Property has beautiful waterfront views w/lots of amenities.

A short drive got our toes into the one of the most beautiful beaches on the West Coast. Biking the Legacy Trail was amazing!! Sarasota Farmers Market on Saturday's is GREAT! Lot's of great shopping & dining experiences in Siesta Key & St. Armand's Square. Don't overlook Bread Bandits on S Osprey & Walt's on S Tamiami Trail. Both are worthy of 5 stars!

Great experience

We hard a great stay. The house is directly on the water, my son loves fishing of the dock everyday. The private pool was a life saver. Chris, property manager, was very helpful and responsive. The apartment was very clean and as advertised. The surrounding area was great.

Paradise

We could not have asked for more! Screened in pool that is consistently refreshing. Covered area outside the pool with a large couch and TV to eat lunch before getting right back in the pool. Beautiful fishing dock where a manatee swam right by us twice! Large kitchen equipped with everything you might need. 2 screened in balconies: one for grilling and one for drinks after the kids are all tucked in. We could hear the chattering of dolphins while relaxing on the balcony! The owners are fantastic with communication. We were in paradise for a week and cannot wait to come back! Thank you!!

Relaxing and Beautiful

Our family was in Siesta Key at the end of June. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had not been to the gulf before and it did not disappoint. We enjoyed all of the amenities that this home had to offer. We spent a lot of time in the pool, and loved the use of the kayaks, and loved fishing from the dock every day. The location of the house is great as well. It is a close drive in to Sarasota for everything you need or want to do, but most of our time was spent on Siesta Key. There are numerous restaurants that are fabulous and lots of shopping as well. Our favorite thing was relaxing on the little beach that was walking distance from the house, but also had plenty of parking if we didn't want to carry everything. For more action and a much larger beach, there are public beach accesses not too far away. The parking was ok there as long as you get there early, forget it after around 11:00. The home is beautifully remodeled inside and has everything you need for your stay. The owners were very accommodating as well. The AC had gone out right before we arrived, but they made sure to have it fixed within a few hours. This was one of the best vacations my family has had in a long time and we did not want to leave! We would love to visit again someday!

Great place to stay in Siesta Key

Really enjoyed ourselves here - beautiful spot and the house is great ( more to come when the rest of it has been done up too). Electrics are quirky but rather enjoyed solving them! Quiet position on the canal but only a short drive or trolley ride to the main beaches. Great range of things to use in the pool or take to the beach too

The best location ever

This house is amazing. If you like the water, there isn’t a more ideal place to stay. There’s a drop in right there that you can use provided kayaks or we brought our own SUP boards and it was great. If you go right on the water it takes you to an island you can explore and trails. If you go left through the channel all the way out (only 15 minutes or so paddling) it takes you to a sand bar! If you’re feeling up to it you can also paddle out to Lido beach about 1.5 miles over the water away. Beats a 30 minute Uber to lido. The owner gives everything you need for the beach. If you prefer the pool, the facility is amazing. The house was also stocked with everything you could need for cooking, and clean. Host was great with communication. Can’t wait to come back.

Great house and location!

This was a really great vacation spot! Very clean, close to lots of activities and the beach, but a private and quiet street. The pool was perfect, as well as the dock to fish. Great communication and overall an excellent vacation house. Thanks for letting us make our memories there!

beautiful area

The property has great potential: however it needs new bedding. The mattress's were old and hard, almost like sleeping on a box springs. The pillows were so old they were an inch thick. The linens were very old and stained as well. The person we contacted was very concerned and nice. He replaced the pillows and gave us a mattress pad. It helped a little.

Great getaway

My husband and I enjoyed staying at the tropical treehouse. The pool is lovely, and watching a storm from the tropical treehouse is very nice. Lots of outdoor living space and nice location. The pool is downstairs from the living space, no direct entry. The property needs some tlc, but we would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Rielly

Host profile image
I'm Derek, originally from the UK, with a chapter of my life spent in Canada before settling here in beautiful Siesta Key. I’ve always loved working with my hands—fixing up old cars is a favorite pastime. When I’m not in the garage, you’ll usually find me out on the water or watching the sunset. Life here is all about enjoying the simple things, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Why they chose this property

I first visited Siesta Key during a short trip to escape the cold weather up north. What stood out to me was the laid-back atmosphere, the natural beauty, and the easy access to the water—it just felt like the right fit. After spending a few days exploring the area, I realized it was a place I could keep coming back to. When the opportunity came up to purchase a waterfront property, it made sense to invest in a vacation home here—not just for myself, but to create a space others could enjoy as well.

What makes this property unique

The property stands out from other Siesta Key homes due to its rare combination of over 150 feet of private waterfront, a private boat ramp, and a dock—all nestled in a quiet, secluded setting. Unlike many other properties on the island, it offers direct access to the water along with an oversized pool, providing both convenience for boating and a peaceful retreat for relaxation. This unique blend of privacy, waterfront access, and thoughtful outdoor amenities makes it a standout choice on Siesta Key.
