About Marina Bay
Marina Bay is a condominium inside Bay Isles on Longboat Key, set just south of the Longboat Key Club Moorings marina along Harbourside Drive. Its units are spread equally over three buildings built from about 1990 to 1993, each with ground-floor parking and five elevator floors of four units. Residences run floor-through, with screened lanais facing Sarasota Bay and balconies facing the key and the Gulf.
Landscaping screens the grounds from neighbors and Harbourside Drive, and paths circle the property. The outdoor complex has a large pool, a spa and a gas grill, with two tennis courts, an exercise room and car washing and charging stations. Residents use the Bay Isles Beach Club on the Gulf.

Janelle is fantastic. We recently were able to sell our home in one week at 1% over asking price. I believe that the professional photos and staging coupled with Janelle helping us price competitively led to this success. We closed in one month and are so very grateful for Janelle and her help with the sale of our property.

The video she created for our...
