SHADEYA HEATED POOL / SPA-SCHNELLE WIFI-PET FREUNDLICH-MIN. BEACH & ROGER DEAN-W / D

Hi Mark and Camilla, Thanks so much for your great review. Carlos and I always appreciate the love and care you have for the Shadey A, and we value you and look forward to your stays. We are so happy you have made our home a regular part of your visits to your friends and family near Jupiter. I know the main attraction in Jupiter is your G-kids, but I am sure you all have probably visited the Loggerhead Marine Center to see the huge sea turtles (and sometimes the babies called wash backs) that are being cared for there. It’s quite a big deal when they return a convalesced turtle to the sea, people line the path down the beach as the Sea Turtle Rehab Techs carry the large beasts to the surf and we all watch as it makes its way back to its home! The Juno Pier, just across the street, is a great place to watch the local folks catch snook, snapper and many other fish, sometimes really big sport fish get hooked, and looking into the water you are likely to see sting rays, lots of needle fish, many various kinds of sea life and sometimes a sea turtle swimming around the pier. Have a wonderful Holiday Season and a Happy and Healthy New Year. Fondly, Carlos and Marietta

Dear Ann and John, Thanks for taking such good care of our home. I know the pool is usually the star of the show for the grand kids, and I am glad they played with the yard games and board games in the game room. As you may have found out during your stay, there are places for the doggies to go to in Jupiter too. A favorite is the Jupiter Dog Beach, just 15 minutes from the Shadey A. I hope you and the family were able to enjoy some of the great restaurants and activities around town, like the movie-going experience at Cinépolis Luxury Cinemas Jupiter with reclining leather seats and full waiter service at the push of a button! The Lucky Strike Bowling alley is good for a memorable day of entertainment! Bowling, arcades, delicious eats, and more. We hope you and the family visit again, Regards, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Robyn, I hope this note finds you and the family healthy and well! I wanted to thank you for taking such great care of the Shadey A. I am glad you spent some time in the heated spa and pool. I know you like to spend your time reading books and that’s why we try to have comfortable places around the house to curl up with one. Give our regards to Jack and I hope you guys will come and visit us soon. Fondly, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Carmela and Tony, Once again, thanks for returning a third year to the Shadey A for your vacation time in Jupiter and taking such wonderful care of our house. We know you have family nearby and it is very special to us that you share Shady Acres with your grandkids and your whole bunch. I remember that in your first visit in 2019 you had mentioned that two grandchildren who were previously wary of riding bikes without training wheels found the courage to ride without them, thanks to Shady Acres. These are the memories we are always so proud to be a part of. I know you guys enjoy the area and we appreciate your tips about some of the fine local restaurants you have visited around town. I’m sorry this response is a bit late in coming but the holidays came fast and furious this year! Carlos and I wish you and the family a Joyous and Healthy New Year. Hope to see you in 2022. Fondly, Marietta

Hi Mark, Sorry for the slow response, you and your family are some of my very favorite guests. You take such great care of the Shadey A while you are here. Give our fondest regards to the family and continue to enjoy a Happy and Healthy New Year, -Marietta and Carlos

Hi Robert and fam, Thank you for taking such great care of Shadey Acres. I am so happy that you got to relax on your vacation, which I think is the best part of any vacation. I hope you took advantage of some of the great attractions, parks and beaches that are just down the Indiantown Road, which dead ends at beautiful Carlin Park Beach. Heading East you are just around the corner from The Busch Wildlife Sanctuary which moved from town out to the farms at the beginning of this year. Located just 2 ½ miles from the house come and see panthers, bears, Bobcats, otters, crocs and gators among other Florida native wildlife and all kinds of birds of prey. Shows every day where you can touch a gator, snake, opossum and skunk (so cool). And it’s free! And all the proceeds from the adorable gift shop goes straight to the care of the Sanctuary and its occupants. Another couple of miles down the road is Riverbend Park. Take a step back in time and enjoy walking, bicycling, riding, or canoeing through beautiful and historic Park. From the ancient Indian middens, through the Seminole War Battles, to present day restoration, see Florida as the first settlers did. Nearly 10 miles of hiking/biking trails, 7 miles of equestrian trails and 5 miles of canoeing/kayaking trails allow for hours of enjoyment. Stroll along the Wild and Scenic Loxahatchee River, visit the Cracker Farmstead, and picnic in the shade under a Seminole chickee. Take the 20-minute ride from the Shadey A with one of our bikes, or the 5-minute drive and rent a canoe, kayak or bike right there in the park. We also have some great restaurants in town from $$ to $$$$ style, and all kinds of cuisines to choose from. Many of them have Uber, Door Dash delivery that will come right to the house if you feel like eating by the pool. Shopping is fun, malls and local stores are all within 20 miles of easy driving. So come on back and see us and take in some more of wonderful Jupiter. With kind regards, Carlos and Marietta

