Welcome to the Pineapple House Sarasota where location, quality, cleanliness and relaxation are key.

The house has a beautiful resort like private backyard w large SOUTH facing solar heated pool (approx 24' x 17'), a hot tub, gas fire pit and gas grill in a fenced yard which is surrounded by lush palm trees.

***Location location location…
Best of both worlds- close to beaches, walkable to local restaurants and a few miles from famous downtown Sarasota restaurants, shopping and nightlife. Several restaurants, grocery and shopping are less than a half mile walk on the paved trail that runs along the East side of the house.

Only 5 miles to the large SIESTA KEY BEACH parking lot and 6 miles to LIDO KEY BEACH. Both beaches have large FREE public parking lots and a concessions stand with good hot food and refreshing frozen drinks (including alcoholic). Siesta Key Beach's sand is 99% quartz, which makes it white and powder soft. Siesta Key has two lively areas for dining..... The Siesta Key village and an another area by the South bridge. Be sure to visit the Siesta key Village and also Saint Armands for great shopping.

Downtown has too many restaurants to name such as: Marina Jack’s, O’Leary Tiki Bar and grill, Owen’s Fish Camp, too many to name but a fun area to walk around and dine. Theater and arts are big in Sarasota. Check out the local theater events and shows. You can also take sightseeing boat cruises from the marina.

The hot tub is stand alone and can be heated to your desired temperature. My main focus is a clean rental.
