Golf Tournament

The home was clean, larger than expected. Neighborhood was nice, quite and convenient. We were close to the golf course at Hobe Sound and close enough to the public beach. Plenty of restaurants. Especially Two Brothers Pizza.

Casual luxury in the heart of it all

This was my second stay here in the past three years. It remains top notch. The property is immaculate, beautifully decorated. Clear instructions for the amenities on site and the ones to use at the beach. The mattresses are supportive. The kitchen is fully stocked with two grocery stores a hop and a skip away as is the beach. TVs are new with oodles of channels. the outdoor patio is paradise. Thanks Peggy for another comfortable and safe stay.

Citrus Cottage

It was much larger than I expected which made it very comfortable. Lots of little extras in the kitchen and bath which were thoughtful. I was able to work both TVs from the directions provided considering I am technology challenged lol.
