We really enjoyed this property! It was clean and quiet. The beach views were spectacular. We will be back for sure. One word of caution is there is a flight of steps to get up to the property. There is not an elevator.

4.5 rating - great condo for our needs. Beautiful Gulf view - sunsets every night! Condo was stocked well. Our 1/2 star is bc condo was clean but dusty. Bedding and pillows need to be replaced. Cleaning products would be helpful such as Windex, bathroom cleaner, and counter top plus a broom/pan. We stayed a week and mid-week would like to spruce up and keep things clean and tidy. Overall, our stay was wonderful and location in Longboat was great. Restaurants were in walking distance plus park was beautiful with trails. Beach and view was amazing. Pool was small but suitable and heated. Beach chairs and towels were provided. Neighbors were respectful and friendly. We also grilled dinner! We had a lovely stay!!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful 4.5-star review! We’re thrilled to hear that the condo was a great fit for your needs and that you enjoyed the beautiful Gulf views and nightly sunsets — they truly are something special. We appreciate your feedback regarding the dust, bedding, and pillows. Your comments are very helpful, and we’re already working with our cleaning team to address these items, including refreshing bedding and adding basic cleaning supplies so guests staying longer can easily tidy up during their stay. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the Longboat Key location, nearby restaurants, the park and trails, as well as the beach, pool, and grilling area. We’re also glad the beach chairs, towels, and friendly community added to your experience. Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing such helpful feedback. We’d love the opportunity to host you again in the future!

Perfect stay, gorgeous location!

We were on Longboat for my nephews wedding and I am so glad I chose this condo! It was clean, well kept, with an updated kitchen and the location cannot be beat. My son and I even extended our stay for two extra days and RVA was incredible to work with. We will definitely be returning to #2 at The Cabana Beach Club!
