Sunshine Beach Bungalow That Is a Unique Treasure





Charming, light-filled 1938 bungalow, surrounded by tropical gardens, steps to Sunshine Beach.

No need to cross a busy intersection to reach the white sand and waves, just step out your back door to two conveniently located boardwalks, one on either side.



Listen to the crash of the waves while relaxing on a private deck area with tropical surroundings after a day in the water and sun. Plenty of seating and a gas grill for entertaining. The deck overlooks a privately fenced lawn area with colorful hibiscus and a variety of palm trees (including Coconuts, Fox Tails, Christmas and Areca). This one bedroom, one bath Bungalow sleeps 6 with two pullouts in an oversized, light-filled living area.

Independence Day Vacation

The beach bungalow was the perfect stay. It was easy to get to the beach, walk to the boardwalk and other attractions. The bungalow fit our family of 5 perfectly. An added bonus was all the great firework displays. We definitely recommend!

I loved this place. One bed, one bath, modern galley kitchen, south-facing deck and west-facing porch. Half block from a very beautiful and private beach, easy walk. Beach chairs and some toys included.Very easy parking in driveway west of Gulf Blvd but not on it, very quietAlthough the property is small, there are 20 windows and 20 palm trees (I counted).Sunshine Lane is the best I can say about it, it sort of speaks for itself.Absolutely beautiful, I cried when I left after a week.

We had a five day layover as our RV was getting serviced so we decided to stay at the beautiful Pink Cottage by the beach. Easy access to everything... and it was pet friendly!

Great stay!!

Loved this little place. Very clean and a lot of space for a one bed one bath. Very convenient being close to the beach and John’s Pass. The small neighborhood is a great place for a slow morning walk. Beautiful yard and well maintained. They provide you with beach equipment which is also a plus.
