Welcome to Beautiful Sarasota and the Gulf Gate Getaway - 2 Miles to Siesta Key!

The Gulf Gate Getaway House is an ideal location at the south end of Sarasota. Many cafes, bars and restaurants are very close by, not to mention the South Bridge to Siesta Key! Even Publix grocery store is only a 10 minute walk away. If you want to leave your car behind, ride one of the 4 bikes in the garage for the week. Ride to the beach, CB’s Marina, Captain Curt’s, Daiquiri Deck, Screaming Goat Tacos, Piccolos Italian Deli or grab a drink at the Classic Thirsty Turtle. It’s all here for you. This area of Gulf Gate is known for great ethnic restaurants from Japanese, Italian, Thai, Greek, German, etc.

The Gulf of Mexico waters are a perfect place to relax. Grab a beach towel, beach umbrella & chairs to head to Crescent Beach for a day of swimming in the Gulf, picking up sea shells, fishing, or building sand castles with the kiddos! You won’t regret your time in Sarasota at the Getaway House.

Enjoyable Vacation

We greatly enjoyed our one month stay here. The house is well maintained, very clean, and we enjoyed the open floor plan. The neighborhood is beautiful, safe, and great for taking long walks or biking. The location is also perfect for walking to many wonderful restaurants. Siesta Key is a short ride away.

Near perfect

We were very lucky to find this place, our previous place was cancelled in December. The house was lovely, location was great, easy walk to many restuarants and stores, and a short drive to Siesta Key.

Great location in Gulf Gates

Best attribute of this rental was its location, which is a short walk to several strip shopping centers with lots of restaurants, service businesses, a grocery store, and more. A public access beach on Siesta Key is only a 15 minute bike ride away, bikes available with the rental. The decor of the house is nice, and we enjoyed the bean bag throw and grilling/dining in the private/fenced back yard. Neighbors were nice, too!

About the host

Hosted by Roni Gold

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Roni. I am a Sarasota Realtor of 20 years and I grew up in this beautiful town. My husband Nate is a horse trainer from Stamford Connecticut. We love to travel, surf, rock climb, hike and spend time with our boys.

We currently live on a 5-acre horse ranch in East Sarasota, next to the Myakka River State Park. We have two boys (Nash and Bodhi), 2 dogs (Rooster and Burny), chickens, cows and a big pig named Henry!

Why they chose this property

We purchased the Getaway in 2018 as an investment but also because we love this area of Gulf Gate and the south end of Siesta Key (Crescent and Turtle Beach)!

While it may not be new and has some quirks, the Gulf Gate Getaway is a sweet little spot. We truly love this place and hope you enjoy your stay…
