KING Bed & Mini Golf, Pet Friendly! Cowboy Pool Close to Beach Airport & Zoo BBQ

10/10 Excellent

"The house was clean the and the fenced in yard was perfect for our two dogs. I was unaware there was a fee for the pets which may have been my mistake but I would have liked if it was listed prior to booking. The water in the master bedroom shower was extremely cold or hot with no in between but the other shower seemed fine. The host was quick to respond and allowed us a late check out when we had a sudden change in plans which was greatly appreciated."

3-bedroom house in lovely West Palm Beach with Fast WiFi, KING Bed

10/10 Excellent

"This home is an absolute gem… as a frequent VRBO renter, this may have been the cleanest I’ve ever stayed at! Fully loaded home with literally every possible amenity you’d expect. I loved the privacy of the backyard space with lights and table/chairs! The neighborhood was quiet and residents were friendly. Many people out walking their dogs or exercising. I felt safe and “at home”. The layout was awesome with a master room off from rest of the house. Everything was clean and working. I especially enjoyed the coffee maker with built in bean grinder, large refrigerator and smart TVs. Proximity to the beach and shopping were a plus. Owner communicated quickly and was very helpful! If you’re looking for a place to stay in WPB- stay here!"
