Nice Condo in a great location

spent a long weekend with friends in this condo. We road our bikes everywhere with many shops and restaurants close by. The beach was lovely with plenty of chairs. The condo was clean and a nice size. We really enjoyed our stay.

Hated to leave this little piece of Paradise!!!

We could not have been happier with this property and the rental process. Beautiful Gulf view from the unit and balcony. Steps from a pristine beach. Longboat Key really impressed us as first time travelers here. We certainly hope to come back. Thanks Lyn for allowing us to enjoy this condo!

Long weekend getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is well maintained and clean. Master bedroom mattress is caving in and needs replacement. Carpet in both bedrooms could also use an upgrade. Partial view from the balcony is nice, if the palm trees were trimmed down would help. Parking is close to the unit.

Unit 320 review

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First off the gulf view consisted of the top of trees and the horizon, no sand no shore and could not see people in water. Next you took the elevator out of service all day Sunday which condemned my invalid wife and myself to stay in our room all day. The elevator was not broke, you gave us no warning, you did not tell us when we rented. I fully intend to sue you for 1/3 of my money back!

Great Condo with great location.

Very well designed and clean condo right on the beach. Beautiful interior decor and furniture with great kitchen with everything you would need on vacation. We loved the stay. One recommendation we would make is replace the master bedroom mattress due to its age and major deformation.

First stay at Sand Cay.... Hope to return!

Great location with a nice view. Very clean and well furnished. Loved the "nook" with the small sleeper sofa. Only one constructive comment .... master bedroom mattress probably should be replaced.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always enjoy staying at Sand Cay. We had two issues this time: we had a dangerously faulty outlet in the second bedroom where young children slept. We called Monday morning but the problem wasn't taken care of. We had to call back Tuesday morning and soon after we called the problem was fixed. We stayed in unit 320 and the elevator was not working when we left on 1/18. Someone from the office said they would send someone up to help us with our large suitcases Thursday morning but no one showed up.

Great Location

Condo was in a great location -- just steps to the beach and pool. Appreciated the beach toys/boogie boards and beach towels in the unit since we flew in with our kids. Also nice that chairs are available on the beach at no additional charge.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is excellent. The beach is awesome. The apartment was overall clean! The mattress in all the rooms were horrible, very uncomfortable! The last night we were there we saw a roach in the kitchen counter top. The apartment will benefit from some furniture updates! We will be back to sand key, but next time I’ll try a different unit.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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 loved Sand Cay but would not stay in this unit 320 again. Master bedroom mattress was terrible and needs to be replaced. Plus this unit did not provide basic needs like a sponge for the kitchen sink or coffee filters or salt and pepper....actually, don’t know if that is the unit owners decision or Sand Cay’s. Either way, it’s annoying to have to buy such items if you are only staying for a week. Before you book, ask questions about these things.

Needs a little TLC

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: 2nd time at Sand Cay and overall we still love the place. We aren't real picky as we care most about the location, the beach and a balcony with a nice view. Out room 320 was clean and ready for us. For a premium room it really needs some updating. The baths are OK but the furniture and wall decor it early 80's. The mattress is also ready for retirement. It was well stocked although a few condiments would be nice (no salt). Appliances worked well, especially the ice maker. A/C was in good shape. And had plenty of beach stuff. Could upgrade the styrofoam beach cooler.

Great beach resort

We loved our stay at Sand Cay! Pros: resort is just steps to private beach with lots of beach chairs available. Pool area also has lots of seating. Condo (#320) was well stocked in kitchen as well as beach toys, towels & umbrellas. Private balcony with views of the gulf. Cons: Condo (#320) master bed is worn out and should be replaced. No washer/dryer in unit like some units have (but there is on-site laundry). Not walkable to restaurants/shops ( must drive 3-5 miles ). We will definitely be back to this resort for a quiet beach vacation, if looking for more touristy spot this is likely not the resort for you.

Our unit was partially updated but I was disappointed with a half size dishwasher and the worst sagging mattress in the master that I have ever experienced.
