The Beach
Our beach has a quieter Siesta Key Beach in front and to the right plus a lively popular crowd at the Public Beach 50 yards south. It is a top spot on the island for sunsets and on Sundays the world-famous Siesta Key Drum Circle happens 100 yards down the beach. The water here is shallow clear and calm with white quartz-sand tide-pools perfect for sleeping drinking or playing.

The Home
Large 3BR home fully remodeled in 2023. Beautiful décor and thoughtful amenities throughout. Out-door grilling and dining, indoor and outdoor lounging, perfect for bigger groups, surrounded by palms. Set on the Southern edge of Siesta Village. Just 1-minute walk to top beaches, and 3-minute golf cart or trolly ride (15-minute walk) to restaurants and the best fresh oysters, seafood, tropical drinks, ice cream, entertainment, and even gourmet donuts on the island.

Property Truths
The pool at this location is shared with just three other units. Your unit is unit A, the pool is located behind units C and D, and this is only 20 steps from your building. While shared pools are "the norm" on the island, especially this close to the beach, people used to less popular beach destinations could be caught by surprise. Our properties in Vermont and New Jersey commonly have private pools, but don't go there if you can go to Siesta Key.

Beach Gear Provided
We provide beach towels, chairs, carts, and umbrellas. If you don't have what you need, just reach out and we can usually get it for you. Correction for Air-b-n-b listings this location doesn't provide "snorkeling gear" but this and anything you need can be rented or purchased nearby.

Household Items Provided
We provide bedding, kitchen items, most major and minor appliances, blow dryers, and hangers. Simple soaps and paper products come in starter-supply that will get you through a short stay and anything you need can be purchased nearby.

What to Bring
It's a laid-back island so pack as lite as you like. Our fashion is casual, wash and wear, and all units have laundries. Also, anything you forget to bring can be found nearby in good supply and fair prices.
