Family friendly
We loved having the house right on the beach and the pool was right out our enclosed patio. Kids could come and go and we all felt safe. Groceries were just a few minutes down the road. Lots of restaurants to choose from. The beach was not busy at all. Seemed private most of the time which was crazy because it was spring break week for a lot of people. If we go to Florida again this will be the spot that I'd want to come too again! We played shuffle board and putti putting as a family!

Perfect Beach Spot!
I was looking for a beachfront property for my sister and her family (husband and 3 kids under 6) and me. I had a wedding to attend at the St. Regis and this spot couldn't have been a better location! It was right by the pool and just steps from the beach. The online pictures just don't do it justice! It was a perfect spot for us all to gather and I will definitely recommend it to others. Thank you!

It was very comfortable for two couples. We loved the screened in porch and the covered area with the grills close to the beach. The proximity to the beach was amazing. Only negative was the dripping faucet in the bathroom shower.

A great place on the beach
If you are looking for a comfortable villa that is steps away from the beach, this is a great location. The villa is part of a larger complex, so the pool pictured in the listing is a shared pool (just outside the living room and dining area of this villa), but they do have "quiet hours" so it isn't too noisy late into the night. The kitchen was decently equipped, but it is a "galley" kitchen, so its tight to have more than one person in there at at time. However, if you don't plan to cook much, you will be fine, as there's plenty of local restaurants to enjoy. It was nice that this villa had its own screened in porch (overlooking the pool), and then you walk through the pool area and grill/shelter down by the sand dunes, to get to the beach, and this grill/shelter is a shared space. It was nice that this villa is part of the Turtle Crawl Inn, as that meant there were beach chairs available to use, as well as outdoor showers by the pool to rinse off after being in the water/sand. The beds were comfortable and the Inn provides pool towels in addition to the bathroom towels provided, which is great if you don't have room to pack towels. While you are steps away from the beach, this villa does not have a direct view of the water, so if you're planning on waking up and looking out on the water, this may not be the place for you. The building itself is a little dated, but the interior decor is nice. You can tell this was a place on the island from back in the day.

Simply the best!!!
This was the most incredible stay!!! We had booked a few villas and condos on property and reserved this one special for my brother and sister in law to enjoy, while my parents hosted their kids nearby. We were next door in another villa and very jealous, since this was most amazing place in Florida!! Beautifully decorated, 4* type accommodations. My aunt was also in same owners 101, and was first trip in 40 years of knowing her that she had zero complaints (and that includes many ritz Carltons, four seasons, and every fancy resort in world). The owner his spectacular host- checks in to see what you need, goes above and beyond and just amazing all around. The resort is lovely- directly on beach, so many options for both young and old- great location. The villa itself is the star it’s like staying in 4 million beachfront. Everything you would need and right next to pool also. Can’t wait to come back next year (I even hesitated to review since I hope no one takes our dates before I get a chance to book), but would have been remiss to not share how incredible Zilli villa and the options are!!!

The villa was really cute, but very outdated. It did have everything we needed for our stay. There were not all stainless steel appliances, nor was there a griddle. Somethings were falling apart, such as the shower/ tub in the Master Bathroom. The place was cleaned up, but there was a lot of areas they didn’t dust and it was dirty in those areas as well. No information was given about check-in and on the day of check-in, I had to reach out. Owner will respond to messages, but expect a delay. The location was great. We loved the access to the pool, beach, grill, and outdoor eating areas.

Turtle Crawl
This was our 2nd year at the Turtle Crawl Inn and we had a wonderful time. We were ready to rebook 2 properties for next year and then found out that they had already rented our unit for one of our weeks next year out from under us. It was a simple mistake that could have been resolved amicably, but instead we were lied to. It really broke our hearts as our family has really enjoyed this property and were looking to be able to return for many years to come.

Peaceful and private condo!
Our family of 5 stayed for three nights in March 2022. This condo is part of the Turtle Crawl Inn resort, so you check in and out at the hotel desk. The owner didn't respond to communications via VRBO, so if you have questions, it might be best to contact the hotel directly. The unit is as pictured, completely detached from any other units. The building itself is older, but has been maintained and the interior has been remodeled recently. The unit is well furnished, kitchen is well stocked, furniture and beds are comfortable. Cable and wifi was good. We loved having the pool right outside our unit, and the pool was heated very comfortably. Note that the pool is closed from dusk to dawn. The hotel only has a few units, so our family was the only ones in the pool area when we were using it. Also note that you can't *see* the shoreline from the condo, as there's a burm/dune straight in front of the unit. But a few steps past the pool and grilling area, and you're staring at the beautiful ocean waves. The beach area is wonderful. The provided beach chairs are great, and the beach is quiet and not busy at all. As others have mentioned, you'll have to drive to get food on Longboat Key - the only thing within walking distance is a nice community park. There's lots of activities in the area, only a short drive away. We drove up to Anna Maria Island and rented jet Skis, and down to Lido Key for some snorkeling and a dinner cruise. Overall, we loved our stay at this condo, and would highly recommend it for families looking for a quiet retreat. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!

Could use a little TLC
This is the second year we stayed at this property, and honestly we hope to stay again next year. The rental is nice, but definitely could use some TLC. Most are easy fixes but exposed (uncovered) electrical outlets in the lanai could pose both a fire hazard as well as a physical hazard. We gave a list of seven items that need attention to the property manager at Turtle Crawl, who said she would pass the list on to the owner. One confusing item was check out time - VRBO has the check out time at 11, but the paperwork given by the property manager when you check in has the check out time as 10. Not a big deal, just needs clarification.

We stayed over Christmas break, and had a good time. The ad didn’t state but the property is part of a small resort which worked out fine. There is on site staff and a on site laundry. The community pool is open day light hours only so noise wasn’t a issue. We used the community grills several times and had no issue with availability.

Perfect location and plenty of room.
Overall, a great stay. Pool is right outside screened lanai but closed at dusk so no problems with noise. We spent most of our time out on the beach which is just past the pool area. Easy to come on and off the beach for snacks, drinks, or a reprieve from the sun.
Perfect for two couples.
