Beach Castle Resort #1 by RVA

Compliments of RVA, Beach Castle Resort expands from the bayside of Longboat Key to the Gulf – providing a place to launch your kayak and cast a line, a chance to spot exotic birds that stop here for our mild temperatures and to view a picture-perfect sunset over the Gulf of Mexico -- all courtesy of Mother Nature.



The grounds here are impeccable – from the well-manicured vegetation to the vast palm trees that dot this serene Longboat Key location. The buildings at Beach Castle are the color of sunshine and are accented by Bahama shutters and railings that resemble palm trees. Each unit is individually owned, which means no unit is alike and provides a unique vacation experience to our guests. However, all units provide a full kitchen, living room and private lanais – never compromising the comforts of home.



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.

The guest will also have access to the community fitness center.

Great Location
This was my first time renting at Beach Castle. It was cleaned and well presented. My only criticism is that the place had an odor. The master bath had a strong odor as well. I did informed housekeeping when we checked out. Hopefully they’ll take care of before the next guests. You can’t beat the location and the quiet beach. I don’t think I’ll be returning because I think the price it’s to high.

Great location on the gulf
The condo was located on a semi private beach. Nicely appointed condo with decent views of the gulf over the mangrove bushes. One level was a plus. We will be back one day.

Nice relaxing week
We were in need of a fun, relaxing chaotic free week with family. The resort did not disappoint. The beach was not crowded, beautiful and within very close proximity of the condo. The unit is vintage style Florida and adorable. The resort supervisor was super friendly and attentive. Maybe request a deeper house cleaning as a suggestion. Thank you and we will be back..

Nice unit beautiful setting
We had a great 4 day stay! The view from the unit and proximity to the beach was amazing! The unit is comfortable and clean, I liked having the communal laundry room close by. My only issue was that the beach would get littered with beer bottles and cigars every night we were there, it was very busy with a lot of groups.

Great place!
My wife and I stayed with some of our family and it was great! The location is perfect, beach is right outside your backdoor. The place is clean and the interior is very nicely decorated and filled with anything you need to cook. We will definitely go back again. We even saw a sea turtle crawl up on to shore and lay her eggs!
