1950s Retro Beach Bungalow directly on the Beach! Spectacular Views! John's Pass

Don't want the crowded condo experience with noisy neighbors having condo parties & dealing with lugging beach supplies & groceries up multiple flights of stairs? Don't want to be subjected to a crowded condo or hotel complex? Then this private, stand-alone two bedroom, one bath,1951 retro themed bungalow with tons of amenities that are not offered at other properties is for you!

The bungalow is located literally on the white sands of Treasure Island. So you will be waking up to the sound of waves lapping onto the shore. Be in the center of it all, but with privacy in your own home that has views of the beach & the crystal blue water of the Gulf from the living room, dining room, kitchen & the primary bedroom. Not only that, you can open the slider to an amazing patio area with an oversized, colorful picnic table and some beach chairs.

***UNIQUENESS OF THE PROPERTY***
There are very few single family houses on the beach for rent anymore as most were torn down for huge condos and hotels. So are you tired of the sterile condo or hotel experience? Then you will appreciate this property. Much care was put into making your stay to be an experience with the 1950s retro vibe. Pictures of old Treasure Island from the 1950s, pale blue kitchen cabinets, bright yellow refrigerator, original yellow and pink tile in the bathroom, shabby chic furniture, fun wall decor, and neon surfer and shark signs. The moment you step into the property, you will notice this is not a cookie cutter condo, but your own private home for you and your family to make memories that will last a lifetime!

We also have a sister property that is very similar a half a mile away in Madeira Beach that is a 3 bedroom/ 2 Bath that you can see here.

***BEACH ACCESS***
Simply walk out the back sliders and put your toes in the sand. You will note that we are a VERY PRIVATE part of Treasure Island. There is also a natural play area framed out by the sea oats off the back of the house that is secluded from the public part of the beach that you will not find anywhere else on Treasure Island.

***2 BEDROOMS/1 FULL BATH***
Included in this 850 square foot beach house are 2 bedrooms. Bedroom #1 has a king bed. Bedroom #2 has two full sized beds which can accommodate up to 2 people in each bed. The kitchen is open concept with a breakfast bar and you have a separate dining table. As you can see from the pictures, everything was recently renovated.

***AMENITIES - BEACH CHAIRS, UMBRELLA, BEACH TOYS, KAYAK, WASHER/DRYER, FREE INTERNET, PLUS MUCH MORE!***
The property also boasts a fully equipped kitchen, 65" smart flat screen TVs, Spectrum TV & free high speed internet. All linens and kitchen utensils are provided. A washer & dryer are available for your use outside the bungalow unlike the condos which you have to pay $4 per wash & dry your clothes in a dingy common area laundry room. We also include a laundry detergent saving you more money & making your stay more hassle-free! One parking space is included which is standard at most accommodations on the beach. Ask about options if you need a 2nd. We do also include beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrella, boogie boards, & swim noodles for your enjoyment. Since we provide you items like beach chairs & umbrellas (most other rentals do not include the large umbrellas & beach chairs), you will save the $5 per day, per chair beach chair rental fee or the $15 per day umbrella rental fee charged on the beach! Condos can't offer all these extras as they don't have the storage space for all these extra items.

***LOCATION & LOCAL ACTIVITIES***
You just can't beat the location for convenience either as John's Pass is walkable as it is one block to the Madeira Beach/Treasure Island bridge and you can simply walk over the bridge and be in John's Pass with a 5 minute walk. It is within walking distance to several fine dining opportunities. Thus, you can easily make do without a car.

Historic John's Pass Village offers a host of entertainment options including; many great beach bar and grills, nightly live music, wine tasting, dolphin tours, jet ski rentals, parasailing, sunset boat tours, alligator petting exhibit, pirate ship cruise, & so much more. Dining options 3 blocks away are also plentiful such as Bubba Gump, The Friendly Fisherman, The Pirate's Den, The Rusty Anchor, Mad Beach Craft Brewing, Gators & more! Don't pass up the opportunity to take a stroll over the Madeira Beach Bridge for some great views!

***PLEASE READ***
We do want to point out that there are two houses on this property. Each house has their own separate spaces for privacy. They simply share the lot. The bungalow has it's own private porch area off the back of the house and the house that sits behind this one has it's own private deck that is above this house. The bungalow uses the beach access on the right side of the lot and the house behind the bungalow uses the beach access on the left side of the property. Out of respect for our neighbors and to keep the bungalow in good condition, we do not allow large parties, rentals to more than 6 people, pets or smoking in the house. We do ask that you respect the maximum 6 people limit during your stay. If you have more people, you will be asked to vacate & there will be no refund. We mention this as we have had people rent the property that had 6 guests and then they had an extra car load or two of their friends over the entire stay sleeping on the floor, blow-up mattresses & on the outdoor lounge chairs. The house just can't take the wear & tear of more than 6 people so we appreciate if you would respect that when you consider renting.
