Our home is thoughtfully equipped for your needs. Whip up a meal in our fully equipped kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances and gas range. Wether relaxing on the sofa watching the game, or sitting around the table creating memories, unwinding on the porch, or sipping a glass of wine in the clawfoot tub you’ll be sure to leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Our fenced backyard provides privacy as well as security for your children both human and fur alike! Our property is pet friendly because we understand that our pets deserve to be apart of the family vacay! Our backyard is beautifully landscaped to provide the perfect backdrop for a cookout, game of corn hole, or dinner on the screened porch. Artificial turfed backyard. Turf is not only eco friendly (no water or pesticides required) it also provides an allergy friendly play space for your little ones. Clean up after your pets are a breeze and puppy waste bags are provided for your convenience. The cute backyard shed is stocked with fun backyard games and two bicycles free for you to use - perfect for a scenic ride on Bayshore or picnic at one of the many surrounding public parks.

Out four day visit to Tampa Bay Area was made even better by renting this delightful charming little bungalow, which fairly begs you to share your comfort & joy with others. Lots of area s for eating, drinking, conversing. MRvelous decor $ touches - like the mRblius tromp d’oeil of the many artificial plants which defied your detection. Please few shortcomings

My husband and I lived in Hyde Park for many years and recently retired to the Blue Ridge Mountains. We were looking for that South Tampa Bungalow charm to rent and this home did not disappoint. From the vintage and eclectic various furnishings and cozy rooms to the wonderful private screened porch and backyard, the hosts thought of it all. We also love that the hosts are passionate about the environment and use sustainable products wherever possible. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and we look forward to booking again in the very near future.

This property was great, exactly what the review listed, was very well decorated and the beds are extremely comfortable.
There was a very weird smell when we entered the property, and the heat was on, or at least it was not cool in the house, extremely humid.
There was hairs within the corners of the bathroom, and the property was not dusted down. Looks like they spot clean for the most part, if that.
The host was great and easy to get ahold of.

We did NOT have a good experience at this bungalow. We also have short term rentals on VRBO and know how/what all is involved. The mold and mildew smell in the house is awful! The exterior of the house is filthy. Some windows are so dirty you cannot even see outside, the sills are covered in mildew and dirt. The owners control the HVAC temperature and we were MISERABLE. It was an 80 degree day, no ceiling fan in the primary bedroom, owners control thermostat and do not allow below 72! No light in the refrigerator the bulb is gone, No light bulb in the living room lamp, 21 of light bulbs not functioning in the string of lights outside.They advertise a real coffee maker but they have a keurig that makes one cup at a time. Plastic drinkware (with lipstick stains) plastic cooking tools/utensils, ruined/old non stick cookware that should never be used.To advertise this home as “green or environmental” is essentially false advertising. The hand and dish soap in the “reusable glass dispensers” were literally all watered down and had zero soap in them.
This house looked abandoned due to lack of maintenance when we arrived. We purchased our own sheets, coffee maker & cookware. The final straw came at 4 am on day 8 when we were bolted awake by a loud screech from the fridge that never stopped until we pulled the breaker. We packed our bags and called it quits. We left 6 days early. Owner asked for feedback and she never responded.

Great spot close to downtown, the bay, stores and restaurants. Great place to come back to and relax with friends and family! Great home and yard for hosting away from home! Such a fun getaway!

This was a perfect rental. Beautiful inside and an amazing porch and backyard. Made for nice relaxing evening with the family. Also nearby fun areas like Hyde Park and Channelside. Neighborhood was nice and quiet as well. Hope to visit again.
