**ASK ABOUT LAST MINUTE DEALS!

Fall in love with charming Gulf and Bay Club Bayside, a Key West-inspired village located on the banks of the Intracoastal Waterway and directly across the street from world-famous Siesta Key Beach! This spacious 2nd floor condo is newly remodeled and redecorated and features vaulted ceilings, tile floors, updated kitchens and bathrooms, and island casual decor.


Enjoy views of the tennis courts, pool, and fountain-topped lake from the screened balcony, the perfect place for a sunny breakfast or candlelit dinner. Fans of television and film will love the 60" flat-panel high definition TV in the living room, as well as smart TVs in both bedrooms.

The master bedroom features a king bed, access to the screened porch, and a large en suite bath, complete with walk-in shower. The second bedroom features two full beds, each offering a different mattress selection so guests can choose between firm and plush. A second full bath with a combination tub/shower is located just across the hall.

Stow your beach equipment and tennis racquets in the garage for easy access when it's time to head outside. A short stroll across the street will take you to the complex's private beach access, which leads directly to the white sand beaches and sparkling waters of the Gulf of Mexico. With its coveted location just to the south of Siesta Key Public Beach, you'll have easy access to all the fun, from sandcastle building contests to boat races and holiday celebrations.

Back on the bayside, you'll find a brand new dock stretching out into the Intracoastal Waterway, the perfect place for fishing or for watching the continuous parade of boats, people, and nature...a feast for the eyes! Nearby is one of the complex's two heated swimming pools, and a community center with exercise room. The other pool is located behind the unit next to the lighted tennis courts.

Siesta Village, located just north of the public beach, offers a variety of shopping and dining options, with many venues featuring live music. Catch one of the Island's free-ride taxis (remember your tip money, please!), or rent something fun like a kayak, paddleboard, scooter, or bike for your own transportation.

You'll find Gulf and Bay Club Bayside the perfect spot for your Siesta Key beach vacation...book now, and plan on coming back year after year!

Hot and steamy week at Siesta Key

Great property and location close to the beach which was perfect in the hot 90’ish weather. Short walk into the beach town was an added plus.

Siesta Key vacation

The location was a short, lovely walk to the beach. We were provided a wagon to help cart beach chairs, towels, and beach umbrella. The view from our unit was the lagoon and the pickleball courts, which although a bit noisy in the morning, was still mostly peaceful. The unit had a comfortable king bed and couch, kitchen had the essentials, and we had plenty of room. Overall, a great experience.

Nice condo on beautiful Siesta Key. We loved the screened in porch. Easy walk to the beach. Extremely comfortable furniture. Bedding and pillows could be updated. Should have listened to other reviews and brought our own pillows. Overall, it was a great week and we hope to be back soon!

This condo was wonderful! Everything was clean and nicely decorated. We had plenty of room for all 6 of us. The beach is a short walk from the condo. The condo had chairs, carts, beach towels, bikes, etc. for us to use while we were there. We had a great time in Siesta Key!

lovely property, beautifully decorated

The property was very beautiful, decorated with lovely colors and comfortable furnishings. We had a great time and would return to this property. The beach is right across the street and is exceptionally beautiful. We could sit on our porch and watch the tennis players and could see the pool. Very relaxing! Also, the kitchen has anything you could hope for for staying in and cooking, which we did several nights.

Not fancy, but had everything we needed.

Nice property, it was very clean. It overlooks the tennis and pickleball courts, which is handy because you can see when the courts are free. The kitchen was well equipped. We also had everything we needed for the beach, such as a cooler, wagon, chairs and umbrella. We even had two bicycles. The decor is nice but a little dated. Nice screened-in porch. I’d say the only thing missing was barbecue tools. Siesta key village is about a 30 minute walk but the trolley is always an option if you’re not a walker.

The condo was great! It was clean, nicely furnished, close to the pool & a short walk to the beach.

I stayed here with my family of 4 which included 2 small children. It was perfect for us. The unit had good sized bedrooms, bathrooms and living area. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The best part was all of the beach equipment - chairs, bikes, a wagon and pool floats. It was great. The beach is about a 10 min walk. We had a great time and would definitely stay here again.

Siesta Key Bay club Gulf

I made reservations to this place pretty blind folded. It turned out to be a great place for our family. I was expecting to walk to the public beach and it happened to be that we were sharing the private beach with the condos across the street. There were some things that were not working on our unit but Doug the owner was pretty prompt to resolve the few issues. If I come back to siesta key I will definitely will be on the look out of this property.

Great Condo Complex

This was the best condo our family has ever rented. Very nice layout. Very clean. The screened in patio was nice for relaxing in the evening. The second bedroom had two nice size beds. The showers were great. The main television was huge. The beach access was a relatively short walk across the street. Plenty of beach towels and chairs were provided. Siesta Key village was a very short drive and had a good variety of restaurants and shops. The pictures of the condo show exactly what it looks like. I would definitely recommend this property and our family would definitely stay in this condo again.

Great Condo at a Very Reasonable Price

This was the second time we have rented this property. It is the nicest of the condos we have rented. Nice kitchen, living room has a very large television, although we never watched it this time. The bathrooms are very modern, especially the master. Beds are comfortable. Our favorite room was the screened in patio with a ceiling fan that was really comfortable even with the outside temperature in the low 90s. Only a short walk across the street to the beautiful Siesta Key beach. We had some very minor issues that we notified the owners about on Thursday, so that they could fix the problems for future renters. They fixed the problems that day! Highly recommended this property.

Minor issues but code issue needs to be addressed!!

My stay at the condo was nice and overall I felt comfortable. There were just a few issues: the code did not work which could have been a dilemma if my flight was delayed. Thank God the angel showed up out of nowhere and provided us with the master key. I read other reviews about codes not working as well. This should be looked into. Next issue… we found a dirty towel in one of the bathroom drawers and underwear under the bed. We threw them in the garbage. Next issue… the water in the sinks for the master bath did not go down the drain easily. My stay was packed with events and did not have time to wait around for a plumber so we just dealt with it. Next Issue…since our code did not work we could not use the tennis court at our leisure and had to wait for someone else to access it. Next issue…the garage stunk so bad we had to air it out for the day and keep the things we wanted to use in the porch so it wouldn’t stink. I’m planning my next trip within the next six mos and not sure if I will return. The condo itself is nice and it’s close enough to everything but not sure if I want to chance the code not working or deal with the other issues.
