Description from owner

Description

Our Secluded Private Island Location and Stunning Tropical Atmosphere is combined with a Large Newly renovated Southern Plantation Home sitting directly on sparkling crystal waters! Once built as a Health Spa and Resort, this Tropical Estate features Exquisite furnishings along with King beds done in designer luxury linens. Second floor bedrooms have waterfront verandahs overlooking the Large lush palms and spectacular waterfront views along with marble bathrooms that are elegantly appointed with Lanikai Shower Spas. Old fashioned Florida Front Porch Living! Our large wrap around White Wicker front porch can comfortably fit 12 people for dinner al fresco or just a little lounging while gazing at the water or watching y’all paddle by in our kayaks. A perfect respite for those looking to get out of the public eye. Actor, Writer, Artist or just a family or corporate compound get away! Our tropical paradise conjures inspiration here to write, sculpt or paint even if you are not an Artisit! Hemingway would have loved it here! A Corporate Retreat for those looking to restore and relax while teaching and fishing!! Perfect Florida weather can be experienced from our Olde Florida front porch overlooking the water. Tranquil Lapping waters and the sounds of nature and fish jumping will be your music!

The Large lawns extend to the water with many quiet nooks to sit and read, sun or dine by the water. The Boat House is a place to sit and watch the fish, read, lay on the hammock and watch the large birds like herons, egrets, king fishers and sand hill cranes. As day turns into night, the realm of your imagination is invigorated watching the painted sky as the sun sets from fiery orange to midnight purple illuminating the ambient clouds and sky over the Gulf to a colorful personal portrait for you in a translucent and unique way. Big sky over the Florida Gulf gives you miles of dazzling stars each night! Floridas perfect weather, gentle waves and glorious sunsets can be experienced right from our large white wicker front porch. Get in touch with your thoughts and your heart. A fantastic peaceful place for the mind to rest or be completely rejuvenated on this island resort originally built as a Health Resort and Spa. This 6 acre Island Tropical Paradise has the look and feel of the Tropics, yet you are connected to our secure gated estate by our two gated drives. No need to access us by boat but you certainly can! Kayaking is a must while here. Our Outdoor Lifestyle will draw you in to see the nature preserves all around you. Wake up to Dolphins while you sip your morning coffee, and Manatees visit in the afternoon. Laugh at the hilarious pelicans diving for their lunch!! You will feel completely disconnected to the world and may feel as you have stepped back in time while feeling the harmony of the natural surroundings of our property and thousands of acres of nature coast here around our secluded property. Fresh Springs feed into the Gulf of Mexico making abundant fishing and scalloping a treat! Large Mature Palm Trees of many species grace our Island Paradise! Magnificent and abundant lush vegetation grow so naturally here! Large Birds of Paradise, clusters of Bamboo, Bouganvilla, Gardenias, Hibiscus, Lavendar and the Olde feeling of Florida under our large hanging Live Oaks gives this island a swanky feel! 6 Bedrooms all with King sized beds, one with a Queen sized bed all bedrooms have their en suite bathrooms (except one). The second floor bedrooms have private verandahs overlooking the water. The treasure that we were blessed to have found should be shared with others! The Island is surrounded by water on all sides, except for the drive where you are able to get on without the use of a boat. For those that want to have exclusion and privacy, this is the place! The lanai: A beautiful place to spend your time.

The sound of birds is not the only thing that you will hear other than the fish jumping!

When we tell you that you will see Dolphins, Manatees and Bald Eagles while you sit on the Florida Plantation style front porch, we mean it! Mothers Day was a treat for me as a Mother and her baby Dophin came to our water steps and spent an hour swimming back and forth enjoying our company as much as we enjoyed theirs.

* St. Regis Lanai - Large Outdoor Pool is Great for Entertaining!

Large screened outdoor Lanai Lounge with inground pool, once built for a guitarist and shaped like a guitar, palms, lounge chairs, Large Covered Round Lounge Bed for two! 6 large inground umbrellas, great sun and shade, gas grille, water toys. Run around all day and never go inside! Surrounded by lush vegetation, hibiscus galore!

Getting around

A car is needed to explore and adventure! Some like to rent jeeps and go off road with them here. Many beaches and quiet natural areas to explore!

Interaction with guest

My Chef partner and I are available here on the Island for you 24/7. If you should have any needs. We are dedicated to you having fun here with "No Worries" kind of attitude! Should you run out of propane for your grill or need air in your floatie.....we are here to help! We also have prepared a large photo book of where to go and what to do other than Busch Gardens and Disney. We like to suggest Off The Beaten Path places that you may have never got to experience unless you lived here. Being in the Chef's World we are picky and will send you to tried and true restaurants, both laid back good eating places as well as white linen and up scale. We invite our guests to write what they like and need and pay attention to details.
