This place is EXACTLY what we were looking for!! We live in Orlando and take a beach trip at least once a year. We've stayed at many places up and down both coasts. Our favorite is the Gulf Coast so we searched for a nice place anywhere on the Gulf. We found this lovely Turtle Beach condo and decided to give it a shot. I've always loved Siesta Key so, the location seemed perfect. Everything was FANTASTIC! We just can't say enough great things about it. Check-in was easy and the communication from Carrie, the owner, was excellent. Any questions we had, she answered right away! This unit has one of THE BEST VIEWS of the whole community! It's right on the corner, with a huge balcony looking directly at the beach and water out the back and down the coastline to the side. Also, all the windows on the side have this beautiful coastline view too...even the window out the kitchen, so you can see the beach and the Gulf while cooking or doing dishes. We saw so many BREATHTAKING SUNSETS right from the condo. We could even see the sunsets from the master bedroom. The property had EVERYTHING WE NEEDED. Plenty of towels, beach chairs, cookware, dishes, utensils, blankets, smart TVs in every room, etc. We didn't have to go get anything other than food to eat for the week. The owner even left us a nice bottle of wine to enjoy while watching the sunset which is a super sweet gesture and we really appreciated it! We met several other vacationers while we were there and everyone was so nice. Many of them were regulars who come back to this property every year...so, that tells you how great the location is. The unit is literraly a stones throw from the water. You can hear the sound of the waves so loud and clear, very relaxing! It's like listening to one of those beach soundscapes machines, only you're really there! The front of the building overlooks a small body of water called Blind Pass which feeds into Little Sarasota Bay. There are boat docks there that you can fish from and a boat launch a few hundred yards away. We rented some kayaks and paddled around, very peaceful! Since the property is at the very south end of Siesta Key, there's no through traffic. We've stayed in many beachfront properties and have never been this close to the water, in such a beautiful and peaceful location. We'll definitely come back here as soon as we can. If you're wavering on whether to book this property, trust me, JUST DO IT! You will not be disappointed!! :)
