Beach Castle Resort #27 by RVA

Compliments of RVA, Beach Castle Resort expands from the bayside of Longboat Key to the Gulf – providing a place to launch your kayak and cast a line, a chance to spot exotic birds that stop here for our mild temperatures and to view a picture-perfect sunset over the Gulf of Mexico. The grounds here are impeccable – from the well-manicured vegetation to the vast palm trees that dot this serene Longboat Key location. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests. However, all units provide a full kitchen, living room and private lanais – never compromising the comforts of home. This secluded hideaway exudes a classic charm that, as vacationers, we yearn for. A place to get away from it all, relish in the Florida sunshine and reconnect with family and friends; all this while enjoying white-sand beaches, privacy and most importantly, vacation memories that last a lifetime.

Longboat Condo
This is a beautiful and convenient location. The bay is steps from the condo, the beach is across the street, the pool is very nice and there are restaurants just a few steps down the road. Our family had a wonderful time and plan to visit again.

Beautiful views! Plenty of Space!
Beautiful, clean home with plenty of living and relaxing space. Multiple areas to dine, relax, and spread out. Views were amazing. Private and quiet. Short walk to gorgeous beach. Easy drive to grocery store as well as St Armand’s Circle with its many restaurants and shops. Recommend walking to Harry’s for lunch (inside) or their deli for take out sandwiches to take to beach! Harry’s was an excellent find..a hidden gem. Would definitely stay here again!

Fine
The property needs some attention both inside and out. While the maids do a superficial cleaning a deep clean is needed. Under tables, beds and sofas are kids cereal, baby food, small toys, hair bands and filth. 2 dvd machines are present but we could not get either to work (after reading about the brands and the tvs). So much for the movies we brought. Outside the property has several areas that need painted or rotted wood replaced. The back screen door needs a new hinge as of now just make sure you pull it shut. The hedges along the water are in need of trimming (several feet too tall and of varying height along property) which affects the water views for this unit. Pest extermination services are needed as ants were a daily problem. We bought 6 ant traps which helped some. Parking is very tight and may impede driving out. The hedges along the lateral aspect of the property are in need of trimming as well. To drive out of the property with guests at other units required side-swipping the hedges (several times a day). Hope the small scatches buff out.

A Beautiful Spot on Long Boat Key
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 were so lucky that hurricane Ian didn't totally ruin our vacation plans. Though there was some damage to the property the biggest disruption was the no-see-um problem that was probably exacerbated by the storm. The dock was also being replaced which quashed our plans to fish right off our back porch but the property managers were more that accommodating with each request to make our stay better. The windows were really dirty and the back porch needed to be swept out (both due to the storm) but the property managers took care of things and the rest of the unit was amazing. The upstairs loft master suite was gorgeous and there was so much space we never felt like we were on top of each other. The pool area was perfect. Very clean, the pool water temperature was just right, and the hot tub was one of the best I've every been in. The beach, dining, ice cream, souvenirs were all a short walk away and we had a wonderful time exploring LBK, Ana Maria Island, Sarasota and Siesta Key. A truly beautiful spot and we got to enjoy both the sunrise (from the bay side) and the sunsets (from the beach). Would definitely stay here again.

The home was nice and clean, and has great views. Our families enjoyed it for being in the ocean and the amenities. It would be nice if there were more things by cooking and spices.

Peaceful location
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: The view from the floor to ceiling windows was breathtaking. Sunrises ans and sunsets were mesmerizing.The kitchen was fully stocked with all the necessary culinary kitchenware to prepare numerous gourmet meals. It was spacious and allowed privacy when needed. The modern upgrades made all the difference when choosing this gorgeous villa.However, there does seem to be a big ant problem and the freezer needs to be cleaned before each guest.

Lovely beach home for a small family reunion!
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: This lovely home on the bay had a beautiful bay view, 3 comfortable bedrooms with its own bathrooms, a large kitchen and plenty of seating!! Beach was a quick walk across the road with umbrellas, beach chairs, kayaks and bikes to enjoy. Lazy Lobster is right next door so you can walk there! Clean and great open space so you do not feel on top of each other. Only minus is the blinds in one room were broken.
