Map & Owner's Profile
Beautiful 2BR/2BA Condo with Water View on Sunny Siesta Key
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Harbor Towers
We fell in love with Siesta Key and Sarasota the first time we visited. We love being able to walk on the beach, eat at a nice restaurant on the water, sit on a bench on our condo property watching the manatees and boats go by or take a quick drive downtown to St. Armand's Circle.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Our condo association is very well run so the property is always maintained nicely. We like the free wi-fi in the lobby. We make a habit of going down in the evening to check on our email and connect with friends back north. We also like cooking out on the grills near the pool. We usually bring the cooked food back upstairs and eat dinner on our lanai watching the boats go by.
The tennis courts, sauna, swimming pool and fitness center are also very nice benefits. On Friday evenings, there's also a movie that is played in the social room on the very large (72") TV.
Siesta Key public beach famous for its white sand that always feels cool on your feet no matter how hot the sun is.
If you have a boat, you can keep it at our marina at an extremely affordable price of $1 per foot per month.
You can sit in the gazebo or one of the chairs on this little island to watch the boats and manatees
The pond and waterfalls in the front of the condo attracts birds and is a nice place to sit and relax.
As a guest of our unit, you will be given a key fob to raise the automotic gate letting you in and out of the parking lot. We also have a night time security guard.
Come to turtle beach if you want to get away from the crowds or want to see the turtles lay the eggs in season.
This quaint little village has some nice shops and restaurants. You don't want to miss the Broken Egg for breakfast.
This is our patio with 4 gas grills and several tables and chairs for you to enjoy your dinner.
Owner's Map of Harbor Towers
We love traveling around the world, learning about new cultures and meeting new people. We live in upstate NY and enjoy the distinct seasons this area has to offer. We do enjoy getting away to our little hideaway in the sun when the winter's drag on a bit too long.
