As good as advertised!

My family of 8 stayed at the Shiny Diamond over Spring Break and couldn’t be happier with the property. We had plenty of sleeping space, the pool and patio were truly as big as the pictures show, and communication with the host was seamless. Thanks for a great stay!

Great property!

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful month at The Shiny Diamond! We love the open layout of this home and the pool and hot tub. The house location is perfect for a trip to Siesta Key Beach and is surrounded by all the shops and restaurants you could possibly want.Our interactions with the owners/property managers were always easy. I recommend this home.

Sunny South vacation

We really had a great time staying at this place! It is in a quiet neighborhood. We are a family of 8 and this home was perfect for us all! The house has well furnished bedrooms! Well stocked kitchen. I did miss my Keurig coffee maker that I am used to having at home. There is a great coffe pot there so brewed my coffee like that which was fine but a Keurig would be a great addition to the kitchen in my opnion. :) We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you !

Great location!

Property was great! The pool and hot tub are fantastic. We stayed the week of Thanksgiving and the house was perfect for us. Everything you’ll need is less than 10mins from the property. Siesta Key Beach was amazing and lived up to the hype. We payed the extra fee to heat the pool and hot tub, I would highly recommend this option at this time of year making night swims a highlight for the kids.

Amazing family vacation!

We loved the location- close to everything. The pool was amazing for our little kids- loved the sun deck! Clean and close to siesta key- about 9 min to the beach! Loved the large sliding doors so I could see the kids if they were taking a sun break- a great family vacation! Comes with beach chairs, wagon, and cooler for the beach.

Good time in Sarasota

The house itself was very good. Laid out well and very comfortable with all the required amenities of a rental property. The pool area was not addressed as well as the house, but the hot tub was very comfortable. The outside of the property was not maintained very well too. The neighborhood was very quiet but a little on the downside.

Winter 2024 Sarasota Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. Even though the weather was unusually cool we made good use of the spa. The location made it easy to get Siesta Beach, many restaurants and golf courses. The property manager was very responsive to our questions and even brought us a new propane tank for the grill.

Spring break in Sarasota

We loved the Shiny Diamond! We had 3 moms and 6 boys and there was plenty of room for all of us. We really enjoyed the pool! It was very close to Siesta Key beach. The house was very clean upon arrival and communication with the host was great. I would highly recommend the Shiny Diamond!

Fantastic stay cut short

This property really is fantastic. Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short to avoid hurricane Milton but will definitely be coming back to this villa when we can. Everything about the villa is great, lovely big open planned kitchen, livingroom and dining area. Massive fridge freezer, big TV, comfy couch! The villa was extremely clean and tidy also. We were a group of 8 (4 adults, 2 teens and 2 infants) and there was lots of room. The pool area really makes this place a 10/10 there is a great shallow area for the infants to sit on and play in and then the main part of the pool is really deep for the older ones to jump into etc. Can’t wait to come back and this time hopefully avoid a hurricane.!!

A Great Family Vacation

We were in Sarasota to celebrate my mom’s 103rd birthday. I surprised her by bringing her three great grandchildren to visit. The accommodations were just right and the pool/spa was an added perk. The house is centrally located to many fun attractions as well as to my Florida family. Thank you!

Great house, location, pool and price

Our teen daughters loved the big heated pool in October. Wife and I enjoyed soaking in the hot tub. The location was pretty central and close to beaches and downtown. House was clean and had most of what we needed for a week there. Price was hard to beat as well. Comfy beds and the grill worked out well. Thanks for a great vacation spot!

great location!

the property is in a normal residential neighborhood but very close to shops/grocieries/dining/beach. Very quiet neighborhood. the property is nicely equipped, modern and comfortable. It was perfect for my wife and I to get away for a few days. The covered pool was nice, frankly we spent most of our time relaxing on the patio/pool area. they have thought of a lot of little details (towels for both the pool/beach, beach gear in the garage, etc....). already planning on coming back in spring!

