dirty I had to wipe them out before we could put our clothes in them. Oh and then the pool and patios they were a mess (dirt, dead bugs, spider webs, gross pool water) and again we were told that they don’t mess with that. Finally, I had to bleach my kids socks when we got home because the floors and carpets were sooooo dirty!
I am not OCD! I don’t expect to go on vacation and change smoke alarm batteries and clean the place before we can settle in and have fun! All our complaints were met with we don’t bother with that, too much work, what ever! The last straw was when we were told to go rent a more expensive condo by the repair guy if we wanted things to be clean. WOW! I don’t understand why they would take on property that they didn’t want to care for. I miss the previous owners in a major way. Our Thanksgiving tradition is done! So sad!

We’ve rented from siesta 4 rent for 12 years, sent numerous friends and neighbors to them, but that ends after this stay. Rude, unprofessional, defensive office staff, completely inflexible and unwilling to be cordial and work with their guests. I certainly understand that they are bound by agreements with property owners, but a smile, friendly explanation of why things are a certain way, and a willingness to listen would go a long way rather than a repetition of «it’s on our website» and «it’s policy». I will never rent from them again, and will encourage friends to look elsewhere as well. I certainly wouldn’t want this unfriendly staff representing my property.

We just returned home from a 3 week stay at a Siesta 4 Rent property at Our House on the Beach C119. I am giving this review 3 stars because Siesta 4 Rent was very responsive to the issues we had with the property, but in my opinion, this condo should NEVER HAVE BEEN RENTED in the state we found it.
The unit had a stale, musty smell. The carpets were filthy; there were black paths on the carpets in traffic areas. The screen door to the deck had a fist sized hole in it, and some of the blankets and linens had a damp, tacky feel to them. The tile floors looked like they hadn’t had a good cleaning in a long time.
We reported all this to Siesta4Rent and that very day, someone came and took all the bedding & linens away to wash them, a man arrived with a new screen door, and a carpet cleaning service came and cleaned all the carpets. A maid came by to clean again. I’ve never seen such a quick response from an agent.
As for the unit itself, it is OLD and OUTDATED. The thermostat is the same kind I had in my house in 1985 and it was impossible to adjust the AC properly. It was either hot or freezing. A digital unit costs $ 40 — buy one.
The leather furniture in the living room was very old and the springs on it were gone. The wall units were formica from the 70’s (and not anchored to the wall). the TVs were tiny, maybe 27″. The kitchen appliances were 15 – 25 years old and the formica cabinets were old and looked dirty. The dryer was rusting on the outside. The headboards to the twin beds in the guest room were simply leaning against the wall and not attached to the bed frames.
In the bathrooms, the calking around the tubs was cracked. There was great water pressure, but that resulted in a flood on the floor despite all our efforts; we were washing wet towels every other day. Plus, the tub/​toilet «cubicle» is in the closet, a very odd design.
I went out and spent about $ 30 on cleaning supplies and Febreeze. We washed all the sliding glass doors because you couldn’t see through them. I had to scrub all the deck chairs before we could sit on them. I tried to vacuum one day but the vacuum cleaner would not even pick up sand off the tile floor.
This would be a great rental if it were updated. It has a good layout, plenty of room, new furniture in the master, a garage, a nice pool area with a covered pavilion with a grill. And it was a 5 minute walk to the beach.
The pictures on the website looked nice, but this place was advertised as a «luxury condo», and it was… in 1985. It needs a huge overhaul.

I just returned from a vacation where we used Siesta 4 Rent. The home we rented was gorgeous and actually the pictures on the Siesta 4 Rent site don’t do it justice. The home was very clean (I’m a weirdo about bathrooms and they were all immaculate). The sheets and towels were all in place and clean as well. We had no issues with the rental /​keys /​policies. All in all, a great experience and I’d definitely rent from Siesta 4 Rent again!

My husband and I have rented from Siesta 4 Rent in the past, but are now reluctant to due to their pet policy. They require a $ 200 nonrefundable fee, should you stay in a pet friendly unit. I would understand if the $ 200 was a deposit and then refunded after your stay (should your pet not cause any damage), but since it is not and a cleaning fee is already factored in to your stay, we feel $ 200 is a bit much. Now we have always enjoyed renting from Siesta 4 Rent in the past, but since our dog travels a lot with us, it is this one policy that holds us back.

We have had Siesta 4 Rent manage and rent our home on Siesta Key for the past 5 years. We have been very satisfied as an owner with the services of Siesta 4 Rent. Generally Siesta 4 Rent has done an excellent job of renting our 3 bdrm 2 bath pool home near Crescent beach.
The only complaint we have is with the cleaning crew responsible for cleaning and restoring the home for the next tenant after vacancy. They seem to regularly miss stains on the carpeting and dirt and debris left by tenants behind furniture and in cabinets. When my wife and I show up after a rental we often find things the cleaning folks have missed.
