Beach Castle Resort – Your Beach-to-Bay Getaway on Longboat Key
Nestled between the brilliant Southwest Florida skies and the sparkling turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Beach Castle Resort is a serene coastal escape on the coveted shores of Longboat Key. What sets this charming 21-unit resort apart is its rare beach-to-bay location—positioned on one of the island’s narrowest points, the property stretches gracefully from the private Gulf-front beach to a peaceful bayside dock, offering guests the best of both worlds.
Whether you're soaking in the sun on the soft white sands of the Gulf, casting a line from the bayside fishing pier, or enjoying the tropical breeze from your private lanai, Beach Castle Resort delivers a uniquely relaxing experience tailored to every type of traveler.
Accommodations That Feel Like Home – With a Touch of Island Charm
Beach Castle features a collection of spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom condos, each thoughtfully appointed to blend comfort, convenience, and coastal style. Choose from Gulf-front, bayfront, poolside, or lush garden-view locations, with layouts perfect for couples, families, or small groups.
Each unit includes a fully equipped kitchen, private lanai, and modern touches like Wi-Fi, cable/smart TVs, and resort-style furnishings—so you can relax just like you would at home, only with postcard-worthy views and the sounds of the sea in the background.
