About this property

THE GREAT ESCAPE - Private bungalow w/ beautiful, native Florida landscaping

Adorable, immaculate 900-sq foot bungalow. Enter the front gate to your own private, beautiful garden w palm trees and native Florida vegetation often attracting butterflies. Additionally, there’s a fabulous back garden with a star fruit tree, fan, lights, and covered patio for entertaining, dining, or just hanging out. Very well stocked kitchen w/ very many spices and herbs.
Walk or bike (bikes included) to downtown Lake Worth, just 6-blocks away. Downtown has lots of bars, restaurants and shops. Gorgeous beach is about 1- mile away, with incredible teal water! Golf club and casual beach restaurant just a few blocks up the street on the Intracoastal.
Central heat/ ac keeps you comfortable. Includes smart tvs, WiFi, and all appliances.
There’s a whole house water filtration unit. No need for bottled water. Plus all shower, faucets etc, are filtered water. Additionally, we’ve installed air purification within the air handler, so all air is purified as well..
Dogs are allowed, but no cats or other pets - must be approved - Please inquire w owner after booking.
I prefer two days between bookings for logistics, cleaning, and Covid safety. If it’s within one day of another booking I will consider your request.

The bungalow was fabulous! It was updated and squeaky clean. We loved the backyard/covered porch and even though it was hot we spent a lot of time out there. We even got to see iguanas in the trees and walking along the top of the fence. I would definitely recommend this little bungalow to anyone visiting South FL.

Charming Cottage near the Beach!

My family & I spent a wonderful week in this beautiful & charming cottage. The property was well kept and clean. Had all the amenities we were looking for: 2 minutes from the beach; walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, near a grocery store, etc....; supplied with all household amenities we needed.... Can't say enough about how great our stay was :-) Our host was extremely helpful and responsive at all times. I highly recommend this property.

Relaxing cottage stay

Very well-maintained, clean, well-stocked small home. Big plus is whole-house water filtration, so you can drink the tap water (unusual in FL.) I sat for many a pleasant hour on the screened-in front porch and on the shaded patio in the back. Short walk to supermarket.

Home Away From Home

Nice place to stay while visiting our son. The kitchen was fully equipped and updated. I loved the decorator's eye that put together the living room area. Every day we took an enjoyable walk around the neighborhood. Even though it had street parking, there was no problem parking. We look forward to returning.

Bungalo escape

Very well kept house, centrally located for my purposes. Close to Lake Worth center as well as Lantana. A short drive over the bridge to Lake Worth beach. The owner, Jill was readily available for questions, although her directions and explanations were thorough and available on line. I would certainly rent here again if I am in town on business or at a conference in Palm Beach. Thanks for a pleasant stay !!

quick getaway with friends

Very nice stay. We were not in the house much, but when we were, it was very comfortable. Houses are very close so some normal noise but not a problem and neighbors were friendly. Hvac unit is in closet of smaller bedroom so that may be a better bedroom for kids or heavier sleeper. But more importantly, the AC worked! We enjoyed our stay. Good choice for a quieter getaway--the town is much quieter than others to the south, and we had some great meals in local restaurants.

Was in town for a concert and saw this beautiful gem to stay in. Overall stay was awesome. Property was extremely clean and well kept. Pantry, refrigerator and bathroom very well stocked. Nice, quiet neighborhood. Loved sitting on the back/front porch during the morning and evening hours. Host was communicative but not intrusive.

A Wonderful Gem in Lake Worth

We stayed at this lovely home for 7 weeks. Everything about this home was warm, welcoming and comfortable. The backyard was a beautiful oasis. The house was very well stocked, more than expected. The location was perfect, walking distance to town and to the beach. What made this an extraordinary stay for us, was the "Customer Service" we received from Jill (Owner) including a detailed, informative and clear communications that she provided before our arrival date. We would definitely love to come back.

Loved it!

This little bungalow type home was perfect for my best friend and my 40 years of friendship celebration. We came down for a long weekend and stayed at this property. It was private, charming, cozy, adorable and clean. The decor, furniture and appliances were all really nice. Check in was super easy, check out super easy and Jill was great! She's very responsive and accommodating. We had a wonderful time, felt completely safe (being two females) and were very comfortable. We will stay here again if we come back down.

nice location - bungalow could use some updating

We could walk to the downtown area and intercostal park from our location. A few of the major appliances had to be either repaired or replaced during or stay. This caused some inconvenience since we at times had to plan our schedule around appliance repairs and also lost the service of these appliances for a certain amount of time. The host did offer compensation. The neighborhood was usually quiet at night which was a good time to sit out on the front porch.
