Adorable Villa at Cedars East, Tennis Resort, Longboat Key Beach
Think Florida before everything went beige - bright colors, Gulf breezes, bike rides, cocktails and dinner on the screened lanai, and a house with enough personality to remember.
This colorful 1,440 square-foot 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhome at Cedars East Resort & Club sits on the quieter north end of Longboat Key, with more breathing room and the playful spirit of vintage Florida — plus all the modern comforts you want on vacation.
Stroll the wooden boardwalks through the mangroves to Sarasota Bay and the fishing pier, cool off in the heated Junior Olympic-size pool, or book a game of tennis or pickleball.* In the other direction, the Gulf is an easy walk or bike ride to public beach access north or south. Beach chairs, an umbrella, towels, and beach gear are ready to go, and bikes are available to rent. Even better, several restaurants are within an easy walk — a rarity on Longboat Key.
Inside, there's a fully stocked cook's kitchen with brand-new stainless appliances, including an induction cooktop, plus Calphalon cookware, spices, cooking oils, coffee, and tea. There's also a grill, comfy leather sofa, and a La-Z-Boy recliner with heat and massage.
Kitchen Amenities Include: • Calphalon pots and pans • Sharp kitchen knives • Pizza peel • Wok and bamboo steamer • Pasta maker • Rice cooker • Crock-Pot • Air fryer • Roasting pan • Glass food-storage containers • Cappuccino maker • Spices and cooking oils • Coffee and tea • New outdoor grill
Both bedrooms have queen beds and their own cheerful coastal style. The primary also has a standing desk and fast Wi-Fi — for anyone who needs to channel their inner Don Draper before cocktails on the lanai.
You'll also have a private garage, in-unit laundry, and plenty of room to unpack, settle in, and stay awhile.
Come for the Gulf and sunshine. Stay for that colorful, slightly quirky vintage Florida feeling that turns a rental into a memory. Because some places are easy to leave. Others follow you home.
