Our third year, that probably says it all. Quiet, peaceful garden setting with beautiful deck to sit out on while enjoying coffee or an evening libation. We love it there.
The host was very accommodating to my short stay. They were able to clean and arrange the house in time for me to check-in a few minutes early. The house was amazing and conveniently located. Just as advertised. Thanks!
If you have the chance to book this amazing property, do not pass it up. You will not be disappointed! We stayed at this slice of paradise for a week. The host Vanessa was so kind, the location is great and the house was well stocked.
My family and I had a wonderful stay! The property is clean and very comfortable. The owners are friendly and helpful too! We look forward to staying at this lovely property again soon!
This home was exactly as described and felt like we were walking into a professionally designed home. It was spacious for the two of us and would have easily accommodated four people/two couples. Super comfy beds/linens, large closets, full size fridge with ice maker/water (bonus!) and fair size patio overlooking the home owners garden. Kitchen was well stocked, minus the dishwasher which we knew about. We felt very safe/comfortable in the home/community.Vanessa has another property behind this one, a smaller ‘casita’, and she and her family also live on the property in another building, but you’d never really know it as we barely saw them or the other VRBO occupants.The purpose of our trip was to watch baseball which was about a 15 minute walk from the property. Would definitely stay again!
Stayed for Thanksgiving with my 6 year old son, brother and his girlfriend. The place was great, the decor was amazing. Very comfortable cozy place. The only issue was the first night the AC was not on and took the owner a while to answer, the AC can only be controlled by the owner. Luckily the weather took care of itself and we didn't need the AC on.

Love the hosts, quiet peaceful garden backyard with cozy cottage that suits our tastes. Great location for walking, biking and eating at restaurants galore. Easy to get around.
Was nice little home, quiet neighborhood,close to everything you could possibly want, only thing wish it had was washer/dryer but none the less was a nice place.
We had a great time staying here. The house was super clean and the decor was very welcoming. The location is convenient to the beach and restaurants and the street is very quiet.
The matresses are a little too firm for us pillow toppers, but nothing we couldnt handle.
The owners were very responsive to any questions once we were there.
We would definitely stay again.
Had the pleasure of scoring this beautiful home for my birthday weekend.
If you are in search of a place to stay whether on business or pleasure, this is an absolute gem to book for your trip. The interior of this property was so well put together, it creates a unique vibe that will leave you sad as you are checking out for your end of trip. Plus you couldn’t have asked for a better location. Right in the middle of all the action!
Thank you Vanessa for such a wonderful stay.
Vanessa was an excellent host! The house is gorgeous and had everything you could need for your stay. Plenty of towels, toilet paper, kitchen supplies, and beach towels provided. Not far from Clearwater beaches, only about 15 minutes and the downtown Dunedin area is great to grab something to eat and even has a little pier that’s beautiful at sunset.
The house was absolutely adorable, extremely easy to find and the property manager was so sweet! I HIGHLY recommend this property and if I visit the area again, I will stay here if available. Only thing was the drive way is slimmer than an average drive way, if you have a vehicle larger than an Explorer you may not fit but there is possible other places to park just communicate it when booking.
We really enjoyed our stay at this home. Within 15 minutes of most anything you could need (including the beach). Super cozy and you could tell a lot of thought went into the design of the home. Thank you for having us. The only thing that would have made it even more complete would have been a washer/dryer - but it was clear on description that one was not on site so we were prepared!
We had such a wonderful, but short, stay at this very sweet home. Clean,
cozy, and quite stylish, we were able to
make ourselves very comfortable. The outside deck and garden were such a treat. Spent one morning enjoying the birds and butterflies visiting the very
beautiful space.
Home was very nice, had a bit of trouble with television having instructions by the remote would have been helpful.
Not walking distance to the beach, beach is a 20 min drive.There is a bay nearby which was very nice for walking.
Cozy and clean—out of the Clearwater tourist fray in quaint Dunedin
This spot is a real gem. Because it was just my friend and I (for a Moms Getaway) we didn’t mind that there wasn’t laundry on site. For those with kiddos or more people it’s something to note. I’m sure there’s a laundromat nearby.
Vanessa’s communication was just right and we enjoyed the quiet secluded yard and neighborhood.
The cozy bungalow, lives up to all the prior reviews and our expectations. There’s a certain vibe in the home where you just feel comfortable. The atmosphere and decor creates a warm, welcoming environment. The home is very clean and we had all the essentials. The property owner, Vanessa was readily available to answer any questions. She was very friendly and engaging. So if you’re looking for a place to really unwind, kickback and relax, I would highly recommend the cozy bungalow.
We spent just short of two months with Vanessa and Dajango enjoying their little slice of trophy paradise, already booked again for next year. Need I say more. Cute very livable bungalow in a garden setting. Spent morning and evenings on the private backyard deck enjoining their peaceful space. Easy living just as pictures depict with two wonderful hosts. PS - short walk to Pinellas trail and the water, did it almost every day.
Lovely 100 year old craftsman home updated with all the modern amenities. We learned about permaculture gardening. Admired the hard work that has been put into the amazing yard. A lot of hard work, for sure. They have used every inch of the property to support this life style. Home is located on a quiet street and close to downtown Dunedin, the ballpark and Honeymoon Island is a 15 minute drive. We loved it! Owners were easy to reach and helpful. Thanks for having us.

Why they chose this property
Getting around the town is quickest by car, but most enjoyable by foot or bike. Downtown Dunedin has several bike shops that offer rentals! Take in the historic beach town vibes on the Pinellas trail and meet the locals that make this neighborhood a special destination.
