About the host
Hosted by jon sundal
Hi! We’re Jon and Deb—lifelong travelers, beach lovers, and grateful hosts. Over the years, we’ve camped under the stars, explored coastlines, and visited family across continents. Travel has taught us to slow down, connect, and embrace new places. We hope our cottage gives you the space to relax, reflect, and feel at home during your extended stay.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers a rare balance of tranquility and convenience. The streets are quiet and shaded by a beautiful canopy of mature trees, creating a peaceful setting that feels distinctly Old Florida. It’s ideal for morning walks, evening strolls, or simply enjoying the slower pace of island life. At the same time, you’re within easy biking distance of Siesta Key Village, the beach, restaurants, and local activities, making it simple to enjoy everything the area has to offer without needing to drive.
What makes this property unique
What makes this property stand out is the rare balance of peaceful waterfront living and easy access to everything Siesta Key offers. The canal-front setting provides a quiet backdrop for relaxing, boating, fishing, or simply enjoying the view — with occasional manatee sightings adding a memorable touch. Multiple screened outdoor spaces make it easy to enjoy the Florida climate comfortably year-round.
At the same time, you’re just a short bike ride to Siesta Key Beach, the Village, restaurants, and local activities. The thoughtfully updated home, included bikes and water gear, and the walkable, tree-lined neighborhood create a more relaxed and immersive island experience than many typical vacation rentals.
