Our Happy Place

I have been going to LBK and the Beach Castle for 40 years. My daughters always called it our “happy place.” Now my son-in-laws and grand babies have joined us. Staying at the Beach Castle is easy and the perfect location with bay and beach access. Our unit was updated and had all the kitchen accessories we needed. Providing beach towels and access to free laundry services is always a plus! See you next year!!

Location wonderful, property just ok.

The guest service attendant was amazing. The property however was lacking. Walking in it immediately smelled of mildew. The tray in the toaster over had not been cleaned, the fridge was missing all shelves and there were no coffee filters to make the complimentary coffee. It was decent for one night but I couldn't picture a longer stay.

Perfect Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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 occupied 3 separate units in the same building for our trip to Long Boat Key and it was fabulous! All units were clean, comfortable and were everything we needed for our stay. Only thing I would say is to make sure there is dishwasher soap so we could have run it before we left. Along with more than a half roll of toilet paper bc paying $17 for a pack of tp is ridiculous.

Great getaway

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 just stayed one night but it was perfect for our family of 6. Super quick short walk across the street to the beach and the convenience of having chairs and umbrellas already on the beach was great . We also took a short drive over to the tennis club and borrowed bikes for a morning bike ride . We already booked to stay longer for another weekend . Only complaint is the condo needs to provide extra linens for sofa bed and a choice of different types of bed pillows .
