Best beach vacation

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: Sand Cay provides the best beach vacation for a family. The units having 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen and family room allow my family to live at the ocean comfortably. The beach and water are beautiful year after year. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I am a third generation guest at sand cay and I know my family will continue to come here year after year for generations to come. We are so grateful for our home away from home.

Great Location and Well-Equipped Condo, But Needs a Deep Clean

The location of this condo was absolutely amazing—just a short walk to the ocean, which made our stay incredibly convenient and enjoyable. The unit itself was well equipped with everything we needed, especially in the kitchen. All the tools and appliances were available, making it easy to cook and feel at home.However, the cleanliness of the unit could use significant improvement. It seemed like the space had only been superficially cleaned prior to our arrival. Some furniture surfaces were noticeably dusty and appeared not to have been touched in quite a while. Additionally, while the main bathroom areas (toilet, sink, shower) were clean, other surfaces in the bathroom had accumulated dust and clearly hadn’t been wiped down recently.A couple of smaller issues also stood out—two fans in the unit were not working, and one of the extra pillows I found in the closet was very old and worn out, which was disappointing.Overall, while the location and amenities were great, the cleaning and minor maintenance issues detracted from an otherwise pleasant stay. A thorough deep clean and some attention to upkeep would make a big difference.Staff in the office was very pleasant and kind.

We really enjoyed the property at Sand Cay, the beach is beautiful and access so close! The office ladies were very welcoming and helpful. The kitchen and bathrooms are nicely updated (bathrooms a little small), the bedrooms and family room seem a little worn/outdated. There was a decent sized lizard (bigger than a salamander) in the condo our first night, wondering if the maids left the door open when cleaning. The beach umbrella was a welcome bonus! We enjoyed our time here very much, a relaxing stay!

Fantastic beach vacation

Sand Cay is the perfect spot for your longboat key vacation, and unit 311 was phenomenal. Clean and comfortable, very well appointed, and plenty of beach gear available to use! We visit Sand Cay Several times a year and this is our new go to spot. The management company on site is absolutely phenomenal.

Excellent as always

This was our third stay at the property, with us having stayed in different units each time. You can really tell that the property has made significant investments in the past few years, all worthwhile. We will keep coming back, I don’t have anything critical to say about this particular unit, but as we have stayed in other units on the property with a washer and dryer in the unit, we missed that a little with this one, but be free common use machines were still excellent. Other than that, the only other thing we missed in this particular unit was a fridge that had filtered water and an ice machine. Again, not a major dissatisfier, but with two young kids, it would be a bonus.

Our new favorite

Great location, private beach, nice sized pool, tennis court, and close enough to everything we needed or wanted to do, but far enough away to have the peace and quiet we needed and wanted as well. Great family vacation. Everything was clean and updated. They don't make them like this anymore. Sunsets were incredible every night. And bring charcoal if you like to grill, they have 3 communal grills that look out on the beach and gulf.

Great stay

This is our first stay at sand cay. We normally stay at another condo but they were booked. This property was comparable in price and location. The room was clean and comfortable for our family. The mattress in the master was a little thin and uncomfortable is my only complaint about the room. The pool on the property could have stood a better cleaning. Water was a little cloudy. This location was great and we would stay here again.
