Wonderful condo. As James states, it’s not your typical condo for rent. It was very beautifully appointed and the condition of the condo was great. The view is outstanding and you can’t get much closer to the beach. There are many great restaurants to choose from. All in all we enjoyed our stay very much.

Thank you so Much Thomas for the gracious comments
We really wanted to get away from crowded beaches and have a view of the beach from our room. This gave us both and the place was clean as a whistle. My wife always does the bed inspection and we both look at the rentals as a whole and this passes with flying colors. Jim was communicative and helpful.After a day on the uncrowded beach we enjoyed the pool and then went to watch the sunset. If you do not want a crowded tourist scene, this is a perfect place for a couples getaway.

Thank you so much. I love the comment about checking the bed and this is a private island so it shows it's the 6th most expensive city in Florida.
Jim is a fantastic host. He's a great communicator, from the time of booking to questions we had during our stay. He provided us with an informational packet that was very helpful. We loved the view, the quiet beach and the location. And the new king bed was so comfy! We can't wait to go back to again.

We had a great time in Longboat Key. Our host Jim was great… his communication with us was awesome… Everything from giving us some suggestions on where to have dinner to taking care of anything that was needed in our unit. Very comfortable clean place to stay. We would highly recommend this place

You are pretty fabulous and I have a story about Tanzania. You would like to hear.
The place was exactly as described and the perfect location for a 4-day getaway. Gorgeous view of the beach and ocean and short walk to get your feet in the sand.The condo was very comfortable and the location was great to get to stores and restaurants with a short drive.

Thank you for all your kind words it was an absolute privilege to work with you. God's blessings always.
Great view and super convenient access to the beach! The condo was clean and cozy, and the balcony was a nice space to enjoy morning coffee and evening sunsets. The only real draw back was the occasional drawn out and loud conversations from the neighbors above. Stand still traffic going north from the condo beginning at the bridge at Longboat Key Pass towards Bradenton was annoying. We made it up that way one evening and on to Anna Marie but then turned around on two other occasions. St. Armands Key circle area to the south was nice, but super crowded. There’s a Publix grocery store close by to pick up the essentials and plenty of local restaurants close by to enjoy a nice dinner, our favorite being Mar Vista Dockside. The host was nice and communicated a couple times that week by text just to check in to see if we needed anything.

Thank you for your nice comments and of course I can't control activities of others and you came down during the two busiest weeks of the year so traffic will be an issue and if you go to Anne Island, it's open to the public so it's far more congested than Longboat Key, which is a private island God's . Blessings.
Very nice property. Exactly as described. Owner was very concerned with our stay. I highly recommend this property.

Thank you for noticing the accommodations and your gracious words Bernard was an extremely low low maintenance person. Usually clients want a lot of coaching and they were so low key
We spent a week here in paradise, and genuinely never wanted to leave! The condo was so clean and well appointed. We are very particular about cleanliness and from the moment we entered the door we knew that we were in good hands. The linens were crisp, the floors were spotless, the bathroom sparkled, and the kitchen shined! The view only added to our first impression of the condo! The condo is truly ocean front, and the sunsets from the balcony will take your breath away. We spent every meal we possibly could on the balcony here in paradise. It is picture perfect, peaceful, and everything we could have hoped for. The location is fantastic for those who want to simply relax. It is close enough to have a quick drive for daily excursions, but outside of the hustle and bustle of city flow. There is a fantastic pool for when you just want to float around, and the putting green is perfect for a little friendly competition! Publix near by is ideal for quick groceries, and there are more than enough restaurants on Longboat with even more just a little further into Sarasota.Jim is a breath of fresh air, and only a message away. He is quick to respond, and saved us with recommendations on where to eat when we could not decide! From the moment we booked he was so helpful and kind! He made sure we had everything we needed!From the seamless checkin to the painless checkout this was truly paradise. If you are looking for a clean, peaceful, ocean front place to stay, this is it!
Beautiful, well stocked property. Comfortable beds. Plenty of beach gear is available. Great location - literally steps from the beach. Great communication from owner. We loved our stay!
We had the perfect mini getaway. Couldn’t ask for a more gracious and welcoming host. The view from our unit was superb! We saw so many shooting stars from our balcony… we will definitely return to this quiet, serene destination.

I need to know where you got the cake and if you followed my recommendations and dinner location thank you so much
Had a great relaxing time with family. The property is right on a beautiful beach which is crowd free and clean. Plenty of chairs and umbrellas available for use. Please be aware that the location is at least 20 mins away from the restaurants and shops. But that is also the reason you can have a great time away with your loved ones without disturbances.
