Staying here provided us with the best trip we have had in Siesta to date!!! Located within a minutes walk from beach 11 or downtown, this place can’t be beat! Added bonus were the provided bikes and the option to rent the 6 seater Cadillac Cart. Between our feet, the bike seats and the Caddy wheels, the kids and adults could roam freely to wherever our hearts desired. The house alone provides you with an entire day full of fun! We fished off the dock, enjoyed scenic canoe trips down the canal, grilled up many meals on the spacious patio, jumped in the refreshing heated pool like it was our job, and soaked it all in while star gazing in the hammock at night. Although I have never met Jim, he made sure to take care of us like family. We will be back!!!

Great family fun trip!

We had an amazing time at Sophie’s Cottage. We lucked out and got a renovated home due to the Hurricanes. The proximity to the beach and town are great. Short bike ride to both. Jim, the owner, helped us immediately with any issues. Our kids caught snappers, catfish, jacks, sting rays and needle fish off of the dock of the home. Great time, great home, great location!!!

True Siesta Key Charm

Our stay at Sophie’s Cottage was perfect. The home is spacious and well equipped. The outdoor living area provided extra space to enjoy and entertain. The heated pool, patio and kayaks were put to great use! The house is on a quiet street with close access to the beach and village. Jim was extremely kind and responsive. We will definitely stay at Sophie’s Cottage again!

100% Recommend!

Hands down one of the cleanest rentals we stayed in! Sophie’s Cottage was the perfect size for our family of 4 adults and 2 kids (11 & 13). The canal kept my boys busy with fishing and kayaking, while we were able to enjoy the nice pool right there beside them. The bikes were great for a morning stroll or to ride up to the village. This was the first time my family flew to a beach vacation and we had everything we needed. Jim, the owner, is very accommodating and communication is top notch! Siesta Key Beach was beautiful, and plenty of beach space! Highly recommend Sophie’s Cottage!

We love this place!!

The house had just been completely renovated due to the recent hurricane damage. Jim did an excellent job with everything to make sure our stay was top-notch. All the furnishings and appliances were brand new. We took the bikes out every day to Siesta Key Beach, which was just down the street. Absolutely amazing, and it took under 5 minutes! The rental location is very close (less than 1 mile) to fun restaurants in Siesta Key Village, with lot's of great bars and shopping. This place has it all! Pool, privacy, and perfect location, right down the street from the best beach in the USA, with all the amenities that you need. We will definitely come back! - Wendy & Chris

Cozy canal location-short bike ride to so much Siesta Key has to offer!

This canal side cottage was a perfect retreat for busy people like us! Two weeks in June - perfect! It's super close to the Siesta Key Village, in fact we enjoyed riding up on the bikes they provided, hopping in for a few groceries and riding back, or riding up for dinner and music! We also rode up for the sunset ceremony at the pier. It is close, but not too close! The street was quiet, and we slept well! Nice beds/bedding, plenty of towels and such. The great surprise is that the road from the cottage to the beach lines up to a perfect beach access spot (Beach Access 11) which is nestled between two busier beach access areas, providing an oasis with much fewer tents and people and a lovely wide open view of amazing sand and gorgeous water. We appreciated the chairs and wagon for toting beach gear since we flew down! We greatly enjoyed using the kayaks provided throughout the canal and spotted manatee and interesting fish and birds while seeing the beautiful homes on the canal from the water. The cottage looks just like the pictures, the pool is so nice apres beach! Also, at night it was a delight to float under the stars. The kitchen is bright and overlooks the pool and has plenty for the chef to work with, we loved picking up fresh fish and searing up delicious meals to eat by the pool. The owner and team were very responsive and provided excellent communication. We felt nestled, supported, and had a wonderful time! We highly recommend this Siesta Key cottage!

Perfect stay on the canal in Siesta Key

We had a wonderful week at Sophie's Cottage. It is a very comfortable, cozy and clean 2BR 2BA cottage that is a short walk or bike ride to the beach (3-4 bikes included with rental!). And upon your return you can lounge in the private backyard or enjoy swimming in the beautiful pool or kayaking / paddleboarding in the canal off your own dock (kayaks and boards included!). A special shout-out to the friendly folks at Cottage on the Key, who made our entire rental experience so pleasant and effortless, and provided us with a special welcome gift (gourmet cupcakes!). We definitely plan to return to Sophie's Cottage as soon as possible!

Our stay in Siesta Key was amazing!! This property was the perfect home base for our month away. The walk to Siesta Key Beach was doable but if wanting to drive, there was plenty of parking at the beach. There were beach toys, towels and chairs to use. The house had everything needed, updated and beautifully decorated. The beds were comfortable with quality bedding. We loved being so close to Siesta Key Village for dinners and shopping, yet the neighborhood was quiet at night. The highlight was the back yard! The pool, chairs, kayaks, fishing off the dock and all of the little extras were remarkable!! We loved the bikes that were provided too! Jim was on top of everything and we appreciated his eagerness to respond and help with whatever came up. You can't go wrong booking this beautiful home, it was wonderful!
