We loved the kitchy motel vibe. The mattress could of been better. The bath had some mold. The kitchenette didn’t have a sink so we used the bathroom sink. I realize it is an older motel. We loved the pool, mini golf & of course that beautiful beach.

Nice grounds and pool, million dollar beach
Great location on Longboat Key in a quieter stretch of the island. Property has direct beach access with lounge chairs and a well-maintained heated pool and terrace. Guests were a mix of older couples and younger families. Margaret in the office kept the public areas tidy and made great conversation. My unit was one of the smaller single rooms, compact but adequate. Other units had full kitchens and screened porches, and many guests return each year. The parking lot was stones rather than impermeable surface, great for drainage but requiring extra care when walking.

It's in a beautiful location on the beach, loved the heated pool and the lounge chairs on the beach. The front office staff was helpful and the other guests nearby were quiet. I did not like that someone was smoking on the property (guests or staff?). The room was clean and cozy. One critique is that it is dark. There is one window and it' covered by a dark, metal exterior hurricane shutter. The room could use an additinal tall light with a bright bulb. The Expedia description & description for this room is also inaccurate and misleading. When I booked it--and even now, it's described as sleeping 4, but it's a small studio (one room), with 1 bed, and could not sleep more than two people max. There is no space or bed to sleep two more people. This should be changed ASAP.

Yes, but
although this unit was clean and the bed was comfortable. there was not enough light in the room, the two lamps shown in picture were not there. Also, even though the unit was small, it would have been nice to have a comfortable chair to sit on. Unless I missed something, It could not have slept 4 people.

Room was small but clean and great location right on beach. Only major complaint-tile in shower looks a bit gross-needs to be replaced.
