At Sarasota Surf and Racquet Club, you will enjoy our two spacious heated swimming pools.

We also feature a fitness center and four, on property tennis courts: two clay tennis courts and two Lackold tennis courts. We offer tennis programs, lessons, and summer camps through our association with 'Total Tennis.' Another popular characteristic is our beachside barbecue grill and picnic area - it doesn't get any better than cooking, eating, and playing on the beach!
Take a Tennis lesson on site, rent a boat and cruise the Intercostal, swim in the ocean or heated pool, relax in the lounge chairs on the cool white sand, walk the beach, or just people and dolphin watch. Work out at the on-site workout room. Cook your hamburgers on the Beachside Barbecue Grill and enjoy the sun and surf.

The owner's notes were excellent and made the arrival, access, check-in experience very easy. Great view and access to the beach. Everything was as promised. We hope to return soon. We had some friends visit us for a beach day. They were so impressed, they were looking to rent themselves for their upcoming anniversary.

We absolutely LOVE this condo. We have been coming here for a few years now and our kids only want to stay in Lynn’s condo! You are steps away from the beach, the views of the pool and ocean are spectacular, and you are on ground level. The condo is newly renovated and has everything you need and more! I love that it is furnished with beach towels, large coolers for the beach, and comes with a 30 laundry card for the laundry room that is right across from the condo. It has an open floor plan and our kids love that. We feel extremely lucky to get to stay here!

thank you for the wonderful review. Your family is fabulous. Very warm outgoing people. Hope to see you next year. Thank You, Lynn
We had the best week! Lynn was an incredible host. She was quick to answer questions, helpful, and provided amazing recommendations for our stay in Siesta. The condo was perfect. The beds were so comfortable....my husband is even on a search for the pillows in the master! The condo was STOCKED with beach toys, chairs, towels, anything you might want for a day at the beach. Lynn went above and beyond expectations of what was provided to make our week as relaxing and comfortable as possible. Thank you for sharing your place with us. We wish we could reserve for next year, but no surprise it is already booked!

Ahhh Thank you Nina for your great review. Hope you come to stay at my condo again. Thank You. Lynn
Perfect location … easy access to beach and pools! Host provided all the beach amenities you need so great for those flying. No need to rent a car due to the free frog hop transportation or choose to walk 1 mile into town!
This vacation was wonderful! The condo was very well appointed with plenty of cookware, basic spices, and plenty of towels, beach as well as bath. Our hostess, who is very sweet and quick to respond to questions, provides a money card for the washer and dryer which was steps from our door. This place is on the ground floor and the very short walk through the yard is beautiful. The beach is the prettiest I’ve seen. I highly recommend Spearfish restaurant for great food and service. Stay here if you are coming to Siesta Key
Literally swam with a dolphin, floated with a couple pelicans and shelled til my back gave out. All within a couple minutes from the comfy and clean condo that was tricked out with everything a beach lover needs! Awesome memories
This condo is a great location. It has everything you need for a weeks stay with 2 kids and 4 adults. It is very close to the laundry room. The kids had so much fun playing on the beach!
We have been staying at this same condo for years... and it never disappoints! The location is great, with its proximity to beach, pool and great access to parking .Some renovations made for a pleasant surprise. Updated kitchen, bathroom counters new dining room furniture... very nice! Our host Lynn, is great, always available if needed. We will continue renting for our annual family vacation!

You are fantastic, Norma. So nice to have your family.

The condo included all the beach amenities you’ll need, including an abundance of towels. The first floor location was ideal and the property services were very good!
Grounds, room, and beach were nice. Enjoyed the view from the lanai for the senior citizen for sure. Codo conditions were definitely satisfactory and off topic enjoyed finding seashells, manatees swimming by, soft firm sand, clean beaches, nice warm water, etc…Beds slept well. Enjoy yourself!

Hi Heather,
I just noticed your review from your stay at my condo the first week in May.
So sorry for not responding sooner. Thank you so much for taking the time to give me a great review.
Thanks, Lynn
This condo exceeded our expectations in every way! It was large, very clean, and had everything we could have needed. It is steps from the pool and beach which is perfect for our kids who spend every minute in the water. Lynn thinks of all the extras including games/puzzles/wagon to pull everything to the beach/beach chairs/floats/boogie boards/lots of sand toys! If you have kids, this condo works out perfectly!

About the host
Hosted by Lynn Hock
Hi folks, I was originally a snowbird from Shelby Twp, Michigan. My family visited many vacation spots in Florida but when we visited Siesta Key, we knew that we found the most beautiful place in Florida. We knew that this is where we were going to retire. We bought our Sarasota Surf condo in 2001 with the idea that we would like to live there after we retired. In the meantime, we rented it and people loved it so much that we decided to keep it as a rental and buy a residential condo close by.
Why they chose this property
We bought our Sarasota Surf condo because that is where we wanted to live. The complex was a premier, beautiful complex and we chose our condo because it was ground floor with easy access to the beach, pool and parking. No waiting for elevators. We paid a premium price for our condo because it was in the most desirable building within the complex. It was closest to the beach and pool.
What makes this property unique
Being on the ground floor, you are a part of nature. When we were looking for a condo to buy, we stayed at many condos on upper floors. We found that on the upper floors you lose touch with nature and all that is Florida. You end up looking over the roofs and air conditioners of neighboring condos. On upper floors, you don't hear the ocean, see the palm trees sway in the breeze, see the beautiful flowering bushes. Being on the ground floor...you are a part of nature and all that is going on around you. Plus, the easy access to everything makes it seem like a home not a high rise condo.
