This property is ideal for a quick, inexpensive get-away. It’s located just across from public beach access #9. They provide you with a wagon, chairs and umbrella. The pool area is nice and shaded with several places to lounge. It’s a short 10 minute or less walk to Siesta Key village which has several dining and drinking options as well as groceries and shopping. This is not a 5 star resort, so if you’re looking for a place to lay your head that’s convenient and affordable, this is a great option.

Top location across the road from Beach Access #9 and an easy walk to Siesta Key Village for all the shopping and dining options without having to worry about parking or driving. The property was lovely too. Lots of room to spread out with two bedrooms, two bathrooms a large lounge/dining area and kitchen with everything you need. It also had a small outdoor area with table which was nice to sit and have breakfast or a pre-dinner drink. It was nicely supplied with added extras like a buggy to put your beach things in and beach chairs and even a little cooler. Those added thoughtful extras are a nice bonus. The communication was also extremely good and we were easily able to check in and out. Truly a great find.

We loved the old Florida charm mixed with upgraded modern conveniences. The pool area was amazing! The only thing that could use an upgrade was the platform bed(very squeaky) and the pillows. Some laundry available would make this place a viable long term stay option. The management was awesome and extremely helpful.

I am a few weeks late but I stayed at the Ringling Beach House during the week of 1-15-24 through 1-19-24. This is the most amazing place to stay and take in the beach. Public Beach Access is right across the street with the actual Beach being less than a 7 minute walk! Everything is perfect about this place, right across from the water, beautiful inside the condo, and Roberto was very attentive and communicated very Well. If ever in the area, this will definitely be my go to spot! I loved my stay at The Ringling Beach House.

We stayed in the Villa and what a great place! Needs a tiny bit of TLC but nothing to be upset over! It was clean and so cute!! We had 8 people and it was more than comfortable. Beautiful backyard area with a pool. The hot tub wasn’t a hot tub but just part of the pool but still perfect. Those are really my only two minor complaints is that should be a hot tub but clearly isn’t heated and just a few minor cosmetic things inside the house. We would definitely stay here again! Short 8 minute walk to the beach and about 10-12 min walk to the village. Felt very safe and comfortable. Guy was there upon our arrival and showed us everything and he was easily accessible via text if needed!! Thank you for a great stay!

Nice little property. A bit older but still very nice. The pictures don’t do the pool justice! The pool was a nice relaxing area! Our room was right out by the pool and we loved it! Sat out on loungers till almost 11pm just enjoying the night. Could use a propane fire pit to complete the area!

Great Family Vacation
We spent 5 nights in the Clown Room. It was plenty spacious for our party of 5. There were two bedrooms and a pull out couch. We didn't cook but there wee dishes, cups etc. It was very clean. The property is right across the beach from the beach access entrance. The beach is amazing! It was about an 8 minute walk to Siesta Village where there are restaurants, shops, coffee shops etc. The property does provide wagons to take your belongings to the beach. It also has beach chairs and umbrellas. The chairs are not in great condition and can use replacing. Susan (I think that was her name) was so nice and helpful. She is on property most of the day and is super helpful for whatever you may need.

Response from Luca T on Jun 5, 2023
Dear DebraYour bad review fully reflects the way you behaved when you arrived at our fantastic locationIt's been 5 months but I remember perfectly that you didn't want to speak to any of the staff.You made a last minute reservation and immediately called expedia when you arrived to request a refund The apartment assigned to you was in order, ready for your check-in.You refused to speak to our manager who was on site and you ran away without any explanation.We can accept that you don't like our location but I don't think it's correct to refuse to talk and immediately ask for a refund. We work well with Expedia and we comply with the rules that each type of booking imposes to customer and the host.I inform you that despite your bad review we will continue to commit ourselves and do everything to make the stay of all customers who choose the Ringling beach House exciting.We are professionals and the excellent reviews of our guests fully demonstrate itbest regards

This property is a consumer best buy in terms of options in the key. Being able to walk across the road to the beach access, especially when you have young kids, can’t be beat. It’s also beautiful inside with loads of amenities, and the staff is so pleasant. The street facing apartment is a little loud at night (not something they can control, of course), but the trade off for the extra beach time we got without the hassle of parking was well worth it. Plus the pool is delightful (although by day 2 of our stay it could have used a cleaning - not all guests were showering before entering and so the pool was getting full of sand and sunscreen). Super comfortable beds!

I found myself in need of a place to stay in Sarasota, and the Ringling Beach House came through, with little notice. The Beach House property manager, Roberto, contacted me to ensure arrival time, as travel issues caused a delay. I was grateful to receive instructions and information, as I wasn't sure when I would arrive and was a bit stressed. Roberto wrote via text, and we also spoke by phone so that I would feel more comfortable with trip and beach house details. Upon arrival, I was able to immediately relax and enjoy my comfortable room, with all amenities. The room was clean, and I had everything I needed, even including a welcome basket. The location was perfect, as it was about halfway between Siesta Key Beach and the shopping/restaurant village. The Beach House is also across from a public beach access, and they provide all you need to enjoy the beach such as umbrellas, beach chairs, and a beach cart to easily take everything to the beach. We're looking forward to coming back for more relaxing time on Siesta Key.

Our accommodations were super clean and comfortable, the beach amenities supplied for our use were awesome we very much enjoyed them, the kids played with the sand toys while adults lounged on the sand mat and beach chairs. The pool was clean and also a great place to hang out and enjoy the afternoon. The manager was super friendly and lots of fun to interact with.
