The Palms-Private Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Private backyard-5mi to beach

“The Palms" is a single-family home with a heated private pool in the heart of Sarasota. The home is 5 miles to the #1 beach in the USA, Siesta Key Beach. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bath with a screened-in outdoor sunroom. The fully private, fully enclosed outdoor space is one-of-a-kind with a modern pool, hot tub, BBQ grill, fire pit and lounge chairs for guests to lounge in style.

THE SPACE:
Welcome to The Palms! A 3 bedroom/2 bathroom single family home in a quiet neighborhood with private pool that sleeps 6 comfortably.

The Palms is 5 miles from Siesta Key Beach, #1 beach in the USA (approx. a 15 min drive).

COMMON AREAS:
The KITCHEN has beautiful cherry wood cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances (refrigerator, stove/oven, microwave and dishwasher). It is fully stocked with pots/pans, knives, cutting boards, cups, plates, silverware and coffee maker. Plastic plates and cups are provided for use outdoors and around the pool. The kitchen island faces the living space, and it has a breakfast bar with 2 bar stools.

The LIVING ROOM has a large leather sectional. The shiplap and stone fireplace wall features a 65" smart TV with cable and Netflix. The LED fireplace makes us nostalgic for winter…but without the winter weather! Large windows let in plenty of natural Florida sunshine throughout the home.

The screened SUNROOM has a table and 4 chairs for dining or breakfast in the sun. The full-size WASHER and DRYER are located to the side of the sunroom.

THE POOL & BACKYARD:
Lounge poolside in the FULLY PRIVATE POOL AREA and soak up the warm Florida sun! The 8,000-gallon POOL IS HEATED and typically kept at 85 degrees, so it is perfect for swimming year-round. The pool is approx. 3-6 feet deep, with a shallow sundeck for lounging while dipping your toes in the water. Outdoor pool lounge chairs round out the pool space for sunbathing.

Grill outdoors on the propane BBQ GRILL and enjoy the evening sunset. During the evenings, relax outdoors in the HOT TUB or by the FIRE PIT. The backyard and pool area are fully fenced all around, offering complete privacy.

BEDROOMS:
The PRIMARY BEDROOM SUITE has a queen size bed, nightstands, dresser and large closet, in addition to an EN-SUITE BATHROOM with standing shower. The sliding glass doors allow direct access to the pool.

The SECOND BEDROOM has a queen size bed, nightstands, chest and medium-size closet.

The THIRD BEDROOM has two twin beds, nightstand, chest and closet.

The SECOND BATHROOM is accessible from the entire house, with a bathtub and vanity with large counter space.

Super happy with The Palms!

We enjoyed our stay at The Palms very much. The property was very clean and was thoughtfully furnished for comfortable seating for all. The outdoor area was a great place to unwind after a busy day. The property had everything we could need and more. The beach gear, including the wagon for hauling everything, was greatly appreciated. It was an unexpected bonus to find things stocked in the kitchen like condiments, coffee and vegetable oil as well as laundry pods and dryer sheets. Ron was a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely stay there again!

Awesome Getaway

From the moment we booked our stay at The Palms, the communication was awesome. We arrived to a clean house and all of our questions were answered quickly. The house and back yard area were awesome and exactly what we needed to spend the week relaxing in the sun. Everything you need is there. We will definitely be back!

Excellent property. Private backyard and close to Siesta Beach

First of all, communication with the property owner is excellent. We arrived just after hurricane Ian. We were kept up to date about condition of property with regular updates prior to arrival. The house is bright and clean. The kitchen is the best equipped that we have experienced with a rental. Plenty of towels, including those for the beach/pool. There are several coolers, and equipment (chairs, etc) for taking to the beach if you choose to do so. We were supplied with plenty of good quality toilet paper and paper towel. Enough for our entire stay and beyond. Literally all we would have needed to bring was our clothing and food. Everything else one would need was provided. Wifi/Internet is great both inside and out. The bright spot is the backyard/pool area. Completely private. We had already been at Siesta Key for a week, so other than going out for groceries we did not leave the property. Hot tub and pool are awesome. Pool is heated and gets both sun and shade as the day goes on. We felt completely safe in the neighborhood. Highly recommend this property for couples, or an entire family.

Loved “The Palms”

We absolutely love “The Palms”. Everything is perfectly done at this house. The location is central to just about everything you would want to do. The house is furnished exactly as we would have it if it was ours. The Local Host Ron is awesome. Nothing to dislike about it!

Fabulous

If I could give this 6 stars, I would. My husband and I were looking for a relaxing place to unwind from the cold here in Michigan and this was the place. It was clean, had everything we needed and the backyard was a dream. Communication was perfect. One thing to note is that it is located in a quiet neighborhood but within 15 minutes to Siesta Key, downtown Sarasota and St. Armands circle. It was perfect for us.

This was our second stay at The Palms. We had such a wonderful time hanging out by the pool. The house was very clean and everything you would need is there. All you have to do is show up. The location is phenomenal and just a short drive to the beach. The hosts are great to deal with. We will absolutely be back again for another stay. Five stars all the way!
