off of your balcony or at the beach are absolutely breathtaking! You

birds, dolphins and manatees.
Longboat Key is on the West Coast of Florida, near Sarasota and one
hour south of Tampa. Sought-after Longboat Key has some of the most
unspoiled beaches in the area. Our access is only a short walk away
(5 minutes)from our home where you have the feeling that you have
your own private beach.
Longboat Key boasts some of the wealthiest residents, and
finest restaurants in the Sarasota area. From this home, it's a
matter of minutes to St. Armand's Circle, a shopping paradise.
Longboat Key is a ten-mile long barrier island attached at each end
by a bridge to the mainland. If you would like to go to theme parks -
we are one hour from Busch Gardens of Tampa Bay or two and a half
hours from Disney and Universal Studios. Galleries, museums, and
live theater are within a 25 minute drive.

The house was incredible- a 3 minute walk to the beach down North
Shore Drive with easy
beach access. Our priority as a family was to have fun, relax and
get ice cream
everyday! Great layout, the kitchen is well stocked with all the
tools you need.
Beautiful! We can't thank you enough for allowing us to experience
Longboat
"residential-style". We are already planning a trip back for next
year.
PS- the boys loved the elevator!
