About this property

Terrific Siesta Key home on the Grand Canal, 700 yards from the beach

Our charming home is located on the Grand Canal deep boating water, just 700 yards to the powdery sands of Siesta Key Beach. Siesta Village with its shops, restaurants numerous live music venues is just a few blocks away.

The house sits on a cul-de-sac, set back from passing traffic. The welcoming gated entry, lush tropical landscaping and sparkling expansive water views, make our home a joy. We think it absolutely perfect for a relaxing break.

The property, inside and out, was modernized in 2014 and comprises four bedrooms and three shower-rooms (two en-suite and one with a bath). Multiple glass sliders along the back of the home bathe the rooms in natural light. The well planned kitchen, featuring granite counters and stainless appliances overlooks the new pool area and family room. The laundry room is equipped with separate washer and drier, as well as plenty of hanging space. The master-bedroom suite features french doors opening out onto the canal, walk-in closet and master bath with marble counters, roman tub & large shower. The new ‘low-chlorine’ pool is screened from mosquitos and enjoys great water views thru the tropical landscaping from every angle. The dock is equipped with bumpers and tie down cleats.

We enjoy watching the sun rising in the morning with coffee in hand on the dock. Wildlife is abundance with fish constantly jumping out of the water. Watch out for the occasional dolphin or manatee swimming along the property.

Please note the rates are inclusive of an expensive 3% credit card fee which we do not receive. If you would prefer to avoid this fee we are happy to accept wire transfers and will reduce the rental rate accordingly.

Please note that in high season December to April there is a 12 week minimum stay.

Beautiful home in paradise
We have stayed for two weeks at this beautiful house close to the best beach in the USA. To sum it up, it was fantastic! The well equipped house is in a perfect condition and offers a lot of space, a big pool and an awesome garden next to the Grand Canal. We especially enjoyed sitting outside and watching the fishes jumping and manatees playing right in front of us. The responsive and helpful owner has prepared a comprehensive manual including YouTube videos to explain all the equipment. We have been welcomed by the friendly real estate agent who walked us through the property. The rooms are friendly, well furnished and offer a lot of space. You will find everything in the kitchen including a huge refrigerator (which we loved), TV, internet and even beach stuff like chairs, umbrellas and bikes. The beach is a 10 minute walk away, the village some 5 minutes by car and Sarasota in close reach through the two bridges. We have played golf on some great courses some 20-30 minutes away by car. In terms of room for improvement we would have prefered a bigger gas BBQ instead of the rather small coal grill which is a bit more difficult to handle. But this is just a minor recommendation after perfect holidays in paradise.

Home from home paradise
My wife and I and another couple have stayed at this wonderful property twice over the last couple of years and look forward to returning. Perfect location, very close to the beach (best beach in the USA!) and the village and on a lovely part of the canal. The house is roomy, light and has a warm homely feel with a beautifully tended garden. Highly recommend!

About the host

Host profile image
We love Siesta Key and Sarasota - the perfect destination - and visit four times a year with our children. Each visit is never long enough! One day we will eventually retire here however until then we are happy to share our home.

Why they chose this property

Canal fronting plus walking distance to the beach and village - you really don't need to be in your car every day. The home was renovated 2014 and redecorated internally in 2021. The landscaping continues to evolve with a beautiful lush gardens overlooking the canal - the perfect place to sit and enjoy beautiful sunrises, sunsets and watch fish swimming by.

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the dock or the patio area watching the sun rise or sunset never loses it's appeal. The home's location being a few minutes walk to the white sandy Siesta Key beach which has again been voted #1 in the US and a few minutes walk to the Village makes this home the perfect place to stay in Sarasota. The single level home is very well designed with lovely areas to sit and relax and 4 large spacious bedrooms (2 en-suite). The home sits on a quiet, wide cul-de-sac with lots of space and lush landscaping.
