Little Gasparilla Island: Luxurious Bungalow, Private Beach, Fishing, Family
Wake up to breathtaking sunrises, casting soft hues across the calm turquoise waters. Cast a line for world-class tarpon, a renowned highlight of this secluded barrier island - across from Boca Grande. Mere steps away, a pristine 7-mile beach beckons with sparkling white sand and gentle waves, perfect for family sandcastle competitions and unforgettable sunset strolls.
Barefoot Bungalow is your oasis. The airy living area boasts high vaulted ceilings, creating a sense of both expansiveness and coziness. Relax with movie nights on smart TVs in both living areas, while two bedrooms and a loft provide comfortable havens for families to recharge after island adventures.
Imagine barefoot mornings on the deck, afternoons filled with laughter on the beach, and evenings spent stargazing from your private oasis. Barefoot Bungalow promises an unforgettable escape with an unspoiled connection to nature and those you love.
Arrive with your private boat or you can hop on the water taxi for a 4 min transport through our lakeside entrance at Dock# 69. Welcome to this rare and beautiful paradise.
