Thanks,

New York Times Travel Article Online today, and our resort is mentioned!!!

This year Stephen Leatherman, known as Dr. Beach and director of the university’s Laboratory for Coastal Research, named Siesta Key’s beach as the second-best in the nation. (Hanalei Bay on Kauai, Hawaii, was first.)

“I use 50 criteria to rate every beach, and in terms of sand alone Siesta Key is definitely the best in the world,” Dr. Leatherman said. Science backs up the hyperbole: Siesta Key’s beach is 99 percent limestone quartz, which stays consistently cool and silky.

It's so lovely today, clear blue skies, sun beaming off of the bay waters. Just absolutely gorgeous! We have guests from our waterfront units out on the dock fishing, sunbathing, kayaking and even trying out the new water bikes. Its extremely relaxing, picture laying in one of our hammocks overlooking the bay just relaxed reading a good book or how about throwing some hamburgers/hot dogs on the gas grill for lunch, and then taking a swim in the pool with the kids. There is so much to do at our resort, its amazing. Definitely, something for everybody, whether your a couple, or a family with children and pets.
