Perfection
Everyone in our group loved EVERYTHING about "Pennies from Heaven"! Cleanest VRBO I've ever reserved, by far. Lots of fun, too, with all the scavenger hunt clues. The kitchen had everything we could possibly want, the hosts left us delicious snack foods, all their restaurant recommendations (and the fruit stand) were big hits. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again!

Exceeded Expectations
After a lot of back and forth on VRBO I decided to give this listing a try. I am so glad that I did. Read the reviews, pictures can only give you a partial perspective. This house has been meticulously renovated. What an excellent restore. The house is super clean, the backyard was spacious with lots to do. The backyard was not buggy like you might assume. The Hosts were great, they went out of their way to decorate the house for Christmas which saved us a lot of work. The kids loved the house. They had lots of fun with the scavenger hunt. The location is on a quiet block in a relatively quiet neighborhood. I am no stranger to Jensen Beach and would recommend this location to anyone. It's in a very convenient area. Down the block you have the park to play tennis or beachball. Sewall's Point, Stuart, Downtown Jensen Beach all just a few minutes drive. I would definitely stay again. Thank You.

Barbara and Dennis have created such a wonderful experience at the Pennies from Heaven cottage. They are thoughtful and meticulous with our comfort and entertainment in mind. All daily supplies are fully stocked and they even welcome you with home-baked pastries (which are delicious)! For these reasons and many more, my family and I have booked this Vrbo for 3 years in a row to celebrate Thanksgiving. We hope for many more and we’ll be lucky if it’s available!

Surpassed Our Expectations
If I could rate it as 6 Stars, I would. We had an event to attend near Jupiter over the Memorial Day weekend. This place seemed to check all the boxes, as far as location, number of rooms, etc. It looked cute in the photos and was reasonably priced. When we arrived, we were floored. This home has a history and personality like none other. It charmed us from the first moment and only got better and better. The owners truly thought of everything! The inside of the home is incredibly well decorated and laid out for maximum use of everything. The outside - well that was truly a gem. I don't want to give away all the charms of this magnificent - come see it for yourself. You will not be disappointed - in fact, you'll be the family hero for finding such an amazing place!