Paradise Close to the Beach

We had a lovely stay. It was close to the Siesta key beach (less than 15 min to the public beach parking with traffic), close to Costco (10 min), and Publix (4 min) by car. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The highlight was of course the pool, which was great for my kids. They even provided pool floaties! The spa was wonderful for my elderly parents. Beds were on the softer side, but still comfortable. It was perfect. We really didn’t want to leave.

Impressed!

I was super impressed with the amount of sleeping room. The owner maximized the space to the limit, so awesome! Perfect for larger families or those that like to travel with lots of friends. The pool was of course a great bonus that we utilized daily after a day in the sun. Decor was modern, and you immediately feel like you are home when you first walk in. And so close to everything, you are literally in the center of it all! Just minutes away from wherever you need to be! Overall just a wonderful spot. Will definitely like to return again.

Can't wait to go back!

We loved the Shiny Diamond for our vacation home for 10 days in December. The layout is perfect for all ages. The house is located close to grocery stores, restaurants and Siest Key Beach. The neighbors were all super friendly and we felt very safe. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need to cook a meal for 2 or 12. The house was very clean and very modern, with well-kept furnishings. The pool is a huge bonus. Worked fantastic and is kept very clean. We had our 2-year-old grandson with, and the splash pad area was a huge bonus for us! Outdoor area is actually larger that it appears in the photos. Very comfortable and relaxing. The owners were amazing to communicate with, very prompt with answering questions that came up. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Home

Beautiful home in Sarasota. We stayed here for 10 nights in early September. The house is in a quiet neighborhood. We never heard any sounds from other residents outside. From the neighborhood you can quickly reach shops, restaurants and within 10 minutes on Siestakey beach. The house is beautifully decorated, nice kitchen, living room, master bedroom with a wonderful bed. In addition, 2 large bedrooms with many beautiful beds. Outside the garden is great (little decoration) nice seats under the canopy. Lounge chairs along the lovely large swimming pool. In summary, we had a great time. Enjoyed all the luxury!! Highly recommended!! Greetings Marcel

Great location

The space was perfect for our family of 9. Grocery is about 5 min drive, beach and St Armand’s Circle was 18-30 min drive depending on time of day. Pool and spa were great to have however communication could be better with host. Having them heated is $20/day additional fee, which I was aware of. They are managed with an iPad at the house that has a code. In order to turn up the heat, payment for heating has to be made before they give you the code. Spa and pool can not be heated at the same time, it’s either/or. Took us awhile to figure that out. When pool is being heated it’s circulating spa water as well. Just so you’re aware if everything has been off it can take 2-3 hrs for spa to get hot. Aside from that confusion, everything you need in the kitchen is available. They even provided body wash and shampoo which is a nice bonus. It was great to have wagon and beach chairs also!

Comfortable clean but pool and spa does not get warm

Positives are: comfortable furniture and beds, nice updated kitchen, beautiful pool and spa; negatives are: location- other reviews say 5 minute walk to beach. No way. It is 15 minute drive to siesta key beach. Also the neighborhood is old Florida with surrounding homes that are poorly kept up - but it is a safe neighborhood. The Good restaurants are a 20-30 minute drive. Biggest negative was that despite being charged for heating the pool - it did not get warm at all until 4 days into our trip. It was unusable before that. Also any time we wanted to use pool or spa, we had to text the property manager to turn on the heat which took another couple hours to get the pool or spa warm again. The manager kept telling us over texts- that the spa was at 101 or higher- which was inaccurate because touching the water showed it to be closer to bath temp. This text discussion went on for the entire trip (6 days). And it wasn’t until the final night that the spa felt good. The manager said the heat could not be in the pool at the same time as the spa which was absurd since the heat should have been kept on the entire time we were there in both the spa and pool. Also the dishwasher did not work the entire time we were there, which was horrible given we were hosting thanksgiving dinner for family. The clean up and hand washing all the dishes was not what I wanted to be doing on vacation. I would not stay here again.
