Summary:brCome enjoy the serenity of Seahorse Hideaway! Leave your car and your cares at the marina because Little Gasparilla is accessible only by water taxi! Our beaches are uncrowded and tourists and traffic are just a mainland memory. If you are looking for a quiet tropical island to relax and unplug, Little Gasparilla is your dream vacation spot. Our nightlife consists of giant sea turtles laying their eggs -- our only bar is the sand bar where you can find sand dollars and shells!brbrThe Space:brPlease note that Little Gasparilla Island is a barrier island accessible only by boat; we provide water taxi information when you book. You cannot drive your vehicle to the island; you park at the marina on the mainland where you catch the water taxi. There are no stores, bars or restaurants on Little Gasparilla which means it has retained much of its old Florida ambiance and pristine beauty. For years Little Gasparilla was visited only by locals who would come on weekends to fish, go to the beach and enjoy the privacy, peace and quiet. Now, even though it has been discovered, the lack of commercial establishments means that the island appeals to those who want to get away from crowds, tourists, traffic and technology. brbrThe Sea Horse Hideaway is a lovingly cared for home that has been in the same family since it was built in the 70s. Enjoy the home that features 2 bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with two twins. One of the nicest features is a comfortable screened porch that extends the full width of the home, allowing you to dine on the porch, watch the neighbors go by on their golf carts and enjoy the nightly sunset procession to the beach!brbrThe home is a one-minute walk from the dock (Dock 26) and about a two-minute walk from the beach, so you are close to your boat (if you choose to bring one) and the beautiful pristine beaches of Little Gasparilla.brbrThe kitchen is well-stocked with all appliances and pots and pans and everything you need for your stay, be it a long weekend or a full month. The home also has a flatscreen TV, and is stocked with beach chairs, beach towels, an umbrella, a washer and dryer and a brand new grill.brbrWifi- not available. You must hotspot from your cellular provider (cell reception is good)brbrPet Policy - pet-friendly with $100 non-refundable fee (per pet). Some breeds may be excluded due to insurance restrictions.brbrMinimum Renter Age - 25brbrBoat Slip - included on dock 26 (this is also where the water taxi drops you off)brbrDamage Protection - The $59 charge listed as a management fee on your quote covers your purchase of $2500 of “all risk” damage protection coverage on your rental property. This protection is purchased in lieu of a cash damage deposit. Coverage details are spelled out in your contract.brbrComplimentary Concierge- will meet you at the dock with a golf cart to assist with transporting your luggage and groceries to the homebrbrSatellite TV - yesbrbrGrill Type - charcoalbrbrCoffee- drip (filters provided)brbrParking - $8/night ($10/night if you have a boat trailer) at Eldred's Marina where you meet the boat taxibrbrINTERNET: Most people just opt to use the mobile hotspots on their smartphones, especially if they have unlimited data or a large data plan. Cell service is excellent and that is the most convenient option. We usually suggest that people download books and movies to their tablets or e-readers BEFORE coming to the island.brbrGuest Access:brYou have the entire house to yourselves PLUS access to Florida's most beautiful beach! You also have access to a dock slip if you wish to rent a kayak or a boat.brbrThe Neighborhood:brPlease note that Little Gasparilla Island is a barrier island with no bridge. You cannot drive to the island. All access is via water taxi. There are no stores or restaurants on the island. This remoteness is part of what makes the island so unique, but keep in mind that access is not a simple matter of driving to the island and parking your car...you drive to a marina on the mainland, park your car, catch the water taxi with all your luggage and groceries, and the taxi drops you at our dock, where our concierge can meet you with his golf cart. It requires a bit of an adventurous spirit!brbrOther Things to Note:brPlease evaluate your expectations before booking a stay on Little Gasparilla Island. If you are expecting a polished resort atmosphere, Little Gasparilla is decidedly more rustic. During periods of heavy rain or tropical storms, there may be standing water on the roadways, at the dock and around the house. This is a tropical environment with mosquitos, rust, power outages and other minor inconveniences. If you are expecting resort amenities and services, the island might not be for you.brbrHOLIDAY RATES: Please note that all there will be holiday rates applied to quotes for Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. brbrPLEASE NOTE: We do require that two members of each group must be over 25 years of age. We apologize, but we can NOT rent to college groups as a courtesy to the homeowners and our island neighbors. Guests will be evicted if found not to meet age requirements upon check in. Additionally, we can not exceed capacity in island homes due to the fragile septic systems.brbrInteraction with Guests:brWe have a home on the island, and another home on the mainland 10 minutes away. We value your privacy so we will not bother you or be intrusive, but we can get to the home quickly if you have issues. Our housekeeper lives on the island 10 minutes away and we have a local handyman that we can send out if there are maintenance issues. Please note, however, that the handyman is subject to the same problems getting to the island that you were. If something breaks after 4 PM chances are almost 100% that it will not be repaired until the following day. This is a remote barrier island and our mantra is go with the flow.

