About this space

🏡 Watch Manatees and Dolphin play in the canal or gaze across the mangrove forest all from your multiple back balconies. Your time at Mangrove Magic can be a relaxing and romantic seaside getaway or a fun filled and action packed exploration of all the wonderful amenities that Little Harbor Resort has to offer. A white sandy beach, sunset tiki bar, two pools, and exercise room, and two waterside restaurants await your arrival.

Join one of the boat clubs in the Marina and pick your ride for the day or self propel with kayak or paddle board rentals. Day trips include lots of golf, parks and nature trails, or maybe a short trip over the Skyway bridge some shopping and dining in St. Pete Beach. Our favorite is Pass-A-Grille and the Red, White, and Booze restaurant right on the inter-coastal waterway.

Immerse yourself in the inviting ambiance of our communal heated pool, where you can soak up the sun and unwind in style. Feel the cool, refreshing water caress your skin as you embrace the tranquility of this oasis. Indulge in the beauty of beach access just steps away, where pristine sands and shimmering waves await your arrival. Take leisurely walks along the shore, bask in the sun's gentle warmth, and let the rhythmic sound of the ocean soothe your soul.

And that's not all! Our resort-like townhome boasts an onsite bar where you can sip on your favorite drinks and mingle with fellow guests. Enjoy delightful conversations, laughter, and create unforgettable memories in this inviting social space.

Mangrove Magic was a great place to stay. It was exactly as photoed. The tv on to relaxing music was a very inviting touch! All of the basic amenities were provided. The condo is very spacious and well decorated. It was a peaceful stay. We also enjoyed going to the pool and seeing the resident dolphin. We would certainly stay there again!

Our stay at Mark’s place was nothing short of amazing! We celebrated my daughter’s 11th birthday and had plenty of room for all guests! The party crew loved it! The layout, furnishings, everything was great! Friendly, speedy responses, overall highly recommend! All rooms have a balcony which was amazing! We were able to access the beach area but could not get in the water are due to some bacteria that was tested in the water the week we stayed. Pool area could use some updating. This is not on the host. But the party crew enjoyed it and had lots of fun in the hot sun! The spot is Perfect for families! Great location! Hidden gem!!!!! Can’t wait to stay again!

This is our 2nd stay and will plan on booking it every time we are in town. The word "excellent" comes to mind when summarizing our stay. The pictures are exactly what you see when you walk in. Professionally decorated, immaculate, and warm also come to mind. Once again, this stay has exceeded all expectations! Carol
