Longboat Key Condos Community Information

There’s a nice mix of housing choices on the island including dozens of condominium communities. Buyers searching for a perfect Gulf front beach residence with panoramic views will have many building options to explore. Some of the most popular buildings will be found clustered behind the gated entry of the Longboat Key Club, while many others will stand on their own throughout the 11 mile span of the island. Most condos will deliver a private beach experience with gated entry, yet the optional membership to the Longboat Key Club offers award-winning tennis, golf, and an abundance of social events.

Whether a buyer is searching for a quieter surrounding in their personal residence, or with an investment condo, we highly recommend this island area of Sarasota!

If more peace and quiet is at the top of the “must have” list, the middle section and northern part of Longboat Key may be a great area to start your search. For convenience, a Publix grocery store is located in Bay Isles (located a couple miles from the south bridge in Longboat Key). Boaters will enjoy the marina membership available in Bay Isles on the east side of the island.
