Dear Vic,
Thank you so much for the restful yet exciting vacation this past Easter break. Siesta Key is truly a hidden paradise right here in the U.S. We have been to Sarasota before, but until you have stayed on Siesta Key Beach you have not experienced the breathtaking sunsets, calm waters and crystal cool sand of Crescent Beach.
Our typical day in paradise included waking up to my yummy muffins and coffee, taking a morning stroll on the beach and watching the dolphins playing in the shallow waves. We packed our beach cooler for the day and rode our bikes to the beach, which was faster than cars during hte holiday week…definate plus to rent bikes during busy season:) We chose either the public beach for a little more action with our 11 & 14 year old and his friends or the quiet access just across from Stickney Point Bridge. Both were great, however, I preferred the secluded and quiet access where it was more peaceful and private.
There is something for everyone in Siesta. Our son ran in the Run for the Sea Turtles 5K RAce and won his age division:) Our youngest enjoyed building sand castles and biking with mom every day. The parasailing was everone’s favorite. (www.siestakeyparasailing.com. Mo was the best!) My hubby enjoyed the Tampa Bay Rays games and golf with his friends, and I enjoyed the feeling of being on a tropical island in the Caribbean. The Daiquiri Deck, Gilligan’s Bucket-O-Rum, and the yummy Oyster Bar…can’t wait for our next visit.
Vic~ Home & Condo Rentals was the most accomodating group we found. Thank you! When you have so many choices, it was so wonderful to chose the BEST for our first trip to Siesta. The unit was beautifully appointed and we enjoyed the location very much. Thank you for the extra supplies to get us started. It really seemed like our home away from home.

My husband and I rented a private condo for the first time and loved it. Siesta Key beach is absolutely beautiful. We had a great time just relaxing on the beach or at the condo pool everyday. We went out to dinner to a different restaurant every night. We went up to Lido Key one night just to see what it was like. Definitely liked Siesta Key much better, it is such a pretty beach compared to all the rest. We rented a jet ski one day just to play around in the bay. The place we rented from was right around the corner from the condo. Everything was perfect, couldn’t have asked for anything else.
I’m so glad that you and your husband enjoyed your stay at Our House At The Beach, Vikki. It sounds like you definitely made the most of your vacation! Thank you for sharing some of your experiences with us. Just give us a call when you’re ready to come back, you’re welcome any time!

Vic,
thanks so much for getting us this tremendous condo for my wife Karen and myself. The weather was fantastic and we enjoyed the beach everday. Spent a lot of time in the village at the Salty Dog and Gilligans. Ate on St. Armonds and at the Boatyard. We both have been coming to Siesta Key for years. This was our first trip together. My father used to stay on Siesta Key and eventully bought a place on Longboat Key. reall y enjoyed the condo. next year though would like to get one right on the beach. Walked everyday and enjoyed the company of my lovely wife.
Thank you for your comments, Ted. It sounds like you had a wonderful vacation. I’m so glad that you and your wife enjoyed your stay at Our House At The Beach. Just give me a call when you’re ready to return next year and we will find you a place on the beach. Sea Shell #308 will be perfect!
