My wife & I had a great time minus the 3 days of rain due to the hurricane that was developing in the Gulf. But it didn’t keep us from having a great time together as we were celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary.

We had a great stay! Loved the proximity to the beach (across the street) without having to pay the beachfront prices. Unit was perfect for our family of 4. We can’t wait to go back to Longboat and hopefully stay here again!

Ten Star just WOW! This was our third and lost stop in Florida this trip. The Condo is as cute as a button, clean, & filled with little extras (soap, body wash, detergent, COFFEE and salt & pepper! Ha) which was a sooo welcomed perk!!The beach is a skip away with chairs & umbrellas provided! Say whaat?! No lugging everything necessary. Water was beautiful, clouds, and the sunset for the win.Staff were very attentive and easy to work with. Will definitely be back!!

Summer Vacation

Loved the location of this VRBO!! It has easy access to local tourists spots but is a much more laid back atmosphere than other islands around it. Also it's within walking distance of a few great restaurants and an ice cream parlor. The beach is great and provided umbrellas/chairs is a great plus for us! Loved our stay!!

Room was clean. Nice furniture especially the bedroom. No filter for the coffee machine Should add to the listing bring Keurig or supply filters .I'm not interested in a buying service for coffee. Host was good but I prefer an individual owner vs a corporation.

A little tired

Overall, many things inside have been updated, but some things need to be freshened up and cleaned.Location was further out than we expected with family in Sarasota.All that said, it was sufficient and we enjoyed walks on the beach, and enjoyed the sidewalks.Parking is 1 space per unit, and people were constantly in our spot,

Very comfortable and cozy co do

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit 14 is a wonderful little condo right next to the pool. The Unit was very clean and had everything we needed for a day in or out. The master bed was the most comfortable we have ever slept on in a rental and my 10 y o slept on the pull out bed and she slept well too.we enjoyed the private patio as well. The quick walk across the street to the private beach was wonderful and nice to avoid the crowds. Having the chairs at the beach was real convince and we just grabbed an umbrella from the pool to take over. We will definitely be back to stay at beach castle and I'm sure will visit Unit 14 again as well.

Perfect Location on LBK

This little condo was so clean and cozy we had the most relaxing time away. We typically stay on the beach side, but were looking for something last minute. I loved the feel of the 2nd floor view from the balcony. The pool and hot tub were almost always empty and a short walk across the street to the beautiful gulf😍 Comfortable seating in living room and bed. We will be back!
