Out of the pages of Ernest Hemingway, and a mile down the road is Historic Johns Pass. This rare, turn of the century boardwalk is your passport to scuba diving, casino dinner cruises, jet ski and boat rentals, parasailing and deep-sea fishing. Its rustic wood and tin-roofed buildings house a variety of specialty shops, seafood restaurants and casual grazing. Here the catch of the day may be just minutes old. And a pelican waits on every dock for the one that got away.

Disney and Universal Studios are just ninety minutes away. Tampa airport is a half hour drive.

Weather at Whispers Resort

Fanned by refreshing Gulf breezes, the weather is wonderful year round. Winters are short, December to February with nighttime temperatures around 50/60 degrees Fahrenheit and days warming up to 70/80. Summer is around 75/80 at night warming to 85/95 in the day. Very pleasant indeed!

The prevailing Summer temperatures in St Petersburg are similar to the rest of the USA but frequently not as humid because of the Gulf Breezes.

Many Canadians and Americans choose to come to Florida to escape the harsh Northern winter, making winter the peak season. July/August being the warmest months.

A wonderful opportunity awaits Europeans. Here is a chance to savor the magnificent beaches of our very special corner of the world during your peak season and our middle and low season - May through and December!

Life At Whispers

Whispers consists of seven very exclusive, intimate, clean and well maintained condominiums. There is also an Executive Home available.

Each condominium is a ground floor home hidden in a gated property away from the road. You enter Whispers through a distinctive garden gate, the Courtyard Tower overgrown with fragrant jasmine and passion flowers.

A lush tropical European style central courtyard greets you, complete with fountains, park benches and fringed with palms and exotic plants.

This is the focal point for social gatherings and meeting your neighbors and reading the morning newspaper over a cup of coffee.

The evenings are a wonderland come alive. The courtyard sparkles with accent lighting and fairy lights transform the night into a magical garden of swaying palms and tropical shrubbery. The condominiums look inwards towards the central courtyard and privacy from the outside world is assured.

Each condominium has a private patio in the back. Surrounded by tropical shrubbery, why not unplug the telephone and drop out of sight

A wall of palms, rubber trees, lilies, hibiscus and jasmine surrounds the property on all sides.

Whispers is truly a place of refuge and relaxation for the discerning guest who appreciates the finer comforts of a vacation in Paradise.

The individual condominiums are uniquely decorated in décor representing themes from places the owners have lived and their lives.

The entire property is WiFi Enabled for FREE Internet service
"Whispers" has it all, for everybody, young and old alike. Like many of our guests, who come back every year, we hope that you will too.

Step softly into "Whispers" and an age of charm, when gentle Florida was the hidden secret of Ernest Hemingway. Time has tiptoed blissfully by the tranquil courtyard at "Whispers." Here the surrounding palm trees count time in centuries amid the lush garden where soft breezes perpetually surround eight intimate condominiums.

One awaits you, one of the privileged, one of the few.

Seize your fantasy island getaway. This is your time to escape.

Spectacular sunrises are waiting. You are invited to leave the world behind and bathe your cares away in a private pool where the secluded patio calls you to relax. Sit in the shade of a huge rubber tree or tan in private. The dolphins play in your backyard. From our deep-water boat dock join the pelicans and herons and fish the day away. Fred, our resident blue heron, regularly pays us a visit, and a few sardines placed discreetly on the dock goes down well with him.

A short stroll after breakfast and you are at the beach just one block away. Here is nature's gift to the islands. Thirty miles of pristine white powder beaches and the warm inviting waters of the Gulf of Mexico are yours for the taking. These are some of the finest beaches and cleanest waters in the USA.

"Shelling" is a favorite pastime, as is watching the wide variety of spoonbills, sandpipers, and wild birds "clamming" on the seashore as you wiggle your toes in the soft warm sand.

Another short stroll puts you right in the heart of Treasure Island Village. Here are the little delis, ice cream parlors and restaurants, the tiki bars on the beach, the one-of-a kind boutiques, and cafes, and of course the ubiquitous little seaside shops with their sponges, shells, and sunscreen lotion.

Plan your busy days. There is a lot to do. Parasail, jet ski, water-ski, deep-sea fishing, diving. Why not enjoy a romantic dinner or take a casino boat cruise on the Gulf of Mexico?

Rent a bicycle and cycle the nearby Pinellas Trail for thirty miles or more. Jog it or blade it, the choice is yours. All your dreams of a perfect vacation await you at "Whispers."

The public transport trolleys run up and down the beach. Treat yourself to a day at the historic turn-of-the-century Don Ce Sar Resort and Spa. Pamper yourself with a massage or an exquisite dinner, and keep your eyes open for visiting celebrities!

Nearby is Fort de Soto Wildlife Preserve. Rated as America’s # 1 Beach and one of the Top Ten Beaches in the world, and it's just around the corner!

You are invited to barbecue, cycle, roller blade, fish, or picnic.

Property Activities

A large waterfront pool, ecologically takes advantage of solar heating.

Your view from the pool area overlooks a pristine bay with a secluded pool patio and gorgeous views of the bay with dolphins, herons, egrets and pelicans being regular visitors.

Relax with a book, catch the perfect tan and watch the antics of the birds or the dolphins in the bay. Moor your boat at our private dock, fish from the pier and have the catch fresh from the sea ready to barbeque for dinner.

When the day is done, escape the crowds, rinse off the salt after a day at the beach and plunge into the refreshing pool as the sun slips silently away.

At Whispers melts your cares away in the privacy and quiet of a secluded retreat. When you are ready for action emerge through the Courtyard Tower refreshed and ready to face the active world of beach, fun and sun.

We are located on some of the FINEST BEACHES IN THE USA!

Historic downtown Tampa is Ybor City. This is the old Cuban cigar-making district that gave the world Tampa Cigars. Today it is reminiscent of New Orleans' French Quarter with Jazz clubs, Blues bars, rave clubs, taverns, bistros, and boutiques. Rock until you drop is the theme of Ybor City.

Shopping is another treat. Three major malls are within 10-30 minutes plus a huge Factory Outlet Mall; the Ellenton Mall that features major brand name closeouts.
