Beach Getaway Steps from the Sand w/ Shared Pool, Fast WiFi & Parking

Parrot Beach Cottages Suite #1

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Experience the best of Siesta Key mere steps from sugar-white sand and emerald waters here at Parrot Beach Cottages! Suite #1 is approximately 315 square feet - a small, fully furnished, studio-style suite that's ideal for up to two people. You'll have a king-size bed, a small full kitchen, and a tiny bathroom that consists of a single sink, a toilet, and a stand-up shower (but no bathtub). Ideally located on the ground floor of the complex next to the shared swimming pool, the suite also comes with one reserved, off-street parking spot for your ease and convenience.

This studio is mere steps from one of the top white sand beaches in the world. In fact, beach access is so close, you'll hear the waves from home base! This area of the beach is a favorite for sunbathing, swimming, romantic sunset walks, small beach weddings, skim boarding, paddleboarding, kayaking, shore fishing, and much more. Fishermen catch everything from snapper and mackerel to snook and jacks. You'll be within walking distance of a number of businesses that rent all sorts of gear, from kayaks and paddleboards to bikes and video game systems. Due to how close the complex is to the beach, several rental outfitters will bring kayaks, paddleboards, and bikes right to the property and pick them up when you're done!

The studio is also within easy walking distance of Siesta Key Village, where you'll find shops, restaurants, live music, and more. Or, head into town for other local adventures, including the world-renowned Ringling Museum, the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Mote Marine, Jungle Gardens, and outdoor shopping and dining on St. Armands Circle.

Not what I expected cockroaches
Do not stay here. Save your money. After the first hour the cockroaches started coming out ( kitchen, bathroom, living space). We message the property manager and said someone would contact us. Nothing for 72 hours. Disgusting and unacceptable. We spoke with other guest from the unit and same thing. We were given 1 and 1/2 rolls of TP. When we asked for more they told us to buy our own. Stains on the comforter and pillows cases. The location was great for beach access and restroom. However the pick up and drop off at night was terrible with loud car noises. We would not recommend at all.

Great location in Siesta key
Property was an excellent location right beside the beach and plenty to do within walking distance. Perfect for a stay as a couple, plenty of space and good amenities. Fresh water outside to wash the sand off was a nice addition as well and much needed. We contacted the property management about possibly being able to enter the property about 20 minutes early and were told no, even though no one was working in or around the unit. So don't expect to be able to arrive a moment too early. My husband was feeling a little sick and just wanted to be inside and it wasn't possible, while still respecting the property management. Also, I understand leaving a unit respectfully clean when checking out, but the guidelines left for guests when checking out included basic housekeeping that should be included in the high cost paid for the cleaning fee when exiting.

Incredible location!
Location is absolutely amazing. Takes 20 seconds of walking to get to one of the nicest beaches I have experienced! My wife & I are 26 y/o celebrating our anniversary. We spent the last night on the beach looking at the stars. The unit itself could be improved. The bathroom toilet is a tight squeeze for a man, and the toilet seat was loose and had trouble flushing. The A/C is not good at all, we slept without sheets because we were very warm at night. Overall- you cannot beat this location. 3 minute walk to some incredible restaurants & the main town. They supplied plenty of towels for the beach as well!

I was a bit nervous as this was my first booking but it went well and the place was SO nice. The instructions were clear and straightforward and I was impressed by how clean it was. I will absolutely be re-booking the cottage in the future! It was so close to the beach; an overall absolute dream.

Nice place
Conveniently located close to beach and village. However the area did get busy with public beach access nearby. Cute pool with outdoor shower but was also used by local kids. Unfortunately pest control treatment was scheduled during our stay and the guests upstairs had a domestic incident. But don’t let any of this deter you from booking. That was just our experience. The unit was perfect for a long weekend stay. Cleaning and maintenance people were very helpful and pleasant

Cozy rental just steps away from the beach
Located in a quiet neighborhood. Very close to the beach and a short walk away from restaurants and shops. The kitchen was handy to have for breakfast, lunch or a quick snack. Beach towels were supplied, which was nice to have. Would definitely rent again next time we are in the area.

Amazing little place next to the beach. Short walk to center of town. Very clean. Functional, though small, kitchen. We mostly used the fridge and microwave. Very clean. Ideal spot if you plan on spending most of your time out, and want a convenient, safe, quiet space to spend the night. Not good for entertaining, but perfect as a base of operations for 1-2 people.

Quaint unit .
The location was good ,somewhat unclear as shown in photos. We were told there was a toaster available. So we brought bread ,and bagels for breakfast and were not able to use them.There was no toaster in the unit. When I contacted the manager they said , there should be one. However, when I said that I had looked, .and found none . There was no further response. Other than that , the unit was adequate . It would be nice to have some information available on local restaurants, shopping, and attractions. Also information on how to navigate the television, would have been helpful . Overall it was a pleasant stay.

Perfect location
We had a wonderful time. The place was in a perfect location. The cleanliness of the property was very good. Some ideas to pass on the dresser in the closet smelt of mildew which limited the space for clothes. The mattress and pillows could be updated. With that said still rate a 5 star for stay.

Cute Cottage
The location was wonderful-steps away from the beach and within walking distance to many bars, shops and restaurants with live music. My only complaint would be the cleanliness of the property. Main surfaces and areas such as the bed, counters and toilet were clean. However, the walls, baseboards, windows, doors, and floor definitely needed a good scrubbing and a fresh coat of paint:( Electronic key fob was broken so we had to use keys provided-kind of a pain to ensure we had it at all times and didn’t lose them. I am not nit picky by any means but for the cost I felt it should have been improved with some TLC.

We stayed here, ubered from Sarasota airport, for location! We love the pier end of the beach and special sunset flag ceremony held nightly. Walk right up to Village as well for all your dining, liquor store, and grocery. It is small, especially the bathroom, but we knew this going in. Convenient sized fridge, microwave and sink, we did not cook, we enjoyed all the groovy restaurants in the village. The only request would be to provide beach chairs, cooler & tumblers for two. We left the chairs we bought & tumblers for future guests. We brought a packable cooler. The pool was warm, we did not use, but felt the water, pretty sure it is heated. Property manager was attentive. Check out is 10am so keep that in check if you are ubering and flying home. No where to put your luggage after check out. I would stay again!
