A livelier scene with food, drinks, and the weekend drum circle is just a short beach walk north. Point of Rocks reef is only 60 yards south.
The Location No car needed. Nestled on a quiet street with no traffic, businesses, or public parking. Walk 7 minutes to Siesta's top eco-adventures—boat, bike, jet-ski, and fishing tours. Prefer to relax? Sunbathe on the balcony, nap in a hammock, or enjoy Siesta's top-rated seafood, ice cream, and waterfront dining. Just a short stroll to favorites like Daiquiri Deck, Sniki-Tiki, Crescent Club, and Orange Octopus.
Reef Snorkeling Siesta Key is already paradise—now add one of the Gulf Coast's best snorkeling spots! Just 60 yards south, Point of Rocks offers safe, shallow waters filled with tide pools, colorful marine life, and shelling treasures.

The ideal family reunion spot
We had folks fly in from all over the country and this amazing property had room for everyone, several great communal hang spots, and everything we needed to have a hassle-free stay just steps from a gorgeous beach. We hope to be back!

Perfect Family Reunion spot!
Perfect fit for our group!! We rented all 5 units to accommodate group of 22. Having the entire place allowed us to take full advantage and enjoy all the areas for breakfast to late night gatherings. The owner & management team were incredibly responsive to requests. Tons of toys to use on-site and at the beach... we used the kayaks, the lawn games, the bicycles etc. There are plenty of chairs and umbrellas and towels. You really can show up and relax! We catered group dinners & cooked a full on BBQ on the two large propane grills. A person in our party was able to visit the location ahead of our visit so we knew exactly what the place looked like and it matches the pictures. Rooms are comfortable and had everything we needed.
We'll stay here again or visit another of the owner's property for our next family reunion.

Great spot for large group
Rented the whole Inn for a large group. Lots of beds. The outdoor dining space was great for gathering. Ample cooking space within the units and small appliances needed to cook and serve were available which was nice. Everything was clean upon arrive. Great access to the beach and beach chairs were very nice to have.

Classic Florida
This place is very cool and convenient to the beach. There are no ocean views but it’s an easy walk across the street. The house has everything you need. Owner was very helpful and answered our questions immediately.

Great Place for Friends Trip
The property was in a great location and had plenty of room for 22 of us. About a 3-4 minute walk from the beach as the beach access is right across the street from the main entrance. If you're looking for somewhere elegant or luxurious this probably isn't the place for you, but nonetheless it was a good property to spend a long weekend going to the beach.

Wonderful location
We had a wonderful experience at Old Man and The Sea!! Our family and friends rented the entire property for a senior trip for our boys. The property was clean and the location was phenomenal!! Communication for questions and comments was answered in a timely manner and Dan and Matt were very helpful! We would rent this property again.

Family reunion
The old man and the sea was great for a family reunion. We had 25 family members who came through across the week - 5 different families and we fit nicely in the Inn. The beach was very close and is beautiful. Checking in was easy except we didn’t receive the combinations to the rooms until the day we arrived. It would have been better to have emphasized that fact early on. All in all it was a wonderful reunion thanks to the place we stayed
