Crystal Sands is a Gulf-front condominium at 6300 Midnight Pass Road on the Crescent Beach end of Siesta Key, in Sarasota County (community and brokerage guides, 2026). It was built in 1970 and pairs a 12-story tower of an S-shaped design with villa-style units, for roughly 152 residences directly on the white sand.
Floor plans run from one to three bedrooms, generally in the range of about 899 to 1,643 square feet per published community guides, and the complex offers two heated pools, a clubhouse, a barbecue area, covered parking, a private beach area, and security. Confirm the exact unit size, layout, and what conveys per the specific listing.
Because this is a 1970 high-rise on the coast, the diligence is the building. Florida now requires a milestone inspection and a structural integrity reserve study for condominium buildings of three or more habitable stories, with key deadlines in 2025 and 2026, so a buyer should read the most recent inspection and reserve reports, the reserve funding, and any special assessment history before writing an offer (Florida DBPR and 2025 legislation; confirm per association).
The pitch is a direct Gulf-front position on one of the most awarded beaches in the country. The work is the financial and insurance read: reserves, milestone status, flood and wind coverage, and the in-season rental rules, all verified per unit and per the association, not assumed from the view.
