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 condo was perfect for our stay in Siesta Key! It is very close to the beach and there were plenty of towels and beach chairs we could use. The condo is on the smaller side so pack light. I would stay here again!

Great value

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.

Great10/10 – Excellent stay!

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!

Great location!

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

Perfect Stay

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!

Great location and wonderful stay

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!
