FAQs
Is the home good for remote workers?
Yes! Fast Wi-Fi and comfy workspaces make it easy to sneak in a little work — or just stream another show from the couch.

Is the pool heated?
Pool heat is available for an extra $25 per day should you want it, however, at most times during the year the sun naturally heats the pool. Just let us know before you arrive so we can have it ready for your arrival.

Is the home kid- and grandparent-friendly?
Definitely. The layout works great for families — just note there are stairs between floors.

Are pets allowed?
We do welcome well-behaved pets — we just ask for prior notice. To ensure the highest standard of cleanliness for every guest, we charge a one-time $250 pet fee. This allows us to perform a deep clean after your stay.

How’s the neighborhood?
It’s a historic West Palm neighborhood with a creative edge — a little bit old Florida, a little bit up-and-coming. If you love finding the cool coffee shops and street art before everyone else does, you’ll feel right at home. Downtown and the beaches are just minutes away by car or Uber.

Is there a property manager onsite?
Yes — Tom lives quietly in a separate cottage on the property. He’s respectful, helpful if you need anything, and the pool and backyard are 100% yours to enjoy.

Relaxing vibe

After searching many options along the coast we chose this spot based on the pictures and description. The house was beautiful and spacious for us (4 adults) and was everything the listing said it would be. The outdoor space, where we spent most of our time, was exceptional. Rhonda was easy to reach and always quick to respond. We hope to come back next year

Great property for an extended stay

We stayed at the property for about 4 weeks and really enjoyed our time. The Pros: - House is clean and well appointed - Beautiful Backyard with good sized pool - All amenities including board games, cleaning and cooking supplies, towels, pool accessories -super super comfortable bedding in the master bedroom ( I don't think i've slept in a more comfortable bed) - Host was incredible, when we saw a cockroach, she had a pest control company come spray right away, was very helpful with all of the questions prior to booking and during our stay. Cons: Location is in the middle of a very low income, run down neighborhood. I didn't feel in danger walking around at night, but I didn't feel comfortable either. If you're expecting a fancy neighborhood like I was, you will be disappointed. Despite the neighborhood being very run down, you did not notice anything when inside the house or in the backyard. Downtown West Palm is about 10-15 minutes away by car. The other downside is there is a tenant who rents the pool house. He's very nice, and quiet but if you prefer extra privacy without worrying about someone coming and going, you might not be OK with this. If the area doesn't bother you, you will love this place!

College Graduation

Overall pretty much what was advertised, very clean It was never mentioned that someone lived on the property, he caught us by suprise, very nice but un expected Upstairs bathroom shower in hall never drained and was full of water when we got there so everyone showered in 1 very small bathroom, that was a pain but honestly a very nice home for what we needed it for

A Very Pleasant Stay

I spent a little less than a month at the house. Most of the time was spent alone with my dog, but a few old friends made occasional visits. The house and property are very much as advertised and worked very well for my needs. Rhonda was extremely friendly and attentive, and a great help in answering questions and sorting out a few glitches. As I mentioned to her, the upstairs bathroom sink faucets and main oven (but not side oven or range) were irksome, but Rhonda mentioned that she was arranging to correct them.

Hidden Gem

House is unassuming from outside. Once inside you are greeted with beautiful art work and a well furnished and newly updated 1925 home. The back patio area is impressive with small pool waterfall and ample seating. Few minor issues arose and landlord responded quickly. Overall solid property if you are no taller than 5 feet 11 inches. Tall people will have to duck to get upstairs. Luckily I'm 5 11......

Everything went smoothly. Rhonda is very responsive. Our only concern was the property retained heat even with the central air and fans it can get pretty warm in the home during the day. Other than that, location is very close to all west palm attractions and restaurants. Thank you!

A gem of a house

This was my first time renting through VBRO so I was a bit anxious- the house ended up being everything and more! It was truly an amazing experience, the host was way to contact, it was just like the pictures and the backyard and the pool were a little slice of heaven on earth. It was conveniently located to downtown and beaches. I would rent it again in a heart beat and plan to on my next visit to West Palm❤️💯

What a beautifully appointed home. Full disclosure, not the best area, but the moment you walk through the door, it’s another world. Home is gorgeous and the pool area is nothing short of incredible. For us, the neighborhood was not an issue. We drove a short distance to great restaurants, beautiful beaches, and amazing multi-million dollar homes. Can’t wait to come back!!!

Perfect Home to Relax and Enjoy

This home is beautifully charming and so spacious and welcoming. My best childhood friend and I stayed here for several days and just loved the comfort and ease of living. It was so convenient to the shopping in West Palm Beach and such a easy drive there. The home, itself, is lovely and well appointed. The outdoor living space was perfect for late night relaxing and sipping wine as we talked and caught up on our busy lives. It was a terrific get-a-way! Rhonda was so quick with communication and check-in was very simple. We only had difficulty as I missed the lock box code in the description. But a quick phone call solved that! Thank you for sharing such a lovely home with others to enjoy.

About the host

Hosted by RHONDA VENTURES MCKAY

Host profile image
I'm Rhonda and by day I am a portfolio manager and bond trader but my real passion is rescuing historical properties and sharing them with others.

Why they chose this property

I've revitalized a number of great properties but this gem is my first one in West Palm Beach and I absolutely love it! I bought it without even seeing it in person--I could just tell from the pictures how charming and special it was. Then when I did walk through I was taken by the great vibe of the house.

What makes this property unique

This comfy retreat not only has great curb appeal with the gargoyles out front to protect you but inside it is charming, warm and inviting. Once inside you catch a glimpse of that great outdoor living area and pool and you're smitten. Enjoy the Coastal Boho Villa in West Palm!
