Response from VrboOwner on 2 November 2025
Thank you for this wonderful, five-star review!
We are thrilled you found the accommodation exceptionally comfortable and the outside space so enjoyable. We put our heart and soul—and over two years—into getting our little island retreat in top condition for our guests, and your generous comments make all that hard work worthwhile.
About the host
Your host
After spending 3 years of landscaping and renovations we are finally open since May,2025 . I’m originally from Havana, Cuba, and have called Florida home for many years. I love the sun, the ocean, and meeting people from all over the world. Hosting gives me the chance to share a little piece of paradise with others. I take pride in creating a peaceful, comfortable space where guests can truly unwind and feel at home. Whether you’re here to relax or explore, I’m always happy to help make your stay special.
Why they chose this property
The scene around PalmNestHQ is truly something special. Mornings begin with birdsong and the gentle shimmer of lake water just steps away. The property is surrounded by towering palms, tropical flowers, and quiet breezes—it feels like your own private island, yet you’re right in the heart of West Palm Beach.
What I enjoy most about the neighborhood is the peaceful energy and unbeatable location. You’re in a quiet, friendly community where neighbors wave hello, but you’re also just minutes from everything—Palm Beach Worth Avenue, the beach, local markets, antique shops, golf, and amazing dining. Whether you want serenity or adventure, this neighborhood offers the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique
What makes our property truly unique is its rare blend of seclusion, natural beauty, and convenience. Nestled on 2.5 lush acres and surrounded by water on three sides, it feels like a private island—yet it’s just minutes from the airport, Palm Beach’s iconic Worth Avenue, beaches, and top attractions.
With vaulted ceilings, antique furnishings, and serene lake views, the home offers a warm, character-filled escape, not just another cookie-cutter rental. The new deck, king-size bed, and high-efficiency A/C with purifiers ensure modern comfort while you unwind in a tropical setting.
"We are so pleased to share our premium Michael Phelps Signature Swim Spa with you. This is an official Master Spas product designed with input from the legendary swimmer himself. Forget traditional jetted pools—this uses an exclusive Propulsion System for a smooth, deep, and fully adjustable current. It's the ultimate amenity for both fitness and relaxation."
