Additional conveniences include deeded under-building parking and a separate storage unit. Beyond the residence, The Castillian offers the intimate atmosphere of a 60-residence beachfront community, with two buildings overlooking the Gulf. Its beautifully maintained grounds and collection of amenities encourage an easygoing coastal lifestyle. Spend afternoons beside the heated Gulfside swimming pool, unwind in the hot tub or gather with friends at the clubhouse and outdoor grilling area. Tennis, kayak storage and opportunities for walking and biking add to the appeal, while more than 700 feet of beachfront places Longboat Key’s soft sand and sparkling Gulf waters just steps from your front door. The community is pet-friendly, subject to association restrictions.

To the south, St. Armands Circle offers boutique shopping, restaurants and cafés, while Downtown Sarasota is home to acclaimed dining, galleries, theaters, Sarasota Opera, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens and the scenic Bayfront.
