About Sunset Beach
Sunset Beach is a gated community of 3 mid-rise buildings that sit directly on the Gulf, toward the south end of Longboat Key. With over 60 residences, it offers a great take on beachfront living. Most homes are 2-bedroom, 2-bath residences with larger corner and penthouse residences available as well.
The amenities here keep life easy and centered on the beach. A large resort-style pool sits beside the sand, and a walkway leads through the green space straight to the private beach. Residents also enjoy a club room with a fire pit, a grill area, kayak storage, under-building parking, and elevators in each building. An on-site maintenance team keeps the grounds in top shape year round.
The south-end location is one of the best on the island. The golf courses of the Longboat Key Club are right next door, and Publix, banks, and everyday services are just up the road. St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota are an easy drive south. True to its name, the community faces west, so the spectacular sunset over the Gulf comes free with every evening.
