Where to stay in Longboat Key

Default Image

Bay Isles

Bay Isles might not have many top sights, but Longboat Key Beaches and St. Armands Circle are two attractions nearby that you can check out.

Bay Isles
Mar Vista Dockside Restaurant and Pub is the most perfect dining atmosphere I've ever encountered.

Located on the Sarasota Bay on Longboat Key, you can dine just feet from the water under a canopy of live oaks entwined with subtle lighting.

The restaurant resides in a building built in 1912. Surviving a hurricane in 1921, makes it one of the twelve oldest surviving structures on Longboat Key.

Longbeach Village

Though Longbeach Village might not have many top sights, you can venture to the surrounding area to see attractions like Jewfish Key and Coquina Beach.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

We were very disappointed with our room . Wanted a king bed and decent view . We were told by management that we booked thru Travelocity so we could only get a standard room . Our terrace was over the parking deck noisy people smoking not pleasant !
