About this property
Serene yard and pool, 1 mile to beach, pets OK, patio TV, Kayaks
Adorable 2 bed/ 2 bath 1400 square foot home located in Sarasota, FL. This property is located west of US 41 and approximately 1 mile to the south bridge of Siesta Key with close access to beaches. You will love the proximity to Siesta Key without having to get stuck in traffic any time you go on or off the island! Enjoy a quiet residential neighborhood which is great for walking while having restaurants, shops, and attractions all at your fingertips. Walk down the street to the intercoastal where you can enjoy a sunset or fishing off the sea wall. There is a public park nearby (Phillippi Estate Park) as well within walking distance (enjoy a farmers market during season). Enjoy the enclosed patio area with private pool and outdoor seating. The pool can be heated for an additional fee of $20 per day, please let host know prior to arrival if you would like this turned on as it does take a day to get to desired temps. Nature lovers will love the large tropical backyard filled with trees and chirping birds. Enjoy a small outdoor patio table under the string lights or cook s’mores under the stars in the outdoor fire pit. Beautiful original terrazzo floors through with open kitchen floor plan. 1 dog allowed with prior owner approval and paid pet fee. Dog must be over 1 year old and well mannered. Please keep off furniture and pick up after. The home's water supply is on a well and although we do have a filtration system/softener, we do not recommend drinking the water for taste reasons. The water is perfectly fine for cooking, bathing, washing dishes, brushing teeth, etc..but we suggest bringing spring water to drink. Enjoy 2 complimentary beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, & a cooler for a relaxing day at the beach! We have an electric pump so bring a raft too! * Please note there is a 25 foot RV parked off to the side in driveway (this is not in use during your stay or occupied, only parked there).
*No parties or events, please (we are close with our neighbors and want to keep them happy!) *Direct pool access, children must be supervised at all times *Maximum of 4 guests, including ALL children and adults, please *MINIMUM age of 28, drivers license required prior to check in for security measures. * NON SMOKING HOME * Quiet hours 10pm-8am *All bedrooms equipped with ceiling fans***PLEASE NOTE-- AC cannot be turned down lower than 72 (can be set anywhere from 72-78) degrees as recommended by HVAC company and risk of freezing out the system and causing damage to unit and home to be warm while waiting to defrost...if you are not comfortable at these temps please do not book...thank you for understanding and just want to be upfront with guests ahead of time!*** Come enjoy the Seashell bungalow and our lovely weather!!

Property was great and pool/patio area was wonderful. The owner had everything you needed for an enjoyable stay and had so many area recommendations that we enjoyed. House is located very close to restaurants, the beach, and airport and the neighborhood is a great area to walk around. Would definitely come back!
Great space and location for our mother daughter weekend! The pool/patio area was cozy and comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. We had an amazing stay!
We absolutely loved this home! The pool was perfect! We would definitely rent again. Sarasota was absolutely lovely. Loved the convenience of everything. This home was a short drive to everything we wanted to do. Excellent food choices, in the area. Host! always communicated very well
Extremely wonderful experience. Place was clean and in a excellent location to local beaches. Carrie thought of everything to make your stay easy and stress free.
We had a wonderful vacation and this home exceeded our expectations in every way. The house is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully designed, and the backyard truly felt like having our own private resort. It was the perfect place for our small family, and our child absolutely loved it.We especially appreciated having all of the beach equipment available for guests. Since we traveled by plane, it made our trip so much easier and allowed us to enjoy the beach without having to bring extra gear. The location was fantastic, and everything about our stay couldn’t have been easier.We are so grateful for such a relaxing and memorable vacation and would happily stay here again. Highly recommend!

Just 9 minutes to Siesta Key Beach and when you get back enjoy a late swim in the pool. Very nice home and neighborhood. Close to restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed our stay!
This property was perfect. The house had everything you need and is in a quiet neighborhood extremely close to the beach. The manager was a pleasure to deal with and would definitely stay here again. Really a great vacation home.

The property was absolutely wonderful! Exactly what we were wanting. Cozy, comfortable and convenient.
The house is a perfect place in a wonderfully located neighborhood. It is very clean and comfortable! Carrie is easy to communicate with. Just a fantastic place!
Beautiful house with all you need to relax and enjoy your vacation. There were issues with the pool heater and the hosts went out of their way to come to the propeety and fix it. We will be rebooking for sure!
My Husband and Son came up for a baseball tournament in the area and the home was the perfect fit to relax and unwind after a long day of games. Manager was easily accessible and check in/out was seamless. The property was exactly as depicted in the photos.
Great place to stay for a mini vacay. Our boys absolutely loved spending time in the pool after some beach time in the morning. The home was exactly as listed, no surprises and perfect for a family of 4. The location was also a plus with everything near by. We would love to come back soon.
This house was a perfect getaway for me and my dog. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. The backyard was beautiful and my husband and I love the pool perfect size for a small group. The house had everything we needed and was clean.
We wanted to stay close to the beach and restaurants and this home was perfect. The house had a cooler, beach chairs and umbrella so less things to pack which is great. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. The host also had a book with some recommendations for restaurants and things to do which is helpful when trying to to figure out what to do after a lovely day at the beach.
Overall experience at property was excellent. Home was very comfortable, clean, with nice lanai area & private back yard. Quiet neighborhood worked well for dog walking. Traffic flow on local roads to Siesta Key was smooth, given Spring Break was taking place. Good access to public beach entry points. Nice selection of neighborhood restaurants. Very enjoyable stay !
This charming beach house is a stones throw from Siesta Key beach. A quick drive to other local beaches north and south. Centrally located. Comfortable beds and couches. Beautiful terrazzo floors. We would definitely come back. Very clean.
