The host was amazing! They were extremely communicative, friendly, and responsive. Check-in was smooth, and they made sure we had everything we needed. The home was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. They went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great experience!
The property is beautiful, well-maintained, and equipped with everything you need.There are several beaches close by, and there are beach chairs and a cooler you can borrow for a day at the beach.The property is clean, spacious, and includes your own personal hot tub.The host is very quick to respond to any questions we had during our stay.
We love staying at this villa. The room was spotless. The hot tub was spotless and private. Alex is amazing and will do whatever he can to make sure your stay is fantastic. Which is greatly appreciated when you’re spending your saved up vacation money for the one week out of the year on the place you pick to stay. The villa is pet friendly, but be aware that there are no grassy areas inside the villa. The grounds are white stones and I wouldn’t let my dog use that area as a bathroom because it’s just not fair for the other guests. There is a grassy area next to the parking lot that is easy to use. If you have a dog that needs to walk, you can continue down the wide sidewalk with grassy areas on each side. It is a very safe neighborhood and I walked my dog even at night. My only fear were the “no-see-um” bugs that bite at you! We were unfamiliar with the area and went to four different beaches. I have to recommend going to Gasparilla Island and going to the Boca Grande Beach. So quiet and not crowded. Best beach out of all of the ones we went to. You need 6.00 cash or credit card for the bridge toll. They don’t do EZpass or pay by plate. I would definitely recommend staying here to my friends and family. Bring your own shower supplies they have everything else you need. Also very handy laundry room with free washer and dryers. Just bring your own detergent. We weren’t expecting to use it, but we came home full of sand and the laundry room was a bonus!Thank you Alex!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo had everything we needed and the location was perfect. You can tell they put a lot of thought into making their guests stay the best possible.
Excellent - the care of the property is top notch. Loved having a hot tub and my dog Barnacle loved meeting and greeting other guests. Highly recommend - would stay again!Becca

Super cute, quiet private property. Loved the hot tub, the bikes and extremely quick responses. I would highly recommend this place and would book again!
What a great way to spend a long weekend with friends. Nice accommodations and wonderful outdoor space. Perfect for a group looking to rent several of the units. Look forward to coming again.
We stayed here during a recent trip to visit my in-laws and it was just wonderful. It was perfect for our family and we so enjoyed all the outdoor areas. Various members of our family were often found lounging outside, reading or enjoying a snack. The spa was perfect after a long day. Inside was clean and comfortable. Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

About the host
Hosted by The Pura Vida
After traveling many places we found the last remaining piece of Old Florida left. Palm Island and Placida or also known as the Cape Haze Peninsula, is so unknown to many people that we decided to invite you to discover the hidden gem. The happiest people in the world life the Pura Vida so we decided to create a little version under the Florida sun with the Caribbean charme.
Why they chose this property
We invite you to life the Pura Vida and enjoy your Hot Tub surrounded by curtains in the middle of the tropical garden. Enjoy your morning coffee sitting under a Tiki roof. Gateway to Palm Island and the hidden beaches covered with shells and shark teeth.
What makes this property unique
Every drink taste better under a Tiki roof.
