This 3 bedroom ( king, queen and 2 twins), 2 bath home has a gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops and modern appliances. All the flooring is tile or wood with no carpet anywhere. There is a pull out sofa in the living room that can sleep 2.
Screened lanai and large expansive decks including your very own Tiki bar and outdoor shower.

Lazy, breezy hammocks for total relaxation in the private area under house to relax and enjoy the lagoon view.

NO traffic, no traffic lights, no high rises, no crowds, just mother nature at her finest.
Pet friendly $150.00 pet fee one pet limit, with a signed pet agreement.

Have you vacationed on the island before? Palm Island a.k.a. Don Pedro Island, is a barrier island 7 miles long between Sarasota and Ft. Myers on the Gulf coast with sugar-sand beaches, beautiful harbors and lagoons, great fishing and shelling only accessible by a short 10 minute car ferry or private boat. Our beaches are some of the most pristine and quiet in all of coastal Florida. There are no high rises blocking your Gulf views, unpaved sandy roads, and a relaxed "Old Florida" atmosphere. There is one restaurant called the Rum Bay that serves lunch and dinner. The car ferry runs continually from 6:30 am until 10:00 pm from Sunday through Thursday and until 11:00 pm Friday and 12:00 midnight Saturday. You drive your car onto the ferry and then directly to your vacation rental home. It's a very special place to vacation.. All of our properties on Palm Island require a ferry ride to get there. One round trip on the ferry for car and passengers costs $55. The alternative is to purchase a book of 10 round trips for $400, or $40 per round trip. For more information on the ferry, google Palm Island Transit. Pet Policy: This home is Pet Friendly home. This means that ONE dog is permitted to stay at the rental. No cats are permitted in any of our properties. Certain aggressive breeds as designated by the State of Florida and outlined in our rental contract are not permitted. No exceptions will be made to this policy.

This was our third time on the island and it never disappoints. It was our first time at this property. The house was clean and had everything we needed for the week. This part of the island, were this property sits, has a Virgin Islands vibe. We definitely felt that we’re were a world away from the mainland. It’s very close to Don Pedro State park so we walk down the beach where there was barely anyone there. The downstairs was surprising as it was better than described. There were 2 hammocks, a bar area, enclosed outdoor shower, 6 person dining table, and corn hole set. About 8 beach chairs, a beach wagon, two umbrellas, float noodles, boogie boards, and a regular igloo style cooler were available for use downstairs as well. There were two kayaks and paddle boards with a kayak slide right on the property. The beach access is a very short half block walk past the tennis court. The property is on the best road on the island with very little traffic so the kids were running from our rental to our other family’s rental 2 doors down. The wrap around balcony was a hit with everyone including our Boston. Great sunrise views across the wide canal and peaks of the ocean from the front.We will be back soon.
