About this apartment rental

Compliments of RVA, Beach Castle Resort expands from the bayside of Longboat Key to the Gulf – providing a place to launch your kayak and cast a line, a chance to spot exotic birds that stop here for our mild temperatures and to view a picture-perfect sunset over the Gulf of Mexico -- all courtesy of Mother Nature.



The grounds here are impeccable – from the well-manicured vegetation to the vast palm trees that dot this serene Longboat Key location. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests. However, all units provide a full kitchen, living room and private lanais – never compromising the comforts of home.



This secluded hideaway exudes a classic charm that, as vacationers, we yearn for. A place to get away from it all, relish in the Florida sunshine and reconnect with family and friends; all this while enjoying white-sand beaches, privacy and most importantly, vacation memories that last a lifetime.

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: The home was spotlessly clean and well appointed. It didn’t feel like a rental. It felt like we were in a well-loved luxurious home. The beach and dock on the bay were perfect for walking, relaxing and fishing. We wish it were a little more affordable. We splurged as this was last minute as our cruise plans canceled. We usually plan things in advance and would love to come back, but at $500 for one night with the cleaning fee it would be out of our reach financially. We loved our stay and wished we could have stayed longer. Longboat Key is so quiet and beautiful. It might not be ideal for those seeking to party or nightlife, but for us it was just perfect. Thank you.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was fantastic, it was steps to beach however, the unit was sub par for the price. Broken sliders, broken toilet, terribly uncomfortable beds and pillows. Dirty shower curtain in bathroom, kitchen although it looked updated was stocked with old and mismatched things like flatware glassware and older, low end appliances. Whole unit needs an update and refresh! Wanted to enjoy being in the unit but just put a damper on the trip. The Beach Castle resort was lovely as always but we will surely choose a different unit next time.
