Luxury TOWNHOUSE directly ON GULF/OCEAN - Sunset view, Pool, Tennis, Wifi, Pets!

LUXURY TOWNHOUSE - renovated from top to bottom with granite countertops throughout!
* Free use of all the amenities on the Association property!
* It is only a 5 minute roundtrip on the water on the ferry/barge(you stay in your car). Do not let the ferry deter you from staying, as staying directly on the ocean (you literally fall asleep to the sounds of the ocean) on the mainland would be much more expensive... a pass is only required to get your car on the island - getting off is free - no reservations required and you buy a pass at the ferry before boarding with your car or even as a "walk on" - go onto www.palmislandtransit.com website for ferry info - you can buy a booklet of passes if you plan to go off often!
* It is aLUXURY END townhouse so it has more privacy and feels more like a house - it has 3 levels/decks, all directly on the ocean with clear ocean views (you can see Boca Grande), and has an indoor outdoor feel with big new sliding glass doors that slide completely open so that you feel that you are outside!
* Both bedrooms are on the top level, both bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms and both sets of bedrooms are completely separated from each other by another door, if you so choose, for complete privacy from one another :)
* Stainless Steel appliances in kitchen with filtered water in/from the fridge door.
* Enjoy filtered sunlight through palm trees whilst drinking your morning coffee on the private porch overlooking the ocean and/or relaxing eating your breakfast and lunch!
* Enjoy your own sunset drinks and then dinner on the same private porch in the evenings!
* Swimming pool (heated in winter) and also directly on the Gulf/ocean is only steps away, but not right next door, so that you are not disturbed by any pool noise.
* Tennis Court - 4 Tennis rackets provided for use(tennis court is across from the pool that is available to our guests to use).
* Cell phone service throughout the property and island.
* Cable/internet/TV and wifi are included and are throughout the townhouse/property.
* Brand new washer and dryer and dishwasher in the kitchen area for your private use.
* Almost private beach - no fees - you can see the dolphins from the porch.
* Complimentary car park right next to the townhouse, but golf carts used mainly as transport on the island.
* Dogs are allowed on the island beach on a leash - please inform owner if you wish to bring a dog, as there is a pet fee.
* Brand NEW tile throughout downstairs and brand new carpets upstairs - professionally sealed and cleaned - no mold, no smells and no sand.
* Brand new extra large 65 inch HD flat screen SMART TV (for Netflix etc.) in family room.
* 2 new SMART HDTVs in bedrooms.
* 3 private decks (one screened porch off family room and another off the Master bedroom and then the lower deck has a faucet for your feet or a complete shower etc for when you come off the beach).
* Sliding glass door off family room slides away completely so an open indoor/outdoor experience for your stay overlooking the ocean - watch dolphins swim by and pelicans dive for fish.
* Use of our Dock which is a 3 min walk from townhouse for use for 20 ft boat or for fishing.
* 2 new extra comfortable King size beds.
* 2 fully renovated private ensuite bathrooms upstairs and a fully renovated guest bathroom downstairs - altogether 3 toilets and 3 showers(all with hot and cold water).
* 2 modern new comfy family room sofas and a large dining table with 6 dining chairs.
* 4 new large stainless steel appliances, including a self-cleaning oven.
* New commercial size washer and dryer inside for your private use.
* Water filter in the side-by-side refrigerator door(although the water comes from the mainland company called Bocilla Utilities, which passes federal/state tests).
* Ice maker in the side-by-side refrigerator door.
* Both central heating and central air-conditioning throughout the townhouse.
* Coffee machine, coffee bean grinder, French Press, electric kettle, toaster, blender etc. plus high quality pots, pans, plates, dishes, glassware, cutlery, knives, garlic press etc.
* All linens and bath/hand towels, coat hangers and beach chairs are provided.
* Large Weber Kettle outdoor charcoal grill on ocean side - please throw out ash after use :)
* Outside shower (it is the third shower with both hot and cold water - the other 2 are inside) with a view of the ocean, both for yourself and your pets (has an extendable hand-held section)!
* Beautiful Gulf sunsets...and yes, we have seen the elusive green flash on the horizon!
* Brand new EMS/fire-engine/station staffed 24/7 on island - call 911 for help in an emergency.
* Beach is well known for it's wide variety of shells!
* we have outdoor camera - please walk pets off the property to do their business :)
* It is a Non- smoking property, which includes no smoking on outdoor porches.
* You can buy both car and walk-on ferry passes through the island ferry company!

