Downtown Whimsical Paradise; Pool, Tiki Bar, 2 blks North of Atlantic Ave Delray

Our hosts were great! So welcoming and friendly. They made it feel like home. The entire property is SO cool and relaxing. Makes you feel like you are in a tropical oasis. AND the perfect location!

Upon arrival, there was a greeting posted welcoming me to “Bella Vie”. Once you meet Doreen and John (the owners), you will feel their sincere hospitality. They also surprise you with some delicious treats including home made Key Lime pie, baked by John. Best Key Lime pie I ever had!!!!I stayed in the “Key Lime Suite”which is decorated with work from local artists. Every photo of both the unit and outdoor space posted by the owner is accurate. Waking up each morning with pleasant sounds of bubbling water from the fountain to the birds and swaying palms was truly special. I always looked forward to sitting on the deck (right outside my door). Walking around the well manicured property with colorful flowers and well adorn art work was a treat! By the end of my 2 week stay, I was totally relaxed and did not want to leave!By the way, the location is excellent. If you like to walk, no car is really needed. Publix & Walgreens are less than a half mile away. Walk about 2 blocks further north and you find CVS & Chase Bank. While restaurant options are on Atlantic Ave (just 1 block away),there are restaurants right around the corner on 2nd Ave.. Of course “Arts Garage” is less than 2 blocks away. Coming home in the evening you will find Bella Vie with lights on all throughout the property. It is evident that Doreen and John have a passion for what they do. They are approachable and always willing to assist in any way. The name says it all! “Bella Vie”- “A Beautiful Life” A Biento

Had a nice stay at this property. Doreen and her husband were very nice and the location is convenient to downtown Delray beach. The only thing we were disappointed with was the pool. Thought it was actually a pool, not a pond shape pool that was small in size.

We loved staying here. The unit we stayed in is a studio but very spacious. It is located in a great neighborhood and is centrally located, a few blocks from Atlantic. The garden is lovely with many seating choices to read, listen to the birds, or just enjoy. It is a very quiet neighborhood and great for taking a walk. The hosts are responsive, friendly, and lovely people. The best hosts we have had since renting in Delray. Thank you Doreen and John for making our stay enjoyable. I hope we will be able to return next year.
