Description

After a day enjoying all the Space Coast has to offer come back to your own private oasis!

Our home “Sweetpalm” is spacious and comfy with a large pool, and a super cool tiki bar on an acre in a country setting. We are an hour from the gates of Disney, and about seventeen minutes to beaches. Close to golf, restaurants, shopping, eco adventures and just 14 miles to the Space Coast Complex.

The kids will entertain themselves in the pool or playing a game of badminton or bean toss. The guys will hang in the tiki bar watching tv, playing ring toss, maybe even drinking a beer as they cook something wonderful on the grill. After dinner, maybe s’mores at the backyard fire pit. Even your doggies will be happy in the enormous fenced in back yard.

The Layout

Sweetpalm has a split bedroom plan with an open living and dining room, a wood burning fireplace, a game nook off the gourmet kitchen, comfy beds, smart TVs, and renovated bathrooms. Sweetpalm comfortably sleeps six with a king in the master suite, one queen and two twins. A pack and play is available if needed.

The Kitchen

Easily whip up delicious meals in the fully equipped gourmet kitchen. We live in Sweetpalm from October till end of May so this isn’t your typical rental. It is our home and we love to cook. We have pretty much every kitchen gadget or serving piece you will need, All Clad and Le Creuset cookware, a lobster pot, a paella pan, even a double boiler if you need to melt chocolate. We have an Instant Pot, Crock Pot and an air fryer. If you are the first one up, make a k-cup while preparing a full pot of coffee for the rest of your gang. You are welcome to use any of the pantry items, spices, flour, sugar, oil, etc.

The Neighborhood

Sweetpalm is in a safe and quiet country neighborhood on a dead-end street, but still convenient to shopping and adventures. The wooded property across the street is owned by a local rancher and is home to deer, turkeys, rabbits and every once in a while cows. We have neighbors with chickens and you can even buy fresh eggs two houses down.

Pets

We are happy to host your small well behaved dogs but do require you to obtain written approval from us first. There is a pet fee of $100.00. Because we allow dogs, if you have pet allergy issues, Sweetpalm will not be a good fit for you.

Security

We feel very safe in our neighborhood. We live in an area where the neighbors all know each other, we have golf cart parades and block parties and we all look out for each other.

In addition we have installed a security cameras on the front of the house. The cameras are aimed at the street and driveway. A picture of the area the cameras record are provided in the guest book for you.

We have a security alarm on the door going out to the pool that you may set if you are traveling with young children.

Military Discount/Other Discounts

10% discount is offered to active or retired U.S. military members, and a special offer will be sent after ID has been verified. Please contact us prior to booking so that we may apply the discount.

We don’t offer additional discounts..so please don’t ask. We believe Sweetpalm is priced appropriately for the area and amenities we offer.

Kind and respectful

We welcome EVERYONE, regardless of culture, gender, ethnicity and ideology, (ok, almost everybody, at least one of you has to be 30 or older). As long as you are kind, respectful, tidy, and house rules kind of following people, you are welcome in our home.

Guests with mobility issues

We have two steps up to enter the house, a small step down to the pool area, neither of the bathrooms are handicap accessible.

Check-in is at 4:00 p.m., and check-out is before 10:30 unless arranged before arrival.

Parking

Our long driveway has ample room for your cars and if you are bringing your boat to enjoy our great local fishing spots, no worries, lots of room for your trailer.

Lock Outs

Our home office and garage are locked out to renters. Two bedroom closets, a few drawers and cabinets are also locked. We have made ample provisions for your hanging clothes and there is plenty of drawer space.

Cleaning

Sweetpalm is professionally cleaned. Please rest assured that special precautions will be taken to assure disinfection of all surfaces between guests.

Pool Heater

The pool does have a heater, which is generally not turned on during summer months. The pool is set to 82 during winter months. The pool is very large and if nighttime temperatures get below 60 the pool will not heat up to 82.

The Space Coast


Melbourne is a great area, beautiful uncrowded beaches, close to Disney and the theme parks, Port Canaveral, and the Viera Sports Complex. Our Historic Downtown is unique with interesting shopping, restaurants and bars. If you have any special interests or requests, please ask.

