Excellent property (on the Bay) with everything needed for a very nice LBK stay. Quiet. Easy to relax but close to a lot of activity and several very good restaurants.

We fell in love with the screened lanai.... Never even used the main living space as this outdoor space was exactly what we were hoping for! Beautiful condo, great location, some of the cutest decorating tidbits I have seen and very comfortable. Even had a up close encounter with several Manatee down at the dock!!! The privacy of this location was idealic!!!

As good as any 5 star hotel

This is our 2nd year here. We love it and will be back. The quality of everything is excellent. And the cleanliness is 5 star hotel quality. Nikki is a great hostess and treats us like we were her friends coming to stay. The property is relaxing and has been quiet for us on both visits

Spectacular!

I almost hate to share how perfect this place, I’d sort of like to keep it my undiscovered secret. Beautiful, quiet spot with a great view. Condo is just as the pictures show, immaculately kept and stocked with everything you need. Owner very responsive if you have questions or problems. Perfect place for a vacation.

Perfect location, beautifully decorated, peaceful and quiet!

Our stay at Harbor Villas was amazing. My family and I vacation at Longboat Key every year for the past 30 years. The combination of the location on the island, the pool for the kids and the boat slip made this a perfect option for us! The decor was nicely updated and has a beautiful beachy feel. We felt like we were checking into a beautiful hotel. The unit was equipped with everything you may need and more. The owner Nikki was very acomidating and amazing to work with! We will definitely be returning to this beautiful condo next year!

This is our 3rd or 4th year coming to this property. And each year we stay longer and longer. We absolutely love it. The property manager, Nikki, is wonderful. The condo is clean. The layout is wonderful. The decor is extremely beautiful. We live there is an enclosed sundeck as well as a small outdoor space as well. We eat each meal in the sun deck and every morning drink our coffee watching the beautiful boats and birds. It feels like home away from home.

Lovely stay

We’ve stayed here about 5 yrs ago and loved it. The condo is decorated beautifully. Kitchen is well stocked (suggestion needs hot pads) . Place was clean, however after 5 yrs maybe a carpet change in the bedrooms to tile like the rest of the house because they were showing wear and dirt that’s impossible to get out. They did have workmen in a couple days we weren’t expecting because they were doing plumbing work in the condo above us and needed access to the pipes from our bathroom. Could have cleaned up better the first day, second day, no problem. It’s nice to watch boats go by, even saw dolphins one day and a manatee! Pool is big, not crowded that overlooks a small marina. It needed cleaning. Had some black algae spots. But didn’t keep us from swimming. Never saw a pool cleaner the whole week. Overall a very nice place and a relaxing vacation.

Beautiful Condo on LBK

This unit is outstanding. It has everything you could possibly need. It’s roomy, immaculate, and was very quiet during our stay. We slept well on the comfy beds, had chairs for the beach, beach towels for the pool, and excellent communication with the manager throughout our stay. The hot tub wasn’t working, the pool was really cold and is shaded during the warmest part of the day, but everything else was absolutely perfect. We were thankful for the elevator, so no stairs to traverse. The weather couldn’t have been better. Not a drop of rain, sunny skies, and warm temps but not warm enough to make you sweat as the breeze was gentle and very refreshing. Highly recommend this unit and VRBO.

This Property Never Disappoints

As soon as you step into this property you can relax and start to unwind. The property is clean, well cared for and has excellent facilities, decorated with special touches you would not usually expect from a rental. The location is superb with easy access to the beaches, resturants and attractions of Longboat Key and the other barrier islands. There is lots to do in the area but the view from the lanai watching the wildlife and time spent by the pool are our favourites. We are returning visitors and always feel in very safe hands with Nikki the property manager who communicates with you every step of the way. We would highly recommend this property and will hopefully be returning ourselves very soon!

Picture window views to boats on the bay

We stayed there for 2 fabulous weeks in the Spring of 2024. The unit was well outfitted with everything you could need. The pool is nicely heated and the hot tub is not painful to get in. Especially loved seeing the family of eagles everyday. We played tennis, pickelball, spent time at the pool, beach, kayaking, biking, boating, etc. The area restaurants and shopping were great too👏👏

We have never visited Longboat Key prior to this year…we loved it. The weather was terrible while we were there but that didn’t prevent us from enjoying our stay. Sarasota is awesome! The condo was clean, well kept and comfortable. Beds were nice, showers great and kitchen well appointed. Property manager helped a lot. Great stay!

Lovely way to spend New Years

Lovely condo and Nikki will bend over backwards to make your stay complete. We were in the area for New Years and it was so festive. The lights at UTC are a must and the boats on the bay decorated for the holiday were so fun. Harbor Villa is our speed. It is laid back and very quiet. A lot of older people enjoying a slower pace. Perfection!
