About this property

Siesta Villa, Pool and Dock. *No Storm Damage*

The Property
Drive along the tree-lined streets of Polynesian Gardens to your own Siesta Key villa escape. Siesta Villa Whispering Palms is a delightfully comfortable stand-alone villa in one of Siesta Key's most desirable communities. Polynesian Gardens is a quiet community, comprised of 70 charming villas with tree-lined streets, lush tropical landscapes, a large community pool and access to the intercoastal waterway.

Siesta Villa Whispering Palms is pleasantly spacious, with a large open floor plan of the common areas, 3 luscious bedrooms, 2 recently renovated bathrooms, and a fully enclosed/air continued sunroom (very rare for Siesta Key). The Property features a large galley kitchen with high-end appliances and is fully stocked with all of your cooking needs. Accompanying the kitchen is two dining areas with a formal dining area towards the front of the property for 6, and an informal breakfast nook for 4. The living room in the middle of the home features a comfortable seating for 5 and a large 65” television. Walk-out the sliding glass door in the living room or master bathroom to the enclosed sunroom, which features seating for 5, a pull-out couch, and a television. We love to read a book in this room.

The master bedroom is located in the back of the property, with a king-size bed and plush bedding. The master ensuite is a full-size bathroom with a step-less shower, and grab bars, perfect for those with mobility issues.
There are two guest bedrooms, one with a King bed in the front of the house, and a queen bedroom in the middle of the house. Located in between the 2 bedrooms is the guest bathroom that also features a step-less shower. All the bedrooms in the property feature TV's, perfect for those days when you do not feel like leaving the house.

The fully enclosed backyard of the property is sunny most of the day, which is great for sunbathing, or cooking out on the grill and enjoying a fire in the chimenea at dusk.
The Siesta Villa Whispering Palms is a great property for those who are looking for a great home base for all your Siesta Key activities but also want a property that you can also lazy around all day-in.

Located within the private community of Polynesian Gardens, Siesta Villa Whispering Palms is a private standalone villa on the Inter-Coastal Waterway side of the island. Polynesian Gardens is a quiet community that features shady streets, a large well-kept pool, clubhouse, and private dock. Siesta Villa Whispering Palms is steps away from the private Polynesian Gardens Dock, allowing easy access for you to spend the day fishing or watching the sunset.

Siesta Palms

Siesta Palms was very comfortable with plenty of room for us and children & grandchildren when they visited. Great location - we liked being able to walk to the restaurants and shops past the Stickney Point Bridge. Polynesian Gardens is a lovely complex and we look forward to staying there again next year.

Lovely Villa

Lovely Villa with lovely surroundings. Everything was clean and tidy, the communication with the company was great, the pool was gorgeous and it's right down the street from Siesta Key Beach. We really enjoyed our stay and will hopefully be able to come back again someday!

Another wonderful stay in siesta key

My husband and I enjoyed our month long stay in Siesta key. Our daughter and 2 grandchildren joined us for 12 days. Beautiful memories were made. The property was well equipped with everything we needed for a great stay. 3 bedrooms was nice and gave us all plenty of space. My only dissatisfaction was that it was a bit of a walk to the beach, especially with young children. We found ourselves having to drive to public access. The pier was very nice on property but was often occupied and filled with the locals who gathered there at regular intervals. So that made it a bit difficult to enjoy the pier on the inlet. Over all we had a great stay. Coming in March you need to know that the island is very crowded with traffic and tourists. Communication with host was quick and prompt. He was very helpful with any matter that we had. Over all a great trip!

Spring Break

The Polynesian Gardens was a terrific bungalow neighborhood, with easy access to the pool ( great for kids and Grandparents) and a short 0.5mile walk to Beach access 12. The home was impeccable with two wonderful king beds, partially shaded patio- great for breakfast , lunch, and relaxing. The well stocked galley kitchen worked great for cooking. We throughly enjoyed our stay. The market across the street from beach access 12 had everything you could need for all meals and treats. Just loved our trip and so appreciated how lovely the owners kept their home. Thank you so much.

Wonderful Villa in a Calm Oasis on Siesta Key

This is our second year at Whispering Pines within Polynesian Gardens villa community. We love the spacious private home with lots of living space in an open floor plan. Lovely back terrace makes outdoor cooking and dining easy. Very clean with not a problem popping up. Only downside is lack of private beach access, which was known (would be tough with young children to take to the public beach in high season). Perfect villa for adult active couples. Altez service manager was always available for any help.

Very nice place

The rental property was very nice. It was very clean when we walked in. It was nice they had all the beach stuff for you to use. I wish it was easier to access the beach though. It was a lot of walking. You had to pay for parking or try to get a place to park at the main area which was crowded. However that’s not the properties fault. Anthony was helpful when I called to see if I could check in earlier. That worked out well. However we wanted to check out a little later & we could but there was an additional charge. I thought maybe there wouldn’t be an issue because we did spend a lot for the place. However it all worked out. Thanks for a great place to stay.

Highly recommend this property

We enjoyed our stay. The property was nice and clean, the pool was a real treat for the kids. This place had everything we needed to have a great spring break. We rented a car but even without it it would have been a short walk to the beach, stores and restaurants. Would love to come back.

What a Great Place for the Family - on Siesta Key

Went down with family members for our mom's 95th birthday celebration. Had never stayed on the bay side of Siesta Key, but it was nice and quiet location. The house had every amenity we could think of, whether for the kitchen, patio, the beach ir the fishing dock. We were also able to get the local management to secure a high chair and a pack 'n play for one of the grandkids. The place was very clean, nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels for beach and showers. Would stay here again, so thanks to the owners and verb.

Siesta Key Polynesian Villa

Our party consisted of four adults and an eight year old granddaughter. We found this home to be one of our best rentals. The following were some of the highlights that we especially appreciated: * A notebook that gave pertinent information about the home and area * A well-appointed kitchen * Large and modern televisions in each room * Comfortable beds and linens * Close proximity to Sarasota for off-island exploring * A large well- kept community pool, and a beautiful community dock on the Bay * Plenty of close restaurants * Trolley transportation * Attractive outside furniture and area for grilling, making a fire, and/or dining * A sun room that afforded separate reading/sitting area * Beach toys and carts The few negatives: * We had two cars and the parking was tight and slightly on an incline with greenery on each side making it a little difficult to get out. * The beach access was a little further than expected for two of us who are in our late 70's with limited parking at our access point. All in all, however, it was a lovely home and vacation memory that we would all be happy to repeat. Thanks for allowing us to share your home.
