Quiet little get-a-way

Room was exactly as pictured and had everything we needed for a quick little stay. Location was perfect and we had our own private beach with never more than 6 people on it at one time! The heated pool was spot on for the chilly nights. This place was quiet and very relaxing. We would definitely book here again!

Very basic room

The rental was very basic and on the inside of the complex so there was no view. Being on the first floor, there was a window awning so people couldn't look right in your room but that also meant that you couldn't really see out as well. The complex has a lovely pool and some of the rentals have oceanview. I just wouldn't go back to this one in particular. It was okay for a very short stay.

Lovely lbk

We loved the kitchy motel vibe. The mattress could of been better. The bath had some mold. The kitchenette didn’t have a sink so we used the bathroom sink. I realize it is an older motel. We loved the pool, mini golf & of course that beautiful beach.

Nice grounds and pool, million dollar beach

Great location on Longboat Key in a quieter stretch of the island. Property has direct beach access with lounge chairs and a well-maintained heated pool and terrace. Guests were a mix of older couples and younger families. Margaret in the office kept the public areas tidy and made great conversation. My unit was one of the smaller single rooms, compact but adequate. Other units had full kitchens and screened porches, and many guests return each year. The parking lot was stones rather than impermeable surface, great for drainage but requiring extra care when walking.
