Beach/bay getaway

This was the perfect location for a short trip to Long Boat Key. It was close to Harry’s Kitchens, one of our favorite restaurants and deli. The condo was very comfortable and met our needs.

Beach Castle

We love longboat key and there are so many wonderful places to stay. The beach castle was no different. Clean, beautiful bay view, and close to everything you could possibly want on longboat key.

This is a well-maintained property with a tropical vibe.

The unit was tidy and clean equipped with all the necessary appliances and utensils needed whether for a long weekend or months-long visit. Property has both bay and beach access to beautiful white sand of the Gulf of Mexico.

Quick Break

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: The 2nd floor condo is a little older but was clean and fresh upon arrival. You do have steps to climb but it is just one floor up. Slight view of Bay Area which was pretty. Walk across the street to beach access which on Longboat Key is critical since they have such limited public access. Nice balcony- just too hot to use it.

A Quiet Getaway

Our trip was a quick little vacation and Beach Castle was a nice and quiet getaway. We loved the private beach and the fact that there were plenty of beach chairs for our use but unfortunately, there were not enough umbrellas. We noticed someone in a past review mentioned mold in the condo but no one had mentioned smelling mold since that time. When we first got to the condo you were hit with a smell of mold at the front door but as you moved to the bedroom, the smell went away. We could only smell the mold in the front entrance and the living room/kitchen area. The longer you stayed in the unit, the less you could smell it. The unit is cleaned by Merry Maid’s but RVA should probably watch them closer, we noticed tags (from a garment purchased) from a previous guest under the bed. It would have been also nice to have more beach towels, we were given 2 beach towels but had 4 people in our party. We were also given no washcloths. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would like to stay at Beach Castle again but in a different unit.

It worked out great though, Next time I will definitely get a two bedroom. There was plenty of room. The place was very clean and spacious so many things to do and so many things to seeAnd very private . Would definitely recommend this.

Great Location and View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented this property to stay in while attending a wedding on LBK. The location was perfect for us. It was located near family and friends and within walking distance of great restaurants, stores, bike rentals, etc. The owner provided us with a temporary pass to Cedar's Tennis Resort and Club which we, unfortunately, were unable to use but wished we had the chance as the facilities and restaurant looked great. The management was responsive when needed. The grounds were lovely. Our lanai had a wonderful view of the bay. The beach on the gulf side is within easy walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

Not as good as previous stays

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We called the day before to see if we could check in an hour early since we looked online and saw it was vacant. We were told it would be ok but when we got there the office was closed. We called RVA and they contacted the manager who was in the process of getting the condo ready. He was not aware of the early check in. One thing to note..they charge a fee of $50 for damage that is not refundable; even if you don’t do damage...just another way to increase the rental rate. Also, this unit #24 needs to replace the microwave; rust inside. Also, there were dead roaches on the floor when we got there which should have been cleaned up ahead of time...at least they were dead!
