Four bedrooms and three baths offer plenty of room to spread out with friends and family.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. brbr And, if you would like to rent a golf cart to explore the island, we may be able to offer one, subject to availability. brbrSeadated offers high speed wireless internet service and several large brand new television sets, one in the living room, one in the master bedroom.

This protection is purchased in lieu of a cash damage deposit. Coverage details are spelled out in your contract.brbrShared dock - dock number 30. Access to a slip (one boat only, recommended 24 feet or under) is included in your rental (this is also where the water taxi drops you off)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 - charcoal and gasbrbrParking - $8/night ($10/night if you have a boat trailer) at Eldred's Marina where you meet the boat taxibrbrPLEASE 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.brbrThe Neighborhood:brLGI is only accessible via boat or the water taxi. The water taxi runs by appointment only and is $10 per person each way. There are no stores or restaurants on LGI, but there are grocery delivery options. The island is the perfect spot to unwind without the typical Florida beach crowds.brbrGetting Around:brThere are no cars or roads on the island. There are golf cart rentals available if you want to explore sandy pathways, but it is by no means necessary. A complimentary concierge will meet you at the dock upon arrival to assist with transporting your luggage and groceries to the home. You can request his assistance upon departure as well for a nominal fee.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.brbrInteraction with Guests:brWe are based on-island and we have an on island guest services manager available if you need anything during your stay. Maintenance requires service personnel from the mainland, however, so repairs may take longer than you may be used to on the mainland. Our mantra is go-with-the-flow.
