INCOME-PRODUCING VACATION HOME This fully furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath vacation home is located within Sun Outdoors Sarasota, a highly popular, all-age resort offering pools, waterslides, hot tubs, a tiki bar, food, live music, miniature golf, billiards, sand volleyball, pickleball, gym, indoor pool, themed weekends and much more.
Conveniently located off Fruitville Road near I-75, the resort is minutes from UTC, Benderson Park, golf, Polo fields, Siesta Key and numerous day-trip destinations. The surrounding area continues to grow, with new restaurants, shopping and entertainment located near the resort entrance.
Originally constructed as a park model, the home was completely redesigned and renovated in 2022 with new drywall, windows, flooring, cabinets, appliances, plumbing, ductwork, electrical components, lighting, as well as exterior siding. A permitted enclosed addition nearly doubled the original living space under air. A new roof was installed in 2025, and the home has passed a four-point inspection for insurance purposes. Private parking accommodates up to four vehicles, with additional space for a golf cart.
SHORT TERM RENTAL Opportunity - Sun Outdoors permits short term rentals with a seven-night minimum stay, provided the resort’s established minimum rental rates are followed. This presents an especially rare opportunity in Sarasota County, where short-term rental options are generally much more limited.
Owners maintain control of their calendars, allowing them to reserve dates for personal use and offer the remaining dates to vacation guests. When hosted through Airbnb or VRBO the platform currently collects and remits applicable county and state taxes on the host’s behalf.
Because Sun Outdoors is classified as a resort rather than a residential community, the property is subject to a consecutive 90-day annual non-occupancy period. Owners may select those dates, and many choose the slower late-summer months for maintenance and upkeep. Vehicle storage on the site is permitted during the non-occupancy period.
Proven Rental Performance - During approximately 12 months of Airbnb availability, the home generated nearly $25,000 in gross booking revenue despite several weeks being reserved for owner use. Every guest review received during that period was five stars, demonstrating strong guest satisfaction and demand for the property.
The purchase price includes the home and furnishings, providing a turnkey opportunity for personal vacations, continued weekly rentals, or a combination of both. The home is located on leased resort land; no land is included in the sale. Current lot rent is $1,228 per month and includes water, cable and amenities.

I love the flexibility of being able to use it when I want to and rent it out and make back all of my fees and then some. I love that everything is new and fresh. There's ample parking.
