Lots of pros:
The property is exactly as portrayed. The unit is basically the equivalent of a mother-in-law's unit on the back of a property. Almost everything you need is provided, there is a gorgeous courtyard in which to eat, there is a hot tub and bicycles, and it really is a delight.
I highly recommend this property for a couple looking to get away, for a couple looking to use it as a base for exploring the area, or for someone working in the area looking for something much better than a hotel for a similar rate. I used to travel for work a great deal, and I would have much preferred this over a hotel and dining in chain restaurants.
Don't let my following cons fool you, I highly recommend this property.
A couple of cons:
The otherwise wonderful refrigerator/freezer is incredibly loud. It wasn't bad when sitting right next to it during the day, but at 4 in the morning, I was convinced someone was using a jackhammer in the street. Since this happened my last morning, there was no chance for the owner to address it.
This one is a matter of approaches. VRBO gives you the impression that access information will be provided three days in advance. Three days before checkin, not entered. Two days before, not entered. One day before, not entered. Messaged the owner and he says, yeah, he doesn't provide that until checkin time. For people who like to plan and like to have all of the information, this doesn't work. For those who enjoy winging it, I'm guessing this is fine. Personally, I don't want to show up hoping I can get in.
I've previously rented through VRBO, and I had all of this information a week in advance. So this is a style difference. I would prefer determining what the code would be, communicate that, and having the cleaning people set it on their way out.
Refutation to another review:
There is a review from a gentleman scared by the area and complaining there wasn't even a hotel nearby to which he could flee.
This is an eclectic residential neighborhood. I used to live in the area, and I have walked through these streets at all hours of the night and never felt at all at risk. I don't know where that reviewer thought he was staying, but I'm guessing the tourist areas of West Palm or Ocean Avenue in Delray. These neighborhoods are completely safe with a great deal of interesting housing. Please don't let that review put you off at all.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
