Very spacious and plenty of room for sleeping. It is super convenient to the beach and close to the bay. We loved the screened porch and having two living room spaces. The beach at LGI was more beautiful than I imaged! We collected shells, hunted for sharks teeth and watched the amazing sunsets daily! The home was beautiful and had everything that we could possibly need with the exception of a cookie sheet & muffin pans. Pirates water taxi was easy to book and super friendly. We also had a golf cart meet us at the dock to help get our groceries and luggage to the house! We will definetly return to the Barefoot Bungalow! \*\*\*only negative about LGI is the mosquitos! Bring Skin So Soft and other bug sprays and you will be fine. ##### ashley m.

Jul 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house, great host, wonderful island This is a beautifully decorated and comfortable home in a perfect spot about 100 yards from the beach or docks. We loved the kitchen/family room where we could all be together while prepping meals and in the late evenings. We ate in the screened in porch (really important given the big situation in late July) with a beautiful view and played family games in the late afternoon during quick storms.This host is wonderful. Warm, responsive and generous. We had the pleasure of meeting her on our way into the island and you can tell she truly cares about your experience, the island and sharing it with others. The house is well stocked and has pretty much all you need for your stay which is important because there’s no where to grab them from in a pinch. LGI is a dream of you’re looking for a (semi, you still have internet and cell service) complete break from the busyness and distractions of mainland. The natural beaches are glorious and filled with shells and wildlife - with very few people to distract. Don’t miss the glorious sunsets on the beach, which was my favorite part of our stay. The people on the island are also wonderful and helpful. We particularly enjoyed the folks at the golf cart rental place who were kind and really helpful to my elderly parents. The meal planning and groceries require some pre thought as there are no stores on the island although groceries can be delivered which is helpful and I’d recommend having them delivered ##### Meredith L.

Dec 31, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location for family vacation Great location on beautiful quiet island. Walking distance to a great beach with lots of shells. Responsive host. Easily accommodated our family of 6 with plenty of room. Loved the screened in lanai. Great to have a place with a nice large kitchen and full sized laundry machine dryer and dishwasher. There are no roads to the island so you will either need to pay for water taxi service back and forth from the island to mainland or rent your own boat for your stay. We rented a boat for the week and had a ton of fun. Host said the regular faucet tap water was not potable water, but said that the fridge has a filter which then she said made the fridge water drinkable. There is not garbage service at the property, so it is basically pack in and pack out and then you just pay for garbage disposal when you take it back to the mainland. The AC worked well and ceiling fans in each room. Liked that it had a separate family room and living room each with its own TV to allow people to spread out during our week vacation. Nice comfortable beds, good quality sheets and towels. We had a great stay and would highly recommend this place for a family vacation. ##### Tricia B.

We rented a boat to get to and from the island and to fish during our stay and the walk to the house from the shared dock was short and manageable, even with four small children. It was also a short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower was great for washing the sand off before going into the house and the screened porch was nice for eating meals and enjoying the peace and quiet of the island. The house is stocked with everything you could need during your stay besides groceries, which we picked up on the mainland before heading to the island. We all enjoyed the beach and the kids loved the abundance of shells. The slow pace of the island was amazing and we had an excellent time! Would definitely stay here again! ##### Joe W.

Everyone was super friendly. When shuttling to the island from the airport, use Salty Girls transportation. They set up the water taxi and made getting groceries so easy! We will be doing this vacation again! ##### Jennifer A. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carole T.

Vivian's place is absolutely wonderful. Everything that you could possibly need for a relaxing stay is included in the house. You only need to bring clothes, maybe a book (if reading is your thing), and have a method to get groceries to the house. The three beds (which were very comfortable) in the house provided plenty of comfortable sleeping areas for the three of us during our stay. Vivian was very quick to respond to any of our questions about the house, the island, or transportation needs before and during our stay. The 2-3 minute walk to the beach from the house was wonderful. The outdoor shower was perfect for us to either rinse off the day or welcome the morning. We will be coming back! ##### Katie T.

We had everything we needed plus much more! The most relaxing weekend! Found loads of shark teeth, rented and had a wonderful day kayaking, even caught a couple fish :-). Scheduling and traveling by pirates taxi was slight challenge but would not deter us from coming again or recommending. ##### Susan A. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### todd b.

Spending time on Little Gasparilla was a real treat if you enjoy beautiful sunrises & sunsets. Fabulous walks on the beach enjoying the smell & breeze of the salty seas. The beach bungalow offers all the amenities you need for an opportunity to totally relax while on the island. This bungalow is a very short walk to the beach or the dock. Really no need to rent a golf cart from this location since everything you need is in walking distance. To top off the trip, as we are avid boaters - we rented a boat that was delivered to our dock from "weekly boat rentals". We had a fantastic time boating to several island destinations. Keep in mind if you do not rent a boat - contact "Pirate Water taxi" to make you way to the island! Remember - your on a remote island - be prepared to get all your groceries - cocktail items - beach wear etc. We made fantastic memories! ##### todd b.
