The Beach
Skip the crowds and commercial feel. Coral Cabanas offers Key West-style charm and beach access #13—quieter, more private, and just across the street. With no public parking nearby, this cove is one of Siesta's most exclusive beaches. The white quartz sand, tide pools, and calm, clear water are perfect for relaxing. A livelier scene with food, drinks, and the weekend drum circle is just a short beach walk north. Point of Rocks reef is only 60 yards south.

The Location
No car needed. Nestled on a quiet street with no traffic, businesses, or public parking. Walk 7 minutes to Siesta's top eco-adventures—boat, bike, jet-ski, and fishing tours. Prefer to relax Sunbathe on the balcony, nap in a hammock, or enjoy Siesta's top-rated seafood, ice cream, and waterfront dining. Just a short stroll to favorites like Daiquiri Deck, Sniki-Tiki, Crescent Club, and Orange Octopus.

Reef Snorkeling
Siesta Key is already paradise—now add one of the Gulf Coast's best snorkeling spots! Just 60 yards south, Point of Rocks offers safe, shallow waters filled with tide pools, colorful marine life, and shelling treasures. Most days you'll spot chameleons, sponges, mother-of-pearl shells, conch, and maybe even dolphins or turtles. Ideal for exploring by foot, snorkel, paddleboard, or kayak.

    This vacation rental was wonderful! Excellent communication from the owner and very easy access to beaches, attractions, and surrounding towns. Everything was clean and comfortable. Great amenities with beach chairs, kayaks, paddle boards, towels, etc. We were able to just show up and relax!! We will definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

    We stayed two days at this cute little apartment. Location is right next to the beach. Although the building is old and it's a pretty small space and street area, it was clean and the price was right. Dan is a great host and always takes care of us at his other properties as well.

    In addition to a great location the apartment was clean and well cared for. It is a small place, one bedroom, queen bed but with the cot and pullout sofa could accomodate 5. The place has every amenity one vould ask for including beach chairs and umbrella which was wonferful. The beach is a 3 minute walk. White powder sand,peaceful blue water. Very handy to many beaches, restaurants and shopping. We loved it! It seemed small when we got there but the location and smenities made it truly a great place to stay. Couldn't ask for more

    The apartment was very clean, quiet, and fully equipped with everything we needed. It's located on a peaceful street just a short walk to the beach via a sandy path. Beach chairs, umbrella, and towels were provided, which was a nice touch. Having a private parking spot was convenient, and the location is great—within walking distance of restaurants and the bus stop to Siesta Key Village. The beach was absolutely beautiful with soft white sand and clear water. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

    Excellent stay for my husband and I. We loved the location and how close it was to the beach. We explored other areas of Siesta Key, Sarasota, Venice Beach, and Anna Maria Island. The location was great for getting to all of these places. There were great restaurants and things to do nearby. The unit was very clean and had space for us to make breakfast each day and relax. We took a walk on the beach each morning right across the street. Dan (the owner) was very nice and great with communication. We will definitely come back!

    The amenities at the condo were spot on! we used the grill and washer and dryer frequently The supply of beach chairs and umbrellas was a PLUS walking distance to the beach, I am definitely re- booking for another vacation with Gertrude. Your staff was polite and knowledgeable. Helped me get the internet password and the front door system

    I had a very good time. The room was very comfortable, and it was in a very good state of maintenance. The owner (Dan) was very friendly and helpful, and I had an excellent opinion about him and the rest of the staff managing the facility. We arrived early at the place (more than an hour before check-in) with a small kid. Instead of making us wait till the right check-in time, we got access to the room right away. The unit is very close to the beach (just across the street), and it has everything you need to have a great time. Loved it. Highly recommend this place.

    We had a great stay overall. Daniel the owner was very hospitable and made sure we were taken care of during out stay. We loved that is was just walking steps to the beach and also to restaurants and bars. I also loved that they included a bottle of wine and two waters as complimentary add ons to the stay! The property also has umbrellas and chairs for use at no cost so that is very much appreciated. Thanks again and we hope to be back soon!

    Accommodations were as listed. Property was very clean and well appointed. The beach was just across the street. (Which as a side street wasn’t busy at all). Restaurants were a short walk and if one wished to go to the village, there were a couple “free” options available. Manager Dan was always prompt responding to inquires. I will definitely consider staying here on my next visit!!!

    Very clean cottage located very close to the beach. Just steps away. Love the chairs outside of the room to relax in the morning and enjoyed having the beach chairs available to us and the umbrella. Wonderful trip with the exception of somebody backing into our car and leaving no information for us to follow up.

    This was our first time in Sarasota and Siesta Key and we loved everything about this property! It is so unique and we enjoyed being so close to the beach and to Siesta Key village but we really liked that the neighborhood is so quiet! The unit had everything we needed and we strolled the beach each day and enjoyed walks to the Village and down Midnight Pass. We want to stay here again!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this great property! The unit was clean, comfortable, quiet, and so close to the gorgeous beach! Access to both Siesta Key Village and Sarasota is so convenient! We love the quaint beach vibe feel of the neighborhood! We enjoyed beach walks as well as a long walk along Midnight Pass Rd. We especially liked paddling out to Point of Rocks and then getting ready to head for dinner. This place can't be beat and we will definitely be back soon! Highly recommend!
