Vacation at the Hilton Longboat Key Resort and you might extend your stay. Relax and take in a visit by a local pod of bottled-nosed dolphins, read a book in a beach cabana or a chair under a Banyan tree or watch the shore birds wade near the resort. If activity is more your style you might want to stay longer to take advantage of all the Hilton has to offer. Fish, sail, swim in the Gulf, rent a kayak, Waverunner or bike on property and explore local waters and the rest of the barrier island. You can even take your dog for a walk, as well mannered pets can join you at the Hilton for a small one time fee. Finish the day with a meal in one of the resort's lounges or restaurants or enjoy a quiet evening in one of 102 well appointed luxurious guest rooms. The property has wireless Internet and a business center should you not quite be able to leave the work world behind.
