The cabana was a fantastic place to escape. It had easy access to both the beach and the pool. My kids loved every moment there.

Reviewer Comments:
Perfect for couples (or singles) that don't plan to spend their time cooking. It's a fine place to sleep,shower and change clothes between watching sunrises from the beach, fishing from the beach, napping/sunning at the beach, getting in the pool, experiencing the food and shopping on the Key, and going back to the beach to watch the sunset....
Room was clean and nice but lack of lighting. No light in kitchen Bed was uncomfortable. Lack of light in bedroom.

We really enjoyed our time at this spot. Small yet big enough for the 2 of us. Being so close to the beach was great, if you needed anything from your place it wasn’t a bother to go back.

We liked the property and the location. We were not expecting to have a mini fridge. The mini fridge limited what we could keep in the room. The beach was quiet. Still lots of devastation from the hurricane. We visited shops and some had been open just a couple of months. We did enjoy our trip. If you visit this area try to support these shops and businesses.

Quiet escape!
Cozy quiet spot on the beach! Just what we were looking for.
We had a great stay in Longboat key. The property was exactly as pictured and the pool was nice and warm! Extremely
Private beach just steps away. We used the grills and enjoyed the sunsets. We would definitely come back to this property again!
I loved being at the Cabana Beach club....it was just me and it was absolutely perfect. A very short walk to the beach and only a .5 mile walk to Harry's corner store for necessities. The unit was very nice and very clean. The ceiling fans could use a dusting but truly, it was a lovely place to stay.

Thank you for leaving us a review, Jamie. We are so excited that you had a wonderful and relaxing beach vacation with RVA. We would love to have you back in the near future!
This place was exactly how it was described. I don’t know how 4 people would stay there. It is small, but was perfect for my husband and I. We enjoy eating out so a big kitchen wasn’t necessary for us. Great location close to the beach. Very clean and location on Longboat was great! It was a quiet spot for us to relax. Definitely recommend!!

Thanks for staying with us! Hope to see you again soon!
We loved this unit & all it had to offer. Only downside was lack of a king size bed being that we are taller people. Otherwise, the location & amenities were perfect! Everything was included even beachfront loungers, beach umbrellas, & beach towels. I would definitely stay here again & rent a larger unit with my family.

Good location almost on the beach
This one bedroom efficiency is in a good location the property is on the beach but the unit is near the pool and parking area. It is an easy walk to the beach we where back and forth many times. It has a nice screened in porch with table and chairs. The unit has bed covering, and window treatments that need to be replaced as they are a bit worn out. There is a small refrigerator and a microwave with community grills on the property. Over all a clean comfortable unit that met our needs. The easy access to the beach is certainly the key for this unit.

Could use a new pull-out sofa and chair. Mattress in master was uncomfortable. A King bed would be much better. Windows need cleaning. Good location. Just need to be updated and TLC.
