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 Condo
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.

Just need to make a correction to our family's review. We wrote the sunsets from the balcony; actually should read SUNRISE. Everything about this vacation home is perfect! Thanks for a wonderful 2 weeks.

This was our first stay at this condo which my daughter (who lives in Sarasota) found for us. It was perfect! The photos and descriptions of locations are exactly as it is. (Other's we have found are not!) The property was clean and very well maintained. The view from the balcony and the sunsets you can see from there are breathtaking. Home away from home (everything you could need and more right in the condo - even noodles for the pool!) The owner of the condo was easily and always contactable if we had any questions. The location is perfect, situated on Siesta Key and very close to Siesta Key village and the beach. Downtown Sarasota is only a short drive away. We had a truly wonderful stay and will certainly recommend this propery to friends and relatives.

We thoroughly enjoy the unit, its view, comfortable layout and calming, earth tone aesthetic. The owners are very pleasant, accommodating and are easily accessible. We recommend this as a quality unit, so much so that we plan on renting again next year for the fourth time.

We stayed in Siesta Key before the holidays and had a great week. The condo is lovely and very comfortable. The kitchen is nice and both bathrooms are updated. It has a wonderful view and is convenient to all. The grounds are well kept w/ a heated pool. The owner was very easy to deal with, we will be back.

I just returned from a relaxing and wonderful vacation in Siesta Key where I stayed at this lovely condo. The kitchen and both bathrooms are recently updated. The view from the lanai is spectacular, and the condo is convenient to the beach, Siesta Key village and downtown Sarasota. I will visit again and can highly recommend this condo.

Condo was great, nice updated kitchen and bathrooms. The owner and condo staff were very nice and easy to work with. I've been to Siesta Key before and for the price and location, you really can't beat this. We were just a quick 2 minute drive to the beach (you can probably walk if its not too hot out). Downtown Siesta Key was also a quick drive. I recommend Bamboo Bistro for breakfast or lunch on the patio. They have great food and owners were very friendly.
