360* Views at "LGI Paradise" ~ Screened Porch w/ Hot Tub, 6P Golf Cart included

*Golf Cart Always Included! (Usually 6 Passenger)*

LGI is the best-kept secret in SW Florida, maybe in the country! Little Gasparilla Island is very peacefully removed from the hustle and bustle of Florida. Enjoy over 7 miles of white, sandy beach that is essentially a private for you and your family. The home has EVERYTHING you need for your dream vacation with family.

There is no bridge to the island, and NO cars are allowed- only golf carts! Come to the island with your own boat or take the water taxi to our community dock.

** GROUND LEVEL **
As you walk up to the house, you will be greeted with a sprawling open deck that is completely covered, underneath the home.

- Outdoor Kitchen: Fully equipped with mini fridge (full fridge right next to kitchen in the shed), the grill is an advanced gas-briquet-ceramic convection range and is covered

- Seating Area and Outdoor Showers: Relax in the hammock or seating area, outside but out of the sun. Full shower after a full day at the beach, also a little foot shower for getting the sand off before heading in.
- More: Basketball hoop, shed with beach gear like umbrellas, 8 chairs, skimboards and toys.
- Elevator: Skip the stairs and go up the elevator into the Main level into the house! Very convenient for your bags, groceries, and after a long, hard day at the beach.

The house has 5 bedrooms:
BR 1: One King Bed "Upper Master"
BR 2: One Queen Bed "Lower Master"
BR 3: One Queen Bed
BR 4: Two Bunk Beds (4 Twins)
BR 5: Office with Daybed + Trundle (2 Twins)

** MAIN LEVEL **

- Entrance: As you walk in you are greeted into a spacious, open concept living-dining-kitchen space. Wet bar and stairs to the Upper Level to your right.

- Living Room: Open and airy with a large sectional, fireplace and Roku Smart TV. This is a cozy and tastefully updated space to gather, enjoy one of the many games provided, and have family movie night.

- Kitchen: Fully equipped and stocked kitchen with commercial-grade appliances. Traditional drip coffee, and Keurig. Large island with bar top seating. Kitchen sink and wet bar both have reverse osmosis drinking water faucets.

- Dining Area: Dining table that seats 8, and the bar top that seats 5. Plenty of seating for everyone to enjoy drinks and meals.

- Screened In Deck: Hot Tub, Seating Area, and Dining Table. This deck wraps around the entire Main level of the home.

- Bedrooms on Main level:
1) Queen bed, dresser, walk-in closet, Ensuite full bathroom with tiled shower, smart TV.
2) Queen bed, dresser, closet.
3) Two bunk beds (Sleeps 4), kid’s toy bench, closet

The hallway full bathroom is central to these 3 bedrooms, the elevator, and the laundry room.

** MASTER SUITE / SECOND LEVEL **
Up a set of stairs from the main level is the Master Suite.

- Office: Next to the Master Bedroom is an office for those looking to get some work done. There is also a nice Daybed, with trundle for overflow sleeping for 2 in this room.

- Master Bedroom: With a separate temperature control, this master bedroom is all newly furnished with Tommy Bahama. Walk-in closet. A large double vanity, walk-in shower with bench seat, separate jetted bathtub with window, and behind another door is the toilet and traditional bidet.

- Master Deck and Eagle’s Perch: Walk out of the Master bedroom onto the 3rd deck of the home, with another seating area. Go up to the Eagle’s Perch and enjoy one of the highest perches on the island, 360* views overlooking the Gulf of Mexico with an unobstructed view of the sunset.

** THE ISLAND **
- Boat Dock: We have a community dock on the bay side, #82, that always has room. You can leave your boat docked or have the water taxi drop you off there. There are carts to transport your things from the dock down the path to the house. There is also an on-island taxi service with our friend Bret!

- Beach: 7 miles of untouched, beautiful sandy beaches and only the people staying on the island (nearly private!). Many guests find shark teeth and sand dollars easily. You can easily walk to our beach access point.

- Golf Cart: With your rental comes a 4 or 6 person electric golf cart to explore the island and bring your things to the beach.

- Groceries: There is a grocery delivery service that will shop and deliver items into our fridge ahead of your stay! If you choose to bring groceries yourself, there is a Publix right up the road from the marina.

- Restaurants: There are NO restaurants on the island. There is however a local who makes brick-oven pizzas to order and will deliver (via golf cart!). There are many restaurants on Boca Grande, the island just to the south. You can boat there or drive just 5-10 minutes from the marina to many great dining options.

