Sunrise Bay at Little Gasparilla: Private Waterfront Dock & Short Walk to Beach!

“Sunrise Bay at LGI” 🗓Our island home is rentable for a 7 night minimum/maximum through the VRBO site. This helps us to provide a more flexible cancellation policy. 🌅 Follow us on Facebook, TikTok and YouTube where we have many more videos. Sunrise Bay at Little Gasparilla Island

*Little Gasparilla Island is a bridge-less, barrier island off the west coast of Florida in the city of #Placida. This home is accessible ONLY by private boat or boat taxi and the living quarters are accessible ONLY by stairs on the 2nd story with the laundry room downstairs on the bottom deck. 🌴Private 65' dock directly out front on the bay with a 5 minute walk to the beach. We welcome a small number of weekly rentals each year. Canal can get shallow at low tide.

⚠️Persons not listed in your contract as staying at our home (4 Adults maximum) are not permitted to visit or be on our property. Please do not seek to book with us if this is your intention, as it is non-negotiable. We can recommend other neighboring homes that may better fit your needs if you are traveling with others or have friends/family in the area.
LATE checkout at NOON - enjoy your last day! We recommend purchasing travel insurance appropriate for your needs.

🔨Our home renovations are COMPLETE after Hurricane Ian damages. Please be fully aware and acknowledge that the island is not completed nor will many homes be fixed likely for several years to come. Many had to be torn down or are waiting their turn to be torn down. Then if they are rebuilding it takes up to 2 years for a home to be built here. There will be construction going on next door, on our canal, and completely throughout the entire island. It is far better than it was initially during the first 6 months but all of southwest Florida will have construction. Please ensure that you understand none of it is under our control and we can only manage the home we own. It is STILL glorious paradise despite it all!

*Spa Coastal Accommodations with Spectacular View for 4 Adult Guests. Family Owned & Operated. Welcome Guide link sent via VRBO messaging platform - this has so much detailed information about your stay at our home and LGI to help you prepare well. Located on the "North Canal" of the south end of Little Gasparilla Island, Florida. No contact arrival and departure; AC filters changed frequently.

LGI is a gorgeous tiny island which is only accessible by boat - there are no shops or restaurants...instead you have several miles of private white beaches, world class fishing for tarpon and snook, along with the most spectacular sunrises and sunsets!

🛏2 Bedrooms - Kings, 14 inch gel memory foam

🚽2 Full Indoor Bathrooms (showers only, intentionally no tubs)

🛋Sleeper Sofa - memory foam Queen (length is of a single mattress but width is of a Queen; not for taller persons)

🚿Outdoor Shower with extra large rainfall shower-head (the favorite)

🚤~ ​Easy Docking In All Conditions! Docks come in all different shapes and dealing with currents can make it more difficult to come and go with ease. Fortunately, the North Canal is the widest and with our home at the front you'll not stress about getting to your dock and your boat is well-protected during choppy weather. It has enough room for larger boats. Snook and all kinds of fish can also be caught here (depending on the fisherman!).

💻~ Not All Homes Have WiFi. Ours does! While we love the remoteness of the island, we also want to be able to stay for weeks on end with the ability to work from home. Stream YouTubeTV, Disney+, Netflix, Hulu, Apple, Prime etc on our 65" tv.

🌅~ Bay and Beach - Best of Both Worlds and direct deeded access to the beach! In the photos is a visual of the back of our home. See the little sandy path with the red arrows from our home to the ocean? A 5 minute walk straight to the ocean.

Enjoy the days watching dolphin and manatees from the dock, swimming in the ocean, kayaking (2 provided) canoeing (1 provided), stand up paddle boarding (1 provided), hunting for shark teeth in the sand. End them taking a short walk to the most awe-inspiring sunsets and then fishing off your own private dock. Cook dinner on our charcoal grill (starter charcoal and lighters provided - don't lug that over; we will do it for you!)

🛌CAPACITY

- 4 Adults only, no children or teenagers: please keep in mind that we have 2 bedrooms and each has a King sized bed. The third area to sleep is a Queen 'short' sleeper sofa. A tall adult would not be comfortable sleeping there.

- Our bedding is modeled after luxury hotels; we remember not sleeping well when we rented on LGI for 13 years and ensured that our home was not only an amazing location for the views and fishing but a place you'd find rest.
