As advertised on VRBO. Property is literally steps from the beach. Beach was beautiful and not crowded. (No lifeguards). Condo was clean when we arrived. Furniture was comfortable and kitchen well stocked if you wanted to prepare meals. Landlord was responsive via email. Would recommend!

First Longboat Stay

We had our best vacation ever. The area is beautiful with lots of great restaurants. Our only negative was that we could not get ahold of anyone to fix our door and I had to fix it myself but I would definitely stay there again.

Love Longboat Key

Loved the condo at Longboat Key. It was perfect for our visit to Florida. Angel gave us a little bit earlier check in. We did have a small issue upon arrival, but Angel was very quick to reply and work on getting the situation remedied. We had a very pleasant stay in LBK.

Amazing

What a fantastic spot. The beach was terrific… the condo had every amenity we needed…. The pool was lovely. Dolphins and manatees in the water… close to restaurants and shopping. Beautiful sunsets and storm watching. We are so sad to be leaving because we had such an amazing vacation. I can’t think of a single thing we would have done differently. Thank you!!!

Longboat Key.

We had a wonderful time at this condo on the Gulf. The beach and view of the beach from the unit was fabulous. Great lounge chairs were provided along with towels and umbrellas. The kitchen was nicely stocked The only complaint was the lack of an elevator to the 3 rd floor. Hauling luggage was tough other than that we had a wonderful time. We are 3 ladies in out late 60s

Amazing vacation

This property is just perfect. It is right on the beach, away from the crowds and within 15 minutes of everything. The host is very quick to respond and super helpful. The listing is exactly what it is. Loved watching the dolphins, shell hunting and gorgeous sunsets. Good restaurants close by too. Would definately recommend. We stayed in unit 3. We will go again.

Lovely view of the Gulf

The condo has an amazing view of the gulf and a pleasant screened porch overlooking the water. The beach is right outside. The location is quaint. Internet worked fine. The space and amenities are fine. There could be a bit more dishes, but it did not bother us. We would return to this exact location on Longboat Key--it was fantastic.

Longboat Key stay

We drove by the place before realizing that was where we were. It really didn't look anything like the listing because they only showed what it looked like from the beach side. The parking lot was really small for all the big suv's, but there isn't much one can do about that. In all though we had a great trip! The place was clean and the owners were responsive when I had a question.
