Where to Stay on Gasparilla Island 🌴

Dreaming of a peaceful Florida island getaway? Gasparilla Island is the perfect place to slow down and soak up Old Florida charm.

Choose a beachfront VRBO if you want to wake up just steps from the Gulf, enjoy your own private space, and take in breathtaking sunsets from your porch. If you’re looking for timeless elegance, treat yourself to a stay at the historic Gasparilla Inn, a beloved landmark known for its classic charm, impeccable service, and unforgettable island atmosphere.

One of the island’s best-kept secrets? After crossing the bridge off of Gasparilla Island, continue along the waterfront until you reach one of the local marinas. Rent a boat for the day and explore turquoise waters, secluded beaches, hidden sandbars, and incredible fishing. There’s no better way to experience the beauty of Southwest Florida!

Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a family vacation, or a relaxing weekend by the beach, Gasparilla Island is a destination you’ll want to visit again and again.

The Road to Hana isn’t just a drive—it’s an experience. 🌿🌺 Every waterfall, black sand beach, bamboo forest, and ocean overlook feels like stepping into a postcard. Yes, it’s a little expensive, but for us, the memories and breathtaking views were worth every penny. Important tip: skip driving yourself. The road has different road rules, over 600 curves and dozens of one-lane bridges, so being a passenger lets you actually enjoy the scenery, take photos, and relax instead of focusing on the road. Do not drive it at night at all get way off the road before nightfall.
If Maui is on your bucket list, the Road to Hana should be number 1.

To Maui! 🐠⛵
Our first full day in Maui was all about exploring the incredible ocean life! We spent the morning at the Maui Ocean Center, getting up close with sea turtles, reef fish, and sharks. 🐢🌊
Next, we made a stop at Leoda’s Kitchen and Pie Shop to enjoy one of Maui’s famous homemade pies. 🥧 Every bite lived up to the hype and was the perfect island treat!
We ended the day with a sunset dinner catamaran cruise across the Pacific. Great food, ocean breezes, and unforgettable views made for another magical Maui evening.
