'Incommunicado ' ~A~ Hammock, Cool Drink, Whispering Pines...
About this house rental
Nestled in Palm Island, this lovely house for R 5,526 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Come on down, grab a cool drink and nestle yourself into our hammock under the whispering Florida pines. Watch the sunrise from our secluded dock and the sunset from the pristine beach every day. Relax... This is a true island surrounded by the beautiful blue/green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Located in Colony Don Pedro, deserted, white sandy beaches on the west side and intercoastal, backwaters on the east side. Put your car on the private ferry over to the island and feel the stress leave your body. No traffic here. The only sounds you will hear are the fish jumping in the lagoon or the waves crashing the beach. Most days, Stan, our resident turtle will wake you as he passes by for a few green beans or a few chomps on our hibiscus flowers. Just 200 feet from your front door you can head south down the uninhabited beach, pass through the state park, about three miles and you are at the tip of Little Gasparilla Island. From that point south you are looking at Boca Grande. Head north up the beach about the same distance and visit the Palm Island Resort. Either direction you go the seashells and sharks teeth are under your feet. Watch for tarpon rolling, dolphins cruising, manatees, and loggerhead turtles bobbing their heads as you walk. Remember to take a dip in our gulf side private pool after your relaxing stroll. Relax out back on the dock with your fishing pole. The snook, redfish, and trout are always there waiting to challenge you. Watch your bait, Jimmy the Egret will sneak up behind you and steal your fish food. Bring your boat and venture out into the fertile back country waters for giant snook, redfish, and tarpon. Or head down to Boca Grande or Stump Pass for world class Florida fishing. So if you blew out your flip-flop, or stepped on a pop-top, relax you’re in paradise! Keywords: Villa

After a much needed rest we found this beautiful space that provided us with everything we could possibly need. We truly didn’t need to bring a thing. Tracy was incredibly kind and communicative. We can’t wait to return❤️

Our favorite location so far on the island. First time on this end and what a great stay. The sunrise with coffee in the morning in the porch to being on the beach in minutes for shelling. Our family truly
enjoyed the stay.

We came to palm island just 6 weeks after hurricane Ian to celebrate our adult daughters birthday. The beach house was perfect, loved the fact that we did not have to bring our own beach chars etc. we literally were the only people on the beach. As Hurricane Nicole approached the other coast, our host was in communication with us regarding the ferry schedule etc. making sure we were ok and didn’t need anything,
would highly recommend this place!!!

Beautiful well kept properly. Very clean, beautifullly decorated. Everything you need is there. Great outside area with swing & hammock & picnic table & grilles underneath home. Walkway to docks for boats and fishing. Just across the street is path to gulf & pool area. We rented a golf cart to explore the island. Loved our stay!

This is the second year we stayed at Tracey's property. It is in a great location with easy access to the beach and also to a canal for boating and kayaking. The place is stocked with everything you need. Just bring clothes, toiletries, food and drink!! The rest is magic!!

Another Don Pedro favorite
House was just right. No issues with anything. A bit of an older unit but very well maintained and with all you will need. Tracy is excellent to work and communicate with.

Upon boarding the ferry, my husband and I immediately felt a sense of total relaxation. To say this island is peaceful and serene is a great understatement. We have never been to a place or a beach that was as private as Don Pedro Island. I don't think we saw more than 10-12 families on the entire stretch of beach as far as we could see on the busiest day. Upon arriving at Incommunicado, we felt at home and settled right in. Tracy had left a hand-written note in the kitchen welcoming us, and her pre-check-in communications more than prepared us for our stay and how to make the most of our vacation. The unit was fully equipped for everything we needed and more! And the master bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept on in a rental or hotel. We had such a relaxing stay and everyone we met on the island was so friendly. The beach and pool are literally only a few steps away and it was so nice to be able to run back and forth to the house as needed on a very short walk. A couple of takeaways from our trip: 1) make sure you have what you need before you get on the island or be prepared to pay the $38 round trip ferry ticket. Walmart and Publix are very near the ferry launch and an easy stop on your way in. Load up and make sure you have what you need before getting on the island. Coconuts, the little store at the resort, has a very small selection of basic items. They are not a full service store. We opted to buy an additional ticket and spend one day of our trip visiting Little Gasparilla Island and Boca Grande. It was lots of fun and a great way to break up the week and explore more of the area. We stopped at Publix on the way back to pick up a few things we forgot on the way in. 2) We were expecting to catch some fish either off the dock or surf fishing. We are experienced in both fresh and saltwater fishing and used a combination of different types of live bait and tackle every day we were there. Sadly, we only caught one catfish off the back dock. If you are looking for the Florida fishing experience, I suggest booking a charter. Others we saw fishing didn't catch anything either. We saw black drum, snook, and tarpon swimming and jumping, but they weren't biting. There were lots of "bait fish" swimming, so perhaps they had plenty to eat without entertaining what we had to offer. Regardless of the fishing, we had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend Incommunicado for a comfortable, peaceful stay on Don Pedro Island!

Before our trip even began . We had amazing communication on inquiring on additional person accommodation. Pleasure to interact with always. This home is absolutely what the pictures show and so much more. From time of arrival until departure absolutely serene & peaceful. The beach location was just walk across a sleepy dirt road for one of the prettiest beaches in Florida. Not another person on it for 3 or more football fields. So private. The kitchen has all accessories to a home I could possibly want or need. They also have a play toy bin for children. The outside shower was so convenient and a fun way to clean up from the beach. We also used the kayaks too. So much or little to do. Truly a slice of paradise. We will certainly be back.

This place was awesome! We had such a wonderful time on the island. It has everything you need to enjoy yourself and was super clean, which I really appreciate! Tracy is also the best, when we got there we didn’t have Wi-Fi and then lost power for the night; she told us where the candles, water and flashlights where and kept us update to date on when everything would come back on and then checked on us the next morning! Thanks for a great time Tracy!

Better then Palm Island Resort
We went to a family wedding at the resort. When we needed to change our reservation to a smaller unit, they couldn't accommodate us so we found this spot. It was cleaner, better maintained and a better value than the Resort. The beach walk from this location to the Resort was lovely, and took about 40 minutes. A good choice!

Great Location!
This home was in a great location. The beach is just steps away and the dock off the backyard gives you direct access to the water. The home was stocked with everything you could possibly need to feel at home. There's plenty of outdoor living space to relax and enjoy your stay.

This was the best vacation we have ever been on we seen sea turtles, dolphins and found tons of shells and over 100 shark teeth . Tracy was a great host and we will definitely be back. Don Pedro Island is a paradise and the home was very clean and had everything that you need just bring your clothes and food.

We loved the wooded yard between the screened porch and the lagoon. It kept the sun at bay, and brought lovely breezes in the morning. the kitchen was very well appointed, but the King bed was a tad too high for us. We had to catapult onto it, and fall out of it. ha Really, everything was lovely.
Tracy December was easy to contact and very helpful when I had any question at all.
A very nice stay.
