Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was short, but enjoyed very much. We are planning to visit again this coming summer. It is walking distance to the beach, so our girls enjoyed the beach and the pool! It was clean, and well provided as far as dishes; linens; towels; and the washer and dryer helped out.

Bad communication

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wow I have emailed RVA two times telling them how dissatisfied I was with their company. No one has bothered getting back to me. The communication was so bad anytime we tried to call the person would say oh the managers are in a meeting so you can’t speak to them we’ll get back to you, which they never did, I came last week We were informed late on Tuesday that the water was going to be turned off, but no exact time we had told them that we’re leaving Wednesday never told us what we needed to do. We were getting out before the bridge closed and the hurricane came. No one that seems to work there cares about the people that are renting from them and I will never use rva again or tell anyone else to use your rva again. The unit had a great view, but it was dirty. The comforter on the Murphy bed was torn underneath. I wonder if the owner of the condo knows how mismanaged their place is. Lastly other than us showing up to get our keys, no one was ever in the office

The Beach at Long boat key

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been staying at The Beach Resort for 3 years now and we love it! We take our grand daughters, we can watch them from our room. And the walk to the beach is very short. The room we stay in has a washer & dryer so bathing suits are fresh, we can eat in or go out. We appreciate being able to stay in such place.

Connecting door

Fantastic view, great location. Beach was wonderful, shopping and restaurants nearby. Small but nice private deck. Couches and chairs were comfy. Beds were too hard, sheets were scratchy, pillows flat (we bought pillows and cases). You could not lower the thermostat below 74, so it was doubly hard to sleep. Worst of all, there was an uninsulated connecting door to the next unit. We heard everything they said and watched (including karaoke until midnight). We also smelled their cooking.

Quiet and relaxing beach experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were looking for a place with easy access to the beach and this had it. The unit was a little dated, but clean. We were more interested in the access to the beach than an upscale place to sleep, which is really the only thing we used the unit for. We do wish the balcony were larger and on the side that faces the beach, but it is not a deal breaker that would keep us from renting it again (although another unit with a beach-facing balcony would be chosen over this). The beach was clean and quiet and not crowded like the touristy section north in Anna Maria. This was tranquil.

March 2024

The property was pretty much as described. There were 4 of us in the unit. There is a guest bathroom on the first level that we used. We used the stove, microwave, laundry, and dishwasher. They all worked great. It would be nice to have some upgraded pots and pans. The furniture is a big dated, but was in good shape. The deck is on the side of the building, not directly facing the beach. It would have been nice for the deck to be on the beach side of the unit. Overall, it’s a nice corner unit in a great location.

Rethinking next year

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in this until last summer. Truly enjoyed the location and our stay. It was worth rebooking this year. However, we were disappointed to find the same broken recliner and uncomfortable couch (expected it would’ve been updated). We would like to stay again but with no comfortable place to sit will have to rethink it.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit we rented was dated. The bedding was old and not fresh. Very thin sheets and towels. The livingroom was not comfortable. The couch and tv were so far apart viewing was impossible. And biggest complaint was that the place smelled so musty and moldy. We talked about leaving but felt we had reserved so stayed. Basically ruined our vacation.
