Beach Castle Resort

Featured Amenities

Between the azure blue of the Southwest Florida skies, and the turquoise Gulf of Mexico waters sits Beach Castle Resort on Longboat Key. A true beach-to-bay community, Beach Castle rests on one of the narrowest points of this prestigious island, allowing the community to extend from the Gulf side to the bay side – a quality few of the privilege to carry. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accentuated by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. The grounds here are lush in flora and fauna, creating a tropical backdrop to your island vacation. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests.

Beach Castle #2 boasts some of the best ocean views on the island from the living area and private bedrooms. We welcome you to relax on your private screened patio and awaken your senses in the balmy, salty breeze and the sounds of the waves lapping against the shore. We guarantee this will be your favorite spot for your morning brew. From your private lanai, take the spiral staircase directly to the soft sands of Longboat Key for a romantic stroll or spend the day lazing in the warm sand. The colors of the Gulf of Mexico are a perfect backdrop to the updated, beachy décor in the unit and provide all the amenities of home, yet all you expect from a Longboat Key vacation. Beach Castle #2 features an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, spacious living areas and beautifully decorated bedrooms, complete with flat-screen TV’s.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.

Limited Membership Privileges: Guests of Beach Castle Resort #2 will have the option of temporary membership privileges at Cedars Tennis Resort located at 645 Cedars Court on Longboat Key. The limited temporary membership allows the guest access to fully-lit Har-Tru tennis and pickleball courts, community bicycles, fishing pier and Jr. Olympic heated swimming pool. The guest will also have access to the community fitness center.

Unit #2 Features: Two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit with some of the best ocean views on the island from your private bedrooms, living room or lanai.

Wonderful pool, plenty of beach towels in the condo, everything was well-supplied, the place is so attractively decorated, beach toys & umbrellas in the closet, plenty of large garbage bags and other excellent amenities provided. Many thanks to the owners for all the lovely updates including living room seating, bedspreads & throw pillows, the new porch flooring, new patio furniture and area rug. Thank you! I’ve been staying in this condo for 30 of the last 41 years! Much appreciation!

Our unit was lovely as always and look forward to returning next year. The overall property is maintained (some post-hurricane work still being done) and management easy to work with. Appreciate the access to The Cedars (although bikes need some tlc) and the tennis court next door. Only negative comment is that some guests left fishing and beach equipment piled outside their doors and I'm afraid the laundry machines may be on their last leg!

Our return to Beach Castle was very nostalgic. My parents used to bring me and my 5 sibling for 3 weeks in the summers - late 1970’s through 1989. The McCalls owned Beach Castle at the time. I was THRILLED to find the peace and care of property is equal to that time I was last here. My husband and I truly relaxed! We enjoyed the beach view tremendously. Unit 2 was perfectly equipped. Bed was very comfortable. And I was so happy I finally got to use the “twisty stairs” :)

Perfection!

Beach Castles Unit 2 was great. It was just as described, very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the screened balcony where we spent most of our time when we were not at the beach. Beautiful views of the Gulf and beach. We appreciated the laid back vibes of Longboat Key in general and of our Beach Castles rental. It was really a wonderful rental.

Beautiful apartment on the beach. We had reserved it for our daughter's family and they were very pleased. They had an unforeseeable issue that was resolved quickly and satisfactorily, thank you Sean. And, the location was perfect. We would highly recommend this property.