There is one casual restaurant in the Resort and an ice cream/deli/coffee shop, as well as a cute gift store. There are no large high-rise buildings nor beach bars/loud music on the island (...but it is all available only a short car ferry ride away on the mainland!). Just the sounds of the ocean to lull you to sleep...you could call it nature's paradise! The area is also known for it's great shell collecting and fishing! Observe dolphins swimming by, manatees, pelicans diving into the ocean, turtles, turtle nests and baby turtles during the Summer season, many types of birds, gopher tortoises, even crocodiles in the intercostal waterway and bays....nature on your doorstep - an amazing experience that you will treasure forever! Golf carts are the preferred relaxing choice for exploring the island - you have to experience it for yourself!

Off island, there are 3 well-stocked Publix grocery stores, both locally-owned and chain restaurants, shops, golf courses, Boca Grande Island nearby, as well as the beautiful, modern Sarasota Mall. Cayo Costa Island and Cabbage Key (where Jimmy Buffet got his inspiration to write "Cheeseburger in Paradise") are only a boat ride away!
There is a short 4 min car barge style ferry ride(it is free to drive off) to get your car across from the mainland, so that you can drive your car right to our property - with self check in!

The area is served by four airports: Punta Gorda Airport, Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, Ft. Myers Airport and Tampa International Airport.

A week in paradise!
The townhouse was beautifully decorated and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare all meals. The view is awesome! It was so nice to sit on the lanai and relax, yet still feel like you were on the beach! Suzanne was a text away, however, we never needed to contact her, as everything was clearly communicated prior to our arrival. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Beach Home...
This beach house was so beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay on Palm Island. We always love coming to the island every year with our family to get a break from our busy life back in Ohio. Would definitely recommend this beach house.

Another Amazing Week At The Beach
We stayed at this beautifully remodeled condo in 2022 and immediately rebooked for this year. The location is perfect. We actually got married at Palm Island Resort at the north end of the island in 2015 but prefer to stay in Colony Don Pedro when we visit. This is our favorite unit we have stayed in especially since we’re able to bring our pup with us. My 5 year old and dog both enjoyed playing on the beach and in the surf. The pool is also a favorite. We enjoy coming back yearly to our little island in the sun and look forward to next year.

Great views, seemed like our private beach. Dog friendly. Need a car ferry (very short) to get here so consider that in your costs/budget/planning. If you have “experienced” knees or body parts there are stairs to consider. Great week, thanks, will add this to our collection of places that we would like to return to.

Ocean waves
What a lovely beach condo. It was just steps to the beach and the ocean was right there. There's not much to do on the island...which is exactly what we were looking for!! This is a true beach house so being outdoors enjoying the ocean, shelling, walking the beach and relaxing in the sun was perfect. The house has a well equipped kitchen for cooking and a weber charcoal grill. Everything is clean, well maintained and Susanne was in contact several times to make sure or trip was going well. We hope to return next year:)

Best Beach Bungalow
I think it best sums up our stay to say that when my husband entered the space, all I heard was, "Oh my God!" like three times before I even got inside! Beautiful from outside in and onto the beach only feet away! The space was so clean and welcoming, and the directions from Susanne were complete and comprehensive. The space is laid out perfectly with the ocean view at the forefront and doors that open the space to it worked beautifully. It rained our first day, but we didn't even care, because the view is so lovely and listening to the ocean is grand. The second floor was just as clean and tidy, and since there were only two of us, we just used one of the two bedroom and bathrooms available. They were both lovely, and our bedroom faced the ocean with a gorgeous balcony to welcome the morning sun every morning. As a New Yorker, sun is a rare commodity, so that was a beautiful thing to be able to do first thing out of bed. The beach is absolutely gorgeous, and we were sad to have to leave. We had such a marvelous time, and we hope to do it again next year. Pro tip - bring enough food for the stay unless you want to rent a golf cart to go off island, or pay again for a full size car. The "convenient store" is hardly either, but that isn't for this review. Susanne was very communicative, and lovely. Everything was fully explained and she checked in on us throughout our stay (one week). Really a marvelous place to stay!

Great place and location
Spent a week at this unit. Had a great time. Unit was as described and very nicely furnished, decorated and supplied with most anything you would need/want. Great view of gulf from living area and main level porch. Bedrooms and bathrooms were very nicely furnished and decorated and comfortable. Owner was very open to questions and provided quick responses. She would checkin throughout stay to see if we needed anything or had questions. She also provided very clear instructions for arrival and departure. It was a great week. Hopefully we will have an opportunity to visit again.

Nice property; very relaxing week.
We had a very nice, relaxing week. The ferry was only a minor inconvenience once we found our way around. The property is nice -- could use some attention to maintenance on the outside. The Weber grille was a nice feature for us. Susanne checked on us regularly.
