Jensen Beach, Florida
A beautiful tropical 2 bedroom and 1 bathroom home in quiet and lovely Jensen Beach. This sunny retreat on a lush tropical property with Coconut palms, Banyan trees and a beautiful Bamboo birdhouse garden is a 2 block walk from the intercostal waterway and a 7 minute drive to great ocean beaches.
The 2 bedroom house was built in 1958 in a mid-century modern style. The well appointed master bedroom has a king size bed with high end bedding in a tropical style. The room is furnished in a design style that features dark tropical rattan furniture and tropical paintings. The bathroom has a full size shower and no bathtub. The 2nd bedroom is furnished with 2 twin beds. The living room continues the tropical design theme with key retro pieces of traditional Florida rattan furniture from the 1960's. The kitchen is equipped with a modern smooth surface electric range, microwave, toaster and toaster oven, Kurig coffee system, and a built in dishwasher.
This mid-century modern house is a well appointed artist retreat that is used by Billie Jo Thomson as a painter's retreat. Billie's paintings adorn the walls and the art is constantly changing. One signature piece was created for and used in the Tim Burton film, "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children".
The house is located in Jensen Beach, a jewel of Old Florida traditions and styles. The beaches are beautiful and range from very accessible with life guards on duty 7 days a week to more secluded private quiet retreats.
Downtown Stuart is a 5 minute drive and is another jewel of Old Florida with a quaint main street in the traditional Worth Avenue in Palm Beach. With over 20 world class restaurants in a 3 block area, the nights are full of pleasant, friendly Florida entertainment.
When we pulled into the place, we were impressed with how laid-back and beautiful the property is. The interior of the home is great. It’s got the tropical, laid-back relaxed vibe. The backyard is really cool. The home is loaded with everything you’re going to need and then some. Really comfortable setting, beds are great and the place was super clean. the location is perfect, your minutes from the beach minutes from great fishing in downtown Stuart. The host Chris, is by far the best host I’ve ever dealt with. We rental places all over the state and east coast of the US several times a month. Chris was beyond helpful and easy to get along with. Restored my faith in hosts.
The backyard is great to relax in with all the Bamboo trees etc. Great place to stay
House was just what we needed while we looked for a new home in Port St Lucie. Billie and Chris were very responsive and helpful.
Great for dogs, nice fenced backyard! We came to get away from hurricane Ian in our town. Very comfortable. We will try to stay again when we are back in Jensen beach visiting friends!
This was our home away from home for just over a month while we were waiting to close on a new home purchase. This was the PERFECT place for us and our two small dogs! The home is located in the Rio community, which has a Jensen Beach address. It is centrally located between Port St Lucie and Stuart, and only a short drive north to Fort Pierce. Palm Beach International airport is only 45 minutes away. The home was cute and cozy, and had everything we needed for our stay. The back yard is lovely and peaceful with a huge, beautiful bamboo canopy. The neighborhood is quiet and very walkable, and SO conveniently located, no matter what you want to do during your stay. I would not hesitate to recommend this place. We enjoyed our stay so much. The host, Chris, is also awesome and easily reachable if you need anything.
The cottage is as cute as can be. The neighborhood is extraordinarily quiet. Most every morning was spent having coffee and breakfast on the secluded patio with the breeze gently blowing through the trees. Just beautiful! The kitchen was well equipped, the living room was comfortable and the bedrooms nicely furnished. We were pleasantly surprised upon returning home from a late night dinner on our first day to find the house nicely lit in an otherwise somewhat dark neighborhood. What a nice welcome home. The laundry room was well-equipped with supplies. On a rainy morning, the covered side patio was just the place to start the day. Should we find ourselves heading to the Jensen Beach area again, we’ll know exactly where we want to be…we loved our stay!!
It’s a cute place that offered exactly what we needed. My only suggestion would be to change out two couch. It’s a bit uncomfortable but that’s just the style, otherwise the beds were comfortable so overall nice little place
What a lovely time we had at this cottage! Beds and bedding were top notch and super comfy. Kitchen was well appointed; helpful tips and instructions were organized in a binder. As one reviewer mentioned, there are gates separating the yards; this was actually helpful to us. The owner, who was very friendly and welcoming, gave us the option of opening or closing the gates. We liked being able to let our dog visit with owner’s dogs but also being able to keep them separate sometimes, for convenience. Owner’s dogs were adorable and friendly. The WiFi was super fast and we were able to have three laptops all live streaming for school at the same time! We enjoyed dinner outside at the Boathouse in downtown Stuart (highly recommend!) and pizza from Downtown Benny’s. Jensen State Beach is a short drive away and quickly became our favorite spot. We loved staying here!!
This property is located in a quiet, well established neighborhood which is only a short distance from the historic district of Stuart, Jenson Beach and the beautiful beaches of Hutchinson Island. The hostess was very warm and welcoming. It is truly a pet friendly environment.
This place was clean, well-stocked and cute, but very small and cramped. The backyard was misrepresented - leading us to believe we'd rented a place with a large open combination of patio and grassy lawn with lounge chairs, quaint table and chairs, and lots of shade trees offering privacy (as depicted in the photos). In reality, the owner's wife was living in a newly built studio that was essentially IN the yard I mentioned, and access to the yard and furniture I mentioned had been fenced off for her private use. We were left with a fully exposed patio and a postage stamp patch of grass for our dog. In addition, the instructions for the thermostat and the TV were inaccurate and the dishwasher overflowed. We left several days early.
