My boyfriend and I recently stayed at the Turtle Crawl Inn for 10 days in unit # 62. This unit has been completely painted, the kitchen remodeled, and a new king size bed with beautiful new bedding. This unit also adjoins with unit # 61 and would be perfect for a family or 2 couples. The whole complex is very quaint and it was just a few short steps to the beach. The beach is beautiful, but there's also a nice pool. Longboat Key is very laid back and in a perfect location to access St Armand's Circle, Sarasota, and Anna Maria Island.

I would recommend Turtle Crawl to anyone who is looking for a nice relaxing vacation. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.

Unit #504 - relaxing, lovely, clean, comfortable beds, fabulous beach, flat screen tv (dvd player included), new air conditioner, nice furniture, views from two sides of the corner unit (postcard like), enjoyable, great shops close, fabulous restaurants in both directions, ocean water outstanding. We saw dolphins and a mantee from the balcony! Best unit in the building. We go every year. Very affordable for directly on the beach! Sunsets are the best! Always clean towels in room. Close to groc store. Great fishing. Always ask for this unit.

We just finished a relaxing three day stay at Turtle Crawl inn. It was lovely. We stayed in unit 503 and it was very nice and clean. The beds were comfortable. The beach was fabulous. This was a very quiet place, so don't expect great nightlife. It was perfect for a relaxing getaway. We found this place online, but did not book it. We drove there and got a much better deal in person with Angel. I would stay there again in a minute! The Dry Dock was by far the best place to eat for dinner. The Blue Dolphin was great for breakfast but you could share the meal and have plenty to eat! Enjoy your stay!

My friend and I have stayed at the inn several times through the years. Each unit is privately owned. If you get a well maintained unit your stay will be lovely. We had been very satisfied in the past. This year I had a horrible experience. We stayed in unit 202.. The unit was extremely damp and as the days progressed I became very sick. I discovered black mold on the air conditioning vent above my bed. My friend checked the filter and it was disgusting. The next day we went to the office and Angel moved us to another room. I had to go to the doctor and was given an inhaler, antibiotics, Allegra and a decongestant. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. The unit we were moved to was very nice and well maintained.

My recommendation is to avoid unit 202. Before unpacking, check the air conditioning filters and check for mold.
