Terrific Cottage for family of 4

Bougainvillea Cottage was perfect for our son’s young family: well appointed, modern, very clean and centrally located for the beach and shopping. The cottage features a full kitchen, and Peggy even provided a Porta Crib for the baby.

Bougainvillea Cottage Retreat in Paradise

I have stayed at both of Peggy’s Retreat properties numerous times and it is always a pleasure. The properties are clean, well appointed and close to everything to ensure a vacation in paradise. The landscaping is more beautiful with every visit and the hosts are great! Whenever I travel to Jobe Sound, Peggy’s Retreat is always my favorite!!

Fantastic communication from pre-check in to check out. Super clean, incredibly well stock with thoughtful bonus items like detergeant, coffee bar, toiletries, etc! Great outdoor space. The only knock I’ll give is the listing says 7 min to Roger Dean Stadium. It was 26-28. Otherwise, it was a great choice!

Just Adorable AND Fabulous

My stay in Hobe Sound was just one leg of a multi-leg, complicated trip and Peggy’s sweet oasis was just what I needed at the end of each long day. Super clean, well-equipped and thoughtfully stocked. Great location and very comfortable. It’s a 10 out of 10.

Family visit

I rented this property for my father and aunt to visit my brother and his family. The property was extremely beautiful, clean and everything that was needed was in the home. This will definitely be a repeat rental for us! The host Lives just a few houses down and was incredibly kind and helpful. We were very impressed with the quality of this rental home!

The property was absolutely gorgeous. The beds and pillows were insanely comfortable, which is particularly important for my back. Peggy was amazing, she even showed up in the middle of the night when my water stopped working and fixed it immediately! It was very impressive. I would absolutely stay here again. Something to know, though, Vrbo was an absolute nightmare to deal with. They wrongly charged me additional money that they shouldn’t have and then they refused to pay me back for it, getting a hold of somebody from that company is nearly impossible and you will get sent to some call center in India, where the very polite human on the other line barely speaks English. Peggy ended up having to make that right when it was absolutely not her responsibility. Again, 10 to 10 for Peggy, zero out of 10 for Vrbo. For this reason, I will give five stars for Peggy, but if I was giving stars for Vrbo, they would get one.

The cottage was very clean and well equipped. We appreciated the attention to detail in the decorating and the amenities. There was even bug spray in the pantry closet! Also, there was helpful information about restaurants and nearby attractions. The cottage is close to both shops and the Hobe Sound beach on Jupiter Island. It is in a safe, quiet neighborhood with well cared for homes. We couldn’t have been more satisfied with this booking!
