Outstanding Stay, We'll be back!!

My wife and I had an excellent five day get away. The rental was super nice, close to the beach, nice outdoor cooking area, nice heated pool. Just as described and we plan on returning. Close to anything you may need and in a quiet area, it honestly checked all of our boxes. Only one suggestion: The pillows desperately need replaced.

Turtle Crawl Inn resort review

Was a nice place. Right on the beach. Absolutely no problems. We had a great time. Great restaurants nearby and a park a block away with tennis pickleball shuffleboard and more. Saw a great sunrise and sunset. Wish we had stayed longer than a week. Loved it.

Peaceful get-away

Wonderful friendly location. Only thing we would have loved was a better view. It was very close to the ocean...but couldn’t see it. Otherwise, met our expectations!

Good experience overall

We stayed in a unit with No beachfront view. Beach is just a 30 second walk away though. Property includes lawn chairs, beach towels, has plenty of sand toys for children so no need to rent these. Beach area is great. Unit was slightly smaller than we expected but not a big deal. Our only dissatisfaction really was the balcony was extremely dirty and the bed sheets did not fit properly. Overall I would come back to this property.

Disappointed

We expected the advertised interior picture to be same, however, the furnishings were not. Our understanding we had a "Garden View"..... it was a paved driveway, cottage and a tree.The building was badly in need of an overall facelift, very tired and old.The kitchen was poorly stocked, we had 6 soup spoons, no other sizes, no place mats, no bowls.This unit wasn't adequate for a stay any longer than a few days, definitely not long term due the size, kitchen layout (no counter space, dishwasher or equipment).On the plus side, the bedroom was nicely done, good linens (except for the very worn blanket) and the bathroom was fine.

Cute condo

Overall, it was lovely. We loved the little porch. The bathroom could use some updating. Plus, it could have had a few more supplies such as cleaning wipes or cleaning spray, shower soap or bar soap and aluminum or plastic wrap. There was nothing to clean with except a dish sponge and paper towels. So we had to buy some supplies.

Evolve is horrible host

Would not rent from any listing evolve is involved with. Contacted days before stay to discuss options as hurricaine was predicted to hit the area. Got someone different each time and each time they said they were monitoring the weather. Took many calls and many messages to get any communication even after evacuation was govern for the area. No refund was given by host just a credit for future stay. Would not stay with this host again.

Was beautiful, incredible beach. The colors of the water. Wow. We were lucky enough to see dolphins coming right up to the shore. Actually saw more that day then we did on our site seeing boat cruise. The room was true to the picture. Average but certainly good enough for where it was. Could use some upgrades. The grounds were immaculate. Would definitely consider on a return trip.

Perfect family getaway

This was our favorite part of our vacation in Florida! Communication was great and the condo was exactly as pictured. The walkway to the beach is beautiful and well-kept and literally about a minute walk. The pool is small but clean and our 11 year old loved it. There is a Publix about a 4 minute drive away which was really helpful. Absolutely loved that the condo provided an umbrella and beach toys and chairs…so thoughtful. Perfect beach for picking shells, dolphin sighting, baby turtle sighting, no crowds, has a sleepy beach town feel with plenty to do within driving/biking distance. Book it!

We stayed at the Turtle Crawl Inn condos this week for a Spring Break getaway from NY. The location right on the gorgeous Longboat Key Beach cannot be beat. And the fact that this isn't a high-rise hotel was also a plus, since the people staying here didn't crowd the beach. The villa itself was nice, if not exceptional. There are two queen beds in the bedroom, a small kitchen, a dining area, a den area and a lanai. The TV reception was very bad and there was a teeny stovetop, but overall, it was a good value and a lovely location.

Cute little condo SO close to the beach!

Condo was exactly as pictured. We unfortunately encountered a ton of rain and red tide but we're comfortable in our space playing games and exploring other places. Had it not been red tide, we'd have been out on the beautiful sand that was literally steps away every day. The benefit of this place being run by a company was were able to exchange fresh towels and get extra toilet paper. Biggest con: they were missing a couple basics like salt and pepper. Wonderful place overall.

Relaxing place

We loved this place. The location was great- quiet, private beach with chairs and umbrellas for use. The condo was clean and had everything we needed- even paper towel, trash bags, and dish soap. Beds and couch weren’t the comfiest but besides that our stay was perfect!! Would love to return.
