Property Truths
This Siesta Key vacation rental is a budget 2BR accommodation priced like our 1BR units. It has everything our prime units have except sound insulation in the ceiling which, although usually not an issue, might result in noise from above. If you want to experience Siesta Key, less than one minute walk from the best beach on the island but are on a budget and are not sensitive to noise from the ceiling above then the poor boy should be the perfect place for you.
The Beach
Skip the crowds and commercial feel. Coral Cabanas offers Siesta Key-style charm and beach access #13—quieter, more private, and just across the street. With no public parking nearby, this cove is one of Siesta's most exclusive beaches. The white quartz sand, tide pools, and calm, clear water are perfect for relaxing. A livelier scene with food, drinks, and the weekend drum circle is just a short beach walk north. Point of Rocks reef is only 60 yards south.
The Location
No car needed. Nestled on a quiet street with no traffic, businesses, or public parking. Walk 7 minutes to Siesta's top eco-adventures—boat, bike, jet-ski, and fishing tours. Prefer to relax? Sunbathe on the balcony, nap in a hammock, or enjoy Siesta's top-rated seafood, ice cream, and waterfront dining. Just a short stroll to favorites like Daiquiri Deck, Sniki-Tiki, Crescent Club, and Orange Octopus.
Reef Snorkeling
Siesta Key is already paradise—now add one of the Gulf Coast's best snorkeling spots! Just 60 yards south, Point of Rocks offers safe, shallow waters filled with tide pools, colorful marine life, and shelling treasures. Most days you'll spot chameleons, sponges, mother-of-pearl shells, conch, and maybe even dolphins or turtles. Ideal for exploring by foot, snorkel, paddleboard, or kayak.

8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
I really liked the spot it was super close to the beach. It was a very simple little place but that's all you need for a beach vacation. laundry was free. Lots of stuff to borrow and use. My ONLY complaint is the mattresses. Very firm and unforgiving. My back ached by the end of the stay. If they changed that out—I'd spend lots of weekends here. Note: it is on the south end of Siesta so you have to drive to the village shops and such but for a relaxing quiet spot—it's perfect.

We have stayed at the Poor Boy a few times. We will always come back! The rooms are clean, all the things needed for a beach trip is provided. The customer service and good communication is a bonus.

We had a wonderful time. The appartement was just what we needed. It was close to the beach and we took advantage of using the accessible beach chairs. After our stay, my niece left her sandals and the staff was kind enough to ship them to my house. What a service! We will gladly recommend to our friends and look forward to returning there.
