The grounds here are impeccable – from the well-manicured vegetation to the vast palm trees that dot this serene Longboat Key location. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests. However, all units provide a full kitchen, living room and private lanais – never compromising the comforts of home. This secluded hideaway exudes a classic charm that, as vacationers, we yearn for. A place to get away from it all, relish in the Florida sunshine and reconnect with family and friends; all this while enjoying white-sand beaches, privacy and most importantly, vacation memories that last a lifetime.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our rental was clean, beautifully decorated, perfectly situated with a stunning view of the gulf to wake up to every morning. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us. We loved having turtles and a variety of exotic birds to watch from our screened in porch. The location of this condo made it so convenient to run back and grab anything we forgot when we were playing at the beach. Loved the split bedroom layout. It was a quiet and restful environment. Just what we needed. ##### Rachel B. ### 8/10 Good #### Millie S. Aug 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location This was my first time renting at Beach Castle. It was cleaned and well presented. My only criticism is that the place had an odor. The master bath had a strong odor as well. I did informed housekeeping when we checked out. Hopefully they’ll take care of before the next guests. You can’t beat the location and the quiet beach. I don’t think I’ll be returning because I think the price it’s to high. ##### Millie S.

I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit was not clean at all and had a dingy smell upon entering that didn’t go away. We had to purchase air freshener. Porch was so dirty (dead roaches as well) we couldn’t use it. Garbage disposal and many of the electrical outlets (master, kitchen, living room) did not work. Only one functioning lamp in the living room. Most of the kitchen items were dirty and/or need to replaced. You can’t beat the location and the kids enjoy the pool. We love this area and have stayed in other units here without a problem, but this unit, we will never rent again. ##### Elia S.

It was right at the entrance to the beach. Very quite. Had a nice screened in porch and sliding glass door to the outside. There were 3 TVs, but one only got streaming shows. Everything in the unit was in great condition. We loved it and would return. As we arrived, we ran into the folks who had rented it the week before and they told us that they loved it. ##### John B.

I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed here before, in this unit as well as other units. Always a good experience, so didn't hesitate to book again. This time Unit 1 was in need of an update and a thorough cleaning. It's a great setting,with a beautiful view of the Gulf, so if it's cleaned and maintained, it would be really nice...just a little disappointed this trip. Property manager was friendly, but we didn't really want to spend our week having the unit worked on. ##### Rick A.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beach Castle Resort #1 is awesome. Clean accommodations, comfortable beds, well appointed. Location has direct access to the beach. The other side of the property has the pool and harbor access. Too expensive to book for next year.

Feb 20, 2023 #### Perfect Location Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Can't beat the location. Unit could use some tlc but ultimately the beach access, walking distance to tennis, pickleball, restaurants, and sunsets outweigh the old grout, and tired linens and appliances. Chairs, beach towels, and umbrellas provided. Owners as well as management really seem to want your vacation to be great and that counts for a lot! ##### Pam C.

Jul 11, 2023 #### Beautiful beach Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have stayed in this unit a few times now and after this last visit, I will not be renting unit one. The pros: great proximity to the beach, very easy to walk to and from your room to the beach. The cons: as other reviewers have stated, this unit is dirty. It could use a very deep cleaning. I stayed here previously in September 2022 and I found live cockroaches. Same thing on this most recent trip- every single day we found either a dead cockroach, or a live cockroach. I think they were coming up through a hole in the base of the toilet where there should’ve been a screw (guest bathroom). We finally plugged the hole with toilet paper hoping for no more roaches. Also, in the guest bathroom, the shower and/or toilet smelled of sewer gas very badly. To the point that i could not sleep in the bedroom bc the smell kept me awake. For the amount of money spent (over $600 per night), these should not be problems to deal with. ##### Suzanne E.

