The property was beautiful and very well stocked. From kitchen supplies, sheets, towels, tons of beach supplies including a wagon and cooler, pool toys, beach towels...you name it! The lanai was huge! My son fished in the canal everyday and caught a ton of fish. We saw a dolphin, several manatee and even an alligator! The alligator, I was told by neighbors was a rare sighting...thank goodness! We were able to log into all our subscribed channels on the tv from home to watch our shows in the evening. It was a short 10 minute walk to the main beach on Siesta Key. Miss it soo much already!The only negatives were that the hot tub was not operational during our stay. Someone came out quickly to look at it, but it was never fixed. The fire pit was broke, as well. Minor things considering how hot it was, but still.We would absolutely consider staying here again! Thank you! ##### Wendy B.
