Two Bedroom. Two Bath. Ocean View. End Unit with lots of natural light!! We purchased this condo in June 2022 and hurricane Ian hit in September of 2022, so we don't have the rental history that our other gulf facing unit (J2) has, That unit we have owned since 2018 and we have a strong rental review (68 reviews, 4.9 stars) on that unit and have the same goals for this newly remodeled condo.

Our condo is located at Hideaway Bay Beach Club on Little Gasparilla Island which overlooks the Gulf of Mexico, a seven mile, white sand, bridge-less barrier island. Guests will park their vehicle in a secured lot and board the free condo ferry for a five minute ride to our island retreat. This piece of paradise provides a time for families and friends to reconnect as they enjoy the seclusion of this island getaway.

The bay side provides boat slips and a dock for fishing. A heated in ground pool and community barbecue grill and smoker are also located there. The screened lanai provides a view of the gulf over the boardwalk and sea oats. And the ocean waves are just a quick walk away.

This furnished condo features 'beachy' decor, comfortable luxury bedding, 2 full baths, washer and dryer, and a well furnished, full-sized kitchen.

The unit sleeps six: one king master, and one queen bed and 2 twin beds in the loft / 2nd bedroom. Both WIFI and satellite tv are provided. The condo is equipped with 3 big screen TVs, one in the living room, master bedroom and 2nd bedroom. Various beach toys, chairs, boogie boards, umbrella and a grill are located in the storage garage below our unit. Golf cart, kayak, paddle board and canoe are included in your stay!!

Because there are no stores on the island, guests will need to bring in groceries. However, wonderful restaurants and activities are within a short driving distance with a quick ferry ride back over the bay to the mainland.

Enjoy time exploring the island by foot or golf cart over the white sand paths. Various local landmarks include the island chapel, library, and Don Pedro Island State Park. With no roads or traffic, this very special island surrounds you with incredible nature, the way Florida used to be. Amazing shells, sand dollars, and shark teeth bring new surprises as you stroll on the beach. Enjoy morning coffee watching the huge variety of birds, dolphins and manatees swim by or relax with evening sunsets filled with glorious colors over the ocean waves.

Golf Cart
- Our golf cart is offered as a courtesy to our renters. If the golf cart has mechanical issues during your stay, we will try our best to resolve it. If it cannot be resolved, no refunds will be given.

Wonderful!

We always love coming to LGI and this condo was great! Cutely decorated and clean. We loved sitting on the porch and working a puzzle with such an amazing view. The golf cart being included really iced the cake for us. We also enjoyed the pool in the evenings after being in the boat and on the beach all day. Just can’t say enough good things about LGI!

Amazing Getaway!

We had never been to Little Gasparilla Island before this trip, and I am so very happy that I found John & Beth's condo at Hideaway Bay Beach Club. It was more than we could have asked for. From the moment we took the short ferry ride over to Hideaway, any stress that we had melted away and it was very easy to sink into "island life/time". The condo is well appointed and super clean - had everything that we needed and more. Having the golf cart was a huge bonus, and so much fun. Also, the beach chairs/umbrellas and all other water toys were so great to have on hand. During our 3 days at Hideaway, we spent so much time at the amazing beach. If I didn't know better, it felt like we were in the Bahamas or some other Caribbean island. We spotted many manatee while swimming, which was another unexpected bonus. Will we be come back again? Heck yes! Will we try to stay at this condo? Without a doubt. Well done!

Condo was well appointed and nicely decorated. You can tell the owner did their best to anticipate any wants or needs renters could have on the island. We would definitely come again!

A true treasure!

We couldn't be more pleased with our stay on LGI. The condo was perfectly appointed with everything necessary and MORE! We especially loved the homey decor with just the right amount of beachy vibe - but not overdone. The condo was spotless and the beds were comfy. We even located bug spray and sunscreen in the condo! The location was amazing! We had an incredible view of the ocean over the dunes. The screened in patio gave us a place to relax outside under a fan without worrying about bugs. The golf cart was a wonderful bonus and we used it every day. We were pleasantly surprised to find a large array of bonus items (boogie boards, kayaks, pool noodles, etc.) in the garage area. We even left the sand toys we brought as an addition. I would be remiss if I did not mention the thoughtful communication from our hosts. They checked on us a few times and we had the ability to contact them immediately if a problem arose. We would definitely stay here again and are looking forward to the next trip!

About the host

Hosted by John Hofer

Host profile image
We are John & Beth Hofer. We are from Kansas City but love SW Florida and the beauty of LGI. We love sharing our condos with other families, so they can unwind and relax on a 7 mile beach that is not crowded!

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood for the crystal blue waters and private beach!!

What makes this property unique

This is a semi-private island with no cars, no commercialization and one of the best beaches in SW Florida. The community is welcoming and helpful, and we stand out on LGI because we offer a ferry service each day that can take our guests back to the mainland for free!!
