My husband travels quite a bit for work. We were lucky this time around because we got to follow along!! When he first mentioned that we were going to Longboat Key in Florida, I was worried about what we would do there for so long. I could not have been more wrong in my thinking and this trip ended up being one of my all time favorite trip with Dannica!
We had the beach to ourselves almost every single day!!
Gorgeous beach with crystal clear water!
Clay like soft sand <3
Many of you who follow me on
Instagram have asked me where I took the photo of Dannica playing with the oversized chess pieces on the beach. We stayed at
The Resort at Longboat Keys and they had so many of these adorable play areas for kids. Here are a few photos below:
Dannica had so much fun pushing around and hugging these oversized chess pieces 🙂
Just loved how kid friendly the whole place was!
Yes…she is kissing the knight…
How adorable is this little beach restaurant shack for your toddlers to play in!!
One is the loneliest number…
Sometimes, I wonder what she thinks about…
I think she misses her sister <3
The resort offers everything you could want: golf, tennis, kids’ camp, pool amenities, and beach water sports rentals that range from rafts to kayaks to paddle boards. Their private beach is also so beautiful. I loved the natural landscapes, and the beautiful boardwalks going straight out onto the beach.
Beautiful natural landscapes up and down the beach.
Can’t get enough of this view!!
Just loved this boardwalk to the beach!
Running out to the beach every single day!
Aside from the kid friendly beach and pool area, what I loved most about this resort was how empty the beach was Every. Single. Day. Most of the days we were out on the beach, it was just me and Dannica as far as the eyes could see!! And the two sunsets we were able to see, we only had to share the view with one or two couples who were just strolling by!
Picture perfect sunset every single day.
My favorite time of the day!
The town was also so charming and everyone was so friendly. We loved the family vibes at
Dry Dock restaurant where people literally sail right into the restaurant’s dock, park their boats, grab a bite and then sail back home. We also loved all the restaurants around St. Armand’s Circle, especially Crab and Fin. We can’t wait to go again next year and hopefully they will change their pet policies by then so that we can all come as a family!
Collecting sea shells by the sea shore…
We can’t wait to come back again next year!!
