Wonderful Stay
My family and I booked a week at this beautiful Key West style home. The description and amenities were spot on. Upon arrival we noticed the beautiful manicured landscaping. Entering the home it was spotless. The kitchen offered high end cookware dishes, and glassware. My family mentioned the beds and bedding were very comfortable. The backyard is truly beautiful, featuring a barbecue grill pergola, and lovely sitting area with landscape lighting.Rebecca and Zach ( owners) were very responsive with our questions. We enjoyed walking to Enzo’s for an Italian dinner and walked over to Sweet Melissa’s for ice cream. Oh and the beaches right down the road. I will definitely book this lovely and convenient home next year.

Relaxing Long Weekend
I stayed in the Bonita Bungalow for three nights in April. It was very comfortable and convenient to restaurants, Publix and the beach. My family and I walked to the restaurant (Enzo's) the first night. It was excellent. Along the ay the neighbors we encountered were friendly. Shopping was convenient. The backyard was comfortable and gave enough shade so we could sit out there at any time of the day. All in all, the house felt like being in my own home. I would recommend the Bonita Bungalow for a couple wanting a weekend away or for a family. There was plenty of room! I loved it!
