Blissfully Serene Palm Cottage In Town and 2 Blocks from Beach

A few short blocks from the beach and one block from town make this rare cottage located in the Historic District of Boca Grande the perfect get-away. Situated on an over sized property, this sunny home has recently been updated (most recently with a brand new beautiful kitchen... including a gas stove, stainless steel refrigerator, farm house sink, etc.). This house has been meticulously maintained and everything inside the home is brand new, including the furniture, linens, and appliances. The roomy master suite and bath has its own wing which allows for privacy while the two guest bedrooms and bath are on the opposite side of the cottage. Enjoy the spacious open living/kitchen/dining area (hard wood floors throughout the house), the wonderful breeze off the ocean on the front porch or the privacy of the beautifully landscaped back yard surrounded by mature native mango, kumquat, surnaim cherry and black olive trees.

Fantastic "cottage'!

My family and I stayed at this cottage while attending a wedding at The Gasparilla Inn. The location couldn't have been better, but more important, the house was impeccable! Very clean, lovely decor, and very accomodating for our family of 5. Beds, sofas, day-beds all very comfy with lovely linens and kitchen is very well appointed. Would definitely stay there again!

Charming in Boca

We loved the location of the house, just a few blocks to the beach. We loved our morning walks to the bakery. The house is cute and charming - perfect for our young family (kids 1.5 and 3.5)! Communication with Susan was great. We would definitely return to the house.

The perfect island getaway

What a charming home in the historic district offering the perfect location for bike rides to dinner and morning strolls to the beach. We had everything we needed and more. The house is spacious and warm filled with beautiful furnishings, comfortable bedding and an inviting kitchen when a stray summer squall calls for a quiet evening in. Susan couldn’t have made us feel more welcome from the moment we booked. We can’t wait to return!

Boca Grande Perfection – A True Island Gem

I’ve been coming to Boca Grande since I was a kid and have stayed at over 80 different properties on the island. Without a doubt, this one tops them all.The location is unbeatable—everything is just a quick golf cart ride or short walk away. We parked the car when we arrived and never touched it again. From breakfast at The Outlet to dinners at The Temptation (maybe one too many—pretty sure I gave myself gout), to a scenic boat trip to Cabbage Key, everything we love about Boca was right at our fingertips.The home itself is the perfect size—comfortable, stylish, and full of that old Florida charm. Throughout the week, I brought in different groups of friends so each could experience what makes this place so special. It’s a little slice of heaven that takes you back to a better time.Susan was outstanding to work with—thoughtful, responsive, and on top of every detail. She made check-in a breeze and helped ensure our stay was effortless from start to finish.We jumped 47 tarpon this week, laughed until it hurt, and made memories I’ll never forget. Honestly, if I could rent this place all summer, I would. I’m even hesitant to share how amazing it is because part of me wants to keep it all to myself—but it’s just too good not to share.

Wow!!

The home was amazing! It had everything we needed. It is located in the heart of the village of Boca Grande. Everything is a short walk away (the beautiful beach, shopping, restaurants). If you want to enjoy the best of Boca Grande, this is your place! If 6 stars was an option that is what I would pick. Thank you to Susan for allowing us to stay at her property. We plan to return!!
