Beach escape
Great location short ride to beach when traffic was low. Loved the ice cream and health food market in walking distance. Lots other restaurants in close proximity. Beds were OK. Shower is not for tall people. My only critique is some dishware that's not plastic for microwave, and more adult sized utensils.

It was nice. But pricy fir what you get.
I enjoyed the stay. However there was a rare cold spell. The heater did not keep up. Perhaps they could have been proactive with providing blankets. Again. I understand it was a rare cold spell, but maybe supply some things to make it comfortable

Pillows and heat
We all loved staying at the tiny house. Since it was the coldest Christmas in 30 years, we needed heat! I had to call the property manager to get help turning it on. She answered her phone on the 2nd ring and told us how to do it. Yay! PILLOWS! I normally travel with my own. I didn't this time and regret not doing so this time. ONLY ONE PER PERSON, AND THEY WERE FLAT. Got very little sleep. Same for my husband and son. Other that that, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Not good for older patrons. But it worked for our situation, hurricane relief.

Really fun great trip
The Red Lifeguard house was really fun. we are a family of four and we had a ball staying here. Basic but very comfortable. Siesta Key beach is quite close, not quite walkable but bikes are perfect as the parking is tough. The place is in excellent condition. it's very new and very well made and maintained. Jody, the onsite manager is terrific, checking in on what we needed and making sure our stay was perfect. This is a great, different way to do a vacation. We highly reccomend it.

Everything was great! My boys loved the unique experience and it will be talked about for years!
The owner and property manager were awesome! We had such a fun time. The property was clean and included everything we needed. An outdoor grill would have been nice, but the owner talked about upgrading each unit to include a grill. I would recommend this experience to anyone!

Great experience! Me and my family had a wonderful vacation.
It was a first for us to stay at a tiny house and I'm glad we did it. The house itself might look tiny but there is lots of room inside, location is good close to grocery stores and restaurants the beach is about 5 min drive if there is no traffic on the draw bridge. The house is extremely CLEAN and NEW. We stayed 3 days with 2 kids and it was a great experience. My wife she usually doesn't like small spaces but after seeing this house she fell in love with it. I would definitely recommend to everyone to try it. And I can't write this review without talking about the manager Jody, this guy went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we need and we are comfortable. Our family appreciates his hospitality.

My husband and I were celebrating our 2nd Anniversary and this tiny home was exactly what we're looking for! Clean with everything you could need, except a coffee maker! We will for sure be returning next year!

Great alternative to a hotel
Close enough to the beach to bike, clean, and sure beats the heck out of a hotel

My friend and I had a great time in this tiny house ! I has everything you need and we were very comfortable... everything was very clean and the decor was so appropriate. We enjoyed the beach, walking to shops and various restaurants. Downtown Sarasota is also a lovely place to explore. Siesta key beach village is a great place to hang out and is very lively often times with live entertainment. Longboat key and Saint Armand's Circle are another one of our favorites. Jody, The on-site manager was most helpful! I will be back the next time I visit the areaI would highly recommend this property if you want convenience, comfort and peace !
