About this house rental

Welcome to Tropic Palms — a Dwell Magazine-featured 3-bedroom designer retreat in the heart of Delray Beach. Newly renovated by an award-winning architecture firm, with a heated pool, chef's kitchen, and Sonos throughout. Sleeps 6 in king with ensuite + king + queen.

You'll feel it the moment you open the door: this isn't your average vacation rental. Tropic Palms was reimagined from the ground up by a renowned, award-winning design-and-build firm and featured in Dwell Magazine — the design world's stamp of approval that you can see in every line, finish, and fixture.

We built this home to redefine what a beach rental should feel like. Three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, a heated pool, and a kitchen that genuinely deserves the word "chef's." Sleeps 6 adults in real beds (two kings, one queen) — no air mattresses, no compromises.

Inside

Open-concept great room, designer furnishings, and a smart TV
Separate poolside den — air conditioned, smart TV, adjacent to the pool, perfect as a second lounge, kids' hangout, or remote-work nook.

Chef's kitchen with new high-end appliances, generous counter space, and every tool a serious cook actually wants — built for entertaining, not just reheating and a dining area that seats the whole group

Three distinct bedrooms:

Primary suite — King bed, ensuite bath, walk-in closet, blackout shades
Second bedroom — King bed, generous closet, blackout shades
Third bedroom — Queen bed, generous closet, blackout shades

2.5 newly renovated bathrooms with designer fixtures and walk-in shower in primary ensuite and tub in shared bath.
Full laundry room with washer, dryer, and a wireless printer (a rare and welcome touch for remote workers).

Outside — the Florida lifestyle, done right

Newly renovated heated pool — swimmable year-round
Covered pergola for shaded lounging and long lunches
Sundeck for unbothered sunbathing
Modern outdoor shower — the after-beach ritual you didn't know you needed
Gas grill AND charcoal grill — yes, both. Grill purists, you're home.
Lounge chairs and outdoor dining — al fresco everything

Smart-Home Touches

- Smart lock entry — no key fumbling, no lockbox
- Nest thermostat — control the climate from anywhere
- Sonos speaker system — connect via Wi-Fi and your soundtrack follows you from kitchen to pool
- High-speed Wi-Fi throughout — built for streaming, video calls, and remote work
- Wireless printer in the laundry room

THE LOCATION — Why Delray, Why Here
Delray Beach was named "Most Fun Small Town in America" for a reason. It's the rare Florida destination that's walkable, sophisticated, and genuinely unpretentious. Tropic Palms sits in the sweet spot — close enough to walk to everything, far enough to actually relax.
From your front door:

- 5 minute drive to the beach — soft white sand, lifeguarded, with public showers
- 10 minutedrive to Atlantic Avenue and downtown Boca Raton — hundreds of restaurants, rooftop bars, art galleries, and the renowned Saturday GreenMarket
- Morning coffee at Subculture, Death or Glory, or any of a dozen cafés within a short walk
- Public pickleball and tennis courts; the Delray Beach Open is a 10-minute drive
- Pineapple Grove Arts District, Old School Square, and the Cornell Art Museum — all walkable
- Day trips: Morikami Museum & Japanese Gardens (15 min) · Wakodahatchee Wetlands (10 min) · Worth Avenue & Palm Beach (25 min) · Boca Raton (15 min) · Fort Lauderdale (40 min) · Miami (55 min)

Most of our guests park their car on arrival and don't move it again until checkout.

WHO TROPIC PALMS IS PERFECT FOR

- Couples wanting a romantic, walkable, design-forward escape
- Families who need real space, real beds, and a pool that gets used
- Friend groups celebrating birthdays, reunions, or a long weekend in the sun
- Snowbirds and remote workers — Wi-Fi, dedicated den space, and a printer make this an actual second office
- Wedding and event guests — minutes from Delray's top venues
- Design enthusiasts — the Dwell feature wasn't an accident; you'll notice every detail

We're new to the VRBO platform but have had many renters and guest who truly enjoy this home. Booking a vacation rental is a leap of faith — we've stayed in dozens ourselves and built Tropic Palms to be the one we wished we'd found. If you have any questions before you book, send a message. A real person will write back, usually within the hour.
Reach out, lock in your dates, and we'll have the lights on, the pool warm, and the Sonos cued up.

Host was very responsive to my questions. We were a family of grandparents, adult children and an 18 month old. We were very comfortable in the house, which had a portacrib (although we did rent a full size crib) and high chair. We cooked, barbecued (just make sure there is a full tank). Nice pool and chaise lounges and screened in area.
