Why winter rates are higher
January through April is peak season on Longboat Key. Snowbirds from up north and from Canada come for warm, dry weather, and those months book first. May through December is quieter, 618 starts at less than half its winter top rate, and the beach, pool and tennis courts are yours with fewer people around.
What is included
- A fully furnished condo with Wi-Fi
- One covered assigned parking space plus guest parking
- Full access to the Bayport private beach, heated pool, four Har-Tru tennis courts, fishing pier, kayak launch, fitness center and clubhouse
Taxes and fees on Longboat Key rentals
Florida and Sarasota County tax rentals of six months or less. That is 7% Florida sales tax plus the 6% Sarasota County Tourist Development Tax, 13% combined, added on top of the rent. Renters also pay a one-time $150 HOA registration fee and a one-time $225 cleaning fee per rental agreement. The tax applies to the rent. Our Longboat Key monthly rental rates never include these, so the totals above are what you actually pay.
Deposit and payment schedule

- 50% of the rent is due 6 months before your stay begins.
- The balance is due 60 days before your stay begins.
