Wonderful stay!!

We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful condo and very nice amenities. Loved the decor. The beach was so lovely. Publix and a few places to eat within a few miles so a car would be needed or Uber. No restaurants delivered, but was able to Instacart Publix. Grills on site and fully stocked kitchen. Comfortable beds, beach towels and free laundry on site. Plenty of beach loungers and you can borrow an umbrella, but it’s first come first serve from the office. Definitely recommended.

Sand Cay

Lovely condo, right on the beach. Under 10 minutes from a Public on the island which was very convenient for sticking up on groceries. The owners had a pack and play and a high chair available so setting up with our 2 year old was a breeze and we didn’t have to try to fly those items with us. Awesome beach, would recommend.

About the host

Your host

Jeff and I are happy owners of Unit #309. We live in Grosse Pointe Farms, MI and have two daughters. In a few years we look forward to spending more time at Sand Cay and enjoying this slice of paradise that we love to share.

Why they chose this property

We have vacationed at Sand Cay Beach Resort for many years. Jeff's parents owned #217 during the 1990's and early 2000's. We loved experiencing all the Longboat Key and Sarasota and surrounding areas have to offer.

What makes this property unique

Sand Cay Beach Resort is located right on the beach. No streets to cross or long walks. And the benefit of our condo is you pay for Garden view but the view from the dining table and balcony on the 3rd floor actually has a view of the ocean! It gets great reviews so plan your trip in our unit #309 today!
