About this property

Undamaged - Can't Get Closer to the Beach Without Getting Your Feet Wet!

We were extremely lucky. Storm surge from Helene stopped 10 feet from our Lanai. We were on "safe" side of Milton that landed near Siesta Key.

Beautiful Gulf views from this Longboat Key Condo, only 60 steps to the beach with unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico. Two bedroom, 2 bath condo with access to the Gulf of Mexico, Tennis Court, and pool. It has everything for a wonderful vacation. 65 inch flat screen HDTV. Large enclosed patio to watch the spectacular sunsets from.

As long and picturesque as its name suggests, Longboat Key's manicured lawns, sugar white beaches, dazzling sunsets and year-round warm, crystal turquoise waters are visions of understated pleasure.

Enjoy breathtaking views of Sarasota Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Island living at its finest. World famous powdery white sand beaches are just 50 feet from your patio door.

The area is appreciated by wildlife as well, so these waters are home to manatee, dolphins, and fish, while pelicans, osprey, and a variety of shorebirds find sanctuary here. Tennis and golf enthusiasts will find first-class facilities here, and there are several parks on the Keys to visit for a relaxing afternoon.

Whether you like to spend your time shelling, biking, shopping, fishing, golfing, or dining, opportunities for these activities are boundless on Longboat Key.

Disney World and all its attractions are a mere 115 miles away, making a day trip to the Magic Kingdom possible.

LBK beautiful but crowded!

We loved the property, though it is dated. The beach on LBK is beautiful and the only knock on the area is how awful the traffic is. We decided to grab lunch at a place 6 miles away and it was a 45 min drive, which wasn’t unusual. You have to factor traffic in everything! Also and almost ironically, it’s near impossible to get dinner reservations. Other than that, loved it all!

Another great vacation at Longboat Key's Covert Properties

This is our 6th visit to LBK and first to this particular unit of the three Covert properties. We leased a first floor unit of Covert II that enabled us to walk right out to the beach (100 feet) that provided easy access. The pool in Covert II is very nice and offers a respite from the sand (which was blowing some due to 12-15 MPH winds on several days). Overall the unit was in good repair and comfortable. The owner responded quickly to some emails so we were please with his responsiveness. LBK is a great vacation spot with access to other beaches, Sarasota and a host of great restaurants. Our new restaurant favorite is the Bayou Tavern (Italian and pizza); excellent authentic Italian food. Established favorites continue to be Harry's Continental Kitchen (superb), The Lazy Lobster, Drydock, and Marvista. The famous Columbia Reataurant is good but beware of the loud environment. Do rent bikes because LBK is very bike friendly.

Everything as promised...

And nothing more. First floor walk out to the beautiful beach. The condo itself needs serious updating. The place is so full of mirrors it feels like a funhouse. If you're older and a bit overweight, like myself, you will be constantly reminded of it. The furniture is old, smelly and uncomfortable. The bed was comfortable. The shower drain is slow, so you end up standing in a puddle of dirty water. Laundry is on the 2nd floor. Word had it that this is the only condo in the building that doesn't have its own. Considering the rather exclusive nature of the surrounding neighborhood, one would expect better upkeep.

Beautiful and relaxing

The location of this property was wonderful. You can look out at the gulf from the living room and master bedroom. The owner was easy to contact. The condo could use a little updating and maintenance. We used the toaster the first morning and realized we could only safely use one slot because the heating element is sticking out. I know these things will wear out from so much use periodically. There is a little bit of a musty smell in both bedroom closets. But it wasn't enough to bother my allergies. The kitchen was equipped with everything been needed. It could use a flipper/spatula for the grill. The grounds are gorgeous. It was a great place to relax for a week and get quality family time and it is literally steps from the gulf/beach. I would definitely stay there again.

Loved our stay on Longboat Key!

We couldn't have asked for a better week away with our kids. The condo is right on the beach and we watched beautiful sunsets from our lanai every night. The pool was a perfect temperature, and we enjoyed the easy access to both the pool and the beach. The only thing that would have made it better is having faster wifi in the condo, but other than that small detail it was a perfect stay. Thanks for making this a wonderful week for us with our family at Longboat Key!

Excellent Experience and Location

Although this condo has all the amenities you'd want, admittedly there are newer condos, bigger condos and more deluxe condos on LBK, but none with a better location or beach side experience. It's a wonderful place. We've repeated for five years now and plan on a sixth. Highly recommended.

Wonderful condo on the Gulf of Mexico. Comfy new living room furniture made it very nice for us to watch the big screen TV when we were tired from walking the beach. I'll stay here again.

Another Sun Soaked Holiday

We live in cold dreary Copenhagen and look forward to our 3 weeks of sun and white beaches at this condo each year. This was the fourth stay at this condo and we've already already booked our 2018 vacation. We did have a couple of cool days, its December, after all. So its nice to be able to close of the Lanai with the outer sliding doors to be able to lounge in comfort while still enjoying the view of the beach and ocean. Owner needs to update their VRBO website with new photos showing the new furniture, 4K television, and glass top range.

Longboat Key is a beautiful place. Great beaches, shopping, and great places to eat !

The condo area is beautiful, very well kept. Great location. However this condo isn't completely renovated as described here. Yes there has been work done but more to do. Living room furniture is VERY dirty. If you're okay with the refrigerator having open jars of food from previous guest and other open food in the cabinets this my be your place. We felt like we walked into someone else's personal space.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
My parents bought this condo before it was built in 1975. I have spent every vacation since on this wonderful island. Its very peaceful and my way of escaping the grind of everyday life.

Why they chose this property

Condo is just 15 units of remote owners. Most times there are only three to five units occupied, so no contention for the tennis court, pool, or beach. Very private.

What makes this property unique

Near private beaches. LBK is all vacation homes, so not many people on the beach on any given day.

Seafood caught that day. See locations of Cortez Seafood and Star Fish
Seafood. About a 15 minute drive from the condo.
