Mark,
We are happy you enjoyed your stay! And thank you for securing the outdoor furniture in preparation for the storm. We hope you consider staying with us again in the future.
We had stayed on Longboat Key previously, but this was the first time in this location. Everything was good with the Condo and its location is central on the key, which was very convenient. Only a short walk to the beach, can bike directly from the condo up and down the key, and the facilities (pool, etc...) are good. We really enjoyed having beach chairs and umbrellas available at the beach.

We are happy you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for your understanding and patience with the roof replacement.
This immaculate condo is located in one of the coolest neighborhoods on the key. So beautifully landscaped with access to both the bay and a private beach. Spend you days relaxing on a beach (in FL no doubt) with nobody for miles. Spend your evenings a short drive from St Armonds Circle and downtown with some of the best food on the west coast. I can't wait to go back. I hate to tell anyone about it cause I want to go back often without it getting filled up. Seriously, you will love this place.

About the host
Hosted by Ellen Shy
Our family has had a love of Florida gulf coast beaches for years, vacationing up and down the coast. So much so, that we moved to Florida full-time from the Midwest several years ago.
Why they chose this property
We purchased this condo as a home-away-from home to enjoy and share beach time and island life with our family and friends. We chose Longboat Key for its beauty and tranquility, yet close proximity to the many attractions of Sarasota and surrounding islands. We chose Bayport Beach and Tennis Club for the architecture, lush tropical landscape, beach to bay access, various amenities, and mid-Longboat location. We hope you choose to come for a visit and enjoy our condo and Longboat Key too!
What makes this property unique
Bayport Beach & Tennis Club is a lush tropical low-rise beach to bay community; rarely found on Longboat Key. Our end unit condo is in a quiet area of the complex situated mid-property, providing easy access to the beach, pool and other amenities.