No pets (any size) allowed- thank you for understanding.

Please note we do take a $700 security deposit hold that is automatically released after your stay for all reservations.

Great Stay! Great Hosts!
Jason was an amazing host, they are very quick responding and helping with anything you need. The house is amazing, big, super clean and supplied with anything you need including a hot tub, golf cart, grill and beach goodies! Absolutely lovely. Quick notes for guests: There is no vehicle access to the island so be prepared to grab a water taxi and take few personal belongings! Buy food and book your water taxi with a week prior of anticipation, and you’ll be ready to enjoy this paradise! Amazing stay, amazing home and amazing hosts!

We could not have been happier with our stay on Little Gasparilla. The home was very clean, warm, and welcoming, stocked with basic necessities. Perfect for a family with varying ages.

Remote Getaway
We had more than enough space in this beautiful home on LGI. The hosts were very responsive, and they helped us immediately upon a minor golf cart flat tire. Overall we had a great weekend and would come back! Note that this location is VERY remote, one you are on the island you are there until you leave with a boat (hence the reason of our summer camp themed weekend on the island). It was wonderful to unplug and enjoy time with family.

Beautiful Spacious Property in Great Location
We had a group of 6 adults at the property. The house was very well appointed and just as advertised. The location is convenient to both the beach access and the community dock. This is a wonderful property and would highlight recommend it. Communication with the property management team was perfect and I had every bit of information I needed before having to ask. All around this was a great rental experience.

Noticed ants in the kitchen area, where things wasn’t cleaned up from previous customers. Also hot tub was so green and Dirty, I treated with chemicals and had it back running and looking right before we left. Also golf cart showed lots of aged and broke halfway thru the trip. So this meant we didn’t have any transportation down to the dock to water taxi over with a weeks worth of luggage to haul. With all that being said… The trip was more work, than relaxing.

Wonderful house and location. Plenty of room of space for our group of 10.
LGI is old Florida living with all the modern amenities you need. We had two families with kids from 2 to 19 and everyone had an amazing time. We appreciated the kids toys, Wi-Fi and hot tub but spent most of our time exploring the waterways and finding shark’s teeth on the beach. I recommend a second golf cart for large groups. Unfortunately we could not get a call back from the rental place so call right away and often. House was clean and spacious. We did not want to leave this peaceful retreat.

We had a wonderful time staying at this property! The house was well equipped and had all the necessities you would need to help you feel at home. It has several outdoor areas you can choose from to have quiet time and enjoy the beautiful views. The screened in porch was a plus, especially at night. We loved that this property had an elevator, which helped get all luggage and foods up to the second floor easily and quickly. The owners were always available to answer any questions or concerns. We are looking forward to staying at this property again in the future.

Beautiful spacious home with everything you need. Simply bring your groceries and clothes and the home has everything else. Owner is very responsive and great to communicate with. We have a 29’ boat and had no problem docking it. There were games for the kids to play and a puzzle. Hot tub was amazing and on a screened porch so we could enjoy it at night.

We had the most amazing week at LGI for Easter. The house was more than perfect! So spacious, clean and fully equipped. We enjoyed dinners and morning coffee on the screened in porch and sunset cocktails on the rooftop terrace! Jason was so quick to respond to all our questions and helped us get an extra golf cart. The house comes with one but we had a large group so we appreciated having another one. The weather was picture perfect and the ocean looked like a swimming pool. We rented a boat and got to cruise around to other islands. You’re surrounded by nature and wildlife and the friendliest people around. We will definitely be back!!

Great property - location perfect and house like new
We had a great time with 3 families for Spring break with our high school kids. We brought our own boat. Dock was in great condition and not a long walk from the docs to the house. Beach is also a short walk in the opposite direction. The house is stunning, like brand new. This is not a worn out rental like a lot of rental houses. It was recently a residence so everything was like new with great appliances, HVAC, and just very clean. It was also nice having the elevator for getting luggage and groceries into the house easily during our stay. We would definitely come again.

We had a great time staying at this house for spring break. The house has everything you may need to enjoy your stay. All beach equipment, cooking equipment and trash removal are included. The bar has a stand alone ice maker which came in handy to pack coolers and refill drinks. Make sure to catch the sunsets on the top deck. They are spectacular! The kids had a lot of fun at the lower level deck playing basketball and running around. The house also had toys they could use to play. There is also a free library at the end of the street and it had adult and children’s books. Jason the property manager was quick to reply with any questions we had. We had so much fun we all want to come back soon.
