8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Dec 2023
The rental house was very economical. It was not fancy, but close to everything (restaurants, coffee shops, and the beach. We enjoyed our time.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2023
I stayed here with my family recently and enjoyed the comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen (though no dishwasher), and a backyard gas grill that worked well. The house is not on the beach, but it is close to a public beach and not far from grocery stores and other amenities. Frankly, we spent most of our time away from the property and at the beach, but this was a nice home base for us. We enjoyed our stay!

The location was great! We love Longboat
The house has 2 out of 3 bedrooms are very hot. Kitchen very small hard to cook in and no dishwasher. It was a better house for long weekend not our 2 weeks stay. Owner very nice!
5.0 / 10.0·Jul 2021
We absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay! We are already planning our return for next year! Communication with the Taylor’s was great. We arrived and had a smooth check in. The beach house is in a quite old Florida neighborhood that was perfect for our family, and we loved the old beach house feel and the stunning outside. We were minutes from everything which was a huge plus. I highly recommend to anyone but especially families.
