About this property

☀Fun Flamingo-Beachfront-Quiet Retreat, Best Views

The Fun Flamingo Bungalow is a charming 1950’s ranch bungalow directly on the beach of Alligator Point; part of Old Florida on its Forgotten Coast. A wonderful getaway for enjoying the ocean and its habitat. Sit in the 11-window ocean-facing sunroom to watch waves dance upon the shore and dolphins play along the surf. Or get those toes wet by taking just a few steps outside the back door where you'll enjoy the endless beaches of Alligator Point. Or head to our grassy front yard (with a fence for some privacy) where a cornhole competition or other lawn games beckon you if you tire of the beach. If it happens to rain, we have a variety of games and puzzles to play indoors or grab a book from The Fun Flamingo's take-one-leave-one library. Lastly, the bedrooms and the living room all have flat screen TVs with the living room also having an Xbox Kinect and a DVD player + over 75 DVD movies.

Because of it's size, our house is best suited to no more than 4 adults (which would include teenagers) with then up to 5 children. If you have more than 4 adults, please reach out to us to verify our place will suit your needs.

Relaxation!

We visited in late October. Despite two hurricanes passing over FL the weeks prior the weather was great! It was like we had our own private beach! The dogs ran and played and we watched sunrises and sunsets everyday. The place was great and we would definitely go back!

Wonderful vacation

We love the house and the location. It was a short walk to the beach. My granddaughter has cerebral palsy and it wasn't a problem for her. The house had everything we needed and my grandsons loved the bunk beds and we all loved the windows on the sun porch. We hope to stay here next time we visit Alligator Point. We caught a lot of fish and saw dolphins every day!

A Quiet Getaway

The property is truly a cute, quirky space. We loved that there is an ocean view from nearly every room, and the glass porch view is spectacular. We loved that it was so close to the water. At night, because it happened to be a new moon, and the neighbors were keeping their lights off for the sea turtles, the stars were spectacular. We would definitely stay there again. Better than the pictures!

Scene out of a Movie

Such a cute house- like something out of a movie. The view from the back porch is wonderful. A big tree in the front yard and lots of space to spread out inside (which we needed with teens and older kids). Would definitely stay again- this is a completely different experience than the high rise resorts.

The Perfect Getaway!

My husband LOVED our week at Fun Flamingo. It was a beautifully restored Old-Florida home with amazing ocean views and is situated right on the beach. The perfect quiet escape with very few people and NO crowds. If you're looking to getaway and have the beach all to yourself, this is the perfect place. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets and walks along the beach, saw many Dolphin swimming just off shore, and enjoyed just relaxing on the sugar sand beach all day. The house has all the amenities so we cooked dinner there every night, including grabbing some fresh seafood from the local market and preparing it at the house. We will definitely visit again and recommend the Fun Flamingo to everyone.

Hidden Gem of a Beach House!!!

Best VRBO ever! We booked this because of the location and many reviews saying they watched dolphins everyday! Just let me say The Fun Flamingo is amazing! You are just steps to the beach and dolphins came within three feet of us standing with our feet barely in the water! We saw them several times a day! The whole house was just homey and inviting and has everything you may need! The sunroom was our favorite place! If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of tourist areas this is the place to be! Lisa was an excellent host and quick to respond when we messaged! This place is a hidden gem! We hope we get to visit again!!!

Perfect R & R!

House had everything that we needed. Little extras like indoor & outdoor games, espresso machine, red light flashes lights for star gazing added the perfect touch of entertainment. Loved that there was an upper beach and the main beach as well. Sat for hours in the huge sunroof watching dolphins. Great clean home. Plenty of kitchen supplies but no dishwasher so bring paperplates.

Such a Magical Place

From start to finish, this rental had it all. The owner/manager was awesome at having what we needed there - even when we didn't think we needed it - aloe vera for instance, which was great with the stores 30 minutes away. The house was comfortable and perfect for us and our 3 adult children. First time to this area and I think I definitely fell in love. Thank you for the use of your home! It was amazing from the flamingoes at the mailbox to the flamingoes in the backyard!
