I cannot say enough wonderful things about this vacation! First of all, the beach is immaculate. There are virtually no waves, it's extremely shallow, and clear. It was perfect for my 1, 4, and 8 yr olds! Our condo was literal 20 steps from the sand! The grounds were absolutely beautiful. Beautiful landscaping, trees, and grass. Very well kept. All neighbors were so sweet! It was very quiet which we LOVED! There was a very spacious heated pool that was so relaxing and felt so good! Our condo itself was so updated and cute! I loved all the bright neutral colors! Beautiful kitchen, countertops and modern stainless steel appliances! The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were very comfy! And I'm super picky and actually 6 months pregnant so that was a big plus! Plenty of extra pillows and soft blankets! We loved the flatscreen TV's with streaming services! My kids were able to watch all their normal shows! Couch and recliner was super comfy! We got Publix groceries delivered and it was so effortless and amazing! We Uber'd to nearby restaurants and nothing was more than 15 minutes away. Longboat key is seriously amazing and we've been all over Florida and Mexico and this is by far the best vacation we've ever had! So relaxing and easy with kids! Not crowded at all! Upscale and well kept community! I could go on and on! We will definitely be coming back next year!
