The Beach On Longboat Key

Been coming here for 15 years for a few days Memorial Day week. Hopefully coming another 30!

This is a very nice place to stay on Longboat Key. We reserved late and didn’t expect much, so this place was a nice surprise. We reserved a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment and we were assigned 227 (FYI, this room has the best views on the property). The room can sleep 6 if needed with a murphy bed and sleeper sofa included, so the three of us fit just fine. The kitchen includes a full-​size refrigerator, oven, stove, microwave, and dishwasher, plus most needed dishes and utensils. This unit is on an open end of the property and includes nice views of the beach and the park next door. The only knock against this property is — like most beach-​side properties on this island — Gulf Drive is close by and it is usually pretty quiet, except the motor cycles passing by could wake the dead.
Addendum: we left an item behind that was mistakenly sent to the offsite laundry. The management happily recovered the item and shipped it to us. Great service!

A beachfront beauty! This place is clean and well kept and the rooms and kitchen have all modern updates. We have stayed here three times over the years and have been happy EVERY time. Well maintained and the staff always goes out of their way to help. The pool is well maintained and clean and the beach access is easy and, well, the beach is the best (hey, this is Longboat Key!). They even have a foot/​body spray off area and several chaise lounges on the beach for guest use. The only ding I would give is for the parking, as some rooms have more cars there and this can potentially take away from the people that have rooms paid for and assigned, thus, I would suggest designated parking. Other than that, NO COMPLAINTS!
