A little about this house: The original bungalow was constructed in 1951, and an addition was made in 2006. The two story addition is where you will stay. This space provides complete privacy with a separate entrance and outdoor space. The connection between the two spaces was securely closed off and a wall behind the doors was added. French doors remain for decorative purposes only.

Please note, there is NO KITCHEN in this space.

Outdoor floodlight camera located on front walkway for our safety and yours.

If stay is longer than 8 nights, a cleaning will be scheduled mid stay at our current cleaning rate.

Beautiful, clean and spacious guesthouse with added bonus backyard. Kids really enjoyed exploring plants and little guests. Shower and bathtub was a lifesaver after long road and sunny beach days. Thank you for magoes right from the tree!

Very nice 2 bedroom

My adult son and a friend stayed here. It was clean and bedrooms and master bath very nice. There is no kitchen which is disclosed in listing and was not a problem for us as they were just sleeping and showering and spending all their time at our family home. Check in process was seamless. Neighborhood near main street commercial area but did not feel unsafe at all. A positive experience.

Excellent Host & Property

Alana exceeded expectations as our host. Responsive and thoughtful to help accommodate our 10 month old. Very clean home. Enjoyed the courtyard patio and balcony. Very short drive to downtown or an easy 20 minute walk. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Alana Benito

I moved to Florida about 10 years ago “temporarily” and fell in love with the sunshine! Real estate is my full time job and I own two short term/mid term rentals.

Why they chose this property

This property is attached to my primary residence—but completely separate/private. Most days I am nearby if you need something or a quick text a way if you have a question or need a local suggestion. We joke that when we divided our home in two, we gave the cool side to our guests.

What makes this property unique

Besides being a large space for a small space price, this property is loved and operated by the owners, not some large company. We put our heart into hosting.
