Longboat Key · Lido Key · St. Armand's

The quiet side of the Gulf Coast.

An insider's guide to Sarasota's barrier islands, and a curated collection of luxury homes and condos for the kind of stay you don't want to end.

Why here

Three barrier islands, each with its own temperament, and some of the quietest luxury beach on Florida's Gulf Coast.

Longboat Key keeps its sand uncrowded and its pace slow. Lido Key pairs a wide public beach with mangrove tunnels and a walk to the shops. St. Armand's Circle draws everyone in for the evening. Together they make one of the most livable stretches of coast in the state, especially for the month-long stays this collection is built around.
