Siesta Key Condos for Sale at The Crescent

Siesta Key is a favorite vacation spot with a world-famous beach. The Crescent, built in 2007, offers condos for sale right on this world-famous beach. With a liberal rental policy, owners can recoup some of their maintenance expenses by renting their units during season.



One of the first questions a seasonal renter asks about condos when searching for a rental is "how far is it from the beach?" This is a must see complex if you are planning to purchase a second home and wish to rent it part-time. If you are an investor in Siesta Key condos and just want to rent, it's a "no-brainer."


Siesta Key FL is located approximately 90 minutes from Tampa International Airport. Take the Clark Road Exit in Sarasota from Interstate-75, cross the Stickney Point Bridge, turn right (north) and Crescent will be on your left.


The Sarasota MLS currently reports only 5 condos available for sale at Crescent Siesta Key. Prices range from $1,249,000 to $2,599,000. Amenities at Crescent feature: on-site management, concierge, swimming pools as well as famous Crescent Beach.
