This is an exceptionally clean and peaceful resort in a beautiful location. We stayed in unit 24 and found it very comfortable. The only thing they need to work on is the pool and they are apparently going to address it it the near future. Other than that, no complaints and we would go back there in a heartbeat. It... More

Beach Castle Resort offers all three of these! The private white sand beach is steps away. Beach chairs and beach towels are available for resort guests to... More

We stayed at Beach Castle #15 for 4 nights during a soccer tournament. What a lovely place! Quiet and serene. The units are basic but clean and well stocked. You have the beach on one side and the bay on the other. The pool is very nice as well. We met a couple owners and they were just delightful. Shannon,... More

The Beach Castle Resort offers a carribean vacation without taking the international flight! The condos are updated, spacious and nicely furnished. The water was a blue/green, just like the carribean! The beaches were not crowded at all during our stay because the summer is their "off season". My 2 boys (age 4 & 7) had a blast playing in the...

We stayed in Unit 22 and it was clean, comfortable and well-decorated with nice tile all over. The room colors aren't nearly as garish as they appear on the website and are actually much subtler and classy in person. Beach Castle was overall pretty nice with just a few inconveniences. The laundry area was in the next building so there... More

Clean, nice-sized rooms, responsive office. Not luxurious but, for the price, very good accommodations. More

My Dad & I just returned from 1 and 1/2 months at Beach Castle Resort. We arrived just after the big freeze that killed the FLA tomato crop and stayed until 3/2/10. We have stayed in Longboat Key for 20 years+ and enjoyed our stay at Beach Castle quite a bit. First, let me say that the cold weather was... More

Property is 8 miles from St. Armand's Circle so if you want to be close to Sarasota this is not your best bet. However, if you enjoy Longboat Key this is at the quieter end and is only 4 miles to the small bridge over to Bradenton Beach. Also only 2 blocks from two decent restuarants (we enjoyed the Blue...

Beach Castle is uniquely set on a narrow section of Longboat Key, giving you access not only to the Gulf of Mexico's BEAUTIFUL waters. But, from Beach Castle you can also access the bay and do things like fish from the dock or take a kayak or canoe out into the bay. The staff is INCREDIBLY friendly. I felt super... More

My husband and I are beach people and couldn't wait for our kids to see the ocean for the first time. When we arrived we headed straight to the beach which has soft white sand and gorgeous blue/green water. We had a beautiful second floor condo, with a great view. The porch was great for morning coffee and sunset dinners.... More
