Siesta Key Gulf Front Condo can't get much closer to the gulf

Our gorgeous condo is surrounded by water with the Gulf of Mexico on one side and Blind Pass Lagoon on the other side and Sarasota Bay within kayak range! Such a unique setting, sitting at the southern and most private end of Siesta Key. A306 is on the third floor and the views are stunning! Our community is the closest on Siesta Key to the Gulf!

This two bedroom, two bath condo is the perfect getaway for couples or families. With a beautifully renovated interior with tile flooring, a fully equipped, custom kitchen including new wood flooring, granite counter tops and stainless-steel appliances, this condo is a beautiful place to host friends and family.

Off of the master suite is a large, walk-in closet which includes a private washer and dryer.

With the rental comes a reserved parking spot and guest parking – with parking passes required. This truly is paradise with the scenic and private Turtle Beach Park right at your doorstep and no traffic coming through our community. Add the heated community swimming pool, kayak storage, gas and charcoal grills by the Lagoon, and many “first come, first serve complimentary boat docks and you will want to stay year after year. (The boat docks are free for guests, but the boat trailer must be kept offsite. Just ask for our suggested storage places list.)

Dine at incredible restaurants close by or take the trolley for a free ride to the Village or downtown Sarasota for even more great restaurants, shopping and other fun activities. Boats, bicycles, scooters and more can all be rented nearby and some deliver to the condo.

From the privacy of your own lanai or master bedroom you will hear the sound of waves rolling onto the sandy beach and enjoy magical sunsets every evening. In fact, you can see the Gulf from most every room! The Guest bedroom has a view of the Lagoon and boat docks.

• The beach is just steps from your door -no roads to cross!
• The master bedroom has a king size bed, TV/Internet and master en suite.
• The guest bedroom features 2 twin beds, or we can convert the beds to a king by your request - plus a full bath outside the door.

• minutes from Tampa, and two and a half hours from Orlando.

Fisherman’s Cove, Siesta Key, is adjacent to Turtle Beach with picnic area, grills and boat ramp. You will drive through Turtle Beach Park to our gated community – leaving the traffic behind. Our south end of Siesta Key is known as the quieter end of the island and has a laid-back feel. The action on the northern end is available via free trolley service or thru one of the free ride services that work for tips. We will send you a GuideBook before your arrival. While you are here, you will want to visit Siesta Key Public Beach and put your toes in the world famous white sand which consists of 99% pure quartz, ultimately derived from the southern Appalachians. Over millennia, rivers carried the grains of sand into the Gulf of Mexico and south along Florida’s coast. Those quartz grains are fine, without any coral or shell fragments, which results in sand with a soft, flour-like texture.

Sarasota is known as the Cultural Center of Florida with many live theaters and art galleries. Definitely worth a visit is the Ringling Campus with the State Art Museum of Florida, the Circus Museum and Ca’ d’Zan Mansion on Sarasota Bay. Marie Selby Botanical Gardens is another very special attraction in Sarasota for both adults and children.

Thank you for looking at our photos and reviews! We look forward to welcoming you!

Area Information

Siesta Key is 7-8 miles long. Siesta Key used to terminate at Blind Pass just south Fisherman’s Cove as Blind Pass separated Casey Key from Siesta Key. However, at some time, someone filled in Blind Pass so you can actually walk (no road) across the Blind Pass area now from Siesta Key onto Casey Key. Our Condo is on the top floor (3rd floor, we are not a high rise), so no one can be above you and the views of the beach and the Gulf are terrific from our Lanai. We are in close proximity to the elevator/stairs which provides the entry from the parking lot (exclusive assigned parking space) and the entry to the beach and we are a short walk to the heated pool.

Our HOA and our insurance require minimum 7 day rentals. Our guest rentals commence at 4:00 PM on the beginning Saturday and conclude at 9:00 AM on the departing Saturday and we cannot rent for partial weeks. In order to maintain the highest standards for our Condo, we do not permit smoking or pets in our Condo or more than 4 occupants.

Favorite Places To Eat

Restaurants

Here are my recommendations for restaurants:

1. Michael’s on East, 1212 East Avenue South (go north on US #41, turn right on Bahia Vista for 1 block and then right on East Street), Sarasota, FL, ,
This is my favorite because it is a 5- star restaurant that is locally owned and is not a chain. It has a piano and provides you some space so you do not feel crowded.

2. Ophelias On the Bay, 9105 Midnight Pass Rd (1/2 mile south of Turtle Beach Road), Sarasota, FL 34242, /. This is a famous gourmet restaurant with a fabulous Sunday brunch.

3. The Table, 5365 S Tamiami Trail (about 1.5 miles north of Stickney Point on US #41 at Phillippi Creek, look down on the right), Sarasota, FL 34231, , Fabulous happy hour, fabulous food, but tables are close to each other.

4 Turtles on the Bay, just on the other side of Midnight Pass Road. , . Karen eats there every time she visits the condo.

5. Crows Nest on the south Venice Jetty in Venice. . . 1968 Tarpon Center Dr, Venice, FL 34285.

6. Sharkys, 1600 Harbor Drive on the Gulf next to the Venice Airport. and . (500+ seats). Sharkys has 2 restaurants: Fins for “fine dining” and Sharkys as a regular Florida seafood restaurant.

7. Cassariano, 313 West Venice Avenue in downtown Venice . This is Karen’s favorite Italian restaurant.

8. Clayton’s Siesta Grille, 1256 Old Stickney Point Road (the road just before the Stickney Point bridge road), Sarasota, FL 34242, ; this is a favorite breakfast grill.


9. Walts Fish Market, 4144 South Tamiami Trail (US #41 just south of Bee Ridge Road), Sarasota 34231, ; very fresh seafood market and seafood restaurant. /home.html
