About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Island House Beach Resort 1S

Under new ownership, this exceptional unit has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout. All-new premium windows and doors invite the beautiful Siesta Key “beach feel” indoors, while the brand-new, heavily insulated exterior lanai enclosure allows the interior sliding doors to be removed—creating a wide-open, airy layout that feels as though the Gulf breeze is drifting right into your living space. Enjoy the soothing sound of the surf day or night, just steps from the sand.

A brand-new HVAC system provides reliable comfort around the clock. This apartment is uniquely positioned with no shared common walls, offering rare sound privacy. You’ll also enjoy two close, easy-access VIP parking spaces.

Forget the hassle—this ground-floor unit requires no stairs, no elevator, and no FOB for entry, ensuring effortless access for groceries, luggage, and everyday convenience. A free washer and dryer are located just a few steps from the front door.

Inside, this beautifully appointed 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo features a spacious primary ensuite with a king-size bed, a guest bedroom with two twin beds, and a sleeper sofa in the living area. The home offers a large living room, dedicated dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen with full-size appliances and granite countertops. You’ll also find three large flat-screen televisions and central heating and air conditioning for year-round comfort.

Step onto the lanai and take in the gorgeous views of the Gulf of Mexico—truly spectacular scenery with magnificent nightly sunsets you’ll never forget.


Island House Beach Resort boasts a range of attractive features including:

*A scenic beachfront courtyard with shuffleboard, cornhole, gas grills, and shaded seating areas—ideal for enjoying Siesta Key’s famous spectacular sunsets
*2 beach cabanas and beach chairs for your convenience
*A large, heated swimming pool
*A recreation room with ping pong, air hockey and other games

Hop on the Siesta Key Trolley to visit the vibrant Siesta Village offering a plethora of dining and shopping options.
Feeling adventurous? Explore nearby Myakka River State Park, rent a bicycle to tour the island, or kayak and paddleboard through the mangroves and the newly reopened Midnight Pass on the south end of Siesta Key. Explore nearby Sarasota for its golf courses, gardens, museums, and World Renowned Mote Marine Aquarium. With Tampa Bay just an hour away and Disney World and other Orlando attractions a quick 2.5-hour drive, you have the perfect base for a memorable vacation.

Pack your bags and let Island House Beach Resort make your stay unforgettable!

We look forward to welcoming you to Island House Beach Resort—your perfect getaway on Siesta Key!

Island house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: While we LOVE the staff, location of the complex and location of this unit, it is tired. We’ve been staying here for 5 years, so we know what we’re talking about. There have been some appliances updates, but it’s time to update the rest!

Great views but very dirty and poorly managed apartment

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unfortunately, this is the first year at island house after 15 years of going to another complex. We came to celebrate our son’s 1st birthday. Upon arrival, we instantly noticed the dust pile on all the furniture, including in the rooms, and fans. The master bedroom had mold surrounding the air vent and a huge black spot on the ceiling. The rooms also had carpets which contained a plethora of sand. The sliding glass door to access the beach was completely broken. This was a huge hassle for the family. We called maintenance and all they did was put WD-40 which lasted a few open and closing of the door. After the first night, we all woke up with runny noses. The inside of the window in the master bedroom was completely cracked and raised concerns for safety. WIm de We will not be returning as we did not enjoy our stay. For the price of the unit, this is NOT worth it. We tried to advise the property manager upon check out but was advised they were not there. We are also sending the property manager the pictures of the condition of the unit. Kindly forward this to the unit owners and make them aware of these conditions.

Reviewer Comments: We always make the best of our stay. We have been going to 1s for the last 10 years. We love Siesta key. But the unit is a real dump, so many things wrong and the owner does not care to up grade! Electric outlets in master do not work, floor slopes. Tiles need to replaced. Wallpaper in bath is peeling off toilet not flushing right, mold on ceiling. Fan in twin bedroom needs to be fixed. Only good thing is the location.

Island House a Family Favorite for 40 Years!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family has been staying at Island House since the 70's and we absolutely love it. The units vary in upkeep, but typically we have no major issues. 1S is a great unit with awesome views and beach access. It is in need of remodeling, but heard that is already scheduled. The unit is a little different as one bedroom doesn't have an adjoing bathroomm, but no huge issue.

Great location- Need renovation!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this apartment couldn't be better! We love Siesta Key and being able to have such a wonderful view and proximity to the beach, is definitely priceless!I didn't have any problem with Property Management. I just asked a few questions and they responded right away. Now, the apartment needs major renovation! The back doors wouldn't lock, the blinds were not in good shape, some outlets were not working, bulbs needed to be changed, etc. The carpet in the rooms were not my favorite.Overall, the experience was great because we had a blast in our vacation, but I would have definitely preferred to stay on a place a little more updated and better taken care of.

The unit itself need some updating. The carpeting in the bedrooms needs to be replaced with tiles. The hall bathroom needs upgrades. Not enough wine glasses!!! All of this can be overlooked just by sitting on the lanai and looking at the view. We will be back!

Location Location Location.

The sunsets/beach views - as well as the location of this property are flawless. You have direct access to the beach - after walking out your back door - you are on the beach. The property complex is remarkably maintained - but this unit itself has some cosmetic issues. When I rented this unit - I rented it because of its location. The unit is directly on the beach and close to numerous excellent restaurants. I would stay at this unit again.
