ABOUT WhispersResort
Bring your Bicycle and fishing poles or use ours! Tie your boat up at the dock (by prior arrangement please). Dogs are welcome - let us know in advance!
Whispers is a beautiful, small property of 9 individual units located right in the Heart of the Gulf Beaches Town of Treasure Island. It has lush tropical gardens featuring a veritable "jungle" of unique plants.
There is a large, water front heated communal pool, BBQ, a fishing and boat dock. We try to fulfill all your dreams of a hidden tropical getaway that grandpa and grandpa had back in the day.
Whispers is a Retro Florida Resort. We have lovingly preserved the look and the feel of the 1960's Florida Experience for the past twenty plus years that we have owned it.
The whole idea of staying At Whispers is to get away from a chrome and glass "Mc Motel" and to enjoy the experience of a throw back in time.
That is what Florida is all about and that is why Disney and Universal are so popular - its all about the fantasy and the unique experience.
Whispers takes you back to the 1960's, the days of the corner soda shop, and grandpa taking his old "woodie" station wagon down to Florida and the kids arguing all the way down who is better - the Beach Boys or the Beatles or do you still prefer Elvis?
And grandpa hollerin' "Get a haircut why don't you? You look like a girl!"
We have created Whispers - the experience of old Florida.
We have preserved the pinks and blues and greens of the original bathroom fittings, and the Formica counter tops and the retro decor - we will never trash these - they don't make them anymore.
Forget the cardboard box look with the beige walls and beige tiles and beige towels and beige granite.
We are not everyone and guests who want the Whispers experience not only appreciate what we are doing they LOVE IT!
The updated facilities include electricity, water, air conditioning and heating as well as the electronics, flat screen TV's in every room, microwave ovens in the full full kitchens and free Wi Fi are a nod to the present needs of our guests - the look and the feel of Whispers is still strictly the 1960's!
Every condo has a unique theme - that is something you will not find in the Days Inn. We have the English Cottage, the Hawaii and Santa Fe Suites, Africa and Oriental etc. etc. - THE STAY IS THE EXPERIENCE!
Come with the right frame of mind and you will have a BLAST FROM THE PAST!
Our website tries to faithfully show each unit as it is (sometimes we change the furniture and fixings) check out on line and see what you are getting .
We still remember the "Summer of Love." Be happy and high on love and life, that is the Whispers Experience!

Quaint
The location is great. It is within walking distance to local restaurants, shopping , grocery and the beach . The furniture could be updated. The room was clean and very small. I was traveling with my sister . It is not big enough for more that that. The sofa is very small with only a foam pad . The property backs up to the back and nature park like setting near dock area. If you are just gonna be sleeping in the unit it’s perfect outside of the bed

Great Vacation
The room was wonderful so close to the beach. Full kitchen on the intercostal. Next to grocery store. Laundry room. Clean. I would have liked a few more wash cloths and better instructions for the Tv and where to find the laundry room. Other wise it was perfect. I would definity recommend this place and stay there again.
