Happy Holidays! The spirit of joy and creativity is alive and well here in Siesta Key.

Our restaurants, attractions, performers and shopkeepers have been busy as Santa’s elves coming up with safe and fun ways to celebrate the holidays. Here at Midnight Cove, our vacation condos are the perfect place to enjoy time with your family. Each has its own separate entrance, and with full kitchens, dining areas and expansive outdoor areas, there is plenty of room for the family to gather while keeping a safe distance from others. We hope you’ll join us this year at Midnight Cove, and while you’re here, why not check out some of the fun activities coming to the Siesta Key and Sarasota area?
