Beachfront Luxury Renovated Condo Directly On the Gulf
Look no further, you have found your Luxurious Penthouse Condo Rental at 705N in Crescent Arms! Located directly on the sparkling white sandy beach of Crescent Beach. Feel confident booking my unit for your vacation. When you arrive at my condo, if it's not perfect and exactly as it is listed, I will do what ever it takes to make your stay extraordinary. My cleaning staff follows the CDC guidelines for cleaning, and I have allocated enough time in between guests checking in and out of my condo to thoroughly disinfect and clean the condo. The condo is completely renovated with all new kitchen appliances, and cabinets, new living room and bedroom furniture, solid core doors and freshly painted throughout, as well as updated/renovated bathrooms. It's beautifully appointed and absolutely immaculately clean! I don't treat my condo as a rental, which means I purchase items like bedding that I would want as if I lived there every day. The condo has Saatva mattresses, pillow toppers and pillows on all of my beds to give you an amazing nights sleep. I can't tell you how many guests text me after their stay asking me where they can purchase the bedding for their home because they had such a wonderful sleep experience! Another amenity you won't find in many condo's on Siesta Key is carpet! Would you have tile on every floor in your house? Then don't settle for cold tiled floors for your vacation retreat! The condo also comes with a third twin bed, and fits perfectly between the current twin beds. Or pull the two twin beds together, and with a specially made harness that keeps the beds together while covering up the gap, you have a comfortable queen bed! Have Kids? The flat screen TV's in each bedroom, as well as in the living room will keep them busy when you are looking for some down time. The XBox gaming system is a complete hit with the kids, and lets parents unwind quietly! (Can you tell I have two boys) :) Wireless Internet Access: Wireless Internet Access if Free. XBox Gaming System: Condo comes with an XBox gaming system and 15 games. There are a variety of games for all ages. There are two coin operated washers and dryers in a separate room just outside my unit door. If there were any closer, they would be in my unit!

The apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The location, right on the beach and within walking distance of restaurants and shops, was great. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this host to others looking to stay on Siesta Key

Looking forward to having you back Susan! Regards, Gary
I set this up for my wife and her sister-in-law and Gary went above and beyond to make her birthday stay memorable. He went so far as to purchase a bottle of champagne for me! My wife could not stop raving about the condo and view
Gary was very communicative and helpful. We loved being able to walk right out onto the beach. We drive a pickup and it was great to have overflow/guest parking so close to the building.
My family has stayed here a couple times we always try and book this unit we love it!

There is no better feeling from a property owner than when guests come back year after year! That alone makes all of the updates and renovations to my unit worth it! I look forward to having you back again and thank you for always treating my home, like your home! Gary
What a great Gem! We had a wonderful time very cute little condo and the beds were super comfortable. Thank you, Gary For sharing your place with us. We will be back!
This unit is exactly as advertised. The location was easy to access the beach, public transportation and an easy walk to coffee shops, markets, and ice cream parlors. We will definitely be looking to book this same unit in future trips to Siesta Key.

Thanks Paula for the extraordinary review and I look forward to having you back soon! Regards, Gary
This was the best place for us to stay on Siesta Key! The condo is very well appointed and had everything we needed. The beds were very comfy and so was the living room furniture. The beach is excellent- the sand is like soft sugar. The beach is also very wide so there was lots of room. It never felt crowded. The washer and dryer are right next door and that was very convenient. Just a great place for us!!
We had a great stay! The beach and location were exceptional—just steps away and close to everything. The apartment was nice and clean, with a well-equipped kitchen and good-quality hardware. It was quiet at night, which made for a relaxing stay. The only downsides were that there was just one elevator, which sometimes took a while, and I wish the master bedroom had a king-sized bed instead of a queen one. Overall, a great experience!
Gary was a great host - condo was in great condition and it had everything we needed. The building itself is old and dated but the individual property was great. Gary was also very responsive to all my questions through my stay.
Great condo, excellent beds, and showers, perfect location on the beach. We had a great time and would definitely recommend the condo for others looking for a nice holiday on Siesta Key.
Loved the condo...even though it was tiny...and we would have liked to had a king bed.It was very clean and very comfortable..Great location..friendly neighbors...very pleasant.

I always appreciate feedback from my guests. One benefit of having two twin beds is the flexibility of putting them together to make a King size bed. I have an apparatus that pulls the mattresses together and I have a king size topper mattress to make an extremely comfortable King size bed. If you decide to come back, request the twin beds be put together. Also on my website is the layout of the condo, and the total square footage. A majority of the condos on Siesta Key are between 850 and 1100 ft². If guests are looking for something larger, I would suggest renting a house inland. Thank you again for the great review and I'm so glad you had an amazing time on Siesta Key, which once again was voted the best beach in the United States for 2025!
About the host
Hosted by Gary Knaak
Hi my name is Gary Knaak, and I can't begin to tell you how much our family loves going to Siesta Key! I have 2 boys, and each year they look forward to our April family vacation on the white sandy beaches of Crescent Beach. To us, Crescent Arms is home, and we look forward to sharing our home with others to experience the awesome beaches of Siesta Key!
Why they chose this property
All you need to do is vacation in Siesta Key with the beautiful white sandy beaches once, and you are hooked for life.
What makes this property unique
What I hear all the time about the condo that makes it different than most of the rentals on Siesta Key is I have carpet instead of tile throughout. Everybody comments how much cozier it is, and how nice it is with younger children. Also, the unit is close to Stickney Point Bridge, so getting into Sarasota is easy and quick. We are also located within walking distance of a grocery store and several places to eat.
