We liked the property and the location. We were not expecting to have a mini fridge. The mini fridge limited what we could keep in the room. The beach was quiet. Still lots of devastation from the hurricane. We visited shops and some had been open just a couple of months. We did enjoy our trip. If you visit this area try to support these shops and businesses.

Lovely place

I loved being at the Cabana Beach club....it was just me and it was absolutely perfect. A very short walk to the beach and only a .5 mile walk to Harry's corner store for necessities. The unit was very nice and very clean. The ceiling fans could use a dusting but truly, it was a lovely place to stay.

Good place for 2

This place was exactly how it was described. I don’t know how 4 people would stay there. It is small, but was perfect for my husband and I. We enjoy eating out so a big kitchen wasn’t necessary for us. Great location close to the beach. Very clean and location on Longboat was great! It was a quiet spot for us to relax. Definitely recommend!!

Perfect beachfront getaway!

We loved this unit & all it had to offer. Only downside was lack of a king size bed being that we are taller people. Otherwise, the location & amenities were perfect! Everything was included even beachfront loungers, beach umbrellas, & beach towels. I would definitely stay here again & rent a larger unit with my family.

Bare Minimum Cabana Beach Club – Disappointing Stay, Disorganized Check-In, & Subpar Accommodations

Our stay at Cabana Beach Club was a disappointment from the start. After traveling all day, we arrived to find no key packet at the designated pickup spot. The after-hours line was useless—the agent couldn’t find my reservation and admitted she was just an answering service. Nearly an hour later, someone finally called and vaguely directed us to a different property next door, which had never been mentioned.The condo was tiny and poorly equipped. The “kitchen” was just a kitchenette with no stove—an issue since I’d pre-ordered 200 in groceries expecting to cook. Essentials were missing: no kitchen knife, few mismatched dishes, no extra trash bags. The bed was uncomfortable, the AC only cooled the bedroom, and a thin interior door let in every conversation and bathroom noise from the unit next door. Sleep was nearly impossible.Though the pool and beach were close, the beach was rough and full of shells—not ideal for kids. We weren’t even given the laundry room code and had to borrow one from other guests.Only one trash bag was provided for a multi-day stay, which pretty much sums it up—bare minimum service. For the price, this rental fell WAY short. Sanibel Arms West offered far better value, comfort, and service—so that’s where we’ll return. RVA Rentals, Cabana Beach Club, and VRBO need to do better. Guests deserve more than this.

Good location almost on the beach

This one bedroom efficiency is in a good location the property is on the beach but the unit is near the pool and parking area. It is an easy walk to the beach we where back and forth many times. It has a nice screened in porch with table and chairs. The unit has bed covering, and window treatments that need to be replaced as they are a bit worn out. There is a small refrigerator and a microwave with community grills on the property. Over all a clean comfortable unit that met our needs. The easy access to the beach is certainly the key for this unit.

Great 4th!

Check in was so easy! Just pick up keys and go. The condo as a little smaller than I expected, but it worked wonderfully. There were three of us for a long weekend. The condo was very clean. We loved the closeness to the pool and beach. The beach area was clean and quiet. We actually had a manatee swim right up to us! We were able to go to local restaurants and shops. The only suggestion I would make is to have a serving bowl and serving tray. When we bbqed it would have been nice to carry things to the grill in one trip. Thank you for having us! We loved the stay! I hope to stay again.

Fabulous Location; Property Needs Some TLC

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Positives: Can’t beat the location; on the beach, screened patio, good size. RVA manager Christy very nice as well as staff; easy to work with. Negatives: Not clean, furnishings old and poor quality, terrible mattress and pillows (bring your own), no drawers in kitchen so silverware placed under sink with cleaning supplies, bathroom needs work... basically, the unit needs an overhaul and property grounds need better care. Once unit is updated, we would recommend.
