Boaters Paradise at Palm Point was a great location for easily docking the boat and unloading for our stay! The main house was beautiful and comfortable. The agent/owner were responsive and easy to work with. The location and the views - especially at sunrise were amazing! We even watched dolphins playing from the porch! The beach was a short walk away and the dock was very convenient for fishing trips. My family and I had an enjoyable time for a nice fall weekend!

Location was beautiful!
Primo property, looking out over Gasparilla Sound! Short boat ride to gorgeous sandbars and the southern tip of Lil Gasparilla Island where we had the beach to ourselves! This was our 6th visit on LGI & we never want to come home. We’ve been with family, our friends & just the two of us. We’ve stayed in a different rental each time & we’ve never had a bad experience. I could see myself living on LGI, very easily. The weather has always cooperated too! This past week, we had sunny days on the water, sandbars & beach… and witnessed beautiful & awesome storms in the evenings…. Aaaahhhh We find sharks teeth, beautiful sea shells, pelicans, manatees, dolphin & more. The island is quiet, peaceful, serene… Definitely the perfect place to unwind, relax & revitalize.

Loved the "vintage LGI" cottage - I felt the spirit and love of the family who own this property! Wonderful experience and wish I could tell her how much we enjoyed being there.
