  Seven pristine miles of windswept beach. This in itself is reason enough to fall in love with Gasparilla Island. We walked several miles everyday in perfect temperatures, being kissed by heavenly gulf breezes. We observed a manatee and schools of fish off the north point, drank wine by sunset and had to drag ourselves indoors at the end of the day. In a word, : this is paradise. The Boca Grande Club was not only a spectacular location, but the amenities provided everything you would want to insure a perfect family or couple's vacation haven. Mack the owner, was professional, anticipating our needs, providing directions, offering suggestions of things to do and places to eat, came through with an impeccably clean accommodation with tasteful decorating, and even a bottle of wine upon our arrival. He was quite remarkable in his desire to provide my crew with a great experience. The club itself provides a concierge who brings your umbrellas and lounge chairs in at sunset. There is an adequate workout facility, well maintained tennis courts and a lovely pool with tikki bar that sits right on the beach and overlooks the gulf. We ate lunch at the Boca Grande Club restaurant overlooking the gulf. The menu includes healthy fare. Gasparilla island itself oozes charm from the restaurants boasting fresh catch of the day, the fabulously charming Gasparilla Inn, the lighthouse, no traffic and a golf cart path which runs the length of the island and is the preferred mode of transportation. We rented bikes one day, a golf cart the next, all at the office of the Boca Grande Club. I vacationed with my daughters, one of whom is expecting a baby this summer. She was delighted at the privacy provided on this island's beaches, particularly on the north shoreline near the club. So if you're looking for a fabulous location, a great facility, and the nicest landlord ever, then look no further. And you know what??? It had been 20 years since I had been to Florida because I had never found a beach town I liked!!! This place shattered my expectations.

  The condo more than met our expectations! The furnishings are lovely, coordinated, colourful and up to date! The beds were comfy,the linens fresh, the water pressure great, the kitchen well equipped and the view from the screened in porch area was gorgeous. The location of the condo is close to everything which was important to us as we did not want our mother having to walk far to get to the beach or the pool. We enjoyed the club .... did two Yoga classes, three aqua fit classes, kayaked, used the gym once(to nice weather to stay inside)plus lots of beach walking. We even saw Dolphins swim down the beach...so beautiful! We loved having delicious Pina Coladas from the Tiki Bar by the pool! One of our favourite dinners was grabbing a Lobster roll from Newlins in town and going to a beach for a sunset picnic...THE BEST! Our second best night was at South Beach Bar and Grill where we had Gouper and delicious Ribs while enjong the sun set! Of course we were there to soak up some sun on the beach which was easy with the club lounge chairs and great beach umbrellas which the club supplies and will set up. We visited Gaspirilla Inn for drinks which is gorgeous...a must see! Overall this place was prefect for a relaxing and bonding getaway. Just what the Dr ordered!

  The rental was on the beach very private very clean everything worked had all the necessities.appliances in great condition. good linen and beds two nice tv's. good hot water and nice plumbing. Nice dishes and cutlery and silverware.The complimentary wine was good.The owner contacted us and was extremely nice, helpful and efficient. There was a brochure packet with a lot of helpful tips about the area. There were current publications about the area also. The pictures in the listing were the condo. All the restaurants at this area are gourmet. The beaches and the fishing were beyond belief.

  My wife, daughter and I stayed at this perfectly located beachfront Condo for 2 weeks. We very much appreciated the peaceful walks on the beach hunting sea shells and spending hours just relaxing and listening to the ocean. The Condo was very well maintained and the quality of the furnishings and houseware was 5 star. The screened in deck was a wonderful place to start the day with breakfast and finishing the day playing games as the sun set. The owners were the perfect host and made us feel welcome from the start. We look forward to a return visit.

  My girlfriend and I planned a girls fishing weekend for Tarpon and stayed at this amazing property on Gasperilla Island. We were very pleased to have found this amazing place to stay which was very well maintained and steps to the beach. The condo was BEAUTIFUL and truly made us feel as if we were at a spa.... We enjoyed peaceful walks on the stunning beach, amazing sunrises and sunsets.and of course the amazing Tarpon fishing. The condo was very clean and VERY comfortable. I had the master bedroom and felt as if you were sleeping out under the stars.. Views were amazing.... we are planning on returning next year and hope that we are able to stay at our home away from home again... The owners were amazing and wonderful to work with... I highly recommend this condo for anyone who wants the true experience of what a vacation is meant to be... Peaceful, fun and sun.... Thank you, Allison Nussbaumer

  We just returned from our first trip of what I hope to be many returns to Boca Grande and this perfectly located beachfront condo. I stayed with my wife and two sons ages 12 and 13. The unit and club are just as advertised and exceded all of our expectations. Clean, comfortable, private and well maintained. Walk out the door of the screened patio and a few steps later you are on one of the most beautiful and quiet beaches that we found perfect for walking, shelling, snorkeling, fishing and just laying back relaxing in the sun. We rented a golf cart from the club that we used to get around the island. This was a big hit with the kids as well. The owners were the perfect hosts and made us feel welcome from the start. We are already looking forward to our next stay.

  If you are looking for a relaxing vacation, this is the place to be. We were 4 girlfriends staying in this beautiful two bedroom condo in Boca Grande and were pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff at Boca Grande. We stayed (5) nights and loved being located right on the beach - wonderful to fall asleep to the rythm of the ocean at night. We ate breakfast in the screened-in patio overlooking the ocean. The beaches are beautiful and you can walk for miles - all beaches are public. Lots of beautiful shells and we were lucky to witness a few weddings on the beach. As my girlfriends and I lead very busy lives, we opted for a relaxing vacation in Boca Grande. The pool is very nice and clean. We rented bikes - best way to tour Boca Grande. We also played tennis - the Club will lend you rackets and the courts are located a few steps away from condo. Courts are well maintained. There are good restaurants in town - recommend supper in the gardens of Third Street Cafe and lobster rolls at Newlin's. I highly recommend this condo in Boca Grande.

  This wonderfully equipped Gulf Front condo with a great view of the Gulf of Mexico was an amazing place to spend our family vacation. The gated property, all the surroundings as well as all the facilities were first rate. We took full of all the swimming pools, especially the one with the Tiki bar, the health club and the tennis courts daily. The beach was beautiful, fun for shelling and walking along and the ocean crystal clear. We highly recommend this property and already booked for next year.

  My husband and I just returned from 2 weeks at this lovely apartment steps from the most magnificent beach. The apartment is beautifully decorated and well equipped. The Boca Grande club has many amenities including pool, tiki bar, beach chaises and umbrellas. The town is charming and seems like what Florida would have been years ago before strip malls. Great restaurants and shops as well! You cannot go wrong at this wonderful apartment.
