Siesta Key condo rentals in gulf coast Florida's top barrier island
Siesta Key is a barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico, off the coast of Sarasota, Florida. It’s known for its sandy beaches and friendly locals. Fine white sand and gentle gulf breezes keep visitors coming back year after year. An ideal escape for a couple looking for romance, or a family looking to escape the Disney or Panama City crowds.
Siesta Key has amazing beach front with available rentals for you. When staying in one of our Siesta Key vacation rentals instead of hotel, you’ll have much more space and privacy, plus cost savings when booking a property for a large group. Use the filters to narrow down your choices and choose the rental that calls to you.
Climate
Prevalent sunshine and gentle coastal breezes should be expected daily. Sounds incredible, right? Well, it is. With well over 300 sunny days per year, you’d be hard pressed to visit Siesta Key at a “bad time”. Low humidity makes the area comfortable, as well as warm. Bring your sunblock to protect against UV rays and don’t forget a few pairs of swim trunks, as the warm gulf waters are perfect for boogie boarding and bodysurfing.
Getting around
From November to September the Siesta Key Trolley will take you from the southernmost part of the island to the north end. The 3 open air trolleys run 7 days a week from 8-Midnight between Turtle Beach to Siesta Village. They will pass by about every 20-30 minutes. So don’t worry too much about getting around this small barrier island. Plus, bike or scooter rentals are everywhere -- so you can exercise while you move from beach to beach.
For those who drive, two bridges link the island to the mainland. The north bridge, Siesta Drive, is within the City of Sarasota and provides convenient access to the city, its business and arts districts, and to the Sarasota/Bradenton International Airport via US Highway 41. The south bridge, Stickney Point Road, provides access to south Sarasota County and a direct route to Interstate 75.
Top activities and attractions
Let’s be serious: you’re visiting Siesta Key for the pristine beaches along the 35 miles of coastline. Here are the names to remember: Siesta Beach, Turtle Beach, and Crescent Beach. Each features soft quartz sand and warm gulf seas. The sand is cool on your feet, so you can take an extended walk by the ocean without fear.
Siesta Beach has relatively shallow waters and it is monitored by lifeguards year-round. Plus, there’s plenty of room to spread out and enjoy a long, relaxing day. Turtle Beach is the most active (think volleyball net and horseshoe pits) while Crescent Beach is known for its seclusion and relaxed atmosphere.
Just off the southern tip of Crescent Beach is Point of Rocks, one of the best places for snorkeling and underwater exploration along the Gulf Coast beaches. It is made up of large chunks of limestone covered with coral and sponges and a range of sea life inhabit these underwater formations.
Bring your clubs here, too. With over 100 golf courses in the area you’ll want to take advantage of the sunny days out on the links. There’s ample opportunity for water sports for those who shun dry land. Visitors can find companies offering kayaking, paddle boarding, deep sea fishing and much more.
Just north of Siesta Beach, Siesta Key Village has many stores ranging from hip and funky to high-end boutiques and, of course, we wouldn't be a beach town without the beach accessory and souvenir shops.
Events
If you love carefully constructed creations, visit in May for the sand castle competition. Local sand artisans and amateurs try their hand at creating jaw-dropping scenery out of sand.
Every Sunday there’s the Drum Circle featuring a cacophony of sound from various instruments performed by locals and tourists. Enjoy a stroll through the galleries of Palm Avenue on the first Friday of every month. In addition to fine galleries, this area along lower Main Street is known for its unique variety of shops and restaurants.
In April, the aptly named Siesta Fiesta takes place. Stroll along the beach while enjoying fine art and handmade crafts from 200 of the nation’s most talented artists and crafters. Showcasing an extensive collection of work ranging from life-size sculptures, spectacular paintings, one-of-a-kind jewels, photography, ceramics and more, this show truly has something for anyone. Complete with an additional green market, this spectacular show also features plants, body products, and tasty dips.
