Just what We Needed

Clean, quiet, private—Perfect!! We were back in Florida to resolve a dispute abt the damage to our house back in September . We needed a quiet retreat not too far from our still -ravished house. We eventually worked stuff out and afterwards were able to come back to our retreat— with the plants and birds and all the amenities we needed- complete kitchen , great WiFi. Privacy and quiet. Contacts with the host were minimal but were always prompt and pleasant. We definitely recommend. Oh, and the washer/dryer were definitely appreciated. Just a note abt the area— it might look a little funky at first but it’s your normal, authentic Gulfport neighborhood. It’s safe and clean. Not within walking distance to much but quiet and residential. We actually live abt 3 miles west and spend a lot of time in Gulfport.

Mockingbird bungalow

This was exactly what you want in a VRBO property and host. Easy communication, detailed instructions on how to find the property how to check in, where to park. It was in a good residential neighborhood. The property is just as described and shown in the photos. The outdoor area has two chairs and a table. It’s very private because it’s surrounded with a 6 foot Attractive, solid wood fence that gives you total privacy. The kitchen was new and worked perfectly - has a microwave and toaster Keurig coffee maker. The bathroom was new. Enough hot water and pressure from tankless WH. Bed was comfortable. I was a solo traveler on business, but I would definitely stay here again with my wife. It’s large enough for a couple. Great place

Great little home away from home

Enjoyed our stay while visiting Eckerd College which was just a short drive away. The house was adorable and very well appointed with every inch of space maximized for usefulness. We found it easy to get around Gulfport and St Pete from this location. Appreciated the accommodation of our early check in request too. Highly recommend for 1-2 guests.

Perfect Property

This was the perfect property, quiet, well-appointed and conveniently located. I hate staying in hotels for business and The Tiny Mockingbird was a perfect solution. Michelle was communicative and the property is as described in the listing.

Cozy Getaway

We loved our stay at the Tiny Mockingbird Bungalow! It’s the perfect size for two, and even with its small size has all the needed kitchen amenities. Bonus points for the washer/dryer!

A Delight to Stay at the Tiny Mockingbird Bungalow

When we first go there, the metal crab and ornaments on the gate greeted us warmly, we knew we were in the right place! The bangalow is truly adorable! Very small but just right for 2. It's beautifully done with fresh, clean furnishings and decor. The large washer/dryer was amazing! It was close to Gulfport and to the freeway and downtown St Pete. All in all we had a lovely stay and wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you Michelle, you were a great host, very reposnsive and helpful!
