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.

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.

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!!

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.

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.

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.

Location is great but this unit is terrible
This unit is very poorly maintained. Could not close the bathroom door and the shower door was broken but we could take showers. The unit is very poorly equipped. Hardly any silverware. The air conditioner is noisy and keeps going on and off . Bottom of vanity was broken, blinds did not work in living room. Would not stay here again unless they did some maintenance.

Escape on Longboat Key
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: WE enjoyed our stay at Cabana Beach Club"We enjoyed our stay at Cabana Beach Club. We prefer smaller complexes and this was the perfect size. The condo was clean and in good condition. The unit is located next to parking lot and swimming pool. We had a family staying above us and we never heard them at all. The complex was clean and maintained nicely. Our only issue is the split unit AC is located in the bedroom, right next to the bed. The unit is noisy which makes sleeping difficult and you can't shut the bedroom door if someone is using the sofa bed because they would not get any AC.The beach is beautiful and a 1 minute walk from condo. There are some good restaurants and a little market near by and we thought the location was ideal. Overall we thought the property was great.

Great location uncomfortable
The unit has an excellent location and the owner communicated very efficiently at first until I messaged re:sand inside the pull out couch on arrival, then I received no response. The unit was fairly clean overall but there was sand around the couch and inside of it. The pull out mattress had a sheet on it covered in sand. The living furniture needs to be replaced , the couch sinks down on one side and the chair is old with dark stained arms and leans forward. The bed itself was comfortable but has a plastic cover on it and had 4 sheets which slid around all night. The unit is older which is fine but needs updated badly. The TVs were nice ..The mops buckets etc are left in the patio by the doorway which looks trashy. The heating/ac is located in the bedroom so If you shut the bedroom door there is a drastic difference in temperature in the living area. I was a bit disappointed in the unit but it does sit steps from one of the best beaches in Florida

Easter weekend stay - 5b
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property location is wonderful and quiet. The pool was in need of a cleaning and the property manager kindly let us use the much larger & nicer one next door. 5b was not a great unit. Better than a hotel but dark. Bed was very comfortable, pull out couch not so much. There is no aircon in the living area where the couch is so keeping that room cool was a challenge. The mini-split unit in the bedroom was extremely loud. Slept with earplugs. The unit was also very dark. Downstairs and outside every window was dense foliage so you had zero view. My friends stayed in 7b and it was amazing - so the property is great but your stay is very unit dependent.

Clean by pool good for two people
Well, I’ll start with the good. The place was spotless and literally 8 steps from the pool which was nice. You can’t see the beach due to a large structure in front of the unit. The grills and grill area was nice. The not so good, at least for me. Hardly any WiFi or Verizon signal. Basic cable ( nice TV’s though. The bed was comfy, but the large hotel type air conditioning unit is literally by your head when you sleep...... it’s noisy The refrigerator is small ( under counter) no problem for me except that you cannot make any ice. If you are going to eat meals out, this place works, otherwise forget it. No stovetop or oven. The canal units are across the street but you can sit at the canal and fish. It’s dark at night, so leave the lanai light on if you are going out otherwise you will have a hard time finding the correct key.
