This is a 1971 vintage Streamline Empress cottage in Bradenton, Florida with a pool, hot tub, slide, playground, and nearby beaches.
It’s available to book on Airbnb via Micah and Jana, and I think it would make a pretty amazing stay. In fact, I’m adding it to my wish list right now so I can stay here in the future. And while we’re on the topic, have you ever considered using an Airstream as a stationary tiny home, kind of like in this situation? Let us know your thoughts about that idea in the comments, please.

1971 Vintage Streamline Empress Cottage in Bradenton, Florida
The Streamline Empress was completely renovated. They actually even removed the bathroom to create more space inside.
They figured most people would appreciate the larger bathroom on the property, which is steps away.
Removing the bathroom really just made it into one open space.
This trailer turned cottage is bookable on Airbnb and is located in Bradenton, Florida near the beach. By the way, this is a California king bed.
The way they decorated the interior is simple, luxurious, and modern.
The custom couch also works as a twin sleeper. You also get a live cactus as a roommate, hehe.
There’s hidden storage everywhere, and loads of natural light coming in thanks to the abundance of windows.
The kitchen has just about everything you can ask for.
The full-size bathroom is less than 50-ft. away.
There’s even a little playground on the property.
And, of course, a custom hot tub with a slide that takes you into the swimming pool.
