Beachplace 4-505 (3BR) by FGC
This unit was wonderful! It is very comfortable to stay in this condo. Lots of towels and sheets. Kitchen had all the utensils and appliances we needed. Parking is convenient. Pool is heated and probably the best condominium community pool in the area! Sunrise is beautiful from the condo living room!! Sunsets are spectacular from the balcony or, even better, the beach. From this condo door, your toes are touching the sand in 5 minutes. The condo community is very friendly. We enjoyed ourselves so much at this condo that we will be returning. The condo management was easy to work with and very responsive. Definitely a great find!!

“Awesome Service”
Rick was outstanding as our rental agent! At all times he showed professionalism and great attention to detail throughout our tenancy. We have had him for a few weeks years and the quality of his service has been consistent. We would strongly recommend him to any potential tenants. Dan and Cathy W

“Awesome”
This was our 3rd year to stay in BP-3-205 and for us it is one of the best. We have always arrived late at night due to our flight schedule but Rick Benninghove has sent in advance all the information we need from arriving at the 24 hour guard gate to the guard opening the building door to allow us to go to condo. All explained by Rick. Opening the condo door to a spacious 3 bedroom extremely clean and all furniture well maintained. Comfortable beds and all nice size rooms. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking including good grills and a Blackstone. The Beachplace grounds are awesome …well trimmed and maintained. A beautiful view from the balcony with a side view of the Gulf. The pool is the best ever with lanes for swimming laps, covered kids pool and adult hot tub. All very clean and managed. The Clubhouse is another plus with a really good fitness center. All very short walk to both beach and pool with umbrellas and chairs on the beach for you. Especially nice not to carry them to the beach. Just walk or sit and watch all the dolphins playing in front of you. We have always booked thru Rick and we know if there is a question or problem, he answers promptly and takes care of it. A person who takes care of you.

“lovely condo”
I spend a month at the above condo and I was very pleased with the overall experience. Very convenient to everything and has a beautiful view to the Gulf. It is comfortable and equipped with all I needed. Rick was very helpful in keeping me updated if there was something of importance that I needed to know. I certainly recommend reaching out to him for your Florida Vacation

“Recommend”
We have rented from Florida Gulf Coast Vacation Rentals for the past two years and Rick has been very responsive, positive and extremely helpful when needed, which has not been that often! We would highly recommend using his organization for rentals.

“A special home in the perfect beach location!”
We stayed here in August and September 2024 and absolutely adored this home. From the moment we arrived, it felt welcoming, comfortable, and like the perfect beach getaway. The home is beautifully decorated with plenty of charm, yet spacious enough for everyone to spread out and relax. Everything was exceptionally clean, well maintained, and clearly cared for. One of our favorite features is the location. St. Armands Circle is just a block away, making it easy to walk to dinner, browse the shops, or grab a treat. There are so many wonderful restaurants nearby, and we felt completely comfortable letting the kids walk over for ice cream—which they loved. Having so much within walking distance made our stay feel effortless and relaxed. The beach is only a short walk away and absolutely stunning. Between the beach and the pool, our kids were in heaven! When we wanted to explore farther, downtown Sarasota was just a quick trip across the bridge. What we loved most was how quickly the home made us feel at ease. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in, unwind, and simply enjoy time together. Our stay exceeded our expectations, and we left with wonderful family memories. We can’t wait to return!

“Perfect vacation”
We had a great month at Beachpace and loved 3-304. Sitting on the balcony and enjoying watching the Gulf of Mexico. Wonderful to go to the beach and have everything already set up for you. Loved this condo. Amazingly clean and had everything I needed. Thank you Florida Gulf Coast for a wonderful stay.
