The bus was perfect. We were only there for one night, but we will definitely be back. This is a five star recommendation if you need to get away with your significant other.

This was easily the best way to spend my lodging money allocated for our one night stay. It was the perfect place to stay with my 4-year old daughter. She didn't want to leave haha! This is definitely a better space for those under 6 foot though simply because it's a renovated bus! How cool!! Also, I wouldn't suggest it for any person who's physically impaired simply because it's a renovated bus. I felt safe, cozy, and nostalgic being able to spend our night in South FL here!

Staying in the converted school bus was hands-down one of the most fun and memorable Airbnb experiences we’ve ever had. The bus was thoughtfully designed, cozy, and surprisingly comfortable—every inch was used creatively, making it feel both charming and functional. What truly made the experience unforgettable was my teenage daughter’s reaction. From the moment she saw the bus, she was grinning ear to ear and proudly telling everyone that I was officially the coolest mom ever for booking it. Watching her light up and brag about our stay was priceless and made the whole experience even more special. The bus felt like an adventure, a tiny-home dream, and a story we’ll be telling for years to come. If you’re looking for a unique, joyful, and creative place to stay—this is it. We absolutely loved it and would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

The getaway I should have stretched out! This bus was so charming and made me feel right at home. I cannot wait to rebook in the summer and be a total beach bum for a week! My husband and I admired the craftsmanship and details. So cute and homey.

We stayed at the Beach Bus over Christmas. Jeff and Lexie were excellent hosts. The bus was so cute and beachy. We weren’t sure if we’d feel cramped, but it was surprisingly easy to enjoy. Very easy to access beaches and the neighborhood was nice and quiet. We would definitely recommend staying here.
