Point of Rocks, Siesta Key Beachfront Vacation Rentals

Point-of-Rocks is a small, quiet, residential neighborhood on Siesta Key, a few blocks south of where Stickney Point Road connects Siesta Key to Sarasota, Florida. Anywhere you stay in the Point-of-Rocks area is within walking distance of South Village, the center of commerce and convenience on this part of the island.  What's really nice about the Point-of-Rocks area is that the streets are quiet, there are plenty of trees, and you could easily walk to everything you need in terms of food and supplies, not to mention the beach. Although there is only one access path to the beach at Point-of-Rocks, that really is enough because the neighborhood is quite small and the path is located near the beach vacation rentals.

 
There are MANY resorts on Sara Sea Circle. In fact, Sara Sea Circle is a private road connected to Midnight Pass Road. Sara Sea Circle is block or so north of the Point-of-Rocks neighborhood.

Here is another view of Sara Sea Circle looking west, toward the Gulf of Mexico. It dead-ends at the beach.

Crescent Plaza, among others, serves the Point of Rocks and Crescent Beach area. Whatever you need, bank, post office, gas station, food, ice-cream, bar, grocery store, it's close by. Below is a photo of Crescent Plaza.

Point-of-Rocks Road intersects Midnight Pass Road, and goes straight to the beach. At the end of Point-of-Rocks Road is the Siesta Sands Resort, and beside it is a foot path to the beach. That access (pictured below) is the only public access to Point-of-Rocks beach. The rest of the beach access in this neighborhood is on private property.

Here it is, beach access #13, at the end of Point-of-Rocks Road on Siesta Key. This access leads to the best snorkeling beach I know of on the west coast of Florida. To the right of the photo you can see the Siesta Sands Resort. To the left is new construction that appears to be another beach resort.