Summary:brbrSunny Daze is a beautiful beachfront AND bayfront property on Little Gasparilla Island. The island is only accessible by boat or the water taxi so you don't have the typical Florida crowds.brbrbrbrThe Space:brbrPlease note that Little Gasparilla Island is a barrier island accessible only by boat; we provide water taxi information when you book. You cannot drive your vehicle to the island; you park at the marina on the mainland where you catch the water taxi. There are no stores, bars or restaurants on Little Gasparilla which means it has retained much of its old Florida ambiance and pristine beauty. For years Little Gasparilla was visited only by locals who would come on weekends to fish, go to the beach and enjoy the privacy, peace and quiet. Now, even though it has been discovered, the lack of commercial establishments means that the island appeals to those who want to get away from crowds, tourists, traffic and technology. brbrbrbrSunny Daze is a charming two-bedroom beachfront cottage that has been in the same family for generations. It is a well-loved family home that has been enjoyed by the owners for years. Enjoy a white sandy beach in back by the dock and the beautiful gulf beach in front. The yard is lush with frangipani, papaya trees, key lime trees and large seagrapes that form a bower as you approach the cottage. There is a wonderful sense of privacy and isolation in this cottage.brbrbrbrThis home would be a perfect winter retreat for artists, writers or educators on sabbatical. It is also perfect for a small family or couple that wants a private and relaxing getaway close to the beach and the bay. For fishing enthusiasts, its location at the south end means that fishing is great right off the dock and the pass is easily accessible from the dock.brbrbrbrThe home is cozy and comfortable with dramatic views of the Gulf from the living room, dining room and kitchen. brbrbrbrThe master bedroom offers a king size bed with brand new mattress and bedding, and it has sliding doors which lead to a quiet and private balcony overlooking the back yard and the bay. It is a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee in complete privacy, as you watch the sun come up and peek through the sea grapes.brbrbrbrThe second bedroom offers two twin beds. There is also a sleeping loft which guests may use, but it is accessed by a very steep ladder and is not appropriate for small children or those with limited mobility. There is also a sofa bed in the living room, so the home sleeps up to 6. Rates are based on 4 guests, however, so extra guests will require an additional guest fee.brbrbrbrThe living room and dining room both have shutters for privacy and sliding doors that open to the covered porch. The shutters allow you to easily shield lights from the beach during turtle nesting season and they can be easily opened to reveal the views of the Gulf. The windows are across the entire front of the home so you have great beach views and great sunset views.brbrbrbrThe kitchen is quite basic and does not have a dishwasher, but it is well stocked with pots and pans, and all the dishes you need. brbrbrbrThere is a storage shed downstairs with a washer dryer and there is also a downstairs outdoor shower for rinsing off after coming back from the beach, an afternoon of fishing off the dock or a day of boating. The owners allow you to use their kayaks and their canoe; a waiver is required and lifejackets are provided. brbrbrbrThe beach in front of the house requires a short walk down a sandy pathway, thru the dunes. Beach chairs and an umbrella are provided for your enjoyment of the beach.brbrbrbrSunny Daze is an iconic Little Gasparilla cottage, filled with sepia photos of early island scenes. You will enjoy the shell collections, artwork and the memories of the family who has enjoyed it for so many years. It is not modern or updated, but a simple, comfortable home where you can kick off your flip flops at the door, sit on the porch and enjoy the dramatic sunsets and make your own family memories!brbrbrbrWifi- included with no data limitations.brbrbrbrPet Policy - pet-friendly with $100 non-refundable fee per pet; some breeds may be excluded due to insurance restrictionsbrbrbrbrDamage Protection - The $59 charge listed as a management fee on your quote covers your purchase of $2500 of “all risk” damage protection coverage on your rental property. This protection is purchased in lieu of a cash damage deposit. Coverage details are spelled out in your contract.brbrbrbrCleaning Fee - minimum $325 cleaning feebrbrbrbrMinimum Renter Age - 25brbrbrbrDock - private dock brbrbrbrSatellite TV - yesbrbrbrbrGrill Type - charcoalbrbrbrbrCoffee - drip (filters provided)brbrbrbrParking - $8/night ($10/night if you have a boat trailer) at Eldred's Marina on the mainland where you meet the boat taxibrbrbrbrHoliday surcharges- applied for reservations for Independence Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas/New Years timeframesbrbrbrbrThe Neighborhood:brbrThe entire cottage is yours to enjoy, as well as 7 miles of pristine Gulf of Mexico beach. The home includes a private dock if you choose to rent a boat. There are no stores or restaurants on the island. There is a fabulous wood fired pizza delivery option and grocery delivery service. We also have an on island guest services manager if you need anything during your stay.brbrbrbrGetting Around:brbrThe water taxi runs daily on demand, so getting back to the mainland is relatively easy, but most people choose to stay on the island and enjoy the peace and privacy. The water taxi runs daily during daylight hours, roughly 8 to 5, and the fare averages $30 minimum for 2 people with an additional $15 per person. The taxi will run after dark but there is a surcharge for runs after dark. Please note that we do have 911 service on the island as well as paramedics on the island if you are concerned about emergency medical treatment.brbrbrbrOther Things to Note:brbrPlease evaluate your expectations before booking a stay on Little Gasparilla Island. If you are expecting a polished resort atmosphere, Little Gasparilla is decidedly more rustic. During periods of heavy rain or tropical storms, there may be standing water on the roadways, at the dock and around the house. This is a tropical environment with mosquitos, rust, power outages and other minor inconveniences. If you are expecting resort amenities and services, the island might not be for you.brbrbrbrInteraction with Guests:brbrWe value your privacy highly and will not intrude, but we can get to the island fairly quickly if you have issues. We also have an on-island Guest Services Manager and handyman for emergency repairs. Our cleaning crew is on-island and should be notified immediately if you encounter any cleanliness issues.
