We had a great time in Longboat Key! The condo’s beachfront location was perfect and provided a private, short walk to the beach. The condo was very clean and well stocked with all the beach gear you need. Check in/out was easy and we had no issues or complaints. We’d easily stay here again!

The only thing we would suggest is a firmer mattress in the master bedroom..
