Very nice accommodation. Well stocked with cooking utensils. Loved the beach and neighborhood. Always felt safe. Pool was heated and very accessible without many people. Outdoor gas grill was appreciated. Great overall!

The property needs some additional love. It felt like “just a place to stay”. TLC was definitely missing. What the photos do not tell you is the flooring, couch & kitchen need replacement.

Condo is situated footsteps from the beautiful gulf and shell haven of Whitney Beach. What could go wrong? Nothing! Everything was easy to figure out and access from the front door to a wide range of appliances. They owners have supplied everything and some, yet you have plenty of room left to bring your own supplies. Having booked multiple times on LBK this was honesty the most perfect setup for a 2 bedroom that gives you room to invite family or friends to share the joy of the beach .Owners were responsive to a few minor issues and nothing came up that was actually worth complaining about. Overall, a wonderful month for me and can't wait to have the opportunity to go back..

This property is a gem ! We have stayed here before and loved it both times ! The condo is outfitted with all of the amenities you will need . The priceless ocean view and sunsets are unbeatable . The owners reply immediately to questions and have kept up the property very well. There is also on site maintenance and so many friendly neighbors that are there for you during your stay. The location is key and there are so many options in the neighborhood to walk , eat , exercise, shop or just watch the ocean. I highly recommend this property !

Whitney Beach
This was our third time staying in this condo overlooking the Gulf. It has a wonderful view and beautifully equiped kitchen. As other reviews have said the linens do need updating as the sheets would not stay in place on the beds. Once the owners can get to the condo I am sure they will take care of this. wish we could rent it again next year.

Our Winter Retreat
My husband and I were so happy, relaxed and thoroughly enjoyed our long stay. Theo and Elize are wonderful hosts who addressed our questions/concerns immediately. This is our kind of place . . . peaceful and friendly.

My husband and I spent the month of May at the condo. Another couple joined us for one week of our stay. If you are looking for a great view and a nearly private beach, this is the spot.
The condo is well equipped and well furnished.
The only items that are less than top notch are the sheets that keep coming off the mattress (The problem looks to be the mattress pad.) and the small, dated bathrooms.
All in all, it is a great place to stsy.

Spectacular views and beach!
We spent the month of March at this fantastic property. The views and the place are gorgeous! Walking distance to 5 restaurants including the new Shore restaurant on the water. Fully stocked kitchen and gas bbq across parking lot made for convenient in unit cooking during covid. Extra beach chairs and umbrellas in the storage unit. Check in and check out was a breeze. Pool was wonderful and the people very friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. In unit laundry is key. We’ve been going to Longboat during March for over 30 years and usually stay at the south end. This was a nice change of pace. Quiet but still only ten minutes to Publix and 20 to St. Armand’s. We fished at least three times a week across the street on the bayou. Catching snapper, pompano, and a black grouper. Very fun.
A few minor notes: the bathrooms are small. If you’re used to large luxury bathrooms with dual sinks in the master, then just be prepared. My husband immediately moved into the guest bath since we were alone most of the time. Also, the owners might want to invest in a few deep fitting cal king fitted sheets. I had to re-attach the fitted sheet on the king bed every morning. The bed was extremely comfortable with a wonderful pillow top, but the sheets didn’t fit properly. Beach replenishment started ten days before our departure obstructing our view, but the owns have no control over the local government plans.
All in all, a wonderful property and stay!
Thank you Theo and Elise!

After traveling to the North end of Longboat let for 5 years now , my husband and I decided to rent a place on our own. We knew the location of this condo was exactly where we wanted to be but we were not familiar with the complex. Upon arrival we were so pleased with the location and the amenities! The condo is located on the second floor with a perfect view of the ocean , not only from the living area but the master bedroom as well. The condo has been totally updated unlike many others condos on the key. The beds are comfortable and they have everything and anything you would need during your stay. The furniture is so comfortable and the layout of the condo worked perfect for us to spread out, and work from home , cook and watch the amazing sunsets ! I love to cook and the kitchen was very well stocked with anything you may need during your stay . I did notice the maintenance man daily on the property so it was comforting to know that if we needed anything . I only have one suggestion , if you are picky about your bed linens like I am, you might want to bring your own . They bed linens they provide are fine , just worn from use . The owners Theo and Elise were extremely pleasant and easy to communicate with. We definitely will be back , what an awesome stay we had at Whitney Beach!

It is even better than the pictures!
We absolutely loved our month at your beautiful condo! It exceeded our expectations. The view is absolutely fantastic. We have stayed in Longboat Key for many years, but this was without a doubt our favorite place. From the superb accommodations to the quiet beauty of the north end of the Key, we could not have asked for more. I knew we needed to return when one evening I awoke to the full moon shining like a spotlight on the gulf from the master bedroom. Thank you for letting us return to your little piece of heaven next year!

Wonderful month on the beach
Beautiful condo overlooking the Gulf and beautiful beach. Very quiet and beautifully furnished and well equipped. Only suggestion might be to add additional flatware.? We occasionally came up short since we usually ran the dishwasher only once a day.

