Gorgeous Beachfront ~ Spacious & Updated 2/2 ~ Heated Saltwater Pool

This luxury beach getaway is waiting for you to enjoy. It is directly overlooking the beautiful shores and sparkling turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico from the second floor.

The light and open living/dining room features a wall of sliding glass doors that open to the protected lanai, and bring the far-reaching beach and pool views directly into the condo. The 4K TV in the den has premium cable including all the HBO channels, a Google Chromecast for streaming all your favorite content as well as a built in DVR for recording your favorite shows.

The spacious kitchen with dining for six guests has ample granite countertops, a breakfast bar with seating for three, a wine rack, a Nespresso machine and is well equipped with all the cooking utensils to make a world class meal. Rare to find, this condo offers a convenient built-in office with shelving and highspeed, gigabit internet.

For optimal privacy, the split bedroom plan is the ideal setting as they are separated completely with the laundry room between them. The spacious master suite offers a king sized bed, large gulf-front view from the double window and a quaint reading area. The master bath offers a large dual vanity with ample counter space and a walk-in closet. Both bathrooms are equipped with a hair dryer, toiletries and extra beach and bath towels. The 4K TV in the master has premium cable including all the HBO channels as well as a Google Chromecast for streaming your favorite content.

The guest room has two twin beds which can be converted into a king, upon request. The HDTV has a Blu-ray player, premium cable including HBO as well as a Google Chromecast. There is a pack and play located in the guest bedroom closet for our young guests. The condo has a large laundry room inside the home which has a full sized washer and dryer as well as an iron and ironing board. There are beach umbrellas, kites, snorkels and masks, boogie board, floats and other pool and beach toys located in the laundry room. The front door is greeted by a nest video doorbell which allows you to know guests have arrived with an audible message indoors.

Comprised of only six units, this private retreat offers you and your guests a heated swimming pool, open deck with tables and umbrellas, a barbecue grills and boardwalk down to your private beach in an intimate setting. There are chaise lounge and Adirondack chairs located down the stairs from the boardwalk right on the beach.

This condo is located within walking distance to several excellent Longboat Key restaurants include Harry's Continental Kitchen across the street, Euphemia Haye Restaurant just a thousand feet south, and both the Lazy Lobster and La Norma Italian just twelve-hundred feet south.

There are two rental companies located across the street for bicycles, golf carts and scooters for a day of fun exploring the island -- Come n Go Rentals and Backyard Bike Shop. Also, Durante Park just five hundred feet south offers gorgeous, winding trails through the mangroves which lead to panoramic views of Sarasota bay. St. Armand's Circle which is a few minutes away offers over a hundred shops and restaurants for your enjoyment.

The condo was clean and spacious. We enjoyed how close it was to the beach. With only 6 units in the complex, it was quiet. We enjoyed the pool. The condo owners responded quickly to our questions. We will stay here again.

Went for a girl's trip and found this gem of a place in Longboat Key! The condo was beautiful and spacious and right on the beach. Could not have asked for a better location. Wendy and Jack were awesome and easy to reach. Highly recommend.

The property is beautifully decorated and has anything you could possibly need. Great location across from Durante park for walking. Gorgeous view of the gulf and can see dolphins from balcony. Beach is right off the boardwalk and wonderful. Had the place pretty much to ourselves, not crowded. There is a public beach access on either side but not too crowded and we were there spring break. Owners great to work with! Love love love it there!!

Beautiful property on the beach with a nice salt water pool. Gas grill. Gorgeous vies of sunset from this 2nd story condo. Small building with only 6 units. As tennis players we were able to purchase a one month membership to the nearby walking distance Cedars Resort. Our friends came for 3 days.

My friends, family and I had the most wonderful vacation while staying in this condo. Of course, you can’t go wrong with choosing LBK for a vacation location, but the condo and it’s location on LBK was beyond perfect. It was great to have Harry’s across the street for morning coffee and great meals. The owners were a delight to deal with and quick to answer any questions I had. The condo was spacious, well-equipped and had the most incredible views. It really felt like a home away from home. I honestly can’t imagine staying anywhere else. I will be booking again for next year and hopefully for many years to come.

A beautiful property that is spacious, spotless, comfortable and well stocked. This place is on the quiet end of the island with no high rises and the sand is compact and perfect for long walks. Convenience store, pizza, restaurant and prepared food-to-go is right across the street. Seriously comfortable beds. With only 6 units, the pool is basically yours. Gracious hosts. You will not be disappointed. A lovely find.

