About this property

Tropicana Bungalow - Retro Gem Near Fort Gregg-Adams and Old Towne

Bright. Retro. Unapologetically fun. Our Palm Beach-inspired bungalow is the kind of place that makes you want to mix a drink, throw on some music, and forget your to-do list — at least for a few days.
Whether you're visiting a loved one at nearby Fort Gregg-Adams, exploring the history and hidden gems of Old Towne Petersburg, or using us as a stylish home base for a Richmond weekend, the Tropicana is ready for you.

The bedroom features a comfortable queen bed with crisp cozy bedding, dedicated work space (if you must!) and en suite bath with stall shower — your own private retreat after a full day out. The living room offers flexible sleeping with a fold-down futon. We also provide an air mattress and pack 'n play if needed.
Step outside to the front porch for your morning coffee or evening cocktail. Backyard (partially fenced) is convenient for those traveling with pups. We're a small property with big personality!

-10 minutes to Fort Gregg-Adams
-Less than a mile from Old Towne Petersburg — antique shops, Civil War history, the Appomattox River Trail, and some seriously good food and coffee
-30 minutes to Richmond for day trips to the VMFA, Belle Isle, The National, and more

-Sleeps up to 4 (queen bed + futon + air mattress)
-Kitchen with Keurig, stove/oven, microwave, small fridge/freezer, essential cooking supplies.
-Stackable washer/dryer, WiFi, and onsite parking.

Only thing is says sleeps 4. Just 2 of us stayed and space adequate. Maybe a bit too cramped for 4 adults. Couch is retro and folds out to bed but is hard. Overall great experience!

Short and Sweet Stay

My husband, dog, and I were traveling through and needed a place to stay for the night - this funky, fun home did the trick! We had a restful night and started our day right with breakfast at a recommended local coffee house. Perfect rest stop!

Cozy place with interesting decor. Someone came knocking on the door late at night then was hanging around the yard. He said owners let him “hang around”

Hi Patricia. I am sorry for the late night interruption during your stay. We have since added security at the entrance to avoid this happening again.
