This is an absolutely gorgeous apartment, decorated -- as it appears in the photos -- beautifully, in Nantucket or Hamptons style. The location is perfect: the only supermarket in Palm Beach is across the street, the beach is a couple of blocks away, and the golf course at the Breakers is a ten-minute walk. There are dozens of shops and restaurants in quick walking distance. The unit is well-appointed and lovely. The host, Chris, is courteous and helpful. We had a terrific time.
A couple of observations about the building: (1) The property is older and badly in need of a refresh. Common areas smell of mildew. It was initially a bit off-putting, but the quality of the apartment overcame any of these issues. (2) The swimming pool area has a covered veranda suitable for self-served cocktails and breakfast or lunch -- really quite delightful. It was not particularly crowded, even during our peak-week visit.
The unit itself was comfortable and utterly silent -- no road or neighbor noise. It was spotless upon arrival and in near perfect condition.
One small note on the second, smaller bedroom: it has a trundle bed, not two twin beds. This means, effectively, that when both mattresses are occupied, it's very difficult move around. This should have been obvious from the photo of that room, but I missed it. Not a complaint, but the second bedroom is more suitable for two children or one adult.
We are very grateful to Chris for a perfect vacation!
