Lovely

This is our second time at the Turtle Crawl Inn. We liked this unit even more than the last. Our host was wonderful and so was the nice lady at the front desk. The unit is clean and comfortable with an amazing view. It has all you need for a relaxing vacation. We will return. Long Boat Key is great. We love Tyler’s ice cream, Lazy Lobster and Harry’s which are all 5 minutes away by car.

Oh, those sunsets!

This condo was just about perfect. Great location; wonderful layout; as beachfront as you can get with chairs, umbrella, and towels provided; nicely equipped kitchen. A glitch with an appliance was quickly corrected by maintenance. A few areas that the cleaning crew missed, but overall a fabulous property. I would rent it again in a minute.

Perfect for our young family

Turtle Crawl was the perfect fit for our family. With kids aged 6, 4, and 13 months, the quaint location on Longboat Key was quiet, with a private beach area that made it easy stay within social distancing guidelines. Other than the elevator and stairwells, there's almost no common areas, which also promotoed social distancing. The room was exactly as advertised. Clean, comfortable, spacious, with lots of sleeping room, and an absolutely breathtaking waterfront balcony. Very good value. Will absolutely be returning again as soon as possible.

Amazing view. From the moment you walk into the living room and look out of windows you can tell this place is awesome. The view from the living room/balcony is unmatched. The condo was well kept and ready for our stay. We made it in past office hours, but the check in process was a breeze and easy. Our property owner, Roman, was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our vacation.

Amazing time!

Roman was a wonderful host. He was very responsive and gave very descriptive and easy details. The check in process was very easy and staff at Turtle Crawl was very friendly and helpful. We loved that the place had chairs available and was an ocean front property. Great time spent here and will be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at this rental! The location was perfect—right on the beach with a stunning ocean view that made every morning feel like a dream. The amenities were top-notch: we enjoyed relaxing by the pool, playing with the miniature golf area.Inside the rental, everything we needed was provided. It was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything to make our stay feel like home. The owner was incredibly helpful and thorough—always quick to provide the information we needed to have the best trip possible.We can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-equipped beach vacation!Loved watching the boats passing by each day

Quiet Beachfront renovated condo

The photos do not do justice for this view from the condo living area. A wide window/sliding door provides great views of the beach and sunsets. The area is quiet, so a car will be helpful to get around. The condo was stocked linens, including beach towels and a few rolls of toilet paper were provided. No laundry in the unit but the coin laundry was easy to use and we felt very safe with leaving our laundry running while at the pool and beach. Beach chairs and umbrella provided free of charge and the pool was heated. This is a great place to relax, enjoy a uncrowded beach, and collect sea shells.
