Restful retreat in December

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great View! Access to beach was very convenient and private beach area was great. Pool area was very nice. Staff was very friendly and responsive to our needs. Location in the middle of Longboat Key meant we had a 10-15 minute drive to grocery stores and restaurants - only downside.

Lovely stay in Sand Cay 218.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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 location of the property couldn't be better. We watched dolphins every morning from the balcony and the beach. The condo was very clean, and had everything we needed and more. The bathrooms were small but had lots of storage and towel racks. The furniture was very nice and comfortable. There was not a lot of overhead lighting but the bathrooms were well lit and the condo was not dark due to the windows facing the beautiful gulf. Also loved the vinyl wood look flooring, so comfortable to walk on and clean! Wouldn't hesitate to book this condo again!
