Sand Cay Longboat 2025

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: Sand Cay never disappoints. The unit we stayed in was very nice. The grounds were well maintained, and the AC system was working! The beach was the beach and hot for this time of year as expected. The only issue was the very loud music between two separate groups at the pool on the 27th.

Your own place on the beach

The feel of owning a place on the beach, no tourist tower and congested areas, no "saving chairs" by the pool, etc. Do your own cooking an enjoy the view. This unit is as pictured, a wonderful oceanfront view from the balcony, kitchen, and family room. Was perfect for our small family (2 Adults, 2 Kids).

Perfect spot

This unit had perfect ocean view and appointed with everything you needed and more. Sand Cay is the best place to stay on Longboat, as it does not have a stale and bland hotel feel. The private beach is exponentially less crowded than that of the neighbor beaches. We drove up and dowm longboat and Anna Maria and won't stay anywhere else next time but this unit at sand cay
