The undeniable beauty and incredibly white sands of the famous Siesta Key Beach is responsible for attracting many real estate shoppers and visitors to this magical isle in the Sarasota Bay. While the oceanfront condominium towers tend to get a lot of attention, properties like Excelsior Siesta Key are often overlooked.

The Excelsior condominium was completed in the early 1980s at a time when the beaches of Siesta Key were getting a lot of attention from real estate developers. Rather than following the general trend of placing condominium towers right on the beach, the Excelsior developers took advantage of the island’s natural beauty to build a dignified residential complex situated closer to the Sarasota Bay than to the Gulf of Mexico.

Most units available at Excelsior have living areas that measure between 1,300 and 1,700 square feet. Most of the 161 units have two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Prices start in the mid $700Ks to $1.2M. The Excelsior units are strategically positioned to capture dramatic views of both the Gulf of Mexico and the Sarasota Bay. No other property in Siesta Key offers such an impressive panorama. Latest pricing at Excelsior Siesta Key Florida will be found below if there is inventory.

The lush landscaping, shaded paths and gazebos make the property one of the most refreshing points on the island. Leisure activities are plentiful at Excelsior: heated pools, a shuffleboard court and a picnic area are just some of the amenities.

The location of the Excelsior Condos in Siesta Key is also at an advantage. Two island shopping centers are within walking distance. The complex is also located just off Midnight Pass, one of the island’s main roads providing direct access to the Stickney Point Bridge, the city of Sarasota, and the Tamiami Trail.
