This is a perfect resort for a single, couple or family. I purchased a week sight unseen and couldn't believe how it acceded my expectations. The staff is friendly and helpful. The resort offers free tennis courts, bikes, pool, gas grills and the beach is fabulous. The resort is well maintained. All you need is your swimsuit. Perfect place to... More

Great resort love the area, free bicycles, free beach chairs and umbrellas. I travel a lot and this is the only resort I don't want to leave. The staff is wonderful. I like this resort so much that I purchased two weeks after my second visit. Oh did I mention the sandy beach, beautiful blue-green ocean, wonderful shells, great sunsets,... More

When my wife and I booked this resort, I did not expect much. Boy, I was wrong. This is a great laid back beach resort. It is not fancy, no valet service or lobby shop but it is 100 feet from the beach. Suggest you get a room on the Gulf side. The beach is great, beautiful sand and water.... More

Activities available such as beach side pool table, tennis, shuffleboard, and bikes. Laundry also accessible. Large private beach is awesome, quiet pool also... More

The units are perhaps a little old but extremely clean and spacious. The atmosphere around the complex is laid back and just what you would want for a relaxing holiday. The other reviews cover the beach, tennis court etc. The pool is heated and 8ft deep at one end and not too small. The BBQ area is spacious although the... More

We stayed in Longboat Key a couple of years ago in an on-the-beach location, but decided to stay at Gulf Tides this time based on positive reviews and amenities. We are thoroughly pleased. Our unit is on the second floor of the units that are not on the beach side and while we don't get a full view of the... More

We would stay again! It's a quaint little resort with comfortable condos, a variety of amenities for the whole family and views that are PRICELESS!! It's also within close proximity to lots of shops and eateries. This is a must-visit vacation destination!!

Wish we could get an RCI trade here next Feb! Staff is friendly, responsive, pleasant and approachable. Our week stay was a taste of paradise.Murphy beds are so comfortable! Full kitchen and spacious units allow for "at home" cooking/dining. Gulf side view lends to total relaxation and rejuvenation. Sunsets are beautiful. Ideal heated pool and depth for swimming are other... More
