About this property

1/1 Beachfront, VIEWS, Pool, Private Beach Access

Proudly offered by Florida Vacation Connection, this beautifully updated 650-square-foot Beachfront Jr. Suite is your ticket to paradise on Longboat Key.

Wake up to the soothing sound of waves and panoramic views of the turquoise Gulf waters right from your bed. Step onto your private lanai to sip morning coffee, watch dolphins play, or enjoy al fresco dining as the sun sets over the horizon.

Inside, every detail has been designed for both comfort and style. The King-sized bed is dressed in soft coastal linens and fluffy pillows. Updated vanities, spacious closets, and floor-to-ceiling mirrors add a touch of elegance and function to the dressing area, while a safe provides peace of mind for your valuables. The bathroom offers a spa-like retreat with Italian porcelain tile and an onyx-inlaid tub and shower.

The fully equipped kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, featuring sleek cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and stylish lighting. Dine indoors at the granite table for four or step out to the lanai, where a second dining table and a chaise lounge invite you to relax and unwind.

Stay connected—or unplug completely. A 55” smart TV with cable, complimentary Netflix, high-speed secured Wi-Fi, and web TV options are included. Additional conveniences such as a copier/printer, washer and dryer, ceiling and table fans, hair dryer, iron, and ironing board ensure a seamless stay.

While resort amenities such as golf, dining, tennis, fitness center, and room service are reserved exclusively for resort guests, our renters enjoy access to the stunning private beach, pool, and hot tub area—all at a significantly reduced rate compared to booking directly with the resort.

Please note: No transactions take place on property, with the exception of beach umbrella rentals available through the Concierge.

Located behind the gates at the coveted southern tip of Longboat Key, the suite offers a peaceful and prestigious setting—just a short drive to the vibrant shops and restaurants of St. Armands Circle and the cultural delights of downtown Sarasota.

Sorry, no pets permitted.

Come experience the charm and elegance of this Beachfront Jr. Suite and discover the special magic of Longboat Key.

Island Inn is perfect for a couple! We were delighted with the location -steps away from the beach and an easy drive to great restaurants. The unit is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially enjoyed the balcony table and chairs for morning coffee and evening happy hour.
