Tropical Beach Condo! - Longboat Key

This charming seaside condo is directly on the pristine white sands and serene blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico in exclusive Longboat Key, Florida! Located on the second floor, overlooking the heated pool and ocean, this dreamy one-bedroom condo is optimal for sunset viewing from a private, screened lanai. Take a 30-second walk to the pool and onward to the secluded beach with complimentary chairs and umbrellas. Enjoy a relaxing vacation at our peaceful condo at Silver Sands Gulf Beach Resort!

Upon arrival to Silver Sands Gulf Beach Resort, you will be wowed by the tropical property! Conveniently located mid-island on Longboat Key, just off the main road, Gulf of Mexico Drive, this small, intimate resort, only 35 units, has so much to offer: direct, private beach access, heated pool, mini golf course, shuffleboard, two BBQ grills, complimentary beach lounge chairs and umbrellas, onsite laundry, and complex office with staff.

When you arrive, pick up a parking pass from the main office (open 9A.M. - 5P.M. daily for any questions), and then make your way to our condo, Unit 256, located on the second floor for optimal sunset viewing! If you arrive late, there are also two laminated passes in the condo - use and return - easy! The condo has a smart lock for smooth entry and exit. Each guest is assigned a secure, individualized 4-digit code (deleted upon departure!), allowing for 24/7 arrival and freedom from carrying a key when on the beach...!

Upon entering, our condo features a spacious bedroom with king-size bed and cable television for viewing while lounging. There is a large closet and chest of drawers for storing belongings for a quick weekend getaway, if youre passing through, or a long stay, especially if you are a snowbird escaping those bitter winter months up North...!

Walk further, and you reach the living room with ample seating and queen-size sleeper sofa, which is just perfect for extra members of your party - the little ones! There is a Smart television, also with cable, and DVD player for entertainment, when youre not on the beach, plus a variety of reading material, board games, and childrens toys. Wifi, of course, is available throughout.

There is full heating and air conditioning throughout the condo, plus a ceiling fan in the living room and an extra floor fan, if needed.

For convenience, we have a Pack N Play, highchair, baby tub, and beach toys available for families traveling with children!

The living room flows into the fully stocked (coffee maker, blender, knife set, Tupperware, wine glasses, etc.) kitchen, with dishwasher, including everything you might need for ease and comfort on your vacation!

The bathroom features a combined tub and shower, which always comes in handy when traveling with kids!

Beyond the main living space is a large, screened lanai with patio furniture, ideal for eating a meal or sipping a cocktail!

On property, there is a large, heated pool with deck, featuring complimentary lounge chairs. Pick up a beach umbrella (extra one in our closet too!) and walk through the sea grapes (no need to cross a busy street!) to reach the private beach with more lounge chairs. No need to bring your own!

If you need a break from the beach, theres a fun mini golf course and shuffleboard too...!

There are two propane grilling stations poolside with BBQ utensils in our unit for the nights you want to grill out!

At the complex, on the ground floor, there are two washing machines and two dryers. Each load costs $2, and quarters are available from the main office with detergent stocked in our condo. There is a main dumpster, along with recycling bins, on property too for trash disposal.

The best part of our condo is the ample space, ocean view, and all of the amenities that Silver Sands has to offer, most importantly, easy and quick beach access!