We had a wonderful 2 weeks staying in this condo. It was perfect for us in every way. The beach was beautiful, the condo was extremely nice and well appointed, the location was great, and we had spectacular weather every day. An added bonus was the refreshing pool. The owners were also very responsive to any need we encountered. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home. We are already looking forward to next year! Sincerely, Wayne and Cindy

We spent three weeks in Azure by the Sea and wish we could have stayed longer. Jack and Wendy are super hosts doing all they can to provide a first-class experience for their guests. The condo is outstanding! It is comfortably furnished, linens and beach towels are plentiful, and the kitchen is well-equipped. The condo is well maintained and very clean. The view is awesome! And the sunsets were exceptional. It was only a short walk to the beach where lounge chairs awaited us. We appreciated the beach umbrellas Jack and Wendy provided for the use of guests. The location is ideal – easy driving distance to shopping and restaurants; and a convenience store, deli, several restaurants and a park within walking distance. Azure by the Sea is definitely on our list of places to visit again.

We found Azure by the Sea to be ideal for a 6 unit condo. This ocean front property met all our needs and was professionally cleaned. The owners could not have been more accommodating. We do plan to return for several years to come.

Wendy’s condo is in a small complex of 6 units on the northern half of the island away from the high rises. The condo was very well equipped and comfortable with new furniture, etc. We cooked most of our meals during our 2 week stay., grilling once. The nightly sunset “show” from the lanai was a highlight of the day. The heated salt water pool was wonderful. The beach was a few steps away and fairly deserted. The gulf water was nice, warmer than at New England beaches in the summer. We enjoyed kayaking twice with Happy Paddler kayaking. Our restaurant outings were to Shore on LBK and Dry Dock Grill, both with open air seating and both excellent. We had a fun lunch outing to Star Fish Co. in Cortez, picnic tables by the docks, with excellent seafood. We will hope to return next year!

My husband and I stayed for 2 weeks at this beautiful condo. It was just what we were looking for-a lovely place to stay, small complex, pool, and on the beach. Jack and Wendy were terrific hosts. From check in to helping me try and locate an item I thought I left behind, they have been a 10 on responsiveness and graciousness. The condo is quiet, clean, pretty, and at a terrific location. I felt very at home. As coffee makers all eventually do, the one at the condo was giving up. I let Wendy and Jack know and they had a new one delivered right away. I highly recommend Azure by the Sea”

My family and I were absolutely amazed with Azure by the Sea. If you're looking for more of a quiet relaxing vacation, with very minimal distractions then this is most definitely your kind of spot. I could list many highlights, but narrowed the most direct to the following for my wife, my parents, and myself: Location: Amazingly private, there are only 6 units to the building itself, and during our stay only one other person was there. So we pretty much had the pool and beach area to ourselves. The water in the gulf was perfect on one of the days of our stay, so much so that a manatee actually floated in between my wife and I while we were near the shore! Yes you read that correctly. (Just FYI.. they can touch you, but you can't touch them. Lodging/ Interior Amenities: You will be hard pressed not to appreciate the layout and furnishings that Jack & Wendy provide. For our stay we deliberately packed light, and really did not need anything other than 3 sets of clothes, minimal food/ drink, and a great attitude. Both bedrooms are well beyond plush, and the master bed was incredible for myself as I'd never slept in a bed that comfortable... EVER! So much so, my wife and I are looking to invest in the same mattress setup. As we stayed during the wet season, we really appreciated the "home away from home" feel you develop when/if inclimate weather of the day hits. Exterior Amenities: The view is simply stunning from the screened in patio & also from the master bedroom. Early morning sunrises with coffee in hand were my wife's favorite part of the day. Likewise, sitting outside during clear nights and seeing the moonlight waves of the beach was equally impressive. The pool area was very private and secluded. The ability to have a heated saltwater pool was very therapeutic for myself, and a great place to go if the Gulf was rougher or we just want to float in peace. Overall Impression: If you've been to Longboat Key.. then you already know how amazing it is IF you can find the right spot. Believe me... THIS IS THE SPOT! If you've never been to the area, then you're truly missing out. Other rentals in the area may be "nice".. but really cannot compare to what a gem you will find at "Azure by the Sea".

Hidden among the driveways of Longboat Key's main road is a gem waiting for you to discover! We wanted it all...directly on the beach, a pool, a small property, a lanai to keep our bugs, convenient location, and privacy. This property checks all those boxes and more! Add in the hosts with great communication and gear you need for a beach day, and there's no reason to search any further!
