Home is lovely and well cared for. EVERYTHING you may need is supplied: coffee, plenty of towels, beach chairs, umbrella, cart. Beach access is a mere 4 minute walk away. Deb is extremely accommodating, helpful and reachable even though it was over the Christmas/New Year holidays. Walk to restaurants is a breeze. As I said, the house is perfect.
Everything about this place was perfect. Don’t know if it was just the time of year but we had the beach to ourselves all week practically. The home was perfect and super clean. Very well stocked for all our needs. Can’t say enough good things about our stay here! Love it!
Our family enjoyed this cozy property which is near the beach as well as an easy walk to shops/restaurants. Ed & Deb helped us work around a family medical issue and were very responsive with any question/need. A+
I Family has stayed with Deb for the second time this year. We love this location and it’s sister cottage next-door. Great location, walkable to Saint Armands Circle, and just a short walk to the beach. Great environment and the beach is not crowded typically. We will definitely stay again!
A beautiful bungalow near the beach. Loved all aspects of the facility. It was great for my little pup. Lots of glassware, etc. so would be hesitant w/ young kids. Fabulous location and amenities. Check in is rather late; an earlier check in can be requested. We did have issues with check in as code did not work & were exhausted after a very long drive, plus needed to be available for family events. Otherwise, hassle free & lovely. Wished I had stayed longer.
My sister and I have been at Flamingo before, and we love the proximity of it to the beach and to our friends who live on North Pork Drive, around the corner. The two bedroom cottage is perfect for us and is so comfortable and convenient and well appointed. We hope to be able to return to Flamingo Cottage in the years ahead. We love it there!
Great location and owners always results in an enjoyable stay. Flamingo is a special place
Wonderful stay!
Lovely little cottage, perfect position. A bit pricey for two people. Ideal for two couples and one child
Very comfortable, good location, everything you need included.
The pictures did not do the home justice! It had everything you would possibly need and more. My husband and I came with our 2 teenage daughters and the location was perfect for all of us! Couldn’t have found a better rental. Will definitely rent again!
I rented this house to be close to the Mote Marine Laboratory where my grandson had adopted an octopus. We were 3 generations staying in the house and it met all of our needs. It is away from the crazy crowded beaches, lots of nature to see in the wild. The black skimmer birds were nesting on the beach. We saw two manatees just swimming close to shore. We collected dead sanddollars and saw many live ones too. The free bikes provided were enjoyed everyday. The beach equipment was in good condition. I met the property owner one morning while I was enjoying quiet time on the front porch. He was making sure the house next door was ready for the next guests. A nice man who wants his guests to enjoy these great retro bungalows. It is sad the large condos are being built in the neighborhood. I recommend: Mote Aquarium , Ringling Museum, kayaking mangrove, Siesta Key Rum Distillery

My sister and I stayed at the Flamingo cottage the first week of May. The cottage was equipped with everything and suitable for family members of all ages. Wonderful being able to walk to the beach. Located in the more quiet end of Lido yet walking distance to shopping and restaurants. We met the owners when we arrived - very nice people!
What an amazing gem. Absolutely gorgeous beach down a short path. Perfect walking location to the circle with excellent, shopping & restaurants. House is fully equipped with everything you need for the beach. Comfortable beds, linens and furniture. We all loved it! Thanks for sharing your house on VRBO!
