How do I get around?
- The island is only seven miles long, making it really easy to get around.
- Free Island Trolley: Runs Daily from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, with pickups every 20-30 minutes. (3 blocks, 2-minute walk)
- Bicycles: There are several options to rent bikes on the island, the closest is less than 10-minute walk
- Motor Vehicles*: The island is filled with people driving with the wind in their hair! There are several options to rent golf carts, scooters and more.
- *Due to limited parking space, we encourage you to consider sharing rentals with other travelers. For this reason, we ask that you not book any rentals until you have arrived.
Can I rent a car?
- Who needs a car on the beach?! Your retreat package includes a round-trip shuttle service to and from the Tampa International Airport (see schedule for pickup time), not only because we want to encourage ridesharing, but also because there is very limited parking space available.
- Because the island is so small, it’s really easy to get around without a car (see previous FAQ).
- However, if you would still prefer to rent a car, please email us before renting a vehicle so we confirm a parking spot is available and let you know if other travelers are interested in co-renting a vehicle. Failure to inform us prior to arrival may result in additional charges and inconvenient parking.
Will I have access to a kitchen?
- If you’re staying in one of the bungalows, yes. If you are staying in the Beach House, kitchen access will be limited, as it is where all meals will be prepared.
- Bungalow A has a small kitchenette
- Bungalow B has a large kitchen
- Bungalows will be stocked with coffee, coffee filters, half & half, sugar, and stevia for you to prepare your own coffee. Coffee will be prepared every morning in the Beach House. You are welcome to bring snacks and a few fridge items.
