About this property
Beach Castle Bliss #22 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.

We loved staying here! Loved seeing the sunrise from our balcony and the deck , then seeing the sunset with a short walk across the street to the beach! Also was great being able to walk to restaurants.
Wonderful stay for our sons wedding ~ nicely appointed unit; it had everything we needed! Great staff in the office. About a 10 minute drive from St Armand’s Key & Lido Beach (absolutely loved both) and about 20 minutes to Siesta Key (most beautifully sanded beach I’ve ever stepped on ❤️). Truly enjoyed our stay!
Everything was as listed in the description and shown in pictures. The condo had a great layout for us, all we needed for our stay and a short walk to the ocean or intracoastal waterway. Loved ther fully opening slider out to these screened patio! Definitely would consider starting hete again!
The property was immaculate upon arrival and furnishings were in very good condition and comfortable. Loved the screened in porch that is nestled up against palm trees and other tropical vegetation that rustle in the gulf breeze. It was so tranquil and relaxing. The beautiful gulf beach is a short walk. The pool was heated, nice. The manager was very pleasant. We checked in and checked out after hours, and all went smoothly. We ate out for every meal, so I can’t comment about how well the kitchen was stocked. I wouldn’t call this a luxurious or bougie place, but that’s what we loved about it. It has a very laid-back, Florida key vibe. The pictures posted are accurate.We were very comfortable here, and would stay again!

Reviewer Comments:
We enjoyed our stay in the well equipped apartment. The description was accurate, in fact better than we expected. The unit was very clean on arrival, however the balcony was very dirty and we had to clear the floor ourselves. We enjoyed several nearby restaurants. The manager was hopeless. There was a mandatory evacuation during our stay due to a hurricane. No one from RVA informed us that we had to leave, even though the front desk was managed. We are from the UK so not accustomed to what has to happen in these cases. We only found out about it by asking a waitress in a restaurant. I was, and continue to be, quite shocked at RVA's complacency. The management need to review their policies.

A wonderful experience. Great weather. Good place to stay.
We enjoyed our stay at beach castle, they had most everything you’d need for a beach outing, Towels, beach chairs and umbrellas. The condo is situated between the bay and beach, and walking was easy to both. We went with our adult kids and grandchildren and we enjoyed our stay very much! Would recommend and we will be back!
Had good linens, space and equipment in the kitchen, membership to cedars east for tennis, 25 yd swimming pool and good workout room

The place is really cute and I loved the location. The price was affordable and the resort had a lot of amenities. The beds could be a little softer (I'm not used to firm beds) but it was sleepable. I'd definitely stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay. Spacious n clean. We loved the pool n hot tub. The beach was so perfect. Lounge chairs n umbrellas provided by the resort. Quiet n easy check in.
The check in was fast and easy. The condo was just the right size for our quick trip for a soccer tournament. The location was convenient to the complex, the airport, and shopping! We would definitely stay here again and plan to visit for a longer stay soon.
We love LBK and we spent a week on the key with our family. The Beach Castle was perfect. We had access to both the bay and the beach. The property was perfect for our family of four.
Nice, unassuming property with all basic amenities. Beach is a short walk, has plenty of chairs/umbrellas and well maintained. Good location on the island halfway between two popular night spots, St. Armands and Bridge Street.
The condo is nicely furnished and very clean. I would prefer a better lightbulb in the main room lamp as I had trouble reading at night. We enjoyed the warm pool and hot tub. Beach access across the street was very easy. Would stay here again.
Great location, ammenities and quiet too. So relaxing! The condo we stayed in was so light and bright and had everything you would need! It was decorated so cute too! Would highly recommend unit 22!

Quaint condo that was perfect for family of 4. Sit on the bay dock or swim in blue ocean at private beach. We will be back as these quiet, retro locations are becoming rare.
