Fantastic house on the water for our week of fishing. The host allowed us to use the dock to tie up our boats which helped tremendously. The home was very clean and in a great location. Quiet neighborhood and nice neighbors. 10/10, I would stay here again if I come back to Pine Island, FL.

Brand New and Beautiful

My husband and I brought his boat and we stayed for 2 weeks at White Sands. Boat launch is right down the road and house has a nice dock on the canal, heated pool, screened porch which we loved that overlooks the pool and waterway, beautiful kitchen, spacious living room and comfy beds. Definitely a 5 Star home.

Beautiful home!

My family stayed for a week and had a wonderful time! The house is beautiful and the location is amazing! St. James City provides access via boat to some of the most desirable beaches and islands, including Cayo Costa, Captiva, Sanibel and Boca Grande, while allowing you to stay out of the hustle and bustle of busy summer crowds. Alex did a great job communicating and addressing any questions. We definitely plan on returning.
