☆☆Guest Access☆☆ Guests have access to the entire home! Your home is located behind the main house, here’s how to easily get there. When you arrive, park on the street in front of the house (not in the driveway, that is dedicated to the guests in the main home.)
Look for the red pavers on the left hand side of the home and follow them to the wooden gate.
Enter the gate code and you’ll see your unit- The Retro Retreat! Enter your front door keyless entry code and voila, you’ve arrived at your home away from home!
☆☆Other things to note☆☆
1. Florida is Tropical. In such an environment, we frequently encounter local wildlife which includes insects. Our home is well maintained and treated regularly to reduce bug encounters . However, we cannot control the occasional bug creeping in to say hello or found dead (this a good sign as the place is treated). Unfortunately, we will not issue a refund for a dead or live occasional bug. It's Florida and that’s where we live. If you happen to see a bug just let us know we can spray for you! We do not foresee this being an issue during your stay but we must mention it.
2. This home is on a large lot with a main bungalow located in front of it. You’ll have complete privacy as your 1 bedroom home is completely detached from the main home, but please note that there is another rental house on the property.
3. Please do not mark in the driveaway, this is dedicated for the main home. There is plenty of free street parking in front of the house though!
4. No keys to lose or to return- woohoo! You can enter with your personal smart lock code that will be sent to you in a message after you book!
5. We do politely ask guests to respect quiet hours from 10pm-8am both inside and outside for our neighbors.
6. We created a list of our favorite places to eat, drink and hang out for you! You will find this list printed and laminated inside our home!
☆☆Our Policies☆☆

Clean pet friendly cottage
The place was clean and nice overall. However, we did run into a problem with the toilet being clogged when we arrived, so we couldn’t use it for the first night and most of the next day. This made things a bit inconvenient since we had to head to Publix to take care of things. The bed was okay, but the plastic mattress protector under the sheets made it a bit uncomfortable, as we ended up sweating throughout the night. On the plus side, it’s a great spot with a nice backyard where our Pomeranian had plenty of room to run around.
