South Florida Hidden Gem

Palm Island/Don Pedro island is a hidden gem. The property was well equipped. I appreciate the host supplying a beach umbrella and chairs. Kayaks and paddle boards were a plus. We will be back. Tom was very responsive.

Birthday Vacation

Tom’s condo was great for a nice relaxing beach getaway. He’s great with communication and supplies pretty much everything you could need. Just pack clothes & food, everything else is there. The only thing that would’ve been nice would be a couch or daybed on the screened patio to lay outside and read/nap and listen to the waves. We also loved that we were able to bring our dog with us.

Perfect getaway

Quiet, clean, with everything we needed. Comfortable beds, plenty of kitchen supplies to cook for a big family. Loved the kayaks and stand up paddle boards, the beach chairs and sand toys. Felt like a private beach, right outside your door. Saw dolphins, sea turtle, and rays in the ocean. Lots of sea shells and shark teeth to collect on the beach. Definite must for a family.

Best equipped rental we’ve ever had!

Owner has done a great job with this property. Not only is it direct gulf front but there are 2 kayaks, 2 Stand Up Paddleboards, beach chairs, an umbrella and more. We’ve been coming to the island for 10+ years and this is by far the most well equipped rental! Thanks so much! We hope to be back very soon!

We'll Be Back!

Tom's place was as described and better. Kitchen had everything we needed, beach chairs were comfy, etc. It had everything we needed and more. We loved the 3 decks, watched the sunset each night from the top deck, then the stars. We relaxed late in the afternoon on the bottom deck in comfortable chairs in the shade and enjoyed the warm breeze. My husband was really into finding shark teeth and there were plenty. We saw a manatee swimming by, dolphins in the evening. Tom was very helpful and responded to any questions we had promptly. Beach was never crowded. We hope to come back and if we do, we'll stay here if it's available!

Little piece of Heaven

Let me start by saying that I’m not one to leave ratings, my husband is, but I HAD TO leave a rating for this place! It beat my expectations and fulfilled our need for relaxation and tranquility. I went with my parents, husband, and 3 and 4 year old toddlers. When I tell you that WE ALL had an amazing time, I mean it. This house was right on the beach and had all the amenities needed, from washer/dryer to pots and pans and even paddle boards and kayaks! Tom and Barbara were amazing with their hospitality and quick replies to texts. My family and I are already excited to come back next summer and enjoy it all over again! We were able to find shark teeth and watch sea turtles at the shore. I love making memories with my family and I know this trip is one I’ll remember forever. I wish I could be selfish and keep this place to myself, but it’s too nice not to share! ☺️☺️ Definitely recommended 1000% !

Paradise Island

The pictures do not do this place justice! The place is beautiful and well accommodated! Tom is absolutely wonderful, very helpful and quick to respond to anything we needed. We loved living the island life for and cannot wait to go back. You will not be disappointed if you book this place! If you’re looking for rest, relaxation and right on the beach, this is the place for you.

Amazing Location and house

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. The owner is very responsive and thoughtful. While much of the island is still recovering from the hurricane, this property is in great shape and is incredibly beautiful. It is LITERALLY right on the beach and has paddle boards and kayaks. In addition, you will find beach chairs/umbrellas/towels and a grill. I can't say enough good things about the property and our vacation experience!!

Fantastic Family Vacation

This unit had everything we needed for our family of five with children ages three, eleven and fourteen. Beautiful, clear SWFL Gulf water. The chairs, umbrella, bikes, kayaks and paddle boards were a really nice addition. We were blown away at how close the unit is to the ocean, it is even closer than it appears in the pictures. The beach was not crowded at all, neither was the entire island. We only saw one other family at the community pool all week so we basically had it to ourselves. Amazing sunsets from the porch or the beach. We saw dolphins everyday. Our family really enjoyed our time on this island and this unit was perfect for us. The host, Tom, was the best I have encountered through VRBO. Tom proactively provided information and replied immediately to any questions I had. We will definitely be back.

Getaway and relax!

If you want a place right on the beach, with hardly any people, no traffic at all, pet friendly, all the amenities of home and absolutely nothing to do but enjoy the sea, sun and tranquility. Then this is the place. Go biking, kayaking, paddleboarding, walking/running/jogging, do some shelling or just enjoy the views, the sunsets, sunrises and the stars at night. Watch the little turtle hatchlings run to the sea on a clear moonlit night and just unplug and unwind. If you are looking for nightlife or shopping or sightseeing then this is not the place for you. But it was exactly what we had inagined and were looking for and we will definitely be back.

This was an island dream. The property was gorgeous and had everything we needed to enjoy our time away from home. It made packing and traveling simple as we did not have to bring anything but our bathing suits and clothes. You literally have the beach at your back door.

Wonderful Respite

Our stay at Tom’s place was phenomenal. It was well-appointed, and had everything we could want for the beach. Tom’s communication with us was prompt and helpful. He even checked in with us at the beginning to see how everything was going! This location is remote and beautiful. Make sure you get all your groceries on the other side of the ferry. Also, as you drive down the street to approach the property, the addresses can be a bit confusing. There is a “Don Pedro Colony” sign on the right, but it is partially covered-up by bushes, so be on the look-out. Tom is an exceptional host with a great spot on a quiet beach. We can’t wait to come back!
