Paradise on island
This house was perfect for our small family. The location can’t be beat and the house is adorable.
Perfect place for a special getaway with friends or family ,
Pristine Beach
The property needs some TLC and some updating.
Clean, great views! We loved it here.
NO CLOSETS! HAD TO HANG CLOTHERS IN THE BATHROOM./ INTERNET DID NOT WORK/ NO TV!/ NO DVD/ NO INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL AV EQUIPMENT/ NO INSTRUCTIONS FOR COOK TOP/ TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS SHOULD BE MORE PROMINENTLY DISPLAYED ON LISTING. OTHER THAN THAT THE COTTAGE AND THE BEACH WERE WONDERFUL!
This was our 14th trip to LGI and our 5th time staying at this house. It is a great location, got everything you need. Love the deck. Had a wonderful week! Thank you!
Perfect getaway, with nothing but beach and the gulf, had minor red tide one day when the wind shifted but was perfect the rest of the time. House was small but perfect for a family of four. Cooked on the grill and stove. Had enough food and water for the week. Bought drinking water because of the taste of water on the island. Local Pizza was awesome. Rented a boat for a few days to up and down the intercoastal and out to the gulf. Highly recommend for people that’s just want to get away from it all.
This property is terrific. It is a clean, well furnished cottage with all of the necessary accommodations for a most enjoyable respite. The photos are accurate. It is ON THE BEACH. Sitting on the covered front porch, I was 100 feet from the surf, depending on the tides! I would never want to own this cottage, but I would rent it as often as I could. It is a bucket list experience. Simply put, don't miss the opportunity to rent this cottage and spend some time closer to the ocean than you will ever find elsewhere! This cottage furnished all the comforts necessary to make our stay a truly memorable experience!
Wonderful cottage perfectly situated right on the sand! Well-stocked with everything we needed. Coordinating with the property manager was easy which was greatly appreciated. We’ll definitely be back!
Let me start by saying we made the best out of it! We received a call from LGI golf cart rental while we were on the way saying we wouldn't be able to rent the golf cart and it might be Tuesday before we could get one! We arrived and had to load all of our belongings into a buggy and walk to the house. We get there and find the owner of the house behind us had locked us out, not once but 3 times! We were able to get the cart on Sunday and were told not to drive around the island don't drive through water and he charged us $100 more than the quoted price and less 1 day!! I hit my head 3 times going out to the beach from the low hanging beams under the house, the last time I was knocked to the ground! There is no oven for cooking and no closets! The grill wouldn't work the last night and we had to ask a neighbor if we could grill our hamburgers on the their grill! Never again will I ever rent from Tarpon Rentals!
The property was wonderful- exactly as advertised . The inside has a great beach vibe and is clean and lovely. The location is ideal and so easy to enjoy. I would come back in a heartbeat. The property managers were very responsive to our needs. They brought us better beach chairs when asked and were quick to answer any questions Be aware that you have to get all your groceries ahead of time but there is a grocery store in the same shopping center where you pick up your keys so that is easy. Also make sure you get both a water taxi reservation and a golf taxi reservation on the island when you arrive. There is no way you can carry all your luggage and groceries to the property without it. The dock is on the inter coastal waterway and the property on the gulf side. It’s a quick walk with no luggage. I highly recommend this property!
We thought this was the perfect get away for us. Easy to get to and easy to plan for. Beach and water were gorgeous, and of course, the sun was always shining! We will be back!
Beautiful Location and great decor. Difficult to slide patio door No oven which can make cooking interesting Mattress towels and pillow were brutal Expected a little more but LGI beaches never disappoint!
Our second stay at this property and it was just as amazing as our first. Has everything you need to enjoy the ocean and beach from the deck. Easy, relaxing, quiet vacation.
Calypso Cottage was the perfect place for our getaway! It was exactly as described in the listing and did not disappoint one but. We will definitely be back next year!
