Charming 1930s Bayside Bungalow in Spanish Triplex - 1 Minute from Best Beach
About this house rental
Located in Tierra Verde, this charming house for R 5,156 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. We have separate entrances only 3 steps up from ground level. We are approved by the City of St Pete Beach for short-term rentals. ---------------------------------------- The Bayside Bungalow has French doors that open off the bedroom onto your own private deck surrounded by palm trees and flowers. Breakfast outside, grill dinner on our BBQ, or just read in the lazy afternoon on our spacious new deck. The bedroom is bright and airy with a new queen-sized bed and French doors that allow in evening air. An overhead fan reduces the need for the new AC unit. If the mood strikes, bedside are the switches for the garden accent lights around the deck. The pretty bedroom has light wicker furniture, a closet, flat screen TV and Blu-Ray DVD player. Of course, fine linens and plush towels are provided. The living room, decorated in Floridian style, has a sleeper sofa and armchair along with a large flat screen TV and wicker desk with a high-speed internet connection. A closet provides additional storage for clothes. Central AC provides cooling and heating. The eat-in kitchen has a new electric range with a ceramic stove top. The beautifully restored cabinets, large refrigerator, microwave, blender, toaster, coffee maker, and the usual assortment of pots, pans, utensils, dishes, and flatware make meal preparation a pleasure. A small glass-top table in the kitchen is fine for eating. You may also choose to eat out on the deck where a table and chairs provide a private eating and relaxing area. Next to the deck, there is a gas grill for BBQs. Nearby, Shaner's is a great place to get some fantastic meat or fish for grilling or a hot sandwich. Our guidebook containing personal restaurant reviews and menus may tempt you to visit some of the local eateries. Why Choose Us and This location: * Clean, well maintained, nicely decorated, well supplied, friendly, experienced hosts. * This is an updated historic house on the ground floor with beautiful gardens. * This is not a condo. * It is on a quiet street, steps from the beach entrance. * A storm in the Fall of 2023 wiped out the dunes and beach on the lower 1/3 of Pass-a-grille. Although the City trucked in sand from a quarry in the middle of Florida and planted sea oats and sea grapes, it will look pretty ugly for years. We are in the middle of the section that was not affected. Our dunes and beach are still natural. * The beach access on the end of our street is wide and easy to traverse. Turn left (south) and you are on the public beach. Turn right (north) and you are on the wider, beautiful private beach you are free to use with less crowds and miles of walking. * We are one of only 14 properties permitted by the City to do short term rentals in the residential zones of Pass-a-grille. * We take loving care of our property. It is up-to-date and nicely decorated. * We have been renting for 20+ years and many guests return year after year. Communications & Entertainment: We use wired and wireless high speed cable internet. There are jacks in the living room with a wicker desk for your laptop, and in the bedroom. There are cable flat screen TVs and Blu-Ray Players in the living room and bedroom. For foreign visitors, there is a phone line available that is shared between the 3 units - local calls only. If you need the phone, please make arrangements when making the reservation. Washer/Dryer: There is a modern high efficiency front-loading clothes washer in the kitchen. The dryer is in a shed on the deck. There is also a clothesline that can be strung across the deck for air drying clothes. Beach Equipment: There are beach towels available. In the front alcove and along the side walkway are beach chairs, an umbrella, and beach toys for your use. On the right of the front entrance arch is a freshwater hose for washing off sand. Parking: We will provide you with a single parking pass for residential parking on the street right in front of the Triplex. Additional cars may be parked on the east end of the street, which is not posted. The parking pass must be returned when leaving. Guidebook: We have made up a guidebook to help you enjoy the area. Included are extensive restaurant reviews and menus, suggested activities and special places to visit. There are aerial maps to help you get a lay of the land (and sea), as well as a map of the Pinellas Rail trail. We've also included some special places to shop. We welcome your contributions to this guide. We require your address and confirmation of your cell phone before your reservation is considered complete.

We chose the bungalow not knowing the area and its close proximity to the Don Cesar. While the bed was queen, the space was adequate for my wife and I and had a cool old school, beachy vibe.
we found that St. Pete’s Beach is very cool and the home was in walking distance to everything.
The owners were proactive in communicating and very clear on the check-in/check-out process.
All in all, a nice location that worked well for our needs.

This was a perfect place for my husband to take it easy after surgery. the home was cozy and comfortable. We spent most of our days hanging out at the beach, which was only a short walk away. Wonderful beach for finding shells. There were plenty of nearby restaurants for the evenings that we ate out. My favorite evening was spent hanging out on the back deck. In addition to a grill outside, the kitchen had everything I needed for cooking the delicious meat and seafood that I purchased around the corner at Shaner’s. We look forward to visiting again.

Fantastic location! Steps from the beach, and a short walk to a couple of restaurants and a convenience store, but on a remarkably peaceful street. The unit is charming, well-appointed and clean, and the hosts are warm and welcoming. I will definitely be back!

