We held our annual convention at the LBKC in April. From start to finish the event was top notch. Our rooms were very well appointed and very clean; the food is overpriced but St. Armands Circle is nearby so you have many other options available. As some of the other reviewers noted, we also had a couple of problems with... More

We just returned from a getaway weekend with my husband and our 3 year old son. We stayed in a 2 BR Deluxe on the gulf. The PROS: The rooms were huge, kitchen was large and the balcony was huge. Lots of closet space too. Everyone on the resort was extremely friendly. I looooooved their service - everyone said hello... More

I really wanted to LOVE this resort as we carefully planned our 25th anniversary, birthday & Mother's Day trip here. If I had read the reviews here first about it being old & tired, loud ac unit, worn out light fixtures, and some snotty staff I would have thought twice about it. The HVAC units are so old and LOUD!... More

Trying to make the most of a quick weekend with family while my husband was at a business meeting, we stayed 2 nights at the Longboat Key Club in a 2 bedroom suite with my son and his 3 children. Everything was close to perfect! At close to $500 a night, it was not exceptionally high considering the expanse of... More

I stayed at the Longboat Key Club & Resort in May 2012 and was very impressed by the place. Unfortunately I had to spend much of my time in the conference room, but I did get to experience a bit of the resort in my spare time. I stayed in a nice suite in building 6 which had a great... More

We stayed for 4 nights in late April. We were fortunate enough to be able to treat ourselves to a club suite gulf view using our AAA discount. So worth it! Front desk staff were pleasant at check-in and helped us to our room. We were in building 4, 4th floor. Room was updated/contemporary and clean. More than enough room... More

Wedding ceremony was nice, but the staff here treated the guests poorly. There was no place for the groomsmen to get prepared, drinks never made it to the room where they were supposed to go, staff was incredibly rude and snobby to the wedding guests in the Lounge/bar area. The reception was: staff didn't crack a smile or say anything,... More

We were here for 4 nights in early April with two of our kids, 8 and 5. We stayed in a building with a lagoon view and it was fine and not a far walk to the pool/beach and restaurants. We were on the bottom floor and did not ever hear the guests next door or above, which was nice.... More

Great location on the beach with amazing views. The place needs a face lift, very dated and showing numerous signs of wear and tear. Rooms were large and clean, all the bi-fold closet doors were hanging off the track, noisy air conditioners. Rotting outside light fixtures around pool and stained mats for the chairs Room was not ready at check... More
