Absolutely Amazing Atmosphere! All the STARS!!! Book it now because this place is truly a gem! The 2 bdrm unit we booked was much larger than expected, we could have easily slept 2-4 more people. Extremely well appointed the owners have thought of everything; even bathrobes for your PRIVATE hot tub! My husband and I were in desperate need of a respite and this property provided EXACTLY what we were looking for; it's heavenly! You will not regret booking; unless you only stay one day! We definitely did not want to leave and will return here every time we are in the area. Many thanks to Katja and her husband for creating this paradise!

My husband and I stayed here for the month of February 2024 and had a restful and truly enjoyable experience. The Hosts were visible on the property numerous times and extremely friendly and helpful. The apartment was as viewed on VRBO… no surprises. We brought our dog and she, too, had the best time! We hope to return! The common area they created to relax in was filled with beautiful palm trees, fruit bearing trees and totally fenced in… a true oasis!

My best friend and I wanted to do a girls getaway vacation. We had no definite plans we just knew we want sand sun and fun. Although this location is not right on the beach, it is centrally located and you can pick a different beach each day!! We loved the apartment! Very clean and updated and we also had our very own private hot tub. We will definitely be back and we recommend this Little Pice of Paradise!

Really cute, quaint, quiet and private property in a great, safe location. We stayed on the second floor. The place was very clean and stocked with basic amenities. The owners manage the property and live next door. They are super nice and accommodating, coming over to introduce themselves and check to make sure all is well. Also very responsive through email and text. Every morning we walked or ran on the nice wide path that runs up and down the main road and we enjoyed the hot tub at the end of each day. There are many restaurants and beaches options within a 30 minute drive or less. Some were within walking distance. There is a grocery store 2 miles away. We spent most of our days checking out the different beaches. Boca Grande being our favorite. I would definitely recommend this property and will stay here again if we are in the area!

Florida Beach Trip

Florida Beach Trip

We had a great time staying here. The beach at palm island was great, though I'd recommend driving onto the ferry and driving on the island if you actually want to go to the beach. The island was fairly spread out and it would have been difficult to get around it without a car. But overall the trip was great, and we enjoyed our dinners at Leverocks and Nicolas.

Incredible experience!

Incredible experience!

We had such a great time staying a Pura Vida! We didn’t know much about the area other than it was a quiet part of SW FL. It turns out, there’s easy access to Boca Grande, such a picturesque island with a preppy Key West feel, Palm Island, a quiet family-oriented island with great beaches, and Manasota Key. We didn’t have a car (would recommend one), but we are active and easily biked back and forth to Boca Grande (about 45 minutes one way) and took our bikes across the ferry to Palm Island (a 1 minute ride across the street, then your choice of beach within 1-5 minutes). There are bikes to rent at Pura Vida, making it super convenient. The property itself is awesome! It’s truly an oasis with a beautiful topical garden courtyard with grills, ample seating, hammocks, and calming music. Our personal hot tub was dope! The apartment is immaculate. It looks brand new! We had everything we needed to cook, hang out, and relax. Alex and Katja are super lovely people. They were immediately responsive to questions and gave us tons of local recommendations. We highly recommend this place and have already told our family to book!

This place was so nice. Everything we needed was thought out. Our own private Jacuzzi too! The landlords were so sweet and were constantly making sure we had what we needed and advice on where to go to the beaches and out to dinner! We wanted to stay another 2 weeks but they were full for the next month and a half. Will definantly go here again.
