Internet Oceanfront (more...)

Our condo is directly on the beach and is direct oceanfront (Gulf-front). When we travel, we're not interested in being steps from the beach, or having a "view" of the beach"., we want to be smack dab right on the beach and have a direct unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico. We chose to purchase and offer the closest condo to the Gulf of Mexico on Siesta Key. With wide-open floor plan, you will enjoy direct Gulf views from the master bedroom, living room, dining room and kitchen. This is beachfront at its best!

As you can see from the aerial photo, Fisherman's Cove is built on a very narrow strip of sand and sits directly on the beach. The Gulf of Mexico is approximately 100 feet from our lanai and master bedroom window, and the bay inlet is a similar distance from our east balcony and guest bedroom window.

This unique location gives us the best of both worlds - the beach and magnificent sunsets to the west, and sunrise across the bay to the east. We are so close to the Gulf of Mexico that some of our guests have said, "sitting on the lanai is like being on the lido deck of a cruise ship," and virtually all our guests exclaim, "the pictures simply don't do it justice." Please note we rent Saturday to Saturday only.

A309 features 13 feet of floor to ceiling sliding glass panels across the western view of the gulf, and a large picture window facing the beach to the south. To perfect the view there is a custom tempered glass rail, hence, no "picket fence" view like many other condos. With our design you enjoy the ambiance of a totally unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico.

Many other condos feature a fixed screen that makes it impossible to take good sunset pictures. Our design uses sliding screens, which enables you to take great sunset photos from the comfort of the lanai. You can see one of these sunset photos in the gallery.

Both of the bedrooms are large and easily accommodate king-size beds with nightstands and outlets for charging smartphones on both sides. Both bedrooms also have large dressers and chests as well as large closets for storage. We equipped both bedrooms with king-size Jamison pillow-top beds. Jamison is well-known as the supplier for the highly rated beds used in Marriott hotels, and the bed we selected is two notches up from the one Marriott uses.

The master suite has a private En-suite bath with a large, tiled shower and a direct beachfront view of the Gulf of Mexico. With its 4'x6' sliding window, you will be lulled to sleep at night by the sound of the waves, the perfect prescription for relieving stress!

Your guests will enjoy a beautiful sunrise view with their large bay-front window. Your guests can also close off the guest wing of the condo, so they have private access to their full bathroom that includes a tiled tub and shower combination.

For your convenience, your reserved parking space is straight across from the entrance where you will find an elevator and carts you can use to move things between your vehicle and your room.

For us, vacations have always been about creating memories, and taking time to unwind from the demands we face in the crazy world.

At the south end of Siesta Key, you escape the traffic congestion and maddening crowds that are common on the northern end of the island. At the south end traffic moves smoothly along tree-lined streets and you won't have to fight crowds to find a spot to sit on the beach. There are three good restaurants with indoor and alfresco seating within a short walk, and a dozen more within two miles, so you may decide there is no reason to venture beyond our little slice of paradise.

Also within a short walk is a full-service marina, a playground for kids, and secluded picnic area with a grill that is perfect for a sunset cookout. Our guests are also welcome to use the gas or charcoal grills you'll see by the bay and boat docks.

Kayak rental and tours are also within easy walking distance, as are boat rentals, Jet Ski rentals, fishing guides and other activities. If you rent a kayak for the week, you are welcome to use our custom designed kayak launch. While kayaking you could see both a variety of birds and manatees which are known to frequent our area.

If you bring your own boat, or rent one during your stay, you are welcome to use any of the boat docks at Fisherman's Cove free of charge.

The fishing is great from both our beach and the bay. Snook, Sheepshead, Ladyfish, Flounder, Cobia and various members of the Jack family are common, and if you stay with us midyear, don't be surprised if you hook into a large Tarpon.

While we enjoy the sporting activities, sightseeing and night life, our favorite ritual is more laid back. For us, it's all about the view, the sound of the waves and the wide open expanse of beach that stretches for miles.

The beach in front of our condo was "re-nourished" with fresh sand from the Gulf during the spring of 2016, and is perfect for walking. If collecting seashells is on your agenda, you'll appreciate the fact that our beach offers the best shelling on Siesta Key!

To our north you can walk for approximately a mile and a half before you come to the famed Point of Rocks. When you walk the beach to the south you'll pass by one small condo, about six private residences, and following that, you'll enjoy more than a mile of totally undeveloped beachfront. As you walk further south you'll actually cross over to very exclusive Casey Key (connected to Siesta Key).

Whether you are planning a romantic getaway or a family vacation, Fisherman's Cove is a great destination. Please contact us with any questions. It would be our pleasure to help you plan the ideal Siesta Key vacation.

Free WiFi, free cable TV and full-time office and maintenance workers on-site with phone numbers you can call 24/7 for support. This is your time to relax, and we do everything we can to insure the only surprises are good surprises.

Cancellation Policy: One hundred percent (100.00%) of the total booking charges (less $450.00 cancellation fee) will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 60 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 60 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued.

Dina and Russ Kruk Year Purchased: 2020 About the owner: There are few things more relaxing than taking long walks at the water's edge. The sound of the waves and feel of sand between our toes washes away stress like nothing else. Speaks: English
