Cloud 9 on the beach - Little Gasparilla Island! Your vacation destination to relax & enjoy life at I fell in love with everything about the island.

In 2008, my boyfriend brought me to Little Gasparilla Island for the first time. In 2012, we came back as husband and wife and brought our daughter. She opted to stay on the island the entire week and skip the Florida attractions. Like us she was hooked. We took her fishing, shell and shark tooth hunting and taught her how to boogie board. In 2016, we came back with all three of our children. We v

isited the Florida sites, but gave most the time to our little island. It was during this time that my husband and I started talking about how perfect it would be to retire on Little Gasparilla. We found some land and when we got home we started negotiations. We closed on the property and came back in the spring of 2017 to see the land and start to visual our dream. Pilings went up in the fall of 2017 and the house is starting to become a reality. My husband and I are not ready to retire yet, so we made the decision to rent out our dream so that others can come to paradise and enjoy it as much as we do. We would love for you to come visit and share your memories. One visit and we are sure you will be hooked like us, and we would love to hear about the memories that you have made. We will continue to post pictures from our visits and of the creation of the house. Rentals will be available in 2018. We are so excited to have you make our home and island yours.

Just met a woman on the We Love LGI page, who told me that her sister got engaged at Cloud 9. They were staying at LaLa Land and he stopped on our steps to propose. I just love hearing these stories.

Hard to believe the sand from Helene and Milton is higher than our boardwalk in this photo.

More shark teeth photos. These were also found on the beach of LGI.

Been getting a lot of questions about sharks teeth and shelling after the hurricanes. Here are my daughter’s finds in November when we came down for hurricane cleanup.

The view is a little different, but the main attraction still shines bright. (Ignore my hurricane cleanup crew dancing on the beach. 😉 They were glad for the needed break.)

Love seeing the green coming back!!

The walk from behind the house to front. We lost the boardwalk but have a lot of sand for a lovely walk to the beach. House is back to its pre-hurricane state, minus the owners storage underneath. Just need greenbag pickup.

Again, thank you to family, friends and neighbors who helped. Won’t name you, but know we are very grateful and blessed to have you in our lives.

A great find on the beach in between cleanup. Whole with no blemishes!

Looking through some old photos, and realized I missed Cloud 9’s anniversary!
We broke ground in November 2017. What an adventure! So grateful for Glen, Sari, Karl, Les, Aron and Max for making our dream come true and for also rebuilding that dream when needed after storms. We didn’t just gain a beautiful home but a great group of friends.

The difference of September 2023 trip of leisure vs October 2024 trip of cleanup. Still beautiful, just a different look. ❤️🌴🐢

Before and after cleanup photos from this weekends cleanup.

Took a break from hurricane cleanup to go shelling. Found all these in two short walks at sunset on two different nights. Love the colors of the island. Amongst the cleanup always looking for the positive.

The beach was busy today, just me and my favorite friends.

Slowly the yard is being cleaned from Milton. Thankful for our wonderful family and neighbors and all their hard work. 🥰🌴🐢

Another view. Right before Helene, in between Helene and Milton, and right after Milton.

Looking at past photos, and comparing the beach view from Cloud 9. Cannot believe how it has changed since construction of Cloud 9 began. Mostly due to Hurricane Ian, Helene and Milton. You can even see the difference in wind damage (Ian) to water damage (Helene and Milton). Nature and the residents rebuilt after Ian and they are working hard to do it again. ❤️🌴🐢🙏🏻
