We can't say enough about this place so we just keep coming back. The very first day about 7 dolphin and a manatee went by as we sat on the deck. Glen added the outside shower which you'll you'll find to awesome after a day on the beach. A couple of nights storms rolled in at sunset and it created spectacular photos. This House is not beach front, it's BEACH! Any further in the water and this house would be a boat! By far this is the very best location on the island. The solitude, of this location is makes it almost unbelievable that you can be on a beach and some days only see 3 or 4 other people all day I think our dogs are actually remembering the place! Glen and Sari Thank You both once again for sharing the magic of La La Land. We'll be back real soon! Rich, Teri, "Scooch & Noodles" Columbus, Ohio Thanks AgainRecommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, adventure seekers, tourists without a car.
Owner response: Hi Rich & Terri, Thanks so very much. You know we love it when you love it. We really enjoy sharing our home with whom ever fate brings our way. Always hoping to see you all again soon. Islandly GAS

Our stay was pure bliss. We must say a part of our heart was left on LGI. We enjoyed fishing, reading, riding in the golf cart, and walks in Don Pedro Park. We met many nice people during our stay both residents and visitors. We cannot wait to return to the island and hopefully this home will be free as it is by far the best home on the island with the kindest owners.Recommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you so very much for enjoying a little bit of paradise. Islandly GAS

We spent our Christmas here and it was absolutley amazing.. The house was beautiful & clean and Sari even put up a little Christmas tree for us.. :) This is the best place I have ever been on vacation... We saw dolphins playing everyday. The sunsets are amazing and the moonsets are out of this world. I have never seen such beautiful moonsets before. The location of the beach house is perfect, it's like having your own beach.. Glen was so nice & kind to us which made our stay even better... If you're looking for a little piece of heaven on earth this is it.. Glen & Sari you guys are so sweet & amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your paradise with us.. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.. Islandly yoursRecommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

We went for a week our family of 5 and our dog. We had such a relaxing vacation. The house was is very clean and is amazing. We felt like we had a beach to ourselves most of the time. We saw dophins, stingrays, and tons of big and little fish right from the deck. The house had everything you need to enjoy your stay. The decking on the house is great upstairs and downstairs plenty of seating. My dog loved being able to come right out of the house and sit herself down on the beach, so did I. The house is wonderful and you will not be disappointed. The house is one of the best locations on the beach.Recommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

We've been to Florida about 30 times and thought we had stayed at some really nice condos on the beaches. Without a doubt this was the most awesome place we've ever stayed. It's Florida's best kept secret. From the sound of the waves 24/7, the morning golf cart rides, incredible sunsets, sharks teeth, and the Manatee that went by, our vacation was so incredible......we already booked it again....... Sari & Glen were unbelievable Hosts and obviously take a lot of pride in the condition of their home. It was so awesome that it took us 4 days to see 30 people. One day we only saw three people on the beach! We put the beach chairs in the water and sat there all afternoon drinking daiquiris while the waves splashed on us. We never left the island the entire week! Our little dogs ran all over the beach until they were completely exhausted! We booked it again, and can't wait to get back. Thank you Sari & Glen for sharing your home See you soon!.

My Husband and I and our Golden Retriever stayed here for the first time. We explore lots of places in Florida. This place was by far one of the best locations we have visited. Out on the deck you are actually sitting over the ocean. It is so gorgeous.... The house is everything the pictures show. Quite nice and very clean. Sari & Glen have provided everything you need. Our dog Sydney was in her own little LALA Land. Thank you Sari and Glen. You made our trip perfect!!!!!!! I will without a doubt recommend this property to friends.Recommended for: Age 55+, pet owners, adventure seekers.

This place is so fantastic that we broke one of our holiday rules – we came back a second year! This can lead to disappointment but not here, our stay at Sari and Glen’s beach house was even better this year. They offer two flat-screen TV’s but who’d want to watch those when far superior drama, suspense, comedy and entertainment can be viewed every hour of the day from their deck. The seabirds jostling around on the beach at dawn, the dolphins and the rare manatees sighted during the morning, the flocks of pelicans flying in formation like a fighter squadron, and in our case, the amazing sight of a sea turtle below the house at dusk crawling up to lay her eggs. Then, every evening there’s a totally photogenic sunset and later electric storms far out at sea. Beat that HBO! We are now planning a little more rule breaking next year.Recommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing.

If you want to get a way from it all and still have all the amenities of home, look no further. Great house, great location, great price, great owners. Our first vacation without any plans and it actually passed by slower than any previous one. Don't stay here....more availability for the rest of us who have! Glen/Sari, thank you for being so gracious by sharing "La La Land" with those of us who cant' live the dream yet. Islandly...Dave, Lisa and Meg (WOOF!)Did you find this review helpful?

My Husband, dog and I just returned home from what was the most relaxing vacation we have ever had. This IS the best house on the beach....the location can not be beat. The photos give you an idea of what to expect but even those can not do this place justice and there are no words to accurately describe it either....awesome. The kitchen has every tool/appliance you could ask for and more....this home is very well equipped. Aside from the groceries we brought over we wanted for nothing. Our little dog Happy had the best time running the beach and meeting all the other dogs....super dog friendly island! The owners Sari and Glen were wonderful and made the whole process a pleasure...truly great people. I would not only recommend this place to my family and friends I'm looking forward to going back sometime soon! Thank you for your warm hospitality. Sincerely, Russ, Cheryl and Happy the dog.Recommended for: Age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, girls getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing.
