Say Hello to NO rEGRETS! Light, bright Florida furnishings, original paintings and comfortable appointments, all combine to create a vacation location to remember.

This spacious, pet friendly, three-bedroom, three-bathroom, vacation home is ideally located mid island on Gulfbay Drive, with 180 yards to the beach and 150 yards to the tranquil waters of the bay, surrounded by the 35 acres of Joan Durante park .

An entertainer's paradise - this home includes a large private patio and private fenced pool with multiple dining areas, a fire-pit and park views. This is a "state of the art" SOLAR HOME with solar power to the grid and backup battery power for the TV and Internet. 150 MB Broadband WiFi throughout. (Very handy if the island power goes out)

With a quick 5 minute walk to the beach via your own deeded private access to the beautiful sugar sands of Longboat Beach or a walk through the park out the back door, to the tranquil quiet bay, you can surf in the morning and kayak in the afternoon!

No beach crowds or noisy beach traffic or parking problems at No Regrets!

Out the back door, Joan Durante Park with its 35 acres of walking trails, grassy picnic areas and children's playground is dog friendly and perfect for walks, BBQs or just riding bikes and playing games.

NO rEGRETS is named affectionately after our local friend, Eddie the Egret. You will see him walking along the front lawn or across the road looking for food.

Longboat Key is only 3 feet above sea level, so NO REGRETS was wisely designed with a "key west like" elevated floorplan..you can enjoy the beaches and tropical atmosphere without the worry of flooding! A fast elevator carries guests, baggage and shopping quickly upstairs to the main living area.

With an open elevated floor plan, the garage and pool, bathroom, bar, hot tub and BBQ are on the first floor and the living and patio areas on the second floor, together with an elevated deck overlooking the pool (with BBQ and dining table and chairs), this light and airy home has bright colors and comfortable furnishings including a large screen UHD 3D TV for the days when the beach is too windy or too hot and a DVR so you can keep up with the shows you simply can't miss!

Small dogs (
The home has solar power backup and 150mps broadband internet for gamers. Security cameras are located on the side stairs, front porch and pool/ spa areas to provide security for the property when its unoccupied. We dont record the video from these cams.
The one interior cam in the family room is disabled unless the alarm is activated.

BBQ facilities downstairs by the heated pool and a covered hot tub and patio with serving bar and bathroom, simplify outdoor living, even if the weather is showery!

WiFi is available throughout the home and around the heated, lighted pool; a UHD TV, DVR and DVD is also available in the family room, Master bedroom and 2nd bedroom as well, so the kids/ teens can watch their programs, without disturbing adults entertaining.
After an afternoon at the beach, cool off with a quick spray from the outdoor shower before jumping into your private fenced in pool or if you have been playing tennis or fishing- come home and relax in the 28 jet hot tub! A convenient downstairs bathroom is nearby.
Or you can enjoy snacks and drinks from the serving bar before heading upstairs for dinner or to nearby restaurants.

If you're in the mood for something finer, Longboat Key's famous 5 star Euphemia Haye restaurant is only a 100 yard walk away down Gulfbay Rd and the Center Shops has excellent seafood and italian restaurants also available, less than 1/2 a mile away.

If you want to relax before dinner; have a cocktail on the upstairs deck, while you watch the kids swim below in the pool or join them in the hot tub.

NO rEGRETS has almost everything you'd need for a spectacular, safe and enjoyable Florida vacation memory.

IT JUST NEEDS YOU!

We pride ourselves on our guests repeat stays and offer repeat guest discounts!

My fiancé and I spent three wonderful months at No Regrets on longboat key. Their location, the amenities, and the overall ambience of the property was just perfect. The host was very responsive to any needs of ours and we felt truly welcomed at the property. We have no regrets for staying at.No Regrets. It is truly heaven on LBK.

No R'Egrets had many positives. The kitchen was exceedingly well-equipped. There was scarcely a pan or a tool I reached for that wasn't there. The street is nestled in a nature park that borders on the bay, which was a great place to walk the pup (especially because dogs are not allowed on the beach!!!) Dave called the first day to make sure everything was in order, and explained how to make some adjustments to the pool and hot tub to meet our needs. Since we had not stayed in Sarasota before, there was lots to see there (Motte Aquarium, the Ringling, the Arts and Crafts museum in Tampa/St Pete. ) It was good that there were things to do, because the red tide was terrible for nearly a week (we couldn't walk on the beach without coughing or stepping over dead fish). Not Dave's fault, but he even offered to add a few days to our reservation to make up the time. The beach is beautiful, and not crowded at all, and everyone enjoyed the hot tub.

