Perfect Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at the Beach Castle. The condo was very clean. The pool and fishing dock were a great addition to being able to walk to the beach, restaurants and most importantly, ice cream. We will be back!

Great getaway

We were in town for a National soccer tournament and want a quiet place to relax between games and enjoy the beach. Long Boat Key and Beach Castle were perfect. Much better than staying in a hotel, great location, clean and very enjoyable.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were able to gather at Beach Castle Resort with my entire family, it was ideal for us to each have our own condo - our family of 4 enjoyed #12 very much. The new kitchen is beautiful and the condo was well stocked. We loved this quieter stretch of the island and enjoyed ice cream next door from Tyler's more than once :)

A bit overpriced for what you get

The property was adequate. Seemed a bit overpriced for the size and condition of the unit, compared to other units in the area. Couch needed replacement as the cushions seemed like they had not fill in them. We were able to rent for next year at the same price at a nearby unit which is larger and on the beach.

Great few days at LBK

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: I’m always pleasantly surprised when I first walk in a Beach Castle 2 bedroom with how spacious the condo is. We haven’t stayed there in awhile, but hope to be back soon. Our unit was #12, upstairs right by the pool. The only negative was the trash can in the kitchen cabinet had not been emptied from the prior guests. Also, a suggestion is to add a grill by the pool as it’s a bit of a walk to grill on the bay or the grill beach-side.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our Vacation Rental at the Beach Castle Resort was incredibly memorable in many ways. The #12 apartment unit was very spacious and clean. It had all the basic amenities that we needed for our trip. The access to the resort exclusive private beach was a short 2 min walk. The resort also provided complimentary beach umbrellas and chairs. We will surely reconsider coming back for yet another trip to longboat Key.

Small getaway

Wonderful location and condo on Longboat Key. Our condo was next to the pool and a short walk to bayside pier and short walk to beach. The condo has beach towels, cooler, beach toys. Beach Castle resort also provided umbrellas and chairs beach side. The condo also provided membership to Cedar Tennis Club where we were able to use bicycles for hours at no charge or large Olympic size pool if you wanted. If she has stayed longer I would have use more of the amenities provided. This area of FL was recommended by a friend who lives in area and knew we wanted a quiet area! Private beaches and low key vibes. If you love more action head a few mile up shore. Overall, I would return to this location in this area of Longboat Ley!

Could have added a spare roll of toilet paper. Biggest problem was that the hot tub was colder than the pool. We reported it the first day and it was never fixed. Office person just kept promising it would be tomorrow every day.

Sean at the front office provided an effortless check-in. There were no issues so we did not have to contact anyone. The private beach was heaven, the fishing dock was great to have, we played pickleball every day, and lastly we swam in the clean and quiet pool every afternoon. You are close to the action and restaurants. We highly recommend this property! What activities, attractions and restaurants did you enjoy?

Clean Clean Clean for the Win!

Kudos to your housekeeping service. This unit was super clean and I am OCD. I appreciate cleanliness above all else. The only negative thing about our stay is I thought we booked the gulf side. I was disappointed to find out we were not on the beach side. Also, the pool water was as hot as the hot tub water. It desperately needed cooled down. I would stay here again. It was a nice clean property that had everything we needed and more! There were plenty of chairs and umbrellas for our group. It was so nice to have water toys and ice cooler there for us to use. It was all in great shape and the kids loved having it. We’ll be back!

Wonderful Family Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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 had a lovely time renting Condo #12. It was a great fit for our family of 6 and the amenities were family friendly. It was wonderful to find that the owners had stocked the condo with family friendliness in mind. The puzzles, games, unbreakable dishes, pool toys, etc. made the experience so much less stressful. I feel like they thought of everything from tape/pens in a spare drawer to plastic storage containers for conveniently storing leftovers. The new carpet and other upgrades that have been made created a beautiful and relaxing environment.