Beach Living At It's Best
Our family of five stayed at this property during the entire month of July 2017. We had an amazing experience. We've been renting properties on HomeAway.com for over 8 years and this condo is now on our "Top 3 Favorite" rentals. The property is all about location, view, floor plan and amenities. If your looking for a non-touristy and private retreat on the beach in the Sarasota area, Whitney Beach in Longboat Key is a perfect location. The second floor beach and ocean view is priceless. The condo is very comfortable and with all the amenities any home renter will need during your stay. We really liked that the condo community is small with just few buildings on the ocean front side offering a lot of privacy. The condo's layout is great due to the open concept of the living room, dinning room and kitchen which makes the unit feel larger and spacious. It's stylish modern contemporary decor is simple yet sophisticated. Everything you need from shopping, dinning and entertainment are just a few minutes drive away. We'd like to also mention that the condo owners were wonderful to work with, booking the property directly with them was effortless. They were very professional, efficient and helpful during our entire booking process and rental experience. We are definitely returning for another stay. If you are considering this property, look no further.

Wonderful Condo - Stunning View!
We stayed the month of April 2017. We had an absolutely wonderful stay here.
Loved the way the condo was set up for maximizing the view. The pool is wonderful and we spent lots of afternoons there. The location was wonderful for us to visit all the places and restaurants we enjoy.
Thank you!

A wonderful vacation!
We've just ended our month long stay at this lovely condominium. This property is beautifully decorated and very well equipped with comfortable beds, ample bedding and towels, all the kitchen necessities plus up to date appliances. The beach is beautiful! The sunsets take your breath away! We have been extremely pleased with the ease of communication with the owners who have been most attentive.
If we had one comment to recommend for this property it would be to bring your own beach chairs . The complex has lots available for you to use, however the nightly storage location for the chairs is at the farthest end of the complex and it was a difficult trek each night to return them.
All in all we would definitely recommend renting this condo!!

Wonderful Relaxing Beach Vacation
This condo on Whitney Beach is exactly as pictured on the website. The beautiful beach is right outside your door for long walks and shelling. From the 2nd floor there are great views of the beach and sunsets. The location, on the north end of the Key, was very convenient to restaurants on Anna Maria Island, as well as, the fresh fish market in nearby Cortez. Having the washer and dryer in the unit is a huge plus. The pool is very nice although there is no shade in the pool area. The owners responded very quickly to any emails.

Our best stay on Longboat Key
312 Whitney Beach was at least as advertised, arguably even better. The furnishings are appropriate and modern, the rooms spacious, the view of the sunset without equal. The owners responded to our queries immediately and helpfully.

BEWARE! Disappointing and hidden costs!
On arrival the beach and pool were closed due to work, the owner states he was not aware of this, however, other owners said they had been informed, only a few condos were being used. The beach reopened 25 days later, 3 days before we left. The kitchen is tired and poorly equipped, cabinet door mechanisms broken. Small discount offered by owner, but he did ask that we did not give a bad review. On return money was deducted from our safety deposit for extra electric and washing. As the beach was closed we had to leave the condo each day, using less electric than would have been used. Only the bed linen was left as directed in the manual, the condo was left clean. Beautiful location but be aware of owner's hidden agenda.

Mr Michael Barnett
We had a great time in this ideally situated home, we already knew the area very well it was our 5 th visit at this time of the year, the position on the beachgave us wonderful views and great walks, we found the apartment well furnished and clean, the only thing that could have improved our experience would have been a small welcome pack such as bread milk etc. As we were arriving very late.
We would definitely return

Condo stay for 2 months
The listing description is completely accurate. The property is modern, immaculately clean and in a very quiet condominium complex. There are 180 degree beach views and a walk out to a private sandy Gulf beach.
The environment is safe and it was wonderful to sleep to the sound of the surf.
Longboat Key has convenient shopping and good restaurants. There are fresh seafood stores. Tennis court on premises and nearby Municipal Golf. Occasional traffic congestion. easy ride to Sarasota airport. The best recommendation I can make is that we are going back next year
Customer service was a moot point as nothing was wrong.

Great home away from home!
The description of the apartment given is absolutely correct and we can recommend renting the apartment.
It has everything you need and want at a vacation home directly on the beach. It is spacious and clean and all appliances are in best order. There are beach accessories also at hand.
The owners are very friendly and provide more than enough information in binders on the apartment itself and on the area. The information provided helps you find your way around very easily, if you are new to the area. In case you need help with something or you have questions there is a person you can contact that provides immediate help.
We can definitly recommend this apartment and if we are back in the area, we would try and rent is again, if available.

Comfort, elegance, quality, views
This is a one of a kind condo. If you agree that less is more, North Longboat Key, Whitney Beach and this specific condo cannot be beat. The owners of this unit have thought through every detail. The unit is uncluttered, spacious, attractive and very comfortable -- from the seating to the beds to the linens. The kitchen is well stocked and very easy to work in. The owners are a pleasure to work with. We hated to leave and plan to return.
