About this property

Beach Castle Resort #26 by RVA

Compliments of RVA, Beach Castle Resort expands from the bayside of Longboat Key to the Gulf – providing a place to launch your kayak and cast a line, a chance to spot exotic birds that stop here for our mild temperatures and to view a picture-perfect sunset over the Gulf of Mexico -- all courtesy of Mother Nature.



The grounds here are impeccable – from the well-manicured vegetation to the vast palm trees that dot this serene Longboat Key location. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests. However, all units provide a full kitchen, living room and private lanais – never compromising the comforts of home.



This secluded hideaway exudes a classic charm that, as vacationers, we yearn for. 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.

The guest will also have access to the community fitness center.

A great get away!
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: An easy process from start to finish! Booking online was a breeze and I loved that you could book shorter stays. Our flight was delayed so we didn't make it in time to check-in in-person, which was no problem bc everything was there waiting for us when we did get there. Our condo was clean and full of extra blankets (which was great bc the weather was chilly. It was a great location and easy to stay on the Key or go up to Cortez/Bradenton or down to Sarasota. Unfortunately, it was a bit chilly to hang out at the beach, but the morning trip tp the beach showed a great beach area! We had a great experience and will likely be back in the future!

Good Location
Good Location, close to beach, restaurants, walking distance or biking. Nice pool and hot tub. Condo was clean but could use a little TLC Air conditioner went out, so it was very hot, screen broken in bedroom. understand this is not their fault, but was a pain to unpack, and pack again. Property managers were very nice!

Cozy Longboat Key Condo
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 stay at Beach Castle Resort #26 was cozy and perfect for me. I enjoyed the sunrise and bay view from the screened in deck each morning, and short walk across the street to the beach and sunsets each day/evening. The condo was clean and well maintained. I enjoyed the guest membership at Cedars resort, and rode a bike each day. The only negative thing was that the screen was missing from the bedroom window, so I wasn't able to keep the window open. This should be replaced. Besides that, my stay was perfect!

Nice Stay - Need to go back!
Beautiful place, nice grounds - unfortunately it was too cold during our visit to really enjoy the pool, dock, or beach - so we need to come back. During our stay the water heater went out - management was quick to respond and get the issue resolved.
