A nice couple's getaway!
We had a great time spending the week at the bungalow! The backyard is beautiful and very private. The pool is great and lots of places to sit and enjoy the outdoors. Even in the August heat, we spent a lot of time outside. The house is very comfortable. As hurricane Idalia formed in the gulf and moved north, Duncan and his daughter communicated with us, letting us know the hurricane's path and if we needed to be concerned or not. We felt very well taken care of, especially for those days as the hurricane formed and moved past the area (fortunately far to the west). Duncan is a great communicator, proactively reaching out and quickly answering all questions. We highly recommend the bungalow for a couple's getaway!

Not Paradise
It started bad right off the get go. Neighbors life on top of each other. Booming LOUD music started at 10am and got louder as the day goes. We’re forced inside before dark. Next two days were the same. Chickens on the other side. Allen was quick to try and help but the police came to the door. Next day music neighbors shot fireworks at us and the Raines down on us in the pool. We had reservations for two weeks but day three we left. Allen got us a refund but then accused us of destroying the house and claiming our dog saturated his carpet. He even threatened us that he would make sure we would never rent again anywhere. Don’t go here. It’s not Paradise at all. Worse vacation EVER!

The Bungalow is very cozy and comfy inside and very beautiful outside. We stayed for six weeks and were disappointed we had to leave as well as our dog who was in heaven as she had free access to the backyard. Any maintenance problems were addressed immediately by Duncan. Also the place was very convenient to a number of good restaurants. We will miss Duncan!

Private Get-Away!
We stayed for a week at Duncan's bungalow with our dog and all three of us very much enjoyed our stay. The backyard oasis is the high point of the home as we felt as if we were the only people in the area. The neighborhood is quiet, clean, and safe and there are plenty of stores and restaurants to choose from for meals. The drive to Sanibel was easy meaning we had a daily choice between a private pool and a world-class beach. We hope to stay here again in the future although generally, it's definitely a trip you'll need to plan in advance - the place is literally booked solid halfway through the summer! Thanks, Duncan!

Short but wonderful
My wife & I are from Cleveland ohio. First time at the bungalow. It was breathtaking once we stepped inside for just how nicely decorated and clean it was. So comfortable we were saddened to leave. The pool was bigger than most and temp was just right. All the trees and the hut by the pool made complete privacy along with the landscape and Sandy areas to compliment. We met Duncan whom I enjoyed sharing stories together and was a pleasure meeting him. If you want a little slice of heaven, then stay at the bungalow for it is better than described. We will be back !!

Paradise inside and out for my husband, me, and our pups!
My husband, three pups, and I had the best experience staying at this bungalow! It’s perfectly located - 10 minutes to downtown, 15 minutes to the beach. The house had everything we needed. We felt right at home - if our home was a resort! Just stepping into the bungalow all of our stress disappeared. Then walking into the backyard was like walking on our private beach. We never wanted to leave! Checking in/checking out and communicating with Duncan was so easy and he was very quick to reply to all of our questions before we arrived. This was our first VRBO experience and it has set the bar extremely high.

The bungalow is comfy, clean, and has anything you could need, even sunscreen. The neighborhood is upscale and quiet. The pool is awesome, large, clean and a nice temp. The back yard is great, a private jungle. You can't see the neighbors any direction you look, and the sandy Beach spots by the pool are nice to relax, have a drink and get some sun. Communication was great and check in-ckeck out was very slick and easy. Highly recommended all around

The house is clean and has a good layout. Kitchen has pretty much anything you would need. There are plenty of beach chairs and beach towels so no need to pack your own. Pool and yard are ideal for letting our pups explore and swim. We were pleased with the proximity to downtown and getting to the beach. There were several bikes in the garage for cruising around the neighborhood. Duncan has created a thoughtful getaway. Book now.

Fabulous Thanksgiving break!
This was our first time staying @ the cute bungalow & Duncan was so accommodating. We were so impressed with the layout of the house, the lovely pool & nature it provided. We loved those butterflies Duncan! They provided us a show everyday! I loved the neighborhood & every home is cared & manicured for. If you feel adventurous for a walk/run - Thomas Edison’s home is 4 miles one way and what beautiful homes were along McGregor! We also had excellent weather, low 80’s & no rain! What more could a Midwestern girl ask for. See you 2021 Thanksgiving Duncan!

Not as advertised.
We were very disappointed with the overall condition of the outside living space at this property. Owner needs to update listing with more current photos. Not at all how the photos depicted the pool area including outdoor furnishings that were not there for our stay. The exterior of the property and what furniture remains needs a good cleaning, or replaced. We were surprised that we were expected to use pool with an attached running pool vac including a lengthy hose for the duration of our stay. There was nothing mentioned in the property description nor booking info regarding that. As far as the interior of house everything iwas as described.

Over 500 guests have visited the Bungalow over the past 11+ years. About half have returned, some as many as 6 times. The folks who were in residence the week prior to this couple submitted a Five Star Review bringing the total to 113 . You be the judge... Respectfully submitted, Duncan

Best Rental on VRBO
This is an outstanding home for anyone wanting comfort, privacy, quiet and sparkling cleanliness. The owner, Duncan, is head and shoulders above anyone I’ve dealt with before. Great communication and anything we could think of was already provided when needed. I’ve stayed at some very nice homes across the globe, but this was more than I even expected! The home is within a well established, quiet neighborhood, but once you past the entrance you feel you are in your private home in the Caribbean. With a brief drive over to Sanibel Island beaches, we went for a couple of beautiful sunsets and shell hunting excursions. We took in Downtown Fort Myers a few hours and found good restaurants and shops with everyone very friendly. However, we spent the vast majority of our time relaxing, unwinding and disconnecting by simply living our time at the bungalow. You definitely will not go wrong by booking the best rental on VRBO.

We escaped to the bungalow for a week and what a wonderful week we had!!! The house was quaint and comfortable. The backyard was truly amazing and private. We lounged by the pool everyday which is a very nice size pool. Everything you could ever need is at the house so you literally only need to pack your clothes. If you don't find it look in another cabinet or drawer and there it is. The Bungalow was the perfect week away for us. Thank you for everything and we will be back soon.

Relaxation & Privacy!
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Bungalow. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was very well stocked. The owners really went out of their way to make this property feel like you were in your own little secluded resort. The palm trees and plantings made it very private. Our lives are go, go, go and we tend to have a lot of stress in our professional careers and even more so this year dealing with this pandemic, so we were looking for a place where we could just forget the troubles of the world and relax. This was the perfect property to be able to do that. The Bungalow is just a short trip over to Sanibel Island which we enjoyed very much. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely stay here.

Perfect Getaway!
This property was everything we expected and more. We found that we were OVER prepared, as they thought of everything, down to the last detail. They even had doggy dishes! The bed was extremely comfortable. The temperature of the house was comfortable. All of the appliances were easy to use. Cabinets were stocked with basic spices, sugar etc. They really thought of everything. The backyard, wow! The temperature of the pool was perfect. The lawn furnishings were wonderful. The patio and grill were very nice. They are not kidding about privacy. The back is very secluded from neighbors. The owner was easy to reach, checked on us after check-in, and was pleasant throughout the entire process. We had one very minor maintenance issue come up, and Duncan responded IMEDDIATELY, and the issue was immediately resolved. There are simply not enough things to say about this place. We will definitely be back.
