About the host
Hosted by Heidi
Hello!
My name is Heidi, and I live in Oklahoma City with my husband, Jeff, eight-year-old daughter, Louisa, three-year-old son, Teddy, two beloved dogs, Milton and Kramer and two feline members, Willow and Maple...! It's a zoo.
Originally from Upstate New York (the Fingerlakes region!), I grew up vacationing on Longboat Key as my parents owned a condo at the nearby Diplomat Beach Resort. It's a peaceful island full of beautiful memories for me. When the opportunity presented itself to purchase on LBK, my husband and I jumped at the chance and bought our sweet little studio at The Beach in October 2020, followed by our comfortable one-bedroom in February 2021 at Silver Sands, a ground floor studio at The Beach in 2024, and last, a Beach top floor one-bedroom, in 2025! It's been a marvelous experience owning on the island and hosting so many amazing guests!
To learn a little more about me, other than managing our condos and raising two children, I foster the most wonderful dogs AND cats (over 100 in total now!) through our local Oklahoma Humane Society, read for monthly book club, spend way too much money gardening, and love to vinyasa yoga flow - certified teacher but only substitute teaching at the moment...!
For us, vacation is important. It's a lovely gateway for reconnecting with spouses, bonding with children, celebrating special events, and reinvigorating oneself. We take vacation seriously and want it done right from booking onward...! A positive guest experience is paramount, and we approach each guest party as if it's our very first one - ready to impress!
We're so happy you are considering booking (or have already booked!) at one of our condos. They are little slices of serenity! We hope you love them too.

What makes this property unique
Longboat Key, Florida, is easily reachable by flying into Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, which is an easy 25-minute (11.6 miles) drive to the condo.
You can also fly into Tampa International Airport, which often offers cheaper flight options, and is just a 1 hr, 15-minute (61.1 miles) drive away.
For ease and convenience, we do recommend renting a car while on the island. Along Gulf of Mexico Drive (GOM), where the condo is located, there is an extensive, paved multiuse walkway (10 miles!) ideal for walking and biking for pleasure, exercise, and purpose. Although you can use this walkway to get to a Publix Super Market, 1.1 miles, restaurants are dotted along GOM with no main cluster. Likewise, with a car, restaurants and attractions are just a quick 5 - 10 minute drive for most!
If you decide not to rent a car, consider calling one of the following to schedule airport transportation or specific restaurant/activity rides: Longboat Key Transportation or Elite Sedan Services. Uber (download the apps) is available too, but remember their availability is contingent on time of year, day of week, time, etc.
Due to the petite size of The Beach parking lot, if you are driving to the condo, one parking space is allowed per unit. There is no room for additional cars (second family member car, guest car), jet-skis, trailers, etc., unfortunately. Each car requires a parking pass from the main office.
