Fall asleep to the sound of waves and wake to endless Gulf views.

Perched directly on the beach on Little Gasparilla Island, Wasi Mati LGI was thoughtfully designed for guests who want more than just a vacation rental. Here, you'll find the comfort of a luxury stay, the tranquility of a quiet island, and front-row seats to some of the most beautiful sunsets on Florida's Gulf Coast.

Spend your days shelling, fishing, paddleboarding, searching for dolphins and manatees, or simplyenjoying long walks on a beach that often feels nearly deserted. In the evenings, watch the sun sink into the Gulf from one of your three private lanais while the sound of the waves becomes the soundtrack to your stay.

Little Gasparilla Island is one of Florida's few remaining bridgeless barrier islands. There are no cars, stores, traffic lights, high-rises, or crowds—just miles of uncrowded beach, sandy paths, abundant wildlife, and a slower pace of life that feels increasingly rare.

Unlike many island rentals, your stay includes secure gated mainland parking, passenger ferry service, a heated freshwater pool, and on-island trash pickup—allowing you to focus on relaxing rather than logistics.

And wherever you are, the Gulf is always in view. Both primary suites, the living spaces, and even both showers offer uninterrupted water views that keep you connected to the beach throughout your stay.

If you're seeking an elevated, private, and hassle-free island experience, you've just found your new home away from home.

    We absolutely loved our stay! This is the perfect combination of beach access, pool access, privacy, and nature. The home is beautifully, clean, and very well appointed -- you'll feel just like you're at home. We forgot a few things and appreciated a few extra toiletries provided. The laundry is a bonus as well so you can pack light and wash clothing as needed. From watching dolphins, manatees, birds, turtles, lizards to beach combing for shark's teeth and sand dollars, this spot in SWFL has it all. Perfection! We also appreciated the very clear communication from the host so we knew exactly what to expect, and when! Best communication from a host thus far. You won't regret booking this spot, it's A

    Everything was as described. The host, Kristin, was more than accommodating. She even saved our dinner one night by dropping off some things we forgot. If you’re looking for somewhere to just relax, this is the place. Just note, there is some planning ahead involved due to the ferry. All in all, we would definitely stay again.

    Beautiful condo—spotless, modern, and fully stocked with everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. It truly felt like a home away from home. The bedding was soft, the towels were great quality, and the living space was cozy and inviting. LGI is always a wonderful getaway, and having a relaxing place to stay makes all the difference—this condo did not disappoint.That said, there are a few things to be aware of that are outside the homeowner’s control, mostly due to recent hurricane impacts. If you’ve stayed on the island before, you know getting there isn’t always easy, and this trip was a bit more complicated than usual. Guests at the condo currently aren’t allowed to use golf carts, and the walk from the dock to the unit is pretty long. We ended up paying 120 to some locals to help haul our luggage and groceries, since carts weren’t allowed either.Additionally, the boardwalk to the beach is under repair, which means walking through the sand dunes instead of using the usual wooden path—definitely more effort to get to the beach.All in all, I’d absolutely rent this condo again. The comfort, style, and views make it worth it. While there are a few current inconveniences from hurricane recovery, the property itself is fantastic. We saw some signs of progress around the area, though it looks like it may take some time. Still, the stay was well worth it.

    We’ve being going to LGI since I was a kid back in 2003 and now I’m going with my kids. It has become a family tradition and Wasi Mati was the best condo we’ve stayed in on the island. Recently remodeled, it is immaculate. We cannot wait to go back! The only complaints are out of the owners hands honestly and those are:Make sure you bring bug spray or the mosquitos will be a nuisance even more than usual. Pack as little as you can get away with. There are no more carts to help you lug your things from the ferry to the condo so it can get tiring (and very sweaty). Other than that, it’s a 10/10 stay and experience. I miss it already :(

    Wow! The island was beautiful and peaceful. The views from the condo were breathtaking! Everyone enjoyed and looked forward to the sunsets. Not a single store on the island, no roads or traffic, and even with storm repairs happening it was still quiet and disconnected from the busy world. Our boys loved snorkeling for conks and sand dollars, picking up shells on the beach, fishing, and playing in the sand. It felt like we had the entire beach to ourselves! The locals!!! I cannot say enough about how absolutely amazing the locals were. Some of the nicest people we’ve ever met on a vacation. EVERYONE treated each other with such kindness and respect! Our captain and his wife were so great, they felt like family. The only cons of this trip were things that will only take time to fix and everyone was working hard to restore!

    We couldn’t have been happier with the condo and the owner. We arrived just as tropical storm Debby was forming. Kristin worked with us and was even willing to change our dates to accommodate. Then we got to the island and the listing didn’t do it justice. My family started this was the nicest place we’d ever stayed at. My son and son in law really enjoyed the beach and then fishing in the harbor. It was exactly what I wanted to celebrate my birthday. The place really is paradise.

    This is a perfect spot on LGI! The ferry allows access without a boat. The unit is beachfront and those sunsets are the best! The pathway makes it easy to get from ferry to condo to beach. Unit had all the items and extra. Even beach towels available. Unit was beautiful, clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.

    Spent all our time on the beach and in the bluest water in Florida! The unit was more than what I expected! Faced the beach and was less than a 3 minute walk to the sand. Ferry was easy and organized! Ferry to the unit less than 5 minutes. Can’t wait to go back!!!!

    This was a wonderful vacation place for my family. I was with my adult kids and toddler grandson. LGI has been one of our most favorite places for 16 years. This is the first time we’ve stayed at Kristen‘s condo. Everything was so clean, spacious and luxurious with plenty of room for six people. From start to finish, Kristen was very helpful and accommodating for our family. She provided excellent pre-trip information and responded very quickly to any questions we had during our stay. She even allowed us a late check-out since the condo wasn’t being rented again the same day. I would definitely recommend Kristen‘s condo on LGI for anyone looking for the perfect getaway!

    This is a perfect beach family getaway. We saw all of our favorite things on LGI- osprey, dolphins, manatees and Tortoise. The Condo was perfect and you couldn’t beat ocean views.

    The unit was clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Location was great proximity to the beach, pool and short walk to the ferry, which was important to us with a 2 year old in tow. Everyone on the island is friendly and engaging. The ferry captains are all great guys, very professional. Perfect vacation!