    This is my second time staying here and again I am so happy with Paula’s hospitality. Their house is spotless and makes me feel at home. I love how she greets you with a goodie bag with good snacks and coffee and a take me home bag. They’re such great hosts and I highly recommend their home. Any questions you may have she responds so fast as well. Highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back.

    Well equipped house that was comfortable for everyone. We enjoyed the pool, the birds around the yard, and cooking meals together in the fantastic kitchen. It was a great stay, about 20 minutes to the ball fields. The hosts had great recommendations on local resources and we enjoyed an airboat tour, bioluminescent rafting, and a day at the Sebastian Inlet swimming with Manantees. It was a great Florida experience!

    Where do I begin? The sweetpalm exceeded our expectations. We came down for our son’s 1st birthday and the location was perfect being right off of 95. This home reminded us of our own. It was clean, and plenty of space for our son to use his walker around the house and have his playpen set up. The pool and tiki area is absolutely beautiful and the yard is huge if you have furbabies. The hosts Paula and Tom were top notch. If I had any questions they were there to help even though I rarely had questions since they have everything in detail in their welcome book which was perfectly done. They even left an adorable welcome package for us when we checked in. If you’re wondering if you should book the sweetpalm, don’t hesitate because this is the nicest house in the area. It’s clean and hosts are as sweet as they come. We will definitely be back since we have Family here. They make you feel right at home. We even loved that they had a tv in the kitchen so when we did family breakfast we could watch tv as we cooked. Speaking of cooking they have everything you could possibly need to make cook breakfast and dinner. 5 stars!! I would give more if I could. Thank you Paula and Tom we appreciate you opening up your home to us, we will definitely be back

    My wife, daughter, and my self were in town for a softball tournament up at the USSSA Space Coast Complex. This was our 2nd year coming to the tournament. Last year, the worst part of the trip was the property we stayed at. This year, the property was probably the best part of the trip! The house was super cute! And the outdoor area in the back yard, was awesome! Playing softball all day in the FL heat and humidity, then coming back to swim in the private pool, its the only way to go! House had everything we needed for the week, minus some personal items we specifically wanted/needed. Home was very clean. The hosts were just as great as the property. Super fast to respond before and during the stay. Very accommodating on anything we reached out on. This was by far our best VRBO experience yet. Both the host and the property were A+. Highly recommend and if we get invited back for more softball next year, we will most likely try and grab this place up again!

    SweetPalm is a fabulous property that offered my family a place to reunite and relax with our Oldest son and his family that lives in Melbourne. The layout of the home is terrific to entertain with the great pool and Tiki bar setup. The 8 local grandkids visited daily with our youngest Son and our youngest granddaughter and of course Nana and Opa! We will definitely be back to Melbourne and will always stay at SweetPalm if it’s available! Thanks Darrell & Donna

    Paula and Tom have a beautiful home. Paula is a great communicator and went above and beyond our expectations. The neighborhood is quiet and easily accessed. The kids loved the pool. We would have loved to have spent more time at the Tiki Bar and only didn’t because of the heat and humidity.

    We had the best week! We stayed with our 3 children 16,14 and 11 and they all enjoyed the pool and we all loved sitting out at the tiki bar. Our dog felt right at home and love the large yard to chase geckos. We will definitely be back and for longer next time. The host was so friendly and accommodating and checked in throughout the week to make sure everything was good.

    Our time here was fabulous! Paula was amazing at making us feel welcomed! My kids absolutely loved the pool and the tiki hut!! It was wonderful! We stayed for the week because my daughter played at Space Coast Softball World Series. It was a quick drive to the fields and great location! Paula was great with any needs that arose! I would come back in a heart beat!

    This property was perfect for our multi-generational stay, with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy time together and have privacy. Our kids loved the pool area, and having the outdoor kitchen was so convenient. Everything in the house is well stocked, and the owners were so helpful in answering any questions and making our stay smooth and enjoyable. The location was close enough to major attractions, but the neighborhood was quiet and relaxing. I would highly recommend this property and we hope to stay again in the future!
