What a Bunker

My Family had the pleasure of spending a week on Alligator Point in this wonderful home. We have traveled and used VRBO extensively for more than a decade and can say this is one of the most unique places we have ever stayed. We loved Alligator point and would certainly recommend staying in this home..

Great family vacation

We had a great time enjoying the beach and the bay. It was easy to launch our kayaks on the beach, also fished off the shore. Would definitely stay here again. The house had everything we could ask for. We cooked all our meals and the kitchen was well stocked. The house has lots of room for groups to spend time together. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

The great vacation

Loved the home and proximity to the beach and bay! The beach was perfect, there were no crowds, only other families enjoying the time together. We loved the area and surrounding towns, the aquarium and the springs kept us busy during the only bad weather day we had. We still have some research to do on the fishing, but we were satisfied nonetheless. We will be back!!!

Great location not the cleanest

We loved being right on the beach and the house was very roomy for our family! The house was not as clean as you would want considering how much the cleaning fees cost. Many of the sheets had stains on them, dirty clothes behind beds, foot prints on bottom bunks when we arrived.

The Bunker was great!

Loved this house! Loved that it was both beach and bay front. House was very comfortable with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed exploring the tide pools that were right in front of the house during low tide. So many sea creatures! We have been vacationing in Alligator Point for over ten years but decided we needed to switch to a house with more bedrooms and this one was perfect! We are looking forward to staying there again next year.

Great House

We have stayed at Alligator Point for about 8 years now. We love the quiet beach experience away from the hustle & bustle of work & life. This was the first time we stayed at Bunker House. It is a beautiful home and was uniquely decorated. Loved all the art. It was spacious with the 2 floor levels and the 2 decks on the beach side & on the bay side. They had everything you could possibly think of. Tish was a great host. We will definitely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Tisha

Host profile image
The Bunker was built on the site of an army bunker, used for training soldiers for the Normandy landing during WWII. The dune on site used to have a little room inside with openings for shooting a target down the beach.
After the war the property was developed and sold for vacation houses.
My grandmother bought two lots and a house was built on one which burned to the ground in less that a year due to a faulty generator. Electricity had not been run yet.
My parents then constructed a house in 1953 and we spent every summer there as children.
In 2006 the Bunker was constructed as a permanent home and the old house and property were sold. The second floor was used as the main floor and the third floor was for my son, daughter and six grandchildren.
After my husband past away, I moved to Tallahassee and offered the house for rent.
Currently there are three generations of family members enjoying the beach house.
A grandmother, a daughter with three children, a son with three children and their spouses.
Alligator Point is a beautiful, relaxing get a way that we treasure for our selves and hope that you and your family will love as well.

Why they chose this property

There are beautiful views from every window where Mother Nature puts on a show 24 hours a day. We are high enough to see for miles but close enough to dolphin watch.
The star show from the top deck is a favorite night time activity that is enjoyed by every family member.

What makes this property unique

As a “gulf to bay” property, you get the benefit of the white sand, gulf beach as well as the protective bay, Alligator Harbor. Feel free to bring your boat and tie it up right in back of the house.
