Picture this: you wake up to sunlight through the palms, coffee already in hand, no plans in sight. The kids are in the pool before breakfast, giggling & splashing while you soak in the quiet. By afternoon it's disc golf & mini putt on the turf, bocce turning competitive, corn hole bragging rights on the line. As the sun sets, everyone gathers around the fire pit & floats in the pool for a movie night, the picture glowing against the house, cafe lights glowing, popcorn passed float to float.

Getting into Saltwater Siesta is simple. The front door is secured with a smart lock deadbolt, so there are no keys to juggle or lose. You'll receive your personal entry code before arrival and can come and go freely throughout your stay. You'll have full access to the private backyard, heated pool, game room, fire pit, griddle, and screened lanai. A few closets holding cleaning supplies stay locked for safety.
...and everyone's up an hour past bedtime because nobody wants the day to end.
That's what a stay at Saltwater Siesta feels like. A resort-style retreat that sleeps up to 10, with a heated pool, a private putting green, and a garage game room built for exactly this kind of togetherness. You came here for a vacation, but you'll leave with something better: a few new stories your family will keep telling long after you're home.

💛 WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR
Saltwater Siesta was built on three generations of Florida family memories, and we want to share it. It's for multigenerational families who want a home base big enough for grandparents, parents, and kids to spread out without ever leaving each other. It's for milestone celebrations, like a 50th anniversary, where everyone wants to be under one roof. It's for sports families in town for IMG Academy or spring training who need space to unwind after a long day at practice or the soccer field or ballpark. It's for snowbirds escaping winter for a few weeks who want resort-style amenities without a resort price tag. And it's for any vacation where the whole point is simply being together. If that sounds like your trip, you'll feel right at home here.
This home is perfectly located for easy travel around the Sarasota, Bradenton and nearby beach destinations, with incredible easy access to the Sarasota International Airport at just 3 miles away- a hop skip and a jump from the airport! Most top attractions are just a short drive away, making ride share services, rental cars, or your own vehicle the best options for getting around. Free parking is available on-site.
Need a ride? Uber & Lyft are widely available. And be sure to check out the open air trolleys and fun bus options on the islands. More info in our Welcome Book!
