Reviews
Comfortable Stay Right on Beach!
5/5 We enjoyed our first time visiting Longboat Key! Our unit was comfortable to sleep in and we were able to enjoy the pool and the beach. The owner had two chairs and an umbrella we were able to use on the beach and it was perfect!
Fell in love

Longboat in the spring
4/5 We love this area to vacation, and we have stayed at the same vacation resort 5 or 6 times. This was our first time with this particular owner-check in and out was a breeze.

Perfect!
5/5 It was the perfect location. Beach chairs, umbrellas available. Super nice people were there at the same time. Many public beaches with a short drive too! Great restaurants both on the island and just across the bridge.

The best thing about this rental was the location. The beach was steps away and the resort itself was very nicely landscaped. The unit, however, left a lot to be desired.
1/5 The best thing about this rental was the location. The beach was steps away and the resort itself was very nicely landscaped.
The unit, however, left a lot to be desired. The furniture was ok but the lighting in the living room was awful. Our main complaint was the dirt and grime in the bathroom. I took pictures of the grime on the door, and the thick coating of dust on the air vent and a wall decoration. Even worse than that was the black hairs that were on the sink and towels when we arrived. Clean towels were brought to us.
Also, the key was not in the lockbox when we arrived and we had to wait 30 minutes for someone to bring us one.
We didn't let these things ruin our stay but they should not have been an issue for the price we paid! We'll not stay in this unit again!
