Welcome to Your Ideal Getaway in Gulf Gate – Just 2 Miles from Siesta Key
Nestled in the highly desirable Gulf Gate neighborhood, this thoughtfully appointed 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and convenience—just minutes from the world-renowned Siesta Key Beach. Whether you're planning a relaxing escape or a family adventure, this home is designed to turn your time into lasting memories.
The open-concept layout features a modern kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The spacious primary bedroom includes a king-size bed and a private ensuite bathroom, while two guest bedrooms offer queen-size beds. For a seventh guest, there is a queen sofa bed in the laundry area that we are happy to have made up.
Step outside through the sliding patio doors to discover a serene, fully enclosed backyard with a private pool—ideal for sunbathing, dining al fresco, or entertaining. While the pool is not heated, it will be much cooler between November and April.
If work calls while you're away, you'll appreciate the large, height adjustable desk.
This pet-friendly property includes a fully fenced yard, so your four-legged family members are welcome too. Should you have any specific needs or questions during your stay, we’re local to Sarasota and available to respond promptly—we’re here to help ensure your experience exceeds expectations.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any special requests. We look forward to hosting you!

About the host
Hosted by Christopher Rielly
Transplants from Toronto, Canada, we have escaped the cold weather and fell in love with Sarasota FL! Our home is only 15 minutes to downtown, 5 minutes to Siesta Key, and a couple minute drive to the Gulf Gate Village shops and restaurants.
I have 15 years of experience in the hospitality industry, and loved it so much, that we purchased this home (our 2nd vacation rental) to continue on the path. A link to our other vacation property is in the description. We live in Sarasota, and are quick to respond to any requests you may have during your stay. We hope you love our house as much as we do!
