About this property

Welcome to THE HIVE. A hub for peace and relaxation. DIRECT GULF views

  • The Hive
    Welcome to The Hive, a custom Gulf front retreat on Little Gasparilla Island. Hurricane renovations are complete, and this peaceful home is ready for guests seeking panoramic water views, memorable sunsets, and the timeless charm of Old Florida. Step from the home to the sandy shoreline, relax on the balcony to the sound of the waves, or gather in the spacious family kitchen after a day at the beach.
    Flexible Accommodations
    Choose the space that fits your getaway. The Hive may be rented as a one bedroom main unit or as a three bedroom home accommodating up to six guests. Each bedroom has a queen bed and private full bath. The second and third bedrooms are private suites with their own coffee bar and mini refrigerator, making the layout ideal for couples, families, or friends traveling together.
    Amenities
    Enjoy WiFi, air conditioning, linens, a washer and dryer, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, blender, dishes and utensils, charcoal grill, outdoor shower, fishing access, and use of the community dock. Water is available at the dock, but power is not.
    Island Experience
    Little Gasparilla is a bridgeless barrier island accessible only by private boat, water taxi, or ferry. Far from crowded beaches and traffic, days here are made for collecting shells, enjoying gentle Gulf breezes, fishing in Southwest Florida waters, and watching the sun set over the Gulf.
    Rental Details
    Pets are welcome with owner approval. A nonrefundable pet fee applies per pet, and breed or size restrictions may apply. A refundable security deposit of $500 is required. Additional charges include 12 percent tax, cleaning and reservation fees, and a 3 percent credit card processing fee. The processing fee is waived for check payments. Smoking is not permitted.
    Stay for a week and remember it for a lifetime. Book The Hive directly with Tarpon Real Estate to avoid added third party service fees and enjoy more value from your Gulf front escape. Reserve your island getaway today.
