A Cool Change

Basic (1 shown)A Cool Change is your laid-back island home base — the kind of place where flip-flops stay sandy, sunsets become your nightly routine, and family memories just kinda happen on their own.
Just a quick stroll from Dock 75 (where the water taxi drops you into island time), you’re also only minutes from the private boardwalk leading to Little Gasparilla’s wide, sugar-sand beach. Tucked along Rum Runner Road — one of the island’s prettiest tropical lanes — this home sits cozy inside a lush hammock of palms, sea grapes, and old Florida charm. It’s quiet, private, and pure LGI magic.
Inside, you still get your modern comforts. High-speed Starlink Wi-Fi keeps you connected (if you want to be), and big TVs in both main bedrooms plus the living room mean movie nights, game days, or rainy-day streaming are always an option.
Sleeping arrangements are easy and family-friendly:
• Master suite with a comfy king bed
• Guest bedroom with a queen
• Third bedroom with two bunk beds — perfect for kids, cousins, or whoever lost the coin flip
Downstairs is where island living really kicks in. There’s a covered deck for shady lounging, storytelling, and post-beach snacks, plus a big outdoor shower to rinse off salt, sand, and sunscreen after a day chasing dolphins, fishing, or beachcombing. You’ll also have a full-size washer and dryer — because sandy towels happen.
Boaters will love the complimentary dockage at Dock 78 or 79, with plenty of space and a large parking area for your golf cart. You’ll also have access to Gaspar’s Hideaway’s private beach boardwalk — another easy path to toes-in-the-sand time.
And because this is real island living — the owners include kayaks and paddle boards so you can explore canals, watch for manatees, or sneak out for a peaceful sunrise paddle.
A Cool Change isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a place to slow down, soak up the island, and live the Little Gasparilla way.
