If you want to stay near Siesta Key without paying beachfront condo prices, our two tiny homes in Sarasota sit about 3 minutes from Siesta Key Beach for a fraction of beachfront condo prices.

Tiny Home vs. a Siesta Key Condo or Hotel
- Price: a tiny home on the mainland side costs a fraction of a beachfront condo, and there are no resort fees.
- Space outdoors: you get a fire pit, BBQ grill, hammocks and gardens instead of a balcony.
- Gear included: bikes, kayaks and beach gear are free, so there is nothing to rent.
- Quiet: the island property is enclosed by vegetation in a residential neighborhood, away from Siesta Key Village crowds.
- Trade-off: you drive or bike about 3 minutes to the beach instead of walking out the door.
