We enjoyed our stay at the Diplomat resort. The units are directly on the beach with beautiful views of the ocean and sunset. Our 2nd. floor effeciency unit was affordable, clean, well furnished and close to resturants / shopping ... WE WILL RETURN.

It was really small & no seperation of the kitchen are to the bed.The PROS: Best thing I could say about this place is Clean & Great AC that kept the room cold. Nice view of the beach out your window & chairs outside your door to sit on & watch the waves.
CONS: Taking Blue Apartments..NOT RESORT..No new appliances here. An Old TV ...

This is a fantastic and relaxing accomodation. We usually stay in Unit 246, it has been recently updated, completley tiled and is very clean. This unit has a new, large picture window overlooking the gulf and beach. You can hear the waves and view the beautiful sunsets out of the big picture window. The Diplomat Resort complex is located directley on the beach and close to the Publix shopping center.

We have stayed at The Diplomat many times. The rooms are spacious, clean, and right on the beach. Run in and out of your condo all day long for popsicles, sunscreen, etc... It's also convenient to shopping and restaurants. Our kids want to go back year after year.

I agree with the other reviewers that the location with sugar sand beach, sunset, close to St. Armand's Circle for shopping cannot be beat - especially at this price (moderate for exclusive, relaxing Longboat Key). Your back door is literally on the beach, which is unique on Longboat Key. What is special, however, is unit 239: first floor, end ...

This is an absolutely fantastic place. Each unit is individually owned and decorated and most are kept up to date. We usually stay in Unit 244, it is very clean and stylish. The location of this complex on the island is almost exactly in the middle. The beaches here are gorgeous, and what really makes the Diplomat unique is the fact it is one ...
