About this property

50 steps to a seven mile ,not crowded beach. See our pics for views and decor!

Boca Grande is a seven mile long island in the gulf of Mexico accessible by bridge. Our condominium is only 50 steps from the water, has a great view of the gulf of Mexico and non crowded beach! We have access to the 7 mile walking beach. Our condo is fully furnished with many amenities. . . beach towels, beach chairs, Smart TV in family room and TV in most rooms. Modern, light decor to welcome you to your vacation! Lots of books for your reading pleasure, too. Be sure to pack a box for the many shells that you will find. . . Sand dollars, too!

Newer granite kitchen counters in a fully stocked kitchen to meet all of your needs for a quick meal or full dinner. We include a Keurig coffee machine, a crock pot, waffle maker and a 4 slice toaster for quick and easy breakfasts. Many sets of plates for appetizers or dinner on the lanai. Great dinners on the shaded lanai. . .

Unit has our own Wi-Fi so coverage and speed time should meet your expectations for work or pleasure. We provide a computer desk in family room for your comfort.

The views from our unit are exceptional. . . garden below, pool beyond and turquois waters ocean view. Unit offers shade in late afternoon which enables you to use lanai for early dinners. Unit # 141 is on the SUN side of the complex so you can enjoy sunning on our open air porch. Pls see the pictures that we've taken to provide a glimpse of the beauty outside your vacation condo.

The town is like Sanibel without all the people. There are no high rise buildings, and relatively few large condominiums. Our condo is on the best beach on the island.

The sunsets are spectacular, shelling is terrific, with sand dollars plentiful most of the year. The dolphins are regular visitors, the fishing in front of the condo is very good.

For bird watchers, the island is home to numerous osprey nests, and eagle nests are off island. Tarpon fishing at the end of the island in spring-summer is world famous. Several excellent golf courses nearby. The quaint shops carry beautiful merchandise.

Our smoke-free condo has newer appliances, new ceramic tile in most areas, wood floors in bedrooms, and a casual feeling to remind you that you're on vacation! It is a first floor, end unit so you have extra light , more relaxing breezes and easy entry with elevator or close to the stairs.

No walkway behind master bedroom guarantees privacy. Parking is under the building. Two porches, one open, one screened. Most meals are eaten outside on the lanai. Friends tell us a visit to the condo is like going to Hawaii, but for a lot less money.

Visitors regularly include celebrities. Katherine Hepburn came here for years. The Bush family has spent several Christmas holidays here, as have a number of movie stars. The island was used for the recent Denzel Washington movie 'Out of Time'.
If you'd like to enjoy dinner at the Gasparilla Inn, pls remember jacket is required for dinner, only. They will provide jackets upon request. Fabulous food and remember to take the Inn "kitchen tour" with Chef on Thursday or Sat.

Such a great secret.

We have been staying at Sea Oats for years (25). But just a few years ago we found out about this rental and now we won't go anywhere else. We really love this side of the building, has great shade for those HOT days. It's clean and fresh. Plus I love the decor. Even the beds are comfortable. Thank you so much Joy for such a great find on a great Island.

Favorite place in Florida and Favorite place to stay

We have been renting at the sea oats for over 30 years and continue to love it there for the quiet and the perfect beach. The condo was nice, comfortable and well appointed. The hosts were extremely responsive and friendly when we had any questions. Our only complaint would be that some things are in disrepair, untidy (ie game drawer) and it could have been a bit cleaner. But overall the positive definitely outweighed these minor factors.

A Tradition Continues

For the past 30 years our family has been going to the island for our summer vacation. We have stayed at this location most of those years. This unit is at the top of the list. It has a very well equipped kitchen and plenty of linens...all the necessities for a great stay. The owners are great to work with as they want your stay to be special. The price is right, too. Thanks for another great year!

Beautiful Boca Condo

Having stayed in condo's at Sea Oats previously, this condo certainly meets and exceeds most other rentals. The property was clean and very well appointed with every amenity you could think of. Our weather was perfect (as is always the case in Boca Grande), the beach was beautiful and we found some awesome shells. Dealing with Joy was as easy as can be and the price was definitely more than fair for the spectacular location. Our only disappointment was that we had to leave. We will definitely be visiting again!! Thanks again!

I have been fortunate to stay at this beautiful condo twice and look forward to going back! The complex is beautiful, clean and the staff very accomodating. The condo is an oasis, has a perfect view, and if you can imagine more beautiful than the pictures! My husband said that Boca Grande is as beautiful as Hawaii without the long flight. I would highly recommend this condo to my family and best of friends. The island is safe, quiet and quaint. My husband says the fishing is fantastic, however I prefer the spa, shopping, shelling and fun lunches in town. When you visit, don't miss the shrimp boat and make sure to rent a bicycle!

Sea Oats in September

My husband and I are here with our son, his wife and their almost three-year old daughter. We have enjoyed a wonderful week in this beautiful condo. Our granddaughter has made great strides in her swimming due to the pool on the property. Beach access is wonderful. The condo is as beautiful and comfortable as the photographs portray. And the grounds are immaculate. There is nothing we would change about the condo or Sea Oats. Joy was very easy and pleasant to work with. We highly recommend this condo!!!

