Palm Island is a bridge-less, private barrier island, 7 miles long between Sarasota and Sanibel Island on Florida's Gulf Coast. Sugar sand beaches, beautiful harbors & lagoons and great fishing & shelling are accessed ONLY by a 3 minute car ferry ($55 round trip per car or $400 for book of 10 tickets) OR private boat ride. Complete list of ferry rates and schedules can be found at www.palmislandtransit.com.
With unpaved sandy roads and a relaxed 'Old Florida' atmosphere, our beaches are some of the most pristine and quiet in all of coastal Florida. There are no high rises blocking your gulf views; no street lights and only one, paved road that leads to the island’s only business: our island restaurant, Rum Bay. Primary mode of transportation is golf cart and it is highly recommended that you reserve a cart at the time of booking.
Because our house is located in an unusual destination type island, we have a STRICT cancellation policy. Most travelers need to plan ahead for this type of vacation so it is very difficult to rent the house again on short notice. Because of this we strongly advise you to obtain TRAVELER’S INSURANCE.
Jay and Carrie are full time island residents; available to serve you as needed. Their hands on approach, assure you round the clock, top notch guest services worthy of their stellar testimonials.
Paradise Cottage delivers a unique, island experience of relaxation only a remote private destination location can offer. So remarkable and “off the grid” it will be nearly impossible to leave.
IMPORTANT: Please be sure to read all House Rules and terms and conditions of the Rental Agreement before booking this property as they are strictly enforced.

Summary: The cottage had everything we needed and more, it was beautifully decorated, with a Caribbean Island vibe! Great location, very close to the beach and there is a dock for boating and fishing. The backyard area with the pool was so pretty, with lots of comfy chairs to sunbath or read a book. The whole property is a beautiful oasis! Jay and Carrie were fantastic hosts, they were quick to answer any questions we had and went above and beyond to help us with left behind medications. They had a wonderful welcoming basket of goodies, fruit and even a bottle of wine! The beaches are beautiful and uncrowded and we had a lot of fun exploring the island on our golf cart. It was nice to have a restaurant on the island, which was very good and reasonably priced. Be sure to visit the ice cream shop too! The island is quiet and the perfect get away. Thank you Jay and Carrie for a wonderful island vacation!
