The perfect bungalow
I absolutely loved staying at Bear Necessities. I was in need of time to myself and this simple bungalow immediately felt like home. The kitchen is well appointed with everything a cook might need. Including various spices, oils and a basic selection of canned and dry goods. Much more than I expected. I cooked three of the four nights of my stay. The patio is just as perfect. I sat out there for every meal. The Queen sized bed is quite comfortable and is equipped with my favorite brand of pillows. It is a certainty that I will recommend Bear Necessities to anyone that asks. And if I ever return to Mexico Beach I will be checking the app for availability. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Perfect
Bear necessities was the perfect place to stay. The house was just the right size and very clean and everything we could possibly need was there plus more. We loved sitting in the outdoor area in the afternoons and the outdoor shower was great after a day at the beach. There was even a golf cart we could use. The location was close to the beach and places to eat. We will definitely be back next year!

Peaceful sanctuary!
Just the right size and location to unwind and rejuvenate. The beach was very close and it was easy to navigate the area. I appreciated the chance to get away and enjoy the sand, sun and seafood in the area. I highly recommend this cute little gem. Definitely would stay there again.

Our favorite getaway!
We always love staying at Bear Necessities for our annual "end of Summer" getaway. It has everything you need! We especially love the outdoor area and taking the golf cart on sunset cruises or for a quick trip to the nearby market. The location is the best! The beaches are never crowded. It's our little slice of heaven! Can't wait to go back!

Great things come in small packages!
I can’t say enough about this beach rental. It’s small exterior is definitely deceiving. Inside the unit it is spacious, perfectly designed, and beautifully decorated! Anything and everything we could possibly need, and more, was provided. The beach is only a few blocks away which is even easier to access thanks to the complimentary golf cart. I’m not sure if my girls enjoyed the beach more or our leisurely rides on the golf cart. The owner was always quick to respond and very helpful and kind. We will definitely be returning, and I highly recommend to future vacationers. You will not me disappointed!!
