Private tropical paradise 155 5 ⭐️ reviews. No cleaning, pet fees. Clothing opt.


Your own private tropical paradise right in the middle of everything… Total Privacy, Clothing optional… No cleaning or pet fees…
5 Years of “ Booked Solid”, half of our guests return for another "Bungalow Experience". Recent guests here for their 7th Bungalow Experience... Thank you!
Be sure to read our 155 Five Star guest reviews...Wow!
Bungalow is for sale…

Travelers who cancel at least 60 days before check-in will get back 100% of the amount they've paid. If they cancel after that point, they will not get a refund.

Duncan's Tropical Beach Bungalow is one of a kind in Southwest Florida. Perfect for a honeymoon, anniversary, or, romantic getaway. Complete privacy...Clothing Optional...The ' Bungalow ' has the feel of the islands with solid yellow pine and Mexican tile floors, high endj West Indies style furnishings, Florida shutters, crown molding in every room, gourmet kitchen...even an outdoor shower adjacent to the master bath for a unique shower under the stars.

French doors open onto a literal 'jungle' of palms (over 170) and bananas, two sandy beaches bordering the pool. Wriggle your feet in the sand, take a dip in the oversize solar heated pool, or, take a nap . The vegetation is so dense, you can skinny dip in complete privacy. You would never guess you were surrounded by civilization.

Everyone without exception has loved the Bungalow...close to everything. Please read our 155 Five Star Reviews
The Bungalow is WI-FI equipped; stay connected … private office for remote work .
We welcome furry 4 legged creatures and the 'jungle' is completely fenced so they can run free. We simply ask that you behave as responsible pet owners...

Located in the historic McGregor Blvd. district of Fort Myers, Duncan's Tropical Beach Bungalow is conveniently located to our famous beaches, Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel/Captiva Islands, about 20-25 minutes; Regional SW Int'l airport is 25 minutes away.
We opened our 'paradise retreat' to guests in 2008. 75% of our guests have returned 2 or more times...One couple recently returned for their 9th visit...pretty much says it all!

We realize that our prices are substantially below market for similar properties, (if you could find one) ...we also suspect that once you experience our lifestyle, you will be back!
IN AN EFFORT TO KEEP RATES AS LOW AS POSSIBLE, GUESTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ELECTRIC THEY CONSUME. Let the “Fuelish Ones” do the heavy lifting…
Cancellation Policy: Cancellations prior to 60days, full refund.
your host, duncan

Paradise Found

This bungalow is a quiet - extremely clean - and an exceptionally private paradise getaway yet close to everything. The pictures don’t do the property justice. It’s adorable, comfortable, and they’ve thought of everything you will need. Oversized pool and comfy furniture and beds. Can’t wait to return!!

Love, love, love everything!

Hands down, this was the best vacation home I have ever stayed in. It has everything as promised in the description: it's a great safe, quiet neighborhood, close to supermarket and restaurants, very nicely decorated, comfy beds and it is clean! Plus it is fairly close to Ft Myers Beach and Sanibel Island. However, the best part is the backyard with the pool. I could have just stayed in for the whole week as it basically is a perfect private beach. This was definitely one of the best vacations I ever had and we will definitely be back for more!

A nice couple's getaway!

We had a great time spending the week at the bungalow! The backyard is beautiful and very private. The pool is great and lots of places to sit and enjoy the outdoors. Even in the August heat, we spent a lot of time outside. The house is very comfortable. As hurricane Idalia formed in the gulf and moved north, Duncan and his daughter communicated with us, letting us know the hurricane's path and if we needed to be concerned or not. We felt very well taken care of, especially for those days as the hurricane formed and moved past the area (fortunately far to the west). Duncan is a great communicator, proactively reaching out and quickly answering all questions. We highly recommend the bungalow for a couple's getaway!

Not Paradise

It started bad right off the get go. Neighbors life on top of each other. Booming LOUD music started at 10am and got louder as the day goes. We’re forced inside before dark. Next two days were the same. Chickens on the other side. Allen was quick to try and help but the police came to the door. Next day music neighbors shot fireworks at us and the Raines down on us in the pool. We had reservations for two weeks but day three we left. Allen got us a refund but then accused us of destroying the house and claiming our dog saturated his carpet. He even threatened us that he would make sure we would never rent again anywhere. Don’t go here. It’s not Paradise at all. Worse vacation EVER!

The Bungalow is very cozy and comfy inside and very beautiful outside. We stayed for six weeks and were disappointed we had to leave as well as our dog who was in heaven as she had free access to the backyard. Any maintenance problems were addressed immediately by Duncan. Also the place was very convenient to a number of good restaurants. We will miss Duncan!
