This is a quaint, efficient space with a beautiful location for perfect sunsets. We enjoyed breakfast and happy hour on the patio each day. The rental agency was quick to reply to calls and texts even though no one was on location in the office. The location is great. We walked to LBK Farmer's Market and enjoyed delicious meals nearby at Shore and Mar Vista Dockside. We spent a day at Sarasota Market and kayaked through the mangroves in Lido Key. We'd definitely go back and stay at The Beach #106.
Gorgeous location, the beach was exceptional and the area was quiet and felt secluded. The condo was a bit shabby but clean and had everything we needed.
Wife and I came down from North Carolina for a long weekend and enjoyed our stay so much that we recommended it to my mother and her boyfriend who will be staying in May. Property manager and staff were super helpful and friendly.
Will review the great part first....the beach is literally steps away and the pool even closer. We came here simply for that reason and it was a small condo at only 16 units. It allowed more of a quiet atmosphere without lots of people around. The bad...these units are so outdated and old and need to be redone. The furniture is old and ugly and uncomfortable. Not to mention the tv is on the wall and you can only see it if you are laying in bed...the sofa is under and away from the tv. I am sure this is because of the smallness of the room but as I said...it is very dated and not at all pleasing to look at. One more wonderful thing to add though...the rabbits who came out to nibble on the grass every morning and we had so much enjoyment out of watching them while drinking coffee. I just think they need to do more landscaping to update this condo unit and make this more pleasurable to be there. All in all...it was what we expected.
We have been coming down to Longboat Key for years with family but since it was just the two of us we didnât need a bigger place, so my wife found The Beach on VRBO and we remember seeing The Beach as sometimes we have stayed next door. But it had a studio unit! Perfect! We loved the property! nicely maintained right on the beach and it is clean and small enough without being overcrowded! Great stay
We liked the fact that the building is located right on the beach and it takes a minute to get the ocean.
The bed is not comfortable though and squeaky. And there is no teapot.
This property is so very well maintained, SUPER friendly / helpful Staff, gorgeous white sand beaches and adorable wildlife (bunnies) Cannot wait until we return for our next stay.
Comfortable, small place just as described. Great location. Steps from the beach. Well equipped with everything we needed including plenty of extra linens, bbq and free washer/dryer very close to room. Lovely office staff. Very firm bed.
Weâve been coming to Longboat Key/Anna Maria Island for years. We love being right on the beach, only steps to the ocean. Although this place is small, it is PERFECT for two people & you donât get any closer to the beach. My only feedback for improvement is newer, softer linens for the bed. The bed is a Murphy bed, and it was much more comfortable than I anticipated. Definitely stay here!
