Happy overall. Scratchy sheets of poor quality. Clog in MB bathroom when I arrived so I had to use the other bathroom. II wasn’t comfortable on the mattress and woke up with a backache every morning. I rarely have back pain otherwise. Condo great otherwise. Loved the decor. Front desk person was friendly and helpful which I appreciated. Of course, loved the ocean!!!

Our happy place for a winter escape. Very kind, friendly staff to assist with any needs or requests. The condos are very comfortable and the location right on the beach can’t be beat.

We had a great experience. Easy check in and check out. The condo was extremely clean, which I was happy about. The place could use some updating. You could tell some things were very old (they still worked but could use an upgrade). Not a bad walk to the beach and the condo was right by the stairs. There was an elevator too for easy use if you had a lot of bags or small children. The place came with a lot of equipment for a stay more than a lot of air bnb places. Perfect for our short stay on Longboat Key. I would definitely stay there again. The general property was also very well maintained and was clean and looked great.

My girlfriends and I stayed in unit 314 as we thought it was meant to be since that is out area code. Sand Cay is a great, quiet location on Longboat Key with all the amenities you need. The unit was very clean and the perfect size for 4 girlfriends although there is a pullout couch if we had more. The kitchen was also fully stocked with what we needed to cook. We’ll definitely look to staying again!

Reviewer Comments:
Location is great, units are large and well equipped. The building exteriors, walkways, pool area and landscaping looked well maintained. The buildings are wood frame, so kids running up and down the walkways will be heard and felt inside your unit. My unit smelled of bacon and there were some Cherrioes on the floor when we checked in. We had a 3rd floor unit. There is one elevator which broke down after we checked in and was not functioning the rest of our time there. Beach wagons, coolers, grilling food, etc., all had to be carried up and down three levels. Management did not put an out-of-order sign on the elevator. The first day my wife got stuck in the elevator. Thankfully the door opened after a few minutes. I asked for additional time at checkout to carry everything down, management granted 15 minutes additional, and offer to close the office to help carry things down. I typically travel to smoke free hotels/resorts. The grounds are not smoke free, so there are ash trays around the buildings and cigarette butts thrown in the sand on the beach. Also needed to move upwind of the smokers on the beach, as it gets pretty tight between beach chairs.I would not have minded these inconveniences; however, for the price point, I expected better.If you go in with the expectation that you are paying for location and unit size, you shouldn't be disappointed.

The property was very nice. The staff at the rental office was great. The surprise was the firmness of the master bedroom mattress. It was unexpectedly hard and not that comfortable to sleep on.

This place was clean and updated. Just as the pictures show. Comfortable beds. We love the proximity of the beach and all the amenities Sand Cay has. Perfect for a relaxing weekend.
This is our second stay at the Sand Cay (first at this property) and we will continue to come back for years. It is just we are looking for in a vacation spot.

We had a great stay at Sand Cay! The condo was extremely clean and spacious with everything we needed. Just a few steps to the beach or pool with plenty of activities available as well on the property. Parking included was a bonus as well! The staff was so kind and responsive. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be coming back!
6.0 / 10.0
We liked the location of the condo and accessibility to the beach. We probably won’t stay there again though because the condo itself was just ok. Some concerns we had:
Bathroom are dated and the sink in the master bathroom would not drain. We called the office and someone came 2 days after we arrived and he said “I put draino in it and got some stuff out”, which made us feel kind of gross because our toothbrushes and toiletries were in there. There was a very large tv in the main living area which did not work, someone had plugged in a small tv in front of it, so we had to huddle around it to watch the bowl games. I called and they said they would get a new tv in the next couple of days. They finally brought a larger one on the 3rd day of our 5 day trip, did not replace the broken one but just plugged it in front of it. To be fair we checked in on 12/31 and the office was closed until 1/2. Therefor we could not address some of these concerns until then, which also added to our unease about the place. We did like that the kitchen has been nicely updated and the master was large but wished there was a little more attention to detail in other areas of the condo.

It was vacation so the TV didn't really matter but, when using it, the unit kept switching off. It would take 8-9 attempts before it would stay on. Wanted you to know. Appreciated the late check out as we had a later flight - not sure the HC crew was alerted as they knocked on door and clear was sitting waiting near elevator.

This condo is impeccable. It is clean and modern with a touch of “beach”. The murals are amazing. The kitchen supplies were useful and we appreciated the starter pack with garbage bags, dish soap etc. We come to Longboat every other year and will be back to this specific condo.

Beautiful spot
Everything was as described. Beach is perfect, 3 miles from grocery, 7 from restaurants and shopping. Easy check-in and check-out. Nice tall ceilings make the square footage seem larger. Could use some decor updates but very clean and comfortable.

Beautiful place, just what we were looking for. Wish we could book for next year at end of our stay and you were not already booked. I stayed in until 314 and suggestion for owner: for specific instructions how to work TV, kitchen really needs a large teflon skillet and a large pit for spaghetti.

Terrific location!
This was our first visit to Longboat Key and we had a wonderful experience! Communication with the owner was very easy. This unit is excellent-very comfortable, with close proximity to the beach! We loved access to grill area with a gorgeous view of the ocean. Having access to chairs is super convenient too. Very quiet! A truly relaxing vacation…we will be back!

100 steps to the beach is a dream
Searching for a place to stay - everyone has their own requirements, although there are general principles: the coast as a whole, an apartment or a house, the number of beds and the price
For many, it is important how far from the beach.
Longboat Island turned out to be a wonderful, very beautiful place, and the Sand Cay Complex is something that almost meets all the requirements.
3-storey houses are literally 50-100 steps from the wonderful beach, where there are lounges and umbrellas
Unit 314, where we spent the week, turned out to be comfortable, clean with everything we needed and quiet. Two good bedrooms, two bathrooms, two TVs, kitchen, living room and balcony - what else do you need?
Thanks to the owner of the apartment - Lyn, as well as to the hospitable staff of the administration of the complex

Good but need to be careful in some details
Good but need to be careful in some details: Overall room was good enough. Positive comments about kitchen, tv system in living and bedrooms. Things to improve: I am not happy for the air condition system, it was inconsistent, some times cool but some times really hot like not working. Another recommendation is to put more replacement bags In kitchen and bathrooms.
