Sapphire Shores Muse - Private Pool Near Ringling & Sarasota Bay
Welcome to Sapphire Shores Muse
Experience Sarasota from Sapphire Shores Muse, a stylish 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom private pool home tucked into the beautiful Sapphire Shores area. Designed for guests who appreciate comfort, style, and a great location, this contemporary retreat puts Sarasota Bay sunsets, arts and culture, downtown dining, and some of Florida's most celebrated Gulf Coast beaches within easy reach.
Whether you're planning a week in the Florida sunshine, an extended getaway, a work-from-Sarasota stay, or your annual snowbird escape, Sapphire Shores Muse gives you a sophisticated home base for experiencing Sarasota like a local.
YOUR PRIVATE SARASOTA RETREAT
Step inside to a bright, open living space with modern furnishings and plenty of room to settle in. The home's spacious kitchen is a standout, featuring stainless-steel appliances, abundant counter space, an oversized island with seating, and the cookware and essentials you'll need for everything from morning coffee to dinner at home.
The living area is designed for comfortable downtime, complete with a Samsung Frame Smart TV, while 500 Mbps Wi-Fi makes streaming, video calls, and remote work easy.
Upstairs, two comfortable bedrooms offer fresh linens, ample storage, and privacy—especially appreciated during longer stays. With 2 full bathrooms plus a convenient half bath, there's plenty of space for couples, friends, professionals, or a small family traveling together.
A full-size **washer and dryer upstairs** makes extended stays even easier.
PRIVATE POOL & OUTDOOR LIVING
One of the best parts of Sapphire Shores Muse is your private outdoor space. Spend an afternoon relaxing beside the screened pool, settle into the outdoor seating with a good book, or enjoy dinner outside after a day exploring Sarasota.
Pool towels and pool essentials are provided so you can settle into vacation mode from the moment you arrive.
WALK TO SARASOTA BAY SUNSETS
One of the neighborhood's hidden gems is nearby Sapphire Shores Park, approximately a 10-minute walk from the home. Head down in the evening to watch the sun set over Sarasota Bay, with beautiful views across the water toward Longboat Key.
The Sapphire Shores area also places you near Sarasota's renowned cultural attractions, including The Ringling, Ca' d'Zan, the Historic Asolo Theater and Sarasota Jungle Gardens.
BEACH DAYS & ISLAND EXPLORING
When you're ready for the Gulf, you'll have several destinations to choose from. Spend the day enjoying the famous quartz sand of Siesta Key, explore Lido Key and St. Armands Circle, or head north toward Longboat Key, Bradenton Beach and Anna Maria Island.
Your location also makes it easy to experience both Sarasota and Manatee Counties during a longer stay—without limiting your vacation to a single beach community.
DINING, SHOPPING & NIGHTLIFE
Sarasota's dining scene is part of the experience. Head downtown for restaurants, cocktails, live music and shopping, or make an evening of St. Armands Circle.
Local favorites throughout the Sarasota area include Owen's Fish Camp, Indigenous, Columbia Restaurant and The Shore. For an evening out, downtown Sarasota offers cocktail lounges, rooftop destinations, live entertainment and nightlife.
Prefer an adventure on the water? Sarasota and the surrounding barrier islands offer boat rentals, fishing charters, dolphin and sunset cruises, kayaking, paddleboarding, parasailing and Jet Ski rentals. You'll also find bicycle rentals and scenic trails for exploring on land.
CONVENIENT FOR WORK & EXTENDED STAYS
Sapphire Shores Muse isn't just for vacation. With high-speed Wi-Fi, comfortable work-friendly spaces, a fully equipped kitchen, laundry, private parking and the conveniences of a true home, it's an excellent option for snowbirds, traveling professionals, healthcare workers, relocations and extended Sarasota stays.
The home provides convenient access to Sarasota Memorial Hospital, Doctors Hospital of Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch Medical Center, as well as other medical and business centers throughout Sarasota and Manatee Counties.
EASY TO GET HERE, HARD TO LEAVE
Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) is conveniently located nearby, making arrivals and departures especially easy. Tampa International Airport (TPA) and St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE) provide additional options for travelers coming from farther afield.
At Sapphire Shores Muse, you can spend the morning exploring Sarasota's museums, the afternoon beside your private pool, and the evening walking to Sarasota Bay for sunset.
Stay for a week—or settle in a little longer—and discover a side of Sarasota that goes far beyond the beach.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and an ironing board.
