Budget friendly at worlds best beach! Hammocks, tropical plants, bars, dining, entertainment nearby!

Get it all at Coral Cabanas, your beach paddle and snorkel retreat! Just eight steps from the path of Siesta Key's best and whitest sand beach! 4-min stroll to top seafood and waterfront dining, and 60 yards from fishing snorkeling paddling and exploring at wonderous Point of Rocks Reef! Enjoy westerly sundeck, hammocks, alfresco grilling and lounging, no traffic or car required, and complimentary snorkel gear and locks when you bring your paddle-board or kayak. *The listing you've selected is wonderful, but it's "budget accommodation" and, once in a while, it's guest experience noise from the unit above. *Although larger than our other 2BR, priced like a 1BR, and with the only private patio on the property, if there are little kids running around above you it could sound like elephants.

What could top visiting Siesta Key? Enjoying Siesta's calmest clearest water, whitest sand, and best sunsets. Plus being able to stroll paddle or snorkel in search of hidden gems at secluded Point of Rocks reef!

THE CORAL CABANAS AT A GLANCE
- Beautifully designed tropical Siesta Key Victorian
- Hammocks, alfresco-lounging and dining, westerly facing deck
- Just 8-steps from yard to sand path of best beach on island
- 60-yard beach walk to Point of Rocks, the best near-shore reef in Florida
- Walk 4-min to best seafood, ice cream, daiquiri bar, tiki-bar, and beer house on Siesta
- Best snorkeling, shelling, fishing, exploring and paddling on Siesta Key in just 4-min
- 12 dining options within 0.5 miles, 3 waterfront restaurants within 4 miles
- Walk 2-min to Siesta Breeze free island trolley
- Boat, bike, jet-ski, sport-fishing tours, marina and other rentals 4-min away
- Most secluded beach neighborhood, ideal for quiet strolls, jogs and rides

THE VIBE - Escape the institutional feel of hotel-condos and commerciality of Village shops. Coral Cabanas offers Key West-style charm and the world's best beach! No traffic, businesses, or public parking. Enjoy hammocks, westerly decks, and vibrant tropical surroundings, all while being close to the island's best bars, entertainment and eco-activities! Perfect for those seeking secluded simplicity near the world's top beach.

THE LOCATION - No car required. Just 8 steps from Access #13 and Siesta Key's whitest sand and calmest clearest water. Walk to the top eco-activities and dining including the highest rated seafood, ice-cream, daiquiris, and Siesta s only waterfront dining. Our closest beach is a cove with the calmest/clearest water on the island. Fifty yards south is a limestone reef with tide pools, colorful marine life, miniature conch, chameleons, dolphin, and turtle. It's perfect for exploring by foot, snorkeling, fishing, paddle-boarding or kayak. If you prefer relaxation above activities you can sleep on the beach, sit in the ocean, sun on the west balcony, swing in the hammocks, or walk to town for drinks at spots like Daiquiri Deck, Sniki-Tiki, Crescent Club, Orange Octopus. Each unit has a fully equipped kitchen, there is a gas grill downstairs, and you can find fresh fish at Crescent Market or catch your own nearby.

THIS IS A BUDGET ACCOMMODATION - The listing you've selected is wonderful, but it's "budget accommodation" and, once in a while, it's guest experience noise from the unit above. Although larger than our other 2BR, priced like a 1BR, and with the only private patio on the property, if there are little kids running around above you it could sound like elephants. It doesn't happen often and if you're in need of a siesta key vacation but it's not quite in your budget. This property is just right for you.

SUPPORT POST BOOKING - I understand vacation time is precious, and I will make sure you get the most out of it. My number is the only contact information you need. My units are at the top attractions on the island. Cars are never required, but you will have private parking near the unit. Check-in any day of the week at any time using your private door-code. No requirement ever at checkout. Free early check-in when possible. Never hidden fees or solicitations. Every unit including this one is available for instant booking.

When you book with me you get a fully accessible and knowledgeable owner/host and reliable advice from an approved local expert. I can recommend the best spot for fishing or fresh fish, Michigan or Ohio State games, romantic-dinners marriage-proposals or singles, Eco-tourism, family friendly activities, or safe ways to lose your kids when you need a break. For the less extroverted, every booking comes with an unabashed guidebook detailing the property, all my favorite things to do in the area, and never any advertisements or solicitations. This is the only rental offering of its kind on the key.

Superb stay!
The room was just as described. Very comfortable, you can feel at home here. My wife and I, along with my 82 y/o mother, and two of our grandsons, 9 & 12 had a great stay. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Beach access is across the street, then just a short walk to the beach. We brought along groceries to cook while there. There was a grill outside, hammocks, and nice outdoor setup. I hope to go back for another visit.

Perfect for us!!
This is the second time we stayed at the Poor Boy. We love it. We met friends in Siesta Key and we all met at the Poor Boy. The outside area is so welcoming with the outside grill and Tiki bar. There is plenty of areas to be outside after a long day at the beach. We walked down and had coffee every morning at the beach.The Poor Boy has everything you need! We will be back!!

Super Cool Location But a Little Lacking.
90 second walk to the ocean. 5 minute walk to restaurants and bars. The place was a bit dingy and, if you’re on the first floor, you’ll definitely hear the people above you. Great common area with a grill and a couple tables.

Great location
Dan was incredible to work with and was great at communicating in a timely manner! Everything you could possibly need for your stay is available to use both in your lodging area and the community areas as well. The location was perfect! Steps away from the silky smooth sandy path to the beach and a short walk to restaurants, shops, etc. The outdoor community garden area was beautiful and perfect for relaxing or eating a meal! All five of us enjoyed our stay, there was plenty of room for us to sleep and hangout! Would definitely recommend any of the lodging options, Dan made the check in seamless. You won’t regret staying here!

Relaxing Stay
The place is just as advertised. It is an older unit but well kept, giving it an old Florida feeling that you loose with new places. I would recommend putting a copy of the old man and the sea on the coffee table. The location could not have been better. It is just across the street from public access 13 to the beach. The unit is well equipped for a comfortable stay. Having the laundry outside the door was actually a positive and not a hinderance. The common areas expanded the useable space with a great cooking grill. The patio gave the place a nice outdoor seating area as well.

Everything you need and so much more!
We are a family of 5 and have been vacationing in Siesta Key for a few years now and this is one of our faves. The unit is perfect to eat, sleep and shower. The outdoor accommodations are like no other unit, we enjoyed the tiki bar , huge gas grill and all of the beach accessories. We greatly appreciated all of the beach accessories that were in great condition, chairs , umbrellas coolers, boogie boards, very accommodating. Selfishly want to keep this unit a secret but honestly too good not to share !

Better than advertised!
Our group enjoyed every moment of our stay. The location is supreme; the parking is assigned and easy for two SUVs. The exterior common areas are inviting and well thought out and BBQ grills are large enough to feed an army. Oh and the ample beach chairs and toys were greatly appreciated! The interior is bright, clean and had room of the 7 of us comfortably. The kitchen is over-stocked so cooks will feel right at home. The property is not advertised as a luxury stay. And while it's not that, it is perfectly suited to those wishing to enjoy the beach and the surrounding dining and night life. Book with confidence and enjoy

BEACHES!!!!!
What a beautiful place to vacation. The property was everything and more than expected. So close to the beach and town. Would fully recommend this property to anyone, nothing to fancy buy just what we needed for four 18 year olds and a grandma. Went to several beaches and really enjoyed the dog beach in Vinice.
