Great home for family with young child
We loved our stay the whimsical haven. We have an almost 2 year old and having all the added amenities for her was fantastic. Everything was clean and comfortable. The street noise was a little loud, as were the dogs next door, but the room we stayed in blocked a lot of that out because it was in the back of the home. Very comfortable beds, and beautiful backyard area.

Nice home!
The property manager was very nice and very accessible. We had no problems during our stay. The house was clean and comfortable and my grandsons enjoyed the pool. There was shopping near-by so we could get what we needed. If we are in the area again and didn’t care that we weren’t by the ocean, I would definitely see if this house was available. Thank you Daphne and Fritz.

Not as advertised
TV is only ROKU. No cable. Limited channels, No heated pool as the Solar didn’t work, The owner did order and send us new pots and pans as what was left was unfit to cook with. Grill was charcoal and you were expected to replace what used. So Cheap. Furniture not comfortable. Home was well decorated

We had a grate time!
Every year we go somewhere with my family and this year we stayed and the house of Daphne, and it was our best experiance. The house looks much better then on pictures. It is very clean and has lots of space. The house was decorated and furnetured in one style. Daphne has a grate taste. Very easy to check in and check out. There was pleanty of towels for the bath and the beach. Beach acessories were available, and even a car seat for a child. The pool was clean and beutifull. The outside sitting area is very cozy. The house itself is in a good location, just a couple of minutes away there are many resturants and stores. Its 30 min away from many beaches. Some that we liked were Paradise beach(parking free), Sebastian Inlet(no waves). It is good for kids. Also the house is 30min away from a good zoo. The owners are very nice people, very welcoming and helpful. Daphne answered every question that we had. We would like to come back to this house and definetly reccomend this house.

David H., Kansas, USA

December in Florida.
The overall property was okay. We were disappointed in the shape of the home. There were several blinds broken, missing slants, basically not operable. We found gum stuck to a closet shelf. There were carpet stains which could be easily removed. The house was in a residential neighborhood but it is a short cut from point to point, so cars would race past at all hours. Once again, it's an average house. We just felt like the owners might be trusting a management company to oversee things and they are doing a poor job.

Visiting Family
We came to spend time with family who live in the Palm Bay area. Home was exactly as portrayed and actually much more spacious than pictures convey. Convenient to stores in the area for anything we needed. Only issue we had is the WiFi/internet...not sure if enough bandwidth as difficult to watch TV at night as pictures were blurry frequently and buffered frequently. Would definitely stay here again!

Absolutely perfect!
We came in for our wedding. 3 couples. My grandmother and our toddler. This place is absolutely incredible!! Daphne and Fritz made our wedding celebration absolutely unforgettable!! Personal touches galore! Champagne. Favors. Balloons. Rose petals. You name it. They really outdid themselves making our stay amazing. The house itself is breathtaking. Big. Spacious and open. Fully stocked. You need nothing but groceries. There was coffee, filters, spices and things for cooking already there. It was like walking in at home. Everything was so easy to find. Tons of blankets. And extra towels. Even little things like toiletries under the sinks just in case you forgot anything they had you covered. Roku TVs were a big plus because that’s what we use at home. And the binder with restaurant suggestions was super helpful to know what was in the area when it came to choosing dinner out. They really did think of everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Having our family all together for our big day and the memories we made here will stay with us for a lifetime. We will definitely be booking The Whimsical Haven for every repeat trip to Florida from now on.
