Beautiful view of the water

We totally enjoyed the condo. It was just what we wanted. A great private view of the Water and every morning we sat on the patio and had breakfast and enjoyed watching the kayakers go by . We even saw dolphin right in front of us. The accomodations were great. Clean and comfortable. Just what we were hoping for.

Our stay at this property was everything we had hoped we would experience in Florida. It is in a great location and is a very comfortable, spacious, and clean place. Importantly, the hosts are wonderful people and communication with them was easy and welcoming. We look forward to returning to this wonderful place on Longboat Key. A big thank you to the owners!
