***Location location location…
Best of both worlds- close to beaches, walkable to local restaurants and a few miles from famous downtown Sarasota restaurants, shopping and nightlife.

Only 5 miles to the large SIESTA KEY BEACH parking lot and 6 miles to LIDO KEY BEACH. Both beaches have large public parking lots and a concessions stand with good hot food and refreshing frozen drinks (including alcoholic). Siesta Key Beach's sand is 99% quartz, which makes it white and powder soft. Siesta Key has two lively areas for dining..... The Siesta Key village and an another area by the South bridge.

Grab your FISHING pole and head to the water, just 1.3 miles to the Siesta Dr - north bridge for fishing.

DOWNTOWN is 2 1/2 miles away with restaurants, arts, shopping, Whole Foods and farmers market. Downtown has too many restaurants to name such as: Marina Jack’s, O’Leary Tiki Bar and grill, Owen’s Fish Camp, too many to name but a fun area to walk around and dine. Theater and arts are big in Sarasota. Check out the local theater events and shows. You can also take sightseeing boat cruises from the marina.

LIDO KEY is just a couple miles from downtown. It is an exciting spot with lots to do including kayaking/stand up paddle boarding in the mangroves, hang out at Lido beach or stroll around the restaurants and stores of St Armands Circle.

Pool is solar heated which has some limitations, it can only heat about 7-10 degrees. The pool and solar panels are south facing. The hot tub is stand alone and can be heated to your desired temperature. My main focus is a clean rental. I have all linens - sheets, quilts, blanket, throw rugs cleaned between guests in an offsite industrial cleaner.
