Direct Oceanview on Longboat Key!

This sublime oceanfront studio (We own two more in the same building, plus one down the road - email for more info!) is directly on the pristine white sands and serene blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico in exclusive Longboat Key, Florida! Located on the second floor, overlooking the heated pool and ocean, this dreamy studio condo is optimal for sunset viewing from a private lanai. Take a 30-second walk to the pool and onward to the secluded beach with loungers. Enjoy a relaxing vacation at our peaceful condo at The Beach on Longboat Key Resort!

When you arrive, make your way to our condo, Unit 222, on the second floor, for optimal sunset viewing, dolphin observing, and manatee spotting...! The condo has a smart lock for smooth entry and exit. Each guest is assigned a secure, individualized 4-digit code (deleted upon departure!), allowing for 24/7 arrival/departure and freedom from carrying a key when on the beach...!

Upon entering, you will walk through a small entryway to view the main living space! Our condo features a queen-size bed, along with a queen-size sleeper sofa for the extra members of your party - the little ones! There is a Smart television, with cable, for entertainment when you're not beaching it, along with a variety of reading material, board games, and children's toys. WiFi, of course, is available throughout! Also, there is a closet and chest of drawers for storing belongings for a quick weekend getaway or a month-long stay...! For family use, we have a Pack 'N Play - convenient!

The kitchen, with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances (including dishwasher!), is fully stocked (coffee makers - drip and Keurig, blender, Tupperware, wine glasses, knife set, etc.) including everything you might need to cook meals in on the days you prefer not to dine out...!

The bathroom features a combined tub and shower, which always comes in handy when traveling with children!

Beyond the main living space is a large, private lanai, with high top table and two chairs, ideal for eating a meal or sipping a cocktail! There's also a lounge chair for kicking back and relaxing!

The condo has both central heat and air. There is a smoke detector and fire extinguisher, as well.

On property, there is a heated pool with deck, featuring lounge chairs. Pick up a beach umbrella and stroll (no need to cross a busy street!) to reach the private beach with more lounge chairs. No need to bring your own!

A propane grill is on the lawn with grilling utensils in our unit!

On the ground floor of The Beach complex, there is a free washer and dryer if needed during your trip. There is also a main dumpster for easy trash disposal.

The best part of our condo is the direct, unobstructed ocean view and private beach access - just sublime!

Area Information

Our condo, Unit 222, is located within The Beach on Longboat Key Resort on beautiful, quiet Longboat Key, which is a barrier island just outside Sarasota, Florida. The condo is situated in the middle of Longboat Key (LBK) with easy access to many other fun local tourist spots, like Coquina Beach, Holmes Beach, and Anna Maria Island to the North and Lido Key and Siesta Key to the South.

There is a tremendous amount of entertainment in the area - something for every member of your guest party!

Just a note, oftentimes guests combine a trip to Disney World with a trip to the beach! The beach always comes after Disney for obvious reasons...! Our condo is a 2-hr drive, 115 miles, away from Disney! Another popular destination is Busch Gardens (amusement park!) in Tampa, just a 1.21-hr drive, 68.7 miles away!
