Ruth’s Cottage is located in the heart of historic downtown. This is where South Florida charm and tradition blends with the comforts of modern luxury. All of Delray is within your reach, but, you’ll find it’s difficult to leave the comforts of this home for long. This is the finest neighborhood in classic Delray Beach. Rich in both history and amenities, Ruth’s is the ultimate Delray experience.

Ruth’s is family-friendly. You’ll have access to games, pool toys, play pens and highchairs if needed. The washer and dryer in the laundry room are brand new – but the basketball hoop in the pool has seen many, many championship battles!

The uncommon pleasure of this secluded paradise is located in the middle of the simple chic that is Delray Beach. Buttoned down luxury is extended throughout an expansive floor plan. Our remodeled kitchen, family room and patio provide an opportunity to gather and enjoy this paradise together. And, the three bedrooms, living room and dining area provide seclusion and privacy as needed for quiet times during your stay. The jewel of the property is a heated, 20’x 30’ walk-in pool surrounded by a tropical garden.

This house is located North of Atlantic Avenue and East of Lake Ida with easy access to highways, attractions and downtown Delray Beach, a popular, award-winning beach town.

The main street in Delray Beach is Atlantic Avenue, and it spans all the way down to a pristine beach. The ‘Ave’ is popular for visitors and locals thanks to the many art galleries, upscale shops, fine restaurants and nightly entertainment. Seasonal events for the downtown area feature Delray Beach Fashion Week, Savor the Avenue, the Delray Affair and the annual 100-foot Christmas tree.

Delray Beach is located between Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale Florida, and it’s the ideal destination for a vacation with your friends and family any time of year. It’s a pristine haven and one of the most popular beaches in Palm Beach County, Florida. Delray Beach is an intimate town filled with art galleries, upscale shops, fine restaurants and nightly entertainment.

It was named the Most Fun Small Town in the U.S.A. by Rand McNally, USA Today and the Travel Channel. Delray Beach offers the kind of culture and sophistication you wouldn’t expect to find in a funky, walkable beach town.

    This house and host was the best experience we have ever had with vrbo. The house is gorgeous with plenty of room and all the amenities you could imagine. When we first arrived at the house there was a storm the day before so the pool was pretty dirty. The owner had the cleaning service there the very next day, and said to call him with any other issues. This house is located in a beautiful area of Del Ray and one mile from downtown. We will definitely be returning!!!!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house is located within 15 minutes of great restaurants, shops, Atlantic Ave, and of course, the beaches. It’s also within walking and biking distance to Lake Ida. The house Is well stocked, with upscale furnishings. The pool is large, and the backyard is spacious. Cleanliness is A. Steve is very responsive. We would stay again for sure.

    Spectacular house that’s cozy with a stunning pool backyard and lush landscaping. I would stay here over and over again. It’s remodeled to a tee with all the amenities you could hope for. Everything about this property is 10 out of 10. Steve was great to work with in booking the house. Cheers.

    The Cottage was actually better in person than on line. The house is completely stocked and set up for your every need. From new bed linens/ towels/ beach gear/ bikes. I can’t think of one thing that I would suggest to make this listing better. The backyard/ pool setting is a true oasis that we are already missing. We spent two delightful weeks here! Highly recommend this spot!

    The location was literally 5 min to anything we did but we stayed in the backyard and in the pool most of our 2 weeks in Delray Beach. It was like a tropical oasis. The amenities were top notch, the place was spotless and adorably decorated. We wish we could have stayed longer!

    Steve's home was amazing! The layout was perfect, the kitchen stocked, and it was very CLEAN! We love the Lake Ida are of Delray as it is quiet, walkable, yet accessible to downtown. The backyard was so serene and the perfect size, and we hope to stay again!
