Turtle Crawl Inn - Longboat Key

Apartment

The grounds are always kept immaculate. The staff are friendly and helpful. Everything you need is available like towels, umbrellas, chairs and anything you need for your room. I like villa 82 for the screened porch and pool access out the back door.

Been coming here since 2013 and absolutely love it.

It was amazing so clean well cared for the condo from ZillI villas are updated with a pool. Putting green and great beach and views.

We had the most amazing experience here. It was just what the doctor ordered. The place was clean and very cute. I will definitely return, the price is unbeatable!

Very private and Comfy place, wish we had beach front next time!

Gorgeous views, sunsets are incredible, this is our 2nd time here, would highly recommend! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Had a great visit! Great place and awesome private beach! Loved this condo! The views were amazing! The staff was so responsive and friendly. Definitely will stay will here again!

Very quite, serene, nice pool that's warm and jets in pool for a jacuzzi. Looked directly at the ocean from 9 ft sliding doors. Private patio. Room. Happy friendly staff. Loved it.

Very nice vacation spot. We stayed in the condo Suite 302, which has a private balcony with a beach view. The condo was very homey and clean. Full kitchen with provided dishware, coffee maker and even a small dishwasher. The bedroom was very cozy with 2 queen sized beds and a flat screen TV. Also had a wall safe in the closet. They had plenty of extra pillows, blankets and towels in the condo, we didn't even need to request any more during our 3 night stay. The beach is absolutely beautiful and they have plenty of lounge chairs for guest use and umbrellas by request. There's also a heated pool, small put put green and grills with covered patios for outdoor eating. Everything was perfect, I highly recommend Turtle Crawl Inn for your next vacation.

I did not like the room at all. First the old-fashioned furniture. Dirty Bad smell. The bathroom very bad looking. Curtain dirty and broken. The dirty floor. Poor hygiene. They did not have free laundry service. I did not have an internet signal. The dirty pool. The lock of the room broken. Furniture with a bad smell. It looks more like a motel than a resort. The fan that had the room had too much dirt. The sofa in the living room supposedly serves as a bed but it was more wire than bed.

Awesome food and affordable.

There are a few gems in Florida to really escape to — Turtle Crawl Inn (get yourself a 5th floor condo tower — the views are amazing at sundown… sigh) is a genuine treasure… the sand is like fine white sugar, there are beautiful banyan trees just across the street, the pool is quiet, the beds are comfy, the kitchen is well stocked, the towels are always fluffy after a great shower — the condos are seriously the best — I've always gotten super lucky w/the 5th floor — just *swoon* every time — it's now become a family thing. Anyway… I highly recommend this incredible spot and, if you've got more than 4 people or would rather not have a condo or have a family, any of their other units are fab — my sister has sworn this to me! lol…

We have been staying here for about 5 years when we visit longboat key but I doubt I will be staying here again. No sheets on extra bed. No pillow cases either. The room was not very clean and I killed about 6 or 7 roaches. Not acceptable. Very disappointed this time.

Great, secluded location. Rooms vary, so try out several to find the best fit. Amazing beach and lovely ocean view.

Beautiful place for a wedding. * Shooting Star Photography.

Emailed the new management to inquire about rooms and booking with no response. This did not happen with prior management. Can new management explain why the lack of customer service?

The best beaches, but the rooms amenities lacked what was promised.

Unit 304 was awesome, perfect views, lots of space and nicely decorated. Six people fit comfortably in this one bedroom condo, with two queens and a pull out couch. Coffee maker in room but you must bring your own coffee. Refrigerator was very convenient for long days at the beach with cold drinks and ice. Interesting dishwasher, very pleased to have because nobody wants to hand wash dishes while on vacation. We ran out of toliet paper, but got extra towels and toliet paper from the front office, but it's not open 24/7. So if you run out after 5pm you might need to head to the very close by beautiful publix. The prices at publix seemed similar to the one close to me, it was not a tourist rip off publix like you can find by Disney. Overall the condo was clean, the staff was pleasant and friendly, I'll return for those awesome view again soon.

Very nice beach and pool. The room was decent and a nice, quiet feel. Longboat key is a great place.

We had a EXCELLENT time for my BEAUTIFUL daughter's wedding that we had on the beach right before the sunset it was a VERY BEAUTIFUL WEDDING! We rented 6 rooms for our family and friends! The rooms are clean and Beautiful rooms with an excellent view super nice employees reasonable rates! I highly recommend the Turtle Crawl Inn this BEAUTIFUL place on a scale from 1 to 10 overall 10! PEACE.

