We stayed at Gumbo Limbo in January in one of the first floor apartments. It's about as close as you can get to the beach without being right on it, and close enough to walk into Siesta Key. Everything in the place was bright and cheery and very clean. Virginia, the owner really seems to care about her guests. I... More

We just returned from a week at Gumbo Limbo's Royal Palm Suite. This location was perfect--steps from the beach and only a short walk into the village. This suite was very roomy, nicely decorated and so clean. The pool area was mostly shady and tropical--but appeared larger in the photos. A few chairs around the pool were rusted and I... More

We recently stayed in the beautiful Royal Palm Suite at Gumbo Limbo and had a wonderful time. It was so close, everyday we walked barefoot to the beach! Siesta Key Beach was voted the most beautiful beach in the USA for 2011 and it is perfect. The sand is 95% quartz so it never gets hot even if it is... More

We rented the Key West suite at Gumbo Limbo for a quick 3 day family get together. The property is in an ideal location, just steps away from the Gulf of Mexico, and a few blocks from the village. Our suite was on the 2nd floor and is advertised as 2 bedroom 2 baths. I can not say enough how... More

Our family (six of us - my parents, two kids, husband and myself) recently stayed in the Key West Suite at Gumbo Limbo and had a fabulous time. We celebrated my parent's 40th wedding anniversary and also enjoyed a pool-side BBQ celebrating my daughter's 7th birthday. We spent the majority of our days just steps away at the beach with...

We recently returned from our stay at Gumbo Limbo, and I simply can't say enough about it! After a whirlwind Disney vacation, it was a welcome retreat. The accommodations are so close to the beach, we found ourselves just going barefoot! It's literally less than 2 minutes, even with small children in tow! There were 8 of us, 4 adults... More

Over Easter break 2012, 4 adults and 3 kids spent a wonderful vacation at Gumbo Limbo's 3 bedroom house. The main deck had outside seating for over 7 people and the view was the beautiful Siesta Key beach and the Gulf! The 2nd Floor Master Suite had also an amazing deck nestled for two, and the view again breathe taking... More

We stayed in the one bedroom bungalow and absolutely loved it. The location is to die for, went swimming in the Gulf everyday. Took all of 3 minutes to be in the water, the bungalow was set up perfectly with everything working. The Pool and Barbecue were just steps from our front porch and the sun shone on the porch... More
