Two Bedroom. Two Bath. Ocean View. Our condo is located at Hideaway Bay Beach Club on Little Gasparilla Island and 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 with new appliances in December 2019, and new kitchen in 2025!

The unit sleeps six: one king master, one queen bed, with two twin beds in the loft. Both WIFI and satellite tv are provided. The condo is equipped with a kitchen table that will seat 6, 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, paddle board and kayak are included as a courtesy for 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 Info
- Our golf cart is provided to our renters as a courtesy. We will do our best to maintain a running cart. If the cart has mechanical issues during your stay, we will do our best to fix it. We will not provide any refunds for a non-working golf cart. Unfortunately the sandy terrain can cause issues with the electrical carts at times, so we ask our renters to be gentle on how they use the golf cart, no puddles, no deep sand and do not overload it.

Graduation Celebration

My son and I stayed on the island and we loved the condo. The beach was fun and not crowded. We had it to ourselves one day. We found plenty of shells and shark teeth. The gulf cart was nice to drive and haul all our stuff back and forth from the condo and the beach. We even used the two person kayak. The condo was clean and communication with the owners was great. We will definitely come back and stay again.

beautiful beach

We have been coming to the island since 2008 and we were very happy to support the return of renters to LGI and Hideaway. The beautiful beaches and wildlife was plentiful and we even got to see some sea turtles returning to the ocean after laying their eggs! Hideaway Bay and the owners have been through a lot and each day it seemed like you could feel the progress that everyone has been working so hard for. Pack lighter than you think, sunscreen and bug spray was already in the condo waiting for us (we left what we brought for the next renters) and enjoy the tranquility of LGI. 7/7 sunny days, temps 85-90, no rain, great AC and great memories.

Our stay

We arrived after dark and could not find the condo we wandered around for a long time lugging the luggage carts. The condo units were not marked very well and we were eaten alive by the mosquitos. I tried to call the owner and he did not respond back to me. Luckily someone answered their door to help us out.the back doors were broken and we couldn’t use the dishwasher. However the beach was pristine and we had a wonderful time .

Paradise!

This is our second year staying at John and Beth's place. We absolutely love it! The condo is always clean and well-kept. We love the privacy of the island and we love taking the golf cart to the beach. Our kids begged to come back after last year and we had another incredible stay. We cannot wait to come again and again and make this our new vacation spot!

This was a very relaxing vacation. The condo was quite comfortable. The couch and one of the dining room chairs were stained but otherwise it was very clean. Walking and golf-carting to the beach was so much fun and a relaxing way to end our days of exploring.

Excellent care for guests

We did not actually get to stay at this rental due to hurricane Ian, but the hosts communicated so well with me leading up to the trip, answering all my questions promptly. Sadly, the hurricane did a lot of damage to the island, but the hosts refunded all our money since we couldn’t stay there. This was beyond what the rental agreement would have said to do, and I am so thankful they were so kind! I hope to get to stay at their place in the future, but in the meantime, know that these are exceptional hosts!

Escape from life to paradise!

This is our 3rd year at the same property and we cannot be happier! We love the new updated kitchen countertops. The unit is always clean and has a great view. We love having the beach so close and taking the golf cart there is a bonus! Being an isolated, car-free island, we love how empty the beaches are and it really is paradise without shoulder-to-shoulder tourists. We love how quiet it is and how we can spend time relaxing with our family. The hosts communicate really well and we just love this place. It's our new yearly tradition!

Beautiful Beach, beautiful ocean makes a great vacation

Our family of five (2 adults- 3kids 14, 11 & 8) had a nice beach getaway. Love the long stretch of beach for long morning walks and searching for shark teeth. Design elements were updated and nice in the condo, everything was working. The ferry was easy to use and the lack of cars was very nice on the island. The condo doesn't have seating for five inside or on the lani, so that was a daily issue for us. The pool was smaller than expected and really felt maxed out most afternoons. There were many other kids around and that was fun for our kids. Overall, we love this area and continue to come back for the beach.

Paradise

September was the perfect time for us to come to Little Gasparllia Island! Weather was perfect, very quite. We felt we had the island to our selves. The condo had a beautiful view of the pond and the ocean. The place had everything we needed to make us comfortable. It was great having use of the golf cart, kayaks and beach toys. The only issue we had was that we expected for the cost of the cleaning fee the condo would have been cleaner. When we arrived the dryer was full of towels, the kitchen counters were grungy and there was a lot of dust buildup. Aside from that the place was great, we would go back.

Wonderful Condo and Location

We had an absolute blast on our trip to LGI! We were looking for a safe place to vacation during COVID and this was it! The condo was very clean and perfect for our family of 4 (2 children- 4 and 5 yrs old). We loved having access to the golf cart that was available. We will definitely return as the beach is so close to the condo and the water was prestine. If you want to do absolutely nothing but spend time with your family and relax this is it! The only "issue" we had (which really was not an issue) was that the towels were left in the dryer by the cleaning crew. We did not realize this until halfway through our stay when we went to do laundry ourselves. We did have to search the place for extra towels to use because upon our arrival there because there were no towels out (which we found so again it wasn't a big deal). Other than that we had great communication with the owners prior to coming and we loved how updated the condo was.

A Wonderful Stay Was Had By All

The house has been updated and renovated beautifully. We had all the kitchen utensils, etc. that could need; however, we thought it would have been nice to be left more than one roll of paper towels and a half-roll of toilet paper in the downstairs bathroom. I didn't go upstairs so I don't know if that one was a full roll. We were told ahead of time we would be left one roll so we did bring some ourselves. We enjoyed reading the photo book about the family's experience buying and getting the condo in shape. So glad they took the time and effort that it required. We all had a very relaxing and enjoyable time and didn't mind the bit of noise from the next-door renovations. So glad we had a golf cart and the hand-cart for takiing our luggage, etc. to and from the dock. We loved the view from the porch and the beach was lovely. A perfect time of year to visit. We'll try to visit again and will most likely book this condo again.