This is a wonderful condominium complex available for seasonal rentals. Situated right on the Gulf of Mexico the view is spectacular. The rooms are remodeled and there is a pool to relax or take a lounge chair out to the beach. This is a very peaceful place to take a break. If you're planning to visit Longboat Key I highly recommend this establishment.

Room 73 is mold infested. I can barely breath. Since the office closes at 5 pm I cannot change rooms either. This place should be condemned.

We spent a few days here three years ago and loved our accommodation. Nothing needs to be said about Longboat Key, it's paradise. Sadly the apartment we had rebooked is not up to par anymore. We don't know who is responsible for this, whether the owner or the company that runs the place. For the rather hefty price you pay you expect to find the apartment in ship shape. For example the silverware contained no dinner knives but enough forks to throw a big party. We asked for knives and got three of the worst quality imaginable, the already existing cutlery being not much better. You are expected to draw the blinds at night because of the turtles but that would not help the turtles much. The verticle blinds have quite a number of elements missing so that the window with the blinds drawn looks like a mouth with some teeth missing. Not nice to look at and the turtles probably would still get confused. Besides this there is one lamp that does not work, neither does the DVD player in the living room. The set of drawers in the bed room has one drawer that is difficult to open as the knob keeps coming off. Finally, the bathtub looks terrible as the layer of paint or whatever it is has worn off making it dirty looking. Summary: It's all about making money without investing into the place. Upon bringing our dissatisfaction up we were offered an upgrade next time we come but who would come back.

If you book here, you better be able to go. Had a hurricane hit our area and the hotel refused to let me cancel booking.

Very pleased! Quiet and peaceful! Panoramic view of the Gulf.
Staff very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely return!
Condo.

My wife and I have been coming here for 10 years. Individual condos for rent. Most are 1 bedroom. Each is different. Beach is beautiful. Close to St. Armand Circle. A ton of great restaurants close by. It's our favorite vacation spot.

Nice location, nice clean and we'll run.

It's a vet good place including TV, an oven, Microwave, 3 beds and outside a golf area and a beach area in the very back. Bad shower though with very low water pressure. Bad internet as if many people are there the internet may be extremely low. Laundry room in the hotel very good. And a table capable of 6 people. And couches in the living room with multiple areas to sit. Good view outside in the balcony area to look at the beach water! And very good cozy bedroom with 2 beds and the other being in the living room. A very good location with multiple beaches nearby and fishing areas. Quite good service except things like expensive things TV packs and cooperation. A very good inn to be in overall. Clearly one of my favorite inns or hotels I've ever visited!

Friendly staff, very helpful for late check-in and general things. Rooms are nice, but could use more windows on the inland side to generate natural breezes. Rooms are spacious and equipped, but well used. Beach is nice, and putt putt green is a plus in the daytime, but a dangerous obstacle course in the mandated darkness of night.

Stayed in the Zilli Villa, right on the beach! Amazing house with lots of space and amenities… Rooms are large with their own TV's and comcast cable. Amazing view! The only downfall was the Wi-Fi for our unit was shotty at best, even after their tech reset it and it's range didn't cover the house.

We stayed in a nice room and the kitchen was nice. Had beach front access and a nice view of the ocean. (also had Wi-Fi)

My brother and sister-in-law have returned every year since we found you. They treasure the view and their daily walks on the beautiful beach!

We enjoyed staying at Turtle Crawl Inn Resort! Weather was warm (end of Sept), but just about perfect for us. We liked being able to cook our own meals, but we also visited some really nice restaurants close by. A very nice shopping area is close too! (St Armands Circle just a few miles south). We'll be back!

My wife and I stayed in one of the tower condo units and it was great. The location cannot be beat. Convenient for everything we needed. Most importantly it was just beautiful, warm, and relaxing. We love it here!

We had a wonderful time during our week long stay at the Turtle Crawl Inn Resort on Longboat Key, from the warm reception to the nicely up kept grounds. Our room/condo was on the main floor with a nice patio and seating area, plus we could walk right onto the beach. The condo was very clean, tastefully decorated and comfortable. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed many of the Sarasota area attractions and quiet walks on the beautiful beach. Hopefully we will be able to return for another visit soon.

My in laws came in from Ireland last year for our destination wedding and we got them reservations at The Turtle Crawl Inn and we all thought it was a wonderful place to stay. They had a beautiful view of the beach and it was a very clean and comfortable place to stay. I would definitely recommend staying there.
