Hidden Paradise on Lakefront Property Among Tropical Landscape on Siesta Key

Our RentTheKeys Siesta Heron community enjoys a proximity that is close to the heart of everything that makes Siesta Key special, and our Sand Dollar unit is another ideal example. One bedroom, one bathroom, and a spacious and open living area allows up to four guests to live together in comfort and harmony. Spend your days exploring the beauty of Siesta Key and the mainland areas of nearby Sarasota and Bradenton, located just over the bridge, and spend your night in the welcoming rooms of Sand Dollar, enjoying a vacation that reflects the beauty of Florida in every way.

A paver walkway leads to a patio just outside the front door of Sand Dollar, and as with the other units on this property, a small table and chairs offer the perfect way to enjoy your morning tea or coffee. Once inside, the laidback vibe welcomes guests, providing a living area in the open concept floor plan anchored by a comfortable sofa placed opposite a flat screen television.

Seating at the breakfast bar in the bright and cheerful kitchen gives meal time an intimate feel that will draw honeymooners closer together, and modern appliances continue to help encourage the closeness as dinners are prepared shoulder to shoulder. A coffee maker allows guests to start every day well caffeinated, and because it is a Keurig, tea drinkers and cocoa drinkers can purchase their favorite beverages and start out the day on the right foot as well.

The bedroom is a large space, offering up a romantic ambience and a neutral décor that encourages a deep sleep, while bright accent colors help along happy dreams. The king bed is cloud soft and a ceiling fan keeps the room cool as it circulates the air on a warm summer day.

The bathroom of Sand Dollar is a quiet room, offering updated fixtures and a vanity that will hold all the lotions and potions that make your bride feel beautiful. Fluffy white towels feel soft against sunburned skin because our attention to detail means we understand the aches and pains associated with too much sun.

And finally, we come to the amenity section of our tour of Sand Dollar. The community offers a quiet magic that will enhance your Siesta Key vacation and includes a community swimming pool, barbecue grills, and a deck that overlooks Heron Lagoon. The beaches of Siesta Key are in close proximity with Turtle Beach being the closest at only a mile away and the shops and restaurants that make our Florida island special are all within a 10 minute drive.

Optional:
Electric vehicle charging station available, provided by ChargePoint.

Sleeping arrangements for guests 3 and 4 are twin-size roll-a-way beds available upon request.

The pool pump was not working until the afternoon of our second day and the pool was full of leaves and looked dirty so we missed using the pool as we checked out this morning.

Closest I’ll get to Hawaii before retirement
Our stay was great. We had a lot of fun running, walking, biking to the beach. We would’ve loved to paddle board in canal in back, but the current seemed too strong the first few times we checked. Bikes were an absolute hit!!! Be sure to read the fine print- when you’re at store in town (1/2mile away) pick up roll of toilet paper. The other surrounding units were occupied and everyone was so nice and quiet. The weather was perfect. We loved that slight breeze. Uber price to airport was $38.

As advertised - clean + functional + great location!
My husband and I enjoyed a 3-night getaway to Siesta Key in February 2022. We booked last minute and could not find much available in our price range. I was honestly very hesitant to book Siesta Heron 4 because every time a customer has given any critical feedback in this forum, the response from the manager/company seems to be that this person's criticism is WRONG. My grandfather ran a successful business and always taught me, "The customer is always right". Anyway, the manager who leaves comments to people's reviews ought to check his defensiveness and be appreciative of people's honest feedback. These units are small, quiet, well equipped, and nicely appointed. The location is great. Biking to Turtle Beach was awesome! We did find that the first three bikes we tried to take one morning were in disrepair - broken chains and flat tires. We found two in working order and were on our way. We didn't swim but found the pool and outside space to be uncrowded and lovely. We would stay here again!

