About The Owner

My parents bought this condo before it was built in 1975. I have spent every vacation since on this wonderful island. Its very peaceful and my way of escaping the grind of everyday life.

The Owner purchased this condo in 1975
What makes this condo unique

Near private beaches. LBK is all vacation

homes, so not many people on the

beach on any given day.

Seafood caught that day. See locations of Cortez Seafood and Star Fish

Seafood. About a 15 minute drive from the condo.

A great location - most definitely one of, if not the closest condos to the beach. We especially enjoyed being able to walk out from the lanai direct to the beach! Both the condo and the entire property were clean and comfortable. This stretch of Longboat Key is quiet and serene and the sunsets are just awesome! Can't wait for an opportunity to go back again.

We've stayed at this condo several times because its perfect for us. Just walk off the porch and on to the beach. We also love Longboat Key. You can walk for miles on white sand beaches that are never crowded. Lots of interesting restaurants to eat at, or cook in. We enjoy having dinner on the patio or out
on the picnic table near the beach.

Join the Sunset cocktail party and meet new friends.

This is a great place to vacation. The beach is right in back of the first-floor condo. There is a large tree with a picnic table where we had dinner to the sound of the ocean and the view of the setting sun. In front there is a heated pool with a grill where we cooked steaks. We will definitely go back.

We have been coming to Longboat for about 10 years & love it!!! This condo is on the ground floor, great to walk out your door & be on the beach. The lanai is perfect for sitting & listening to the beach, & the pool is outside your front door. The sunsets are breathtaking, and you can walk across the street to the bay & watch the sunrise, all in a day. You can even drive up the road & see peacocks roaming the neighborhoods. The restaurants are excellent, and evey year we find another new one! Would recommend it to anyone who wants a perfect stay in Florida

My family has rented this condo every year for the past five years. We plan to be back next year. We
love it here. The condo is on the ground floor with an easy walkout from the Lania. The white sands
beach is incredible. Never a crowd. Room to spread out. Pool is great size for the kids, tennis court
always available for Mom and Dad. The Covert III condo buildings extend to the bay side and there
is a nice boat dock to fish from or park your boat if you have one.

My husband and I totally enjoyed our stay at this beautiful condo. Beach right out the back, pool in front, and manicured ground. The condo's kitchen was fully equipped, beautiful lanai, where we spent our morning breakfast, and was very clean. And I might add I loved being on the first floor. Our children are grown, but it would be a great place to bring children. I would definitely recommend this condo to my family or friends.
