Good rental

The location was what we wanted, convenient to things we wanted to do. The interior of the house is in very good condition. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with great appliances. There were some deferred maintenance items including challenging door locks and window drapes but none caused us any significant problems. The neighbors were very friendly and 2 neighbors had giant turtles that you could pet and feed.

Great spot.

This is a cozy place in a quiet neighborhood. Plenty to do in the area. Boat access is easy (on the water). Parking a trailer next to the house is very, very tricky because of narrow driveway. Host is very responsive and considerate.

Clean, Cozy & Comfortable

This was my second stay in Angelita's cottage, escaping the Wyoming winter and visiting family. This year I was pleased to see that the key entry had been replaced with an electronic lock, making coming and going easy with a 4-digit code. Otherwise, I can add nothing to my review of last year. It is still as clean, cozy and comfortable as ever, and I plan to return for a third visit next year!

Awesome stay!

Angelita was great communicating with us and helping us find accommodations for our trailer! The house is so convenient to get to restaurants and bars and most importantly offshore! Househad everything we needed. Very well stocked kitchen. Note: Beds are a bit firm and the water drops quite a bit in the boat basin so make sure to plan for that!

Lovely property at a great location

Angelita’s house is in a secluded, quiet and safe location off of a busy road, but the traffic there is barely noticeable from inside the house. It’s close to some of our favorite restaurants in the area, and a wonderful fresh seafood market. It’s spotlessly clean, nicely decorated, and well-appointed. The beds are super comfortable and there are tons of plush towels. I really appreciated that she supplied paper towels, toilet paper, food storage bags and wrap, and laundry, dishwashing and cleaning supplies! The internet is fast and reliable. Angelita was a stellar hostess! She responded promptly to my questions, and clearly wanted me to enjoy my month-long stay. I hope to rent this lil house again!

About the host

Hosted by Angelita Dennis

Host profile image
We are close by if needed. We have great memories in this house and lived here while our house was being built. Now, we are retired and have made our lil House available Our family wants you to have a peaceful visit and enjoy our location.

Why they chose this property

This was our family's first house on Rocky Point. We've kept in the family due to access to the Manatee Pocket in Martin County, Florida. From your boat slip it is a short ride to Sandsprit Park, Crossroads of the Indian River and the St. Lucie River and ocean Inlet. Centrally located easy drive to Stuart and West Palm Beach and away from busy traffic.
No extra fee to use dock it's in the rate.

What makes this property unique

Downtown Port Salerno has several restaurants on the water and on the main street.
Want seafood? Must try P3's Pinch Pull Peel 205 SW Monterey (4.5). and new restaurant on Monterey and Kanner Hwy./Monterey Plaza. Cajun Seafood Boil. Fresh, tender and tasty. I will buy your an appetizer "cheese curds" boil.
I also, personally, recommend a call for a pick-up from Basin Seafood.
Stuart downtown has much to offer and is a must for shopping and treats.