Cute place clean but dated
We enjoyed our stay at Siesta Heron - great quiet neighborhood- small grouping of condos which was nice - on a pretty lagoon on which we kayaked. Provided free laundry, bikes, canoes and a nice clean pool. Apartment was spacious and clean but pretty dark - other guests were pleasant and we appreciated being a little removed from the hectic scene a Siesta Beach which is VERY popular this time of year. Also enjoyed a couple small local restaurants nearby. This was our first time on Siesta Key and we loved it - will return!

Quite little place tucked away
When we arrived, we found that no management was onsite. We had to correspond through e-mail, sign an agreement and then the door code was e-mailed to us before we could enter. The door lock code would not work until exactly our check in time of 3:00p. From the photo's we imagined the deck just outside of the back door. Nope, you had to walk around in back of property to get to it. The Beach is about 1 mile away and had ample parking. We also had a hard time finding the drive way to the property after dark. Other than the shower not having any pressure, the place was nice. It is an older building that has been renovated and updated. It was clean and the fellow residents were friendly. We found it convenient to restaurant's and shops by driving 3-5 miles. It felt secure, and safe, and we would most likely stay there again. The cleaning lady was very nice on the morning we checked out, other than that, we were given most information by the few residents there by the pool. Where to eat, location of beach etc.

Just as described!
This was the perfect place for my fiancé, daughter, and myself! Everything was just as described/pictured. The paddleboards, kayaks, and canoes were AMAZING! We didn't utilize the bicycles with my daughter being little but knowing they were available made this place even sweeter. This was our first time visiting Siesta Key and will definitely consider coming back to this place if we decide to visit again in the future.

5 Day Stay at Turtle Beach
Clean property, quiet, away from the “hubbub”-in Turtle Beach area of the island- but still convenient to stores and restaurants. King size bed was nice in the bedroom, nice size closet in there and also the bathroom. Big, nice shower, Nice kitchen with nice stainless appliances, granite countertops, but sparse cooking utensils and other dishes. Limited towels in the bathroom for a week’s stay (we didn’t want to buy or bring detergent and spend time doing laundry while on vacation.) However, having laundry facilities on site for use was a nice option. Furniture looked nice, but sitting on the couch was not comfortable; it felt “broken down” and didn’t offer any support or cushion at all. We moved some furniture around and used an air mattress in the living room as a second bed instead of using the one that pulls out from the sofa since the couch so uncomfortable to sit on. While there, the smoke alarm seemed to super sensitive and would be set off anytime the oven or stove was turned on, even to be warmed up, before even beginning to cook…even cooking eggs on the stove would set it off. It was quite the nuisance. The pool was fantastic to cool off in at the end of the day after coming in from the beach. My cousin and I usually had it all to ourselves. It was fantastic! There is a trolley stop literally across the street from the property. Overall, a nicely appointed and clean property, but would be nice to have more towels throughout the week for the kitchen and bathroom to use and more options for utensils and other dishes in the kitchen as well. And perhaps update the couch to something more comfortable and sturdy.

Quiet Retreat
We were very pleased with the quiet area that the villa was in. The villa was just the right size for the two of us. Everything was updated and clean. The kitchen could have used a can opener and grill utensils. It had a Keirug coffee maker. The pool was very nice and clean. There were two gas grills for the seven villas to use, but only one worked. We used the grill several times. Appreciated the laundry facilities . Plenty of new/large washer and dryers There were bikes, canoes, paddle boards and beach chairs for anyone to use.

As advertised, a clean and efficient villa on Siesta Key. The kitchen was nicely appointed with everything to cook a few hot meals. The laundry machines and bikes were much appreciated. I had a bit of trouble getting the door to lock properly, disappointed that the rental agency never replied when I left a weekend voice message asking for assistance.

Perfect lagoon hideaway!
We absolutely loved our stay at this cute little cottage community. Perfect location. The lagoon was beautiful, and we loved the kayaks! The unit was exactly as pictured and had everything we needed and plenty of space! There is a dehumidifier in the unit also which was great. The air felt fresh and crisp! We couldn’t be happier with our stay here. Such a great value for the price! Thank you for a wonderful vacation.
