Island House Beach Resort 4S

We had a wonderful time. Sad to leave. Island House was beautiful and clean. Everybody is friendly and 4S was beautiful and clean. Loved the view and can’t wait to come back!!!!

I've been coming to Island House since 2009. This year management has changed. Loved 4S the views are breathtaking. The negatives the dishwasher was broke the entire week except two days and the king mattress needs replaced it's worn out. I was hoping to book again for next year but due to the new management wanting 25% down and non refundable and raising the amount it doesn't appear that will happen. Too much can happen in a year to put 25% down.
The positives the unit had updated bathrooms, kitchen and living room were all very nice.

Very nice condo and excellent beach. Siesta Key was busy so taking transport into the village area rather than driving was easiest. Great vacation

Had a great vacation! Great weather! Apartment 4S was well kept great views! Hoping to stay here next year!

We have been coming since 2016 and our experience is as good as it was years ago. We are scheduled for next year

Great ... The red tide was irritating for a few days but this is an environmental thing . The county should clean up dead fish on the shoreline more often.
Island House is a great place to stay .

Great location right on the beach. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. Pool was clear warm and relaxing. We had a great time and would recommend Island House to anyone.

The view from 4S is beautiful, and proximity to the beach is great, but there are a lot of things that need improvement within 4S. First, this unit has not had a deep cleaning in a long time and it shows. The floors were filthy and bottoms of our feet were routinely dark. The toilet bowl brushes under the sink are just thrown in the cabinet, next to the clean towels, which is gross. The kitchen cabinets are highly disorganized, with items thrown in random drawers and cabinets (only exception was the cabinet with the dishes, which was well organized). The utility closet in the kitchen is a mess, and not safe for children. The unit is not designed well for families with young children - there is no bathtub to bathe little ones, the fan on the lanai does not have an on/off switch (you have to unplug a dangerous cord that simply hangs to the side), and there are no rugs anywhere, so no place for babies to play on the ground (other than just putting them directly on the cold and dirty tile floor). The bedding in the guest room is extremely cheap/low quality (part of Target's "college collection" comforters). Lastly, the owners of 4S lock the full front closet so there is minimal storage for toys/stroller/cooler, etc. For the price, I would have expected a nicer stay. It doesn't need to be fancy at all, but please do the basics - - - clean unit, child safe unit, organized unit. I have been going to Island House for 35 years and was disappointed with this unit.

we enjoy the Island House and SK so much we will be back again next year and maybe more than once. Staff, service, location all meet our needs and request.

Once again we had a great stay at a great place. The entire complex was clean and safe.

Thank you for another wonderful week in paradise!

Clean, terrific location & unit showed well.
The close access to the beach & view was
Awesome.

Unit 4S is perfectly located and beautifully decorated. The views are spectacular especially the sunsets.

Our mother/daughter vacation stay in 4s - was PERFECT. The staff
Was very friendly and helpful. The condo was spacious, clean and right on the beach. We watched the sunset from the screened porch while we played games and enjoyed a refreshing cocktail.

The condo was updated and very clean. Had everything we needed for our stay. There is a good size
Kitchen, large bedrooms and bathrooms, comfortable living room and two porches. I would highly recommend this rental.

We were pleasantly surprised by our condo at Island House Beach. Our condo was clean, updated, so much more spacious that we had thought and the location was perfect. The view on our screened lanai of the beach was beautiful. We watched the sunset every night from our screened lanai. The bathrooms were updated, clean, and the beds perfect. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay and will definitely rent again at Island House Beach!
