Everything about my stay was was above and beyond my expectations. The Banana Bungalow was extremely clean and very nicely decorated and exceptionally maintained. The host were always available for any questions and wee prompt to reply. The kitchen was stocked with pots pans and plenty of enough utensils. Indian Shores is a great beach area for people looking for quiet beach life . SUPERB!!!

I had an excellent stay. The house was super clean and the kitchen amenities were some of the best that I have ever encountered. It was easy to contact the host. I loved how close it was the beach and it was nice that there was parking for 2 cars.

Great rental property. Located in a less busy area but 15 mins from any larger attractions. Highly recommended! Located a block away from the beach was perfect. Rich and Elisa are great owners and communicate well. No problems with our stay at all.

Thank you all for your kind words. There is such a peacefulness about being at the Banana Bungalow as a family. It is so perfectly located, a less busy area - yet close to the beach, tennis/ pickle ball courts, play ground, pavilion for cookouts and a quaint Indian Shores coffee shop! We’d love to have you all back any time!

Banana bungalow was wonderful! We had some issues with travel prior to arriving and they were so nice and understanding about it. The place was very clean and organized, the kitchen had everything we needed. The on-site laundry was perfect especially traveling with my 3 kids! The beach was so close plus having the park across the street was great for the kids. We loved having the wagon to transport all our things to and from the beach as well. We love Indian Rocks and can't wait to come back. We would love to start at the bungalow again!

We were so sad for you all when weather affected travel for more than a whole day, that’s why we tried to give you almost a whole extra day since there were no other renters coming in right away. We so love the closeness to Indian Shores and Indian Rock beaches. The park is so convenient - right across from the Banana Bungalow. Since all of the appliances are brand new this year the washer and dryer come in handy. We’d love to have you back.

We had an amazing stay at the banana bungalow and would definitely come back! The bungalow was spotless, well maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. It was fully stocked with anything we needed from the bathroom to the kitchen. It was recently redone and really adorable. Smelled so nice when we walked in and had some extra sweet surprises. The owners were wonderful to work with. They communicated quickly, were very accommodating, and even let us check in early, which we really appreciated, especially because we traveled long distance with our senior dog.The location couldn’t have been better. It was just a short walk across the street to the beach, and having beach chairs available and other fun beach accessories. The bikes were also a great bonus and made it easy to explore the area. There was even a fun little dive bar just down the street that we ended up visiting more than once.Overall, this was the perfect place for a relaxing beach getaway. We highly recommend it and can’t wait to come back!

We are so grateful when other people get to see, experience and value the Banana Bungalow like we do. The location, the newness of everything, how it’s outfitted for everything one might want or need in a home away from him and rest that can be found are just a few things of what makes this place so special. We hope to have you back in the future!
