The Pink Pelican – A Bright Key West-Style Retreat on Longboat Key Professionally Managed by Florida Vacation Connection
Welcome to The Pink Pelican, your dream island getaway on the north end of Longboat Key—just steps from the soft white sand and tucked along a peaceful bayou near Longboat Pass. This vibrant, Key West-style home offers the perfect blend of tropical charm, comfort, and convenience for an unforgettable beach vacation.
Set across from one of the island’s most beautiful and secluded stretches of beach, this three-story retreat features coastal décor, modern furnishings, and thoughtful amenities throughout. You'll enjoy two garages, a private dock for boating or paddleboarding, and a screened-in pool and lanai—ideal for lounging, entertaining, or cooling off in the Florida sunshine.
The main living area on the second floor boasts an open-concept layout with a bright and cheerful kitchen, a breakfast bar for six, a spacious dining area, and a comfortable living room filled with natural light. Two guest bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms are located on this level as well.
Head up to the third floor and discover the private master suite, accessible via a charming spiral staircase or your own private elevator. This spacious sanctuary features a king-sized bed, a luxurious en-suite bath with dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a relaxing garden tub. Step outside to your private sun deck under a pergola—the perfect spot for your morning coffee or sunset cocktail.
Whether you're soaking up the views from one of the balconies, floating in the pool, walking to the beach, or watching wildlife from the dock, The Pink Pelican makes it easy to embrace the laid-back luxury of island life. Dolphins, manatees, and a variety of coastal birds are frequent visitors in this tranquil setting.
Located on Florida’s Gulf Coast just outside Sarasota and an hour south of Tampa, Longboat Key is known for its pristine beaches, fine dining, and relaxed sophistication. You’ll be just minutes from the boutique shops and restaurants of St. Armands Circle, and within easy driving distance of cultural attractions, galleries, live theater, and even theme parks like Busch Gardens (1 hour) and Disney World (2.5 hours).
