Bikini Bottom Cottage in the historic village of Longboat Key
The Bikini bottom Cottage is on an alley way that lead directly to the kayak and boat launch. Walk down to view the sunrise coffee in hand with the Sailboat moorings and end your day at The Mar Vista restaurant. Make sure you walk out on the dock and look in the water around the sunken lights. Across from The Village is the white sandy beach. Meander down the boardwalk and the beach opens up for miles of tranquil shoreline. The tip of the island feels more like you've discovered your own private island. With old trees laying in the water and no structures in site you can float out on the turquoise sandbar. Good spot to catch fish. Watch manatees and dolphins swim and dream of what this place was like before condos. The cottages have an old time charm. Built in the 30's as apart of The Whitney Estate. After a hurricane washed away the main home the cottages where relocated for safer ground. Sturdy little 440 sq. ft. Homes. Handmade stone veneer clad the outside of the structure. Inside you will find a comfortable living space. One Queen size bed in the bedroom and full size fold out coach in main living room. Internet cable of course. Nice porch and tropical landscaping. Once you're here you don't need to go very far to fill the day with a genuine Florida adventure. All you really need to do is allow the nature to come to you. If you're into kayaking or paddle boarding this is a perfect launch pad. With in seconds on the water you will be surrounded by an array of activity. This is the destination boats come. In the Sarasota flats there are a string of islands called the sister keys. Sandbars sea grass and secret Channels hold tons of life. Please contact for customized dates.

Perfect!
The cottage was perfect - for a weekend or for a week+ in Long Boat. The property was clean, updated and very cute. Great privacy fenced in courtyard with lounge chairs/seating, grill and outdoor table for dining. We brought our paddle boards and we were able to carry our boards just down the alley to the launch beach in the bay for paddling. And the fenced in area allowed us to keep our gear safe. Mar Vista restaurant was around the corner and the gulf beach was a short walk. The cottage had everything needed. We will definitely stay at this property again!!

Charming Cottage
This is a charming vacation cottage with all the conveniences of home! It is located just far enough away from the crowds but with easy access to dining, shopping and beaches. One of the best beaches in the area is a short .3 mile walk away, and the marina is even closer. We loved our time here and would love to visit again in the future.

Very clean and comfortable! Updated in cute modern beach style. Perfectly situated in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Easy four block walk to a very nice and uncrowded public beach. We enjoyed our week-long stay and hope to come back!