Mar 28, 2023 #### Unit 1 Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the location. It is pretty clear that this is a rental. The pans were in bad shape, the garbage can lid was broken, the laundry baskets were broken, and we had to do a lot of cleaning when we arrived. But my wife is a clean freak. An example was dirty placemats on the table. Sinks were not clean in the bathrooms or kitchen and one shower had mold in the corners. Other little annoying things, were the clock on the wall had a dead battery and mismatched wine glasses, plates, and coffee cups. We went and bought a cheese grater and wine opener and a few other utensils we just left there. A bigger issue for me was the pillowcases were too small for the pillows, so part of the pillow would stick out. A couple of hundred people probably have used the pillow, so that was unpleasant. For the price they charge per week, the place could use a little love. All that being said.... We are going again next year. We LOVE the location and life on Long Boat. The beach is very quiet and the location was peaceful. No large or loud parties anywhere close. Sean at the office was very helpful and friendly. We found a restaurant on the north end of the island. Mar Vista. It is a must-see awesome food and atmosphere. Salarnos Pizza was good too. Get the garlic knots. You will love the sunsets, they are beautiful and right out your door. ##### Douglas Y. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Tropic Sun Towers](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Tropic-Sun-Towers-By-Capital-Vacations.h1169627.Hotel-Information) > > [\*\*\*GOLF MEMBERSHIP\*\*\* Babcock National is the NEWEST community in Babcock Ranch!](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Charlotte-Charlotte-Harbor-Hotels-Golf-Membership-Babcock-National-Is-The-Newest-Community-In-Babcock-Ranch.h60650357.Hotel-Information) > > [White Elephant Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-West-Palm-Beach-Hotels-White-Elephant-Palm-Beach.h42412055.Hotel-Information) > > [Edgewater Beach & Golf Resort by Resort Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Edgewater-Beach-And-Golf-Resort-By-Resort-Collection.h803238.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Island Luxury | Home in Windsor Island Resort, Private Pool, Arcade](https://www.expedia.ca/Davenport-Hotels-Windsor-Island-Luxury-Home-In-Windsor-Island-Resort.h60809096.Hotel-Information) > > [The Shores Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-The-Shores-Resort-Spa.h15752.Hotel-Information) > > [Bali Hai Beachfront Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Bali-Hai-Beach-Resort.h36286167.Hotel-Information) > > [Ritz-Carlton Singer Island, Palm Beach-Elegant Private Beachfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Singer-Island-Hotels-Ritz-Carlton-Guest-Efficienty-Suite.h70534790.Hotel-Information) > > [Hammock Beach Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Hammock-Beach-Golf-Resort-Spa.h994170.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Naples-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Coconut-Point-Resort-Spa.h792025.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort on Cocoa Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-The-Resort-On-Cocoa-Beach.h329971.Hotel-Information) > > [Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Pink-Shell-Beach-Resort-And-Marina.h15603.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Fort Pierce West by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Vero-Beach-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Fort-Pierce-West.h538557.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Landing Golf & Country Club-Terrace Condominium](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Gorda-Hotels-Heritage-Landing-Golf-Country-Club-Terrace-Condominium.h92008297.Hotel-Information) > > [Compass Hotel by Margaritaville Anna Maria Sound](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Compass-Hotel-By-Margaritaville.h41961327.Hotel-Information) > > [DiamondHead Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-DiamondHead-Beach-Resort.h200632.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahama House](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Bahama-House.h893658.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Panama City Beach by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Panama-City-Beach.h18867.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Miramar-Beach-Hotels-Embarc-Sandestin.h1054729.Hotel-Information) > > [Cedar Cove Resort and Cottages](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Cedar-Cove-Resort-And-Cottages.h8099611.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ben West Palm, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/West-Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Ben-West-Palm.h38983694.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h4398.Hotel-Information) > > [South Seas Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-South-Seas-Island-Resort.h40732.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach House Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-House-Key-West.h48713884.Hotel-Information) > > [Sarasota Surf and Racquet Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Sarasota-Surf-And-Racquet-Club.h9728448.Hotel-Information) > > [Mission Resort and Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Leesburg-Hotels-Mission-Inn-Resort-Club.h2057662.Hotel-Information) > > [Amrit Ocean Resort and Residences - Singer Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-West-Palm-Beach-Hotels-Amrit-Ocean-Wellness-Resort.h36247449.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Daytona Beach Regency](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Vacation-Club-Daytona-Beach-Regency.h40772.Hotel-Information) > > [PGA National Resort ](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Gardens-Hotels-PGA-National-Resort-And-Spa.h10355.Hotel-Information)