The property backs up to a fantastic park with bay views. Great for walking dogs and meeting nice people. There is a walk to the beach, but they provide a wagon. The beach was beautiful. The home is welcoming and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Great kitchen. The pool is nice for a swim when the red tide keeps you off the beach. I would stay here again.

Our family has traveled to Longboat Key and Anna Maria for years, especially as our boys were growing up. It had been awhile and we were looking for a place to get away for a few weeks to relax and get some sunshine. We took our dog with us! This home was close enough to walk to two of our favorite restaurants - Euphemia Haye and Harry's. When we didn't go out to eat, we enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen and the grill. The path through the mangroves and park were a great place to walk the dog. The beach was a quick walk down the lane and across the street. Our young adult son was with us, too and the way the house is designed with a living area and a family room type den with television, he had plenty of privacy when he wanted it. We reached out a couple times to David with questions and he was very responsive. We would definitely stay there again.

Last year we took a chance and booked No rEgrets for the months of February and March- totaling approximately 60 days and nights. To summarize, we are so very sorry to leave. The house has been perfect for our needs; we are a middle aged couple with 2 small dogs. My husband set up an "office" in one of the bedrooms and managed to work during the week. I enjoyed the lovely pool, the nearby beautiful beach and exploring Sarasota. The house is well stocked and incredibly comfortable for guests. The kitchen has everything one needs to cook delicious meals, and there are a number of good restaurants near by. The proximity to the Joan Duarante park was a lovely bonus and we had many beautiful walks with our dogs there. Communication with the owners was seamless and prompt. As we say our good byes tomorrow to Longboat Key, we will carry with us wonderful memories from our time at No rEgrets! Thank you David and Cynthia! Cynthia and David Stark

No rEgrets is comfortable, convenient, private & secluded.
No rEgrets is comfortable, convenient, private & secluded.
No rEgrets is a great house, comfortable, convenient to the Beach, Ringling, Mote, Selby Gardens, restaurants and shopping on St.Armands Circle. Yet it feels private and secluded. There is a one car garage for your use with everything you'll need to make a 7 minute walk easy and the beach fun. There is an outside shower to wash off sand. There is a new elevator which makes unloading and moving in easier than hauling gear upstairs. The backyard is fenced for pool/hot tub privacy and safety for your dog. There are comfortable tables and chairs around the pool & Grill. The house is in the center of miles of groomed trails (with lots of birds) that lead to Bay views. It is walking distance to a few great restaurants. This house has the privacy of "split living." On one side of the house is the Main Queen Bedroom Ensuite with a TV and a Big Walk-in Closet w/hangers. Next room is a Sunroom with Big Screen TV (with surround sound). The Sunroom sofa is a big Sleeper. On the other side of the house is a hallway with 2 bedrooms and a shared 4 piece bathroom. The front rm has a set of twin beds. The smaller back rm has a full bed. Outside of this hallway are the shared living areas. The Front Living room & Dining Room are great for family games & meals. The room opens to a deck with more seating & a grill The Kitchen has a breakfast counter with stools. The cupboards are well stocked for cooking and entertaining. The pantry has items to help get you get started. There are plenty of pillows, sheets, luggage racks, towels, hot pads and RUGS. It is so nice to have a rug on the floor in the bedroom. The Laundry Closet has cleaning supplies if needed. The host has outside lights on timers which make returning after sunset welcoming. 🌴We enjoyed the pool very much. The host David had the heater turned on early for our arrival in January 2022. If your dog loves the water, sand and playing with all types of dogs I highly recommend a trip to the Venice Brohard Dog Park and Beach. It's an hour south of this house. It was a joy working with the host. David was always available to answer questions and quick to resolve little mishaps. David and Cynthia truly worked to make sure my family had a great holiday. 🌞My family enjoyed staying at No rEgrets very much. 🏖

We enjoyed our stay at No rEgrets the week between Christmas and New Year's. The property was very clean and well furnished; we cooked most meals. The beach was a fun walk and we used the wagon to carry supplies. Walking at the nearby park was a wonderful bonus and we took some family photos at the overlooks. Our group was all adults and David and Cynthia worked to make sure we could use the pool and hot tub despite recent bad weather. There are nearby restaurants that do carry out, call early, stores and a beach market two days a week. We also visited the nearby Mote Marine Aquarium. It was a lovely vacation. Thank you!
