About this property

Walk to Beach/Bay, 1st Floor, Beach Castle #23

Relax in this privately owned and “coastal themed” ground floor condo that sleeps 4 with bay views from the privacy of your screened lanai, the living room and bedroom! The one-bedroom, one-bathroom condo includes a full-size kitchen with granite counters, fully equipped kitchen w/ice maker, both Keurig and drip coffee makers, cookware, dishes and utensils, a Serta Sleeptrue king mattress, an upgraded memory foam queen mattress on sleeper sofa, new lighting and furnishings. For entertainment - games and books are also provided, as well as smart TVs with ROKU and cable, complimentary WIFI – never compromising the comforts of home. Complimentary laundry facilities, beach chairs/umbrellas, linens/beach towels, cooler for the beach, parking and a fabulous pool and hot tub are all included.



Beach Castle community is located on one of the narrowest points on Longboat Key and spans from the Bay Side to the Gulf Side. All within walking distance to relax on the dock to read a book, cast a fishing line and watch the sunrise or you may even see the Manatees, or enjoy the Gulf side beach for shell collecting, relaxing and catch the sunset. We provide a bayside fishing dock, BBQ picnic areas, and access to pickleball courts at Longboat landings next door, but most importantly direct and private access to our beautiful Gulf of Mexico waters. Longboat Key’s beaches are the perfect place to collect shells, relax in the warm water or view a picture-perfect sunset.



This secluded hideaway exudes a classic charm that, as vacationers, we yearn for. The grounds are impeccable with lush landscaping, buildings the color of sunshine and accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. 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.



Located a short distance from nearby attractions, our community is within walking distance to Centre Shops which includes three restaurants and an ice cream shop.



Whatever your vacation desire – Beach Castle will be a location you will want to return to year-after-year.

Fun Time in a Fun Place
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: My wife and I spent three weeks in Unit #23 which was excellent. The owners of the unit pay close attention to detail and are so nice to deal with. We the rented two units in the fourth week, as out kids were joining us. Unit #4 is well-situated but needs major updating (kitchen, baths, furniture, utensils). Unit #5, where some of our kids and grands stayed turned out to be excellent. It was large, well appointed and updated.
