A lovely, well-maintained unit in a great locaton

This was our 2nd stay in Longboat Key and this place exceeded our expectations. The unit is in great shape and has everything we could possibly need. Attenton to details is obvious. The location is great; a few yards away from the ocean; breathtaking sunrises! We will look for this place again next year!

Our anniversary vacation

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: This place is beautiful. Very clean n honestly everything you need is furnished. It is quiet n the Gulf of America is just breathtaking. The only downfall is not a lot of restaurants in area that are crazy high prices. We got groceries and most cooked in. The screened in patio was very nice. Saw raccoons several times. We visited the new aquarium which is very nice. We thank you for your hospitality and sharing your condo with us. Loved that it was on first floor. Sincerely The Cuffs from pa

Fabulous location - beach & bay

We loved the location of this property - less than 5 min walk to semi-private beach, bay dock 2 min. walk, restaurant and ice cream shop 1 block away! Condo was clean, well furnished, and stocked with dishes, beach towels, a few beach toys, cooler, even an extra beach bag. Pool was clean and never busy (though water temp was hot in July). Beach was clean, lounge chairs and umbrellas always available, and ocean calm for floating some days and small waves for boogie boarding other days. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful Condo in a Peaceful Location

The Beach Castle resort in general has that “old Florida” feel. It brought me back to me childhood vacationing in Florida. Beautiful landscape, lovely pool and great access to a very quiet beach. Our unit was newly updated with tasteful beach decor and with every necessity you could think of for a comfortable beach vacation. Comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen, peaceful screened in patio overlooking the bay, a cooler/beach bags/beach towels/sandy toys for the beach. We would love to return in the future!
