Longboat Key is one road, twelve miles long, with the Gulf on one side and the bay on the other, and the resort at the south end where most of our deliveries go. This is how the car arrives on the key, what to book for a Longboat week, and the 2026 rates.
Delivery on Longboat Key
We deliver to the valet at the Resort at Longboat Key Club, to the Zota Beach Resort, and to the condos and houses along Gulf of Mexico Drive. The handover is ten minutes at the door; the resort valets handle the low cars daily and we brief them on the nose lift. SRQ is twenty-five minutes away over the Ringling Causeway and we deliver curbside there with the flight tracked, so the car can meet you at the airport and go home from the key, or the reverse.
Twelve miles of one road
Gulf of Mexico Drive runs from the New Pass bridge at the St. Armands end to the Longboat Pass bridge at Anna Maria, 35 to 45 mph the whole way. It is not a driving road; it is a roof-down road, which is why the Porsche 911 Targa 4S at $799 is the car we deliver most here. South over New Pass is St. Armands Circle for dinner and the Ringling Causeway into downtown; north over Longboat Pass is Anna Maria Island. The driving roads are on the mainland: Casey Key, Manasota Key and the Skyway.

What to book for a Longboat week
A couple: the Targa, or the Ferrari Roma at $1,195 if the week includes a long drive down to Manasota. A family: the Lamborghini Urus at $999 or the BMW X5 M60i at $449, both with a trunk for the beach. An arrival at the resort: the Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 chauffeured from SRQ. And for the one evening on St. Armands that needs the photo, the Huracán EVO Spyder for a day.
Requirements
You must be 21 or older with a valid driver's licence, proof of full-coverage insurance that extends to a vehicle of this value, and a major credit card in your own name. International licences are accepted with a passport. A refundable security hold is placed on the card at handover and released after the car is returned and inspected; the figure depends on the car and is confirmed in writing before you pay anything.
