About this house rental
Experience the charm of island tranquility with this enchanting 4-bedroom beach haven, nestled on the serene Little Gasparilla Island. It's time for you to indulge in the island lifestyle. Stepping inside this 1,440-square-foot oasis reveals a gracefully maintained and thoughtfully updated interior. Each of the four bedrooms offers a cozy escape after sun-drenched adventures, while the two bathrooms have been revitalized with new vanities and toilets, ensuring modern comfort. Imagine lounging on the expansive lanai, where gentle gulf breezes whisper through the air, offering a glimpse of the sparkling waters. With the home's location a mere three lots away from the gulf, leisurely strolls take you directly to the deeded beach access of Gaspar's Hideaway. The ground level transforms into an alfresco entertainment hub, complete with a built-in cooking area featuring a gas grill, mini-fridge, ice maker, and a fully decked lounge space to gather and create unforgettable memories. An outdoor shower affords a refreshing rinse from beach jaunts or boating excursions.
Experience the charm of island tranquility at Pura Vida, an enchanting four-bedroom beach retreat tucked along the serene shores of Little Gasparilla Island. This 1,440-square-foot oasis blends comfort, coastal style, and easygoing island living, making it the perfect setting for relaxation, connection, and unforgettable beach days.
Step inside to discover a bright, airy interior with open living spaces designed for gathering after sun-filled adventures. Each of the four bedrooms offers a comfortable place to unwind, while the outdoor living areas invite you to slow down and savor the island breeze. Spend evenings under the stars in the covered outdoor lounge area, complete with a gas grill, outdoor TV, hammock, and small beverage refrigerator-an ideal setup for alfresco dining, casual entertaining, or simply relaxing after a day on the sand. A separate ice maker makes it easy to keep drinks cool from morning to night.
Located just a few lots from the beach, Pura Vida offers quick access to the turquoise Gulf waters and pristine sandy shoreline. Golf carts are available for rent on the island, making it easy to explore at your own pace. Accessible only by boat or ferry, Little Gasparilla is a peaceful, bridgeless barrier island far removed from the crowds. Guests will need their own boat or must arrange water taxi or ferry service to come and go. Days here are made for wandering miles of unspoiled shoreline, collecting seashells, enjoying the gentle Gulf breeze, or casting a line in some of Southwest Florida's best fishing waters.
Additional Details: Pura Vida accommodates up to eight guests and includes one king bed, two queen beds, and two twin beds. Amenities include WiFi, air conditioning, a washer and dryer, ice maker, outdoor TV area, hammock, beverage refrigerator, gas grill, and more.
A $500 refundable security deposit is required. Applicable charges include 12% tax, cleaning and reservation fees, and a 3% credit card processing fee, which is waived for check payments. Skip the extra fees and enjoy more beach days when you book direct with Tarpon Real Estate. No smoking is permitted. Stay a week or a lifetime-Pura Vida makes every day feel like island time.

We love this beach, no loud music, no crowds, nothing much to do but enjoy it and Pura Vida was a great place to enjoy it at, thank you!

First thing you need to know that it is on an island not accessible by car. You must take a water taxi that is 20 per person each way. I didnt know this until 6 days before arrival. There is also NO stores, reaturants, or anything else to buy. There is an island delivery service that will bring groceries for a fee. With all that being said, it was an amazing get away. We basically had the beach to ourselves and everyone was very helpful. With no restaurants, we had fun cooking meals together and had lots of dance parties. It felt like we had no neighbors and were about 100 yards from the shoreline. The beds were comfortable and the rental agency checked on us daily to make sure everything was going well. I was thrown at first when I found out about no cars on the island but it ended up being an awesome experience. I look forward to bringing friends back again. Again, the beach to ourselves was the highlight of the trip. fee. There are no cars on the island.
