Beach Condo with Quiet, Private Beach
Relax with your loved ones at this quiet, 2-bedroom beachfront condo at the Beach Castle Resort on Longboat Key. This second-floor corner unit is a perfect beach vacation rental for couples or families, offering a chance to recharge, reconnect, and make new memories.
Wake up to stunning Gulf of Mexico views from the primary bedroom and your private patio—the perfect spot for a morning coffee or an evening drink while you take in the amazing sunsets and listen to the waves. The home is comfortably furnished to accommodate your group:
1. Primary Bedroom: A relaxing sanctuary with a king-sized bed, a 50-inch smart TV, and direct patio access with water views. Complete with an attached en-suite bathroom.
2. Second Bedroom: Features two full-sized beds and a TV with cable and an attached en-suite bathroom
3. Living Room: Unwind with a movie on the 58-inch 4K Roku smart TV. The space also includes a queen-sized sleeper sofa for additional guests.

The secluded hideaway resort is wonderfully maintained and incredibly quiet and peaceful. The beaches on Longboat Key are just a few miles north of Siesta Key, consistently rated the top beach in the country. With the same water and sands as Siesta Key, Longboat Key is much less crowded, truly feeling like your own private slice of paradise. One of our absolute favorite things to do while here is sitting out on the beach after dark and stargazing! This quiet retreat offers a great escape from it all -- a chance to recharge your batteries, reconnect with loved ones and make new memories.
Your unit is wonderfully located on the northern part of Longboat Key, a very short walk to great restaurants, cafés and an ice cream shop. Bicycle rentals are also available to further explore everything the island has to offer. St Armands Circle is less than 9 miles to the south and is an exciting hub of waterfront locations, fine dining and shopping.
Guests will enjoy complete privacy and access to the entire condo via a smart lock. Your unique access code will be provided in your confirmation email and will activate at check-in.
As our guest, you`ll have access to the full range of amenities at the unique Beach Castle Resort, which extends from the Gulf of Mexico to Sarasota Bay:
* Private Beach Access: Enjoy private beach access just steps from your door. * Beach Gear: Complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas are provided for your use. * Pool & Hot Tub: Take a dip in the heated community pool or unwind in the hot tub. * Bay Access: Launch a kayak from the newly constructed pier on the bay or enjoy some great fishing. Two fishing poles are available for your use in the unit.
Parking on Longboat Key is extremely limited—there is no public parking available on the island. Our unit includes one assigned parking space. Please ensure you vehicle is parked in the correct assigned spot, as unauthorized vehicles are subject to towing. If you are bringing a second vehicle, please be aware that additional parking is not available through us and will be entirely your responsibility to arrange prior to arrival.

Loved this little condo. Its access to the beach is unbeatable. Longboat is a great area- quiet and not overrun with tourists! We loved the condo’s proximity to great restaurants and easy access to grocery stores for supplies. Will definitely stay here again when we are in the area!
This place was wonderful. First of all, the location is amazing, right in the beach! And the beach was never crowded, we almost always felt like we had it to ourselves. And this unit was clean, comfortable and beautiful. We have stayed at another unit at beach castle before and the layout of this condo was a little roomier which was so nice. We will definitely stay here again.
Just had a great short break in this beautiful property- well looked after and a great welcome pack to get us started.
What a fantastic location- simply stunning
Great Comms with the owner and easy to park up and get into the property to settle in
This property was perfect for our family of six. We loved quick beach access, and the condo had everything we needed to enjoy vacation together. We already want to come back.
We loved this updated condo. Not having to worry about beach chairs and umbrellas was also great. Will definitely visit again. And of course LBK is always amazing!!
Cannot be more happy with our 6 day stay. The area is close to restaurants (Harry’s for the win), is perfectly situated on the beach where you avoid the crowds, and Danielle was so wonderful at making sure we had everything set for the visit. Will be back for sure!!
Our family loved our stay here. Everything was as advertised and the host was very responsive. The unit was clean, comfortable, and what a great location! It was so nice being just a few steps from the beach. Very convenient having restaurants a short walk away too (Lazy Lobster- reserve the table by the fish tank). The condo facilities seemed to be maintained well- there were beach chairs and umbrellas out there on the beach ready to use, the pool was clean, and the fishing dock was nice. We would definitely stay here again!
Perfect property, steps from the beach. Nice space for just the two of us and when my parents came to visit for a few nights. Kitchen well-equipped to cook-in. Plenty of nearby restaurants for a night out.
Great location. Very short walk to the beach. Plenty of chairs & umbrellas provided. The screened balcony with a beautiful view of the gulf was awesome. Nicely decorated and well stocked kitchen. Check in was a breeze. Communication Daniel was great. Would highly recommend!

Clean a bit dated the whole building I felt. Nice to have the chairs and umbrellas for sure. And beach towels. Manager was great.
Our family stayed for a few nights in between a trip to Orlando. The location was peaceful but with all amenities you need on the doorstep. Short drive to Bradenton beach and a little further to siesta key both of which were great locations to explore. And lovely to come back to the peace and tranquility of the apartment and beach at Longboat key. Danielle was incredible and a great source of advice. The apartment is a great size with everything we needed for our stay. We had a wonderful time.
Great place, private beach, and close to everything.
Now that my parents and kids are getting older, we prefer a place with a little more privacy, but is still close enough to the city for us to going out at night. This place was perfect. I have never been around the Sarasota area, and was surprised how nice the people are and the amount of things to do within a short drive. The place we stayed at was very nice, clean, had a lot of little touches that other places don't added in, and if i had any questions the host would response to me very quickly. I can not recommend this place enough, from the house, to the people, and to the location.
We loved this location on Longboat Key: a beautiful and uncrowded beach, plenty of good restaurants without having to go into Sarasota (or even St. Armands), relatively light traffic between the bridges. Danielle was a wonderful and super responsive host. This condo has been completely renovated inside and is very well equipped. The pool and hot tub were rarely busy -- they are across the street from this beachside condo. Nothing but good things to say about this one.
My wife and I enjoyed two weeks at this property. Furnishings were comfortable and kitchen well stocked. We found it very clean. The second bedroom and bath offered great privacy for additional guests. Location is close to restaurants and best of all its steps to the beach! Delightful screened porch with beach view. The property is well maintained and very private. The communal laundry was adequate and easily accessible.
Danielle was very attentive and helped me navigate a couple television questions. We would not hesitate to book again.
We spent a week at this beach condo on Longboat Key for our mini-honeymoon and it was absolutely perfect! The condo was clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the beach with stunning views of the sunset every evening.
One of the highlights of our trip was all of the incredible dining options. There are dozens of excellent restaurants nearby, many offering fresh seafood and romantic waterfront views. We were never disappointed
We also loved paddle boarding and fishing right off the beach. This condo made for the perfect quiet romantic getaway. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a peaceful yet fun beach escape.
