Siesta Swim House
Siesta Swim House | Private Heated Lap Pool | 10 Min to Siesta Key | Dog Friendly
About
Swim laps before breakfast. Spend the morning on Siesta Key's famous quartz sand. Come back to your own heated pool by early afternoon, no sunburn, no crowds, no waiting for a chair. As the sun sets, grab dinner at one of Sarasota's top-rated restaurants, all within 10 minutes. This is Siesta Swim House: a fully renovated 3-bedroom home built around a private indoor pool you can use every single day, all year.
The Space
Siesta Swim House is built around one standout feature: a full-length heated indoor lap pool that runs the entire rear of the home. Three walls of sliding windows open the pool room to the outdoors when the weather cooperates, or keep it enclosed for a shaded, private swim any time of year. It is usable every single day of your stay.
The home sleeps six across three bedrooms:
- Primary: King bed, en-suite bathroom
- Guest Room 1: Queen bed
- Guest Room 2: Queen bed
Fully renovated throughout. Clean finishes, modern design.
Kitchen, Living and Dining: Full kitchen with modern appliances, open dining area, and a comfortable living space. Everything you need for a week-long stay or a full season.
Outside
Step through the back of the pool room onto a paver patio overlooking a quiet private pond. A calm, shaded space good for morning coffee, grilling, or decompressing after a beach day. Private and peaceful -- no crowds, just water and greenery.
Large driveway out front with parking for multiple vehicles.
