There is a smaller flat-screen TV in the bedroom. **Please note that the cottage is perfect for a couple or a family with one or two younger children.

Our cottage in Gulfport was awesome; quaint and cute and very efficient. Not only did we have the space we needed inside the cozy cottage... we also had an inviting front porch to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Make sure you take advantage of the guest bicycles and tour Gulfport. Absolutely adorable!

Cozy, comfortable, perfect little cottage in Gulfport. Great location: 2-3 block walk in any direction got you to shops, restaurants, bars and music, or the beach. Gulfport Beach on Boca Ciega Bay is just the right size for enjoying the sun, sand, and water without feeling crowded and the sunsets to the west over the water are breathtaking. The owners, David and Margaret, are easy to contact, and are friendly and helpful. Would totally recommend the "Green Cottage" for a happy stay in Gulfport.

Yes, the green cottage is small, but it was perfect for two adults and a small senior pupper for a week's stay. It was clean and comfortable, and owner David responded quickly when we had a problem with a dripping A/C unit. Close to the Village Courtyard and Waterfront. We walked almost everywhere, and enjoyed listening to music from the North End Tap House and Kitchen stage every evening. Locals were friendly! St. Pete and St. Pete Beach are a short drive away. Street parking is hard to come by at certain hours so the alley-side parking was a blessing.
We loved our stay, hated to leave, and already know we will come back again if David and Margaret will have us!

My grandson and I visited family for a long weekend in Gulfport. The cottage was perfect for our stay. It was close to family and close to everything in Gulfport. Nicely updated and clean. Off street parking. Beach chairs, beach towels and bicycles available for use. Kitchen nicely stocked. Would visit again!

For just a night or 2 it was great. The cottage is close to everything and met our needs. It was great to be able to use the courtyard to entertain my daughter and her friends who are students at Eckerd College. My only complaints would be lack of seating (there is only one small couch - no chairs), the AC unit cut on and off all night and the window shades did not block all the outside light out so it was difficult to sleep.

We stayed at the property for a week. This is the worst VRBO we have EVER stayed in. I would upload pictures, but there is no option to do that. This review may sound choppy b/c it has a limit on what you can write.
I have no idea how they possibly had gotten all the rave reviews. The only thing that was nice from our stay was the other renters we met (3 houses on one property).
First, it is very tiny. We knew that coming in. However, with the public visibility and lack of privacy you needed to keep the blinds closed, which made it feel like a cell.
Everything was DIRTY. The walls had years of grimy hand/fingers, especially around sides of doors, light switches, and door handles. The front exterior of the home was worse, lime green siding that is covered with dirt. Friends from the area were appalled by condition of the home - called it squeezy.
On arrival, getting dog settled in I spilled some of the dog water on the floor and wiped it up, the paper towel was BLACK. Thats how dirty the floors were. I mopped them three times to clean, not what I wanted to do on vacation. There were baseboard pieces missing and what was there was covered dirt and a lot of dog hair.
We rent a homes with kitchens so we don't have to eat out a lot. After checking the kitchen, the fridge, the coffee pot, garbage can cabinet, dish rack, and oven were disgusting. Neither my husband or I felt comfortable eating there. Garbage cabinet had coffee grounds, stains, and left-over dried food in it. Fridge had dead bug, dried liquid, and left over crumbs. I was going to wash two coffee mugs for coffee but even the dish rack was disgustingly dirty. The oven had hundreds of "no see'ems" crawling all over it, and roaches at night. Good thing they had spray for us to use or others left but slept with all the lights on. Woke up with several bug bites on my legs and stomach during our stay.

Gulfport is a quirky, quaint, artsy village on the water. Great place to have fun and relax. Beach, restaurants, dog park, tennis and pickleball courts are a short walk. The cottage is steps from the center of town. It is clean and nicely appointed. There are two nice bicycles available as well. Thanks David for a great vacation. Bob and Robin from Rhode Island.

Gulfport is a great destination. Sitting on this quaint front porch each night reminded us of what an excellent choice we made. Everyone stops to greet you - if you have a cute dog, it’s a PLUS! So much to do. Loved our stay.

Sweet little place to call home in the area. Bigger inside than it looks. Great tv/internet, comfy furnishings, good hot water. Bonus: all the soap, TP, paper towels and more that we needed for our 3-night stay. Many VRBO’s don’t supply these, and it’s so nice just to get there and not immediately have to run out to the store for supplies. Super responsive owner as well. Recommended.

This was a very spontaneous first time visit to Gulfport Beach. The location was ideal- the most amazing coffee was just a few houses down at SumitrA- AMAZING breakfast at Stella’s and fabulous Italian food at Pías! We will definitely be back. The cottage was spotless, well furnished and had everything we needed! Thank you!

Cute little cottage right on the side of downtown Gulfport. We really like Gulfport and vacation here yearly. We were a little nervous being so close to the bars and live music but things quieted down quickly at night and had no issues. Nice beach chairs, cottage had good amenities. Only complaint is I have a bad back and couldn't find a comfortable sitting spot inside. The bed was comfortable though! Thanks for a nice stay.

Great location, many things within walking distance.
Had a great stay. Very nice. Had everything we needed. A nice front porch with my a table and 2 chairs to sit,relax and watch the world go by. Parking easy no problem with the private parking area. You gotta go to Pia, it's walking distance from the unit. Theres a great place called Stella's for breakfast. 2 nice coffee shops, a bakery, a place to get beer and just sit and relax. All within we alminf distance.

The cottage was perfect for our king weekend. Our son was graduating from Stetson Law School which is very close. We were able to go to the beaches within 15 minutes and walk to lots of restaurants and coffee shops. I have been ti Gulfport sever times and wish it would have found this place soon. The owner David greeted us on Friday and had recently done some work to the improve his property. We took advantage of the bikes one morning and toured the area. I would stay again for sure!