Just what we were looking for
Tom and Leslie are very welcoming and extremely helpful for anyone new to the area. Their recommendations were on point and the location of their property is a block away from the beach.
My kids and wife love our time in St Pete. They wanted me to extend our stay. Thanks guys for the great time!

So close to beach!
Check in was simple and the listing was accurately described. It’s a very quiet neighborhood and was perfect for the one family member who lives in the area to visit with us. The living area and eat-in-kitchen were fine for us. A great deli/butcher/seafood shop within walking distance was so very convenient! Highly recommend.

It Really Is A Charming Bungalow
This Bungalow was everything we thought, and so much more. Nicely updated, wonderfully clean, lots of amenities, and best yet, steps to beautiful Pass-A-Grille beach. If there had to be a suggestion, we'd say the wicker furniture in the bedroom & the closets could be updated to match the rest of this wonderful place. The amazing host had several great suggestions of places to go and things to do to make our stay the best it could be. We'd definitely stay again.

We loved our week at this beautiful, historical home with every amenity you need to feel at home and have a fun beach stay — situated on one of the prettiest beach neighborhoods on the Gulf Coast.
Everything’s close by — Shaner’s land and sea market for great sammies, seafood and prepared items to cook at home, walkable restaurants and a free beach ride will take you to the other restaurants up the coast. Leslie and Tom were so helpful, welcoming and friendly. We highly recommend staying at this charming home.

Great Location, Beautiful Beach!
This one-bedroom unit is in an historic, older dwelling. It was built in the early 1900s in a charming, Spanish style. The interior has been updated and is comfortable and well-equipped with good appliances, plenty of dishes and cookware. The location is great, just a block from the public beach, so catching a great sunset is easy to do. In warmer weather than what we had in January, the shady deck would be a great place to relax and read. We didn't really use it.

Leslie had everything we needed for a perfect vacation - lots of beach chairs, noodles, umbrella, towels and even sunscreen! We had extra tp, laundry soap, foil, etc. plus a grill with an extra tank. The house was immaculate and the bed and furniture were very comfortable. Leslie and Tom have prepared a huge notebook of restaurants and attractions if you’re not familiar with the area. This is a fantastic historic home that has been wonderfully updated in an Old Florida style. The location is perfect - the beach is a half block away and there are lots of restaurants and a great meat market nearby. Pass-a-Grille is a unique peaceful area and Leslie and Tom’s house reflects that.

8th honeymoon
We loved our little getaway for our 8th honeymoon...we are locals living close to downtown St Petersburg and never experienced a beach getaway here in St Pete. It was lovely I chose this area because of the quietness and quaintness of the area.... I have been to this area before during the day but its not the same as staying for a while ..... We needed that and wanted to be around less people and be more about each other. Rained a couple days but we LOVE the rainy days .... The place had a very comfy bed nice patio and so close to the beach .....would recommend to the locals and to the far aways .....go and enjoy where we live....cause St Pete rocks !!!

Delightful
I absolutely loved my stay at Leslie’s. It was the perfect distance from the beach. Close enough that we could run home and grab a snack. I also really appreciated the beach supplies- chairs, umbrellas, even a boogie board! This place is fantastic for a couple.

Pass-A-Grille Vacation
This quaint property is ideal. It's literally less than a minute walk to the beach and about 12-14 blocks from downtown Pass-A-Grille eateries, shops and can be easily walked. The outside patio is surrounded by tropical foliage, plants and trees and is perfect for enjoying drinks or even a meal at the bistro table and chairs or bench seating. Don't miss an opportunity to stay in one of their bungalows! The property owners were terrific.

The property was easily accessible between shopping, beach, and restaurants. The free rides transportation was very useful and reliable. The owners Leslie & Tom were easy to work with and responded in a timely fashion. We highly recommend booking with them.

Perfect Getaway
The Triplex was well kept. Even though we had one of the units it was big enough to feel like its own little house, no noise coming through the walls. The spot was only one block from the beach so it was perfect to walk down from sunrise to sunset or go check and see if the turtles are hatching in the night. It was a great Central hub to all of the exploring we did to the multiple beaches to the North and the South. The restaurant and sightseeing advice provided by the hosts was amazing and really gave us a tour that we otherwise would not have had and we experienced a lot of good food. Especially the Boardwalk Cafe! Thank you Leslie and Tom for a wonderful 50th birthday getaway with my sister! It was everything we needed and more. Everything is very well explained if you print out the guide they send you and we printed out the restaurant guide they can send you separately if you're interested.

Clean house with all the items needed to have a good time at the beach, including beach towels, chairs, and toys. Great communication with the owners. Very short walk to the beach and received a parking pass to use during our stay. The rental is not an open planned house- thus the living room is one room, followed by the kitchen/ dining area, and bedroom with a nice access to the patio. There are plenty of windows to provide good natural light in most of the rooms. Rental is a good size for a couple or small family.