Wonderfully Beautiful!

My husband and I and our three adult daughters had a completely restful, easy stay at Sea Oats in this beautifully furnished condo. The two patios were used every morning and evening and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything we could imagine using during our stay. The beach chairs were a big help and the complex was well-kept. The parking underneath the first floor unit was extremely easy and the one set of stairs was simple and brought us directly to our unit. The bedrooms were comfortable and both bathrooms were updated and very nice with spa touches. There was plenty of storage in the closets as well as the bedroom dressers, and the bathrooms both had lots of cabinet space for our items. In addition, we had lots of bath towels to use. The condo was in great condition, seemed freshly painted and all the furniture was gorgeous. As an Interior Designer, I admired how they chose to furnish their home. It is truly a little piece of heaven with a view to the pool and beach beyond. We are hoping to visit again! Sea Oats is a short 20 minute bike ride to town and the kids loved our rides in the golf cart we rented. Very easy and relaxing vacation! Owners were extremely responsive too. All in all a 10/10

Peaceful Paradise

Let me first say, we have been coming to the gulf islands since 1978. Needless to say, we have rented a lot of different properties. This condo, by far is the loveliest we have ever rented. The photos are beautiful, but do not do it justice. The decor is light, airy, with a coastal vibe. The interior is very thoughtfully done for maximum relaxation, but with a calming atmosphere. The kitchen is fully equipped to handle any cooking task. Any possible utensil you could want is there, including cookware. The bath is fully stocked with fluffy towels, beach towels, bath rugs and vanity mirrors. There are enough beach chairs and accessories that you don't need to go purchase or rent anything. The beach was quiet and secluded; quite I few days we were the only people on the beach. So quiet, so relaxing! The pool is lovely, clean, with many chairs and lounges. Definitely rent a golf cart to run up and down the path to restaurants, shopping and visit the 2 lighthouses. Everyone at the realty office was great. Joy is; well a "joy" to work with. From the moment I placed the reservation, Joy was communicating with me, finding out what questioned I may have and giving information on restaurants, rentals, etc. Overall, we had a spectacular time and can not wait to return!

Gasparilla Island did not disappoint. This was our first time to the island. And our condo helped to make it a dream vacation. It had recently been renovated due to hurricane damage and was absolutely stunning. Was furnished with everything you need for a comfortable stay and to cook in a couple of times like we did. Peggie at the front desk was easy to communicate with and answer any questions we had.

Boca Grande Spring Vacation

This was our first trip to Boca Grande after many years vacationing in Siesta Key. What a fabulous surprise. Even with evidence all around of the destruction caused by Hurricane Ian, Boca Grande is a little slice of Heaven. Sea Oats 141 was the perfect rental with plenty of space, great views, and all of the amenities. This was the perfect place to relax, enjoy some peace and quiet, and experience a beach with only a few people, abundant shells, and gorgeous sunsets. While there are a limited number of restaurants on the island, all were excellent! I do suggest you get a golf cart as it just enhances the experience.

About the host

Hosted by Joy Flaherty

Host profile image
Dennis and I are from MN and Mich (UP) and currently live in Davenport, Iowa. We always think of ourselves as Florida people with one foot on the beaches at Boca! We love to walk on the 7 mile beach and bike to the Inlet for breakfast by the water. We had a very SPECIAL guest who walked on the beach with us in Jan 2015! Feel free to ask about it!

Why they chose this property

We visited Florida many times to see my Mom, Eddy, who spent the winters in Pt Charlotte. One day, we visited the small island of Boca Grande and fell in love! We purchased our first Boca property in 1985.
We love the 'old Florida feel' with it's slower pace to enjoy all of nature's beauty. Rent bikes or a golf cart and not have to use your car for the whole vaca . . . truly relaxing!

What makes this property unique

Our unit is a CORNER on the 'sun' side of the building so you will be able to enjoy the Florida sunshine all day and shade in late afternoon . . . just in time for dinner on the lanai! We have screens on all doors to provide fresh ocean breezes . . . we love to turn off the air conditioning and enjoy the fresh breezes.

Our condo is on the first floor and convenient to the steps to get to the beautiful water, beaches and even the golf cart charging area~ rent a cart for your vaca! The building also offers elevators for ease of moving in and out.

I love to cook you can be sure that we offer a well stocked kitchen with granite counters, a pantry for your storage and colorful Fiesta Ware dishes. Guests always comment on our well stocked kitchen with lots of flatware, dishes and glasses.

We try to offer all of the amenities for your home away from home vacation. Hair dryers, lots of beach towels, make up mirrors, cozy cover-ups and leather couches which help to cool you off after a day in the sun.

We 'fluff up' our unit on a regular basis to insure your every comfort. We added wood floors in bedrooms and updated our master bath w special walk in shower , raised commode and lots of natural stone. Our guest bath and bedroom has a queen bed and beach décor with horizontal striped walls, new bath fixtures , and a raised
commode.
We have a 50" smart TV which you can use with your Netflix account, DEDICATED internet for the best connection, leather sofas and a special feeling. . . "Welcome to our condo , a place to relax, enjoy the beach and the beauty of Boca."
Many thanks for sharing our special place.
