I was lucky enough to spend a long weekend at this lovely studio condo! It had everything my sister and i needed for our mini trip for a family wedding. The condo is steps from the pristine beach with beautiful views from the balcony. Looking forward to returning soon!

FVC Condo was very nice and clean, but was really disappointed with the huge wedding tent deal on the beach in front of the condo. Had to listen to construction type noise for two solid days on Thursday and Friday while they installed the floor decking and huge tent. Literally took hundreds of 4 wheeling trips back and forth with beeping noises every time they went in reverse loading and unloading the tent floor decking. Also placed a generator in front of our room that ran for two days solid. Wedding was Saturday night then had to listen to take apart deal on Sunday morning and finishing up today as we were leaving. Had I known about the wedding and tent set up noises, along with partially blocking our view I never would have signed up for this (expensive) condo. It really put a damper on our experience at this resort. I highly recommend verifying there’s no wedding or special event going on in that area of the beach before you pay for this condo. FVC response to my disappointment with this booking was minimal at best. Lesson learned to try to think of every negative scenario that can happen with a booking… Tom Byrne

Loved the spacious beachfront balcony for breakfast or afternoon relaxing. This high-tech unit is part of the Longboat Key Resort, which is a big plus. Furnishings and beige and brown colors were quality for their time but dated; brown carpet somewhat matted; the unit seemed dim. Good quality towels but dated bed covers. Stiff mattress. Prefer colors and furnishings with a coastal vibe.

Property was not as expected. First, know that this is a studio property…. It is described as a beach front club suite. We didn’t catch this and that is on us but you need to know this is a studio, one room rental. Pictures also show a pool that is not available to renters because it is for club members only. Other amenities are also not available to renters. Second, on arrival we learned we had to drive about 10-15 minutes to pick up the keys for the property. Not convenient and adding driving time to pick up and return keys is a pure waste of time. Finally the property had a very bad odor when we entered it. We bought air freshener and advised the property management company. They said someone painted furniture but it was not paint small, it was a foul, stale smell. Two days later, without any notice to us, 3 HVAC techs showed up to work on the air unit. They spent 45 minutes in the property and were pleasant but I have to say that I was surprised we were not informed. Had we not been there, would they have just come in to all of our personal belongings? Didn’t feel right and we shared this with he management company but got no response. Overall a beautiful area but you can find better properties and service.

Check-in process was easy once we read the email but still a bit of a hassle since the office is offsite. The resort was a bit noisey for our liking, lots of yard maintenance happening right at 8am! Location was spot on and unit was very clean. Thank you

Excellent location and the unit was very well appointed. Steps to the beautiful and peaceful beach and only a short drive to all the shops and restaurants at St Armand’s Circle. The more time we spent here, the more we know we’ll be back soon! Thanks you Sue and Dallas for all the great info about the area.

Good overall experience. A little disappointed we could not use amenities associated with property. That being said, I knew this up front. What I didn't know was that we would not be permitted to bring our own beverages to the pool and beach. Need to resolve this ie, either give guest the ability to purchase beverages or allow guest to bring their own to pool and beach area.

We loved our place except for the TV. Perfect for 2 people, magnificent views of palms, beach, water and sunsets- what more could we want?! Also the best location anyone could have on Longboat! All the staff that we would see would greet us and seemed to be happy to have us there! I believe the restaurants, etc. would do very well accepting renters for their businesses but we never had a problem finding great places to eat for sure . Their loss!!! We truly enjoyed every minute of our stay..thank you…. Roberta Prigozen

Beautiful private beach next to inlet and flocks of birds. The rental does NOT include access to club golf, tennis, resteraunts but does co.e with 2 recliners (worth $30/day) on the beach with staff that will bring you towels for the recliner, head and feet. Umbrellas are an extra $15/day. The water is clear al.ost no waves. (We did start our visit during a red tide with some smell and a couple dead fush) Otherwise the white sand was great with a tractor fluffing up at least once a week. There are small shells to collect. The pool and hot tub were also great with the same staff providing towels. Minor issues we had sugar ants in the room, we are responsible fir taking care of garbage but dumpster at another building. The place is very well furnished and neighbors were few. On Saturday evening and Sunday night weddings were seen from balcony. The later one ended at 11:00 pm. Location to other activities is good.

The view from this balcony is everything! It couldn’t be any better! The condo was beautiful… CLEAN, and inviting. It was a very spacious, cozy, comfortable place to be. The kitchen was fully stocked and everything was neat and organized. If I had something negative to say, it would probably be the tub/shower situation. The shower is behind a glass wall that doesn’t move, so you have to take the shower head down before adjusting your water temp… otherwise you get soaked. But that’s it! The grounds were beautiful, the Security guards were so very nice and ensured we knew where to go. I will definitely stay at this property again.

Studio apt. was clean and well stocked with essentials. Some work needed to be done such as a freezer that was broken as well as a microwave. Apt. Was ocean front and quiet. Rental agent informed me that some of the facilities at resort did not include restaurant service, drinks a bar or beach but did include pool and beach lounges, towels.

The rental process overall was very easy. The only bad thing about renting this property was that ‘outsiders’ of the club are not allowed at any of the restaurants or pool bars so all food and meals need to be from off property which gets a little old.

We loved the room and the location . We walked the beach every morning. We stopped for breakfast our first morning there and were then told we did not have access to any restaurant on the property . That was ok because we found fantastic places elsewhere however I think the resort could do much more if they allowed us “ outsiders “ to spend our money there too

I was a little nervous based on a few reviews of this property, but the condo is excellent. It is spacious, tastefully decorated and has an excellent view. It is slightly inconvenient to not have access to the pool bar, but that is a small sacrifice for the value you receive when renting this unit

We gave the rental operations manager all of our feedback on our last day. There were a number of annoyances at the condo although the condo itself was lovely. First night, had to drive 5 miles to and from the condo to pick up our keys, instead of someone meeting us at the condo. Pretty lazy and inhospitable for what we paid. All kinds of hidden fees. Elevator wasn’t working so had to slug our suitcases and griceries up 27 stairs. My husband is not in good health. Couldn’t get the tv system to work for a few nights. There was a beeping noise every night from the cable system so did not sleep well. Weren’t allowed to purchase anything to eat or drink at the pool because they didn’t take credit cards. Yet for $25 a day we could rent an umbrella with a credit card. Weren’t allowed to dine at their restaurants. Will never go back!