Dear Maureen and Bunch, I am so glad you and your friends enjoyed Shadey Acres and really appreciate the care you took of our home. It sounds like you really had an exciting vacation and took advantage of all the great restaurants, And I know that after all that action, coming back to the house and heated pool and spa was a perfect end to a fun packed day. We hope you come back and see us again, Cheers, Marietta and Carlos

Tony and Carmilla, Thanks guys, we always love it when you stay at the Shadey A. We look forward to next time, Marietta and Carlos

Dear Robert and Family, Thanks so much for leaving our home in such great condition. I know you were staying here as a family vacation combo wedding trip in Jupiter, but I hope you had time to visit some of our world class restaurants and shopping in our area. The Square Grouper Tiki Bar is a laid-back, open-air marina bar offering tropical drinks, bar eats & live music by the water. There is plenty more night clubs and fine eats just 25 minutes away on Clematis Street in West Palm Beach. Carlos and I really love the Pon Tiki Cruises where you can enjoy the splendid scenery, drinks and Island music on the sleek Pon Tiki Party Barge. It leaves out of Harbourside and cruises the calm waters of the Intracoastal Waterway. The crew is friendly and fun. Next time try a relaxing canoe ride or kayaking down the beautiful Loxahatchee River that is just minutes away in Riverbend Park or a day of golf at of some of the beautiful golf courses nearby. If you are into fishing, there are lots of charters available nearby at the Jupiter inlet Visit our site shadeya and check it out for more attractions and fun. We look forward to seeing you next time, With fond regards, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Michelle and family, Thanks so much for the good care you and the family took of the Shadey A. I am so glad you all found our house welcoming and the beds so comfortable after your hectic flight to get here. We try to make the house cozy by turning on lights, so if you arrive in the dark you get a warm and fuzzy greeting. I hope you all relaxed in the pool and heated spa and took advantage of all the great restaurants and fun places to go and see in the area. Our guests do like the information about the area that we have posted around the house. Our guests really enjoy the amazing Loggerhead Marine Life Center in Juno, kids really like it there. The beautiful Dubois Lagoon, the fun Juno Dog Beach, and the famous Jupiter Light House and museum are just minutes away from the Shadey A. We hope you come visit again soon, Have a good 2025, Cheers, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Tony and Carmela, As always, we appreciate having two of our favorite guests come to Shadey Acres. Carlos and I enjoyed meeting your daughter and the GKids this time. What a nice bunch! We have upgraded the pool heating system and installed new laundry machines to make the Shadey A even more comfortable for your next visit. Carlos and I wish you and the family a Wonderful and Joyous Christmas and a Happy and Peaceful New Year. See you next time, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Darrell and Brenda, Thanks for taking such great of the Shadey A. I am so glad you and your family enjoyed all the all the fun things to do at the house, we try to provide a home-like experience, a little something for everyone. The pool is always a big hit! For all you baseball fans, Cardinal Spring Training at the nearby Roger Dean Stadium is so convenient, just 20 minutes away from the house. Our beaches are world class too, I hope you made use of our cooler, beach chairs, umbrellas and toys to have some fun in the Jupiter sun. If you didn’t get the chance this time, next time be sure to go canoeing or kayaking in the beautiful Loxahatchee River, the river head is right there in Riverbend Park, just “around the bend” from Shadey Acres. Wildlife abounds in the park, you may see deer, wild turkeys, and so many more interesting birds and animals. Busch Wildlife Sanctuary is just down the street from the Shadey A, where you can see local wildlife that have been rescued and now have permanent homes in this wonderful place. Among many other native Florida species, you’ll see Panthers, Bobcats and Foxes and Bears …Oh My!! Thanks again for coming, hope we see you next year, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Cassie and family, Thanks again for leaving the Shadey A in such great condition! I know you guys were here for Spring Training at the Roger Dean Stadium, but I hope you took advantage of some of the other attractions and around the Shadey A. The Busch Wildlife is so wonderful, a taste of the Florida that most of us will never see, with all the local flora and fauna, even black bears and Florida panthers! Many of my guests love the Loggerhead Marine Life Center, you can see the tanks with the huge loggerheads that are being healed and finally returned to the sea. From April to October you can even set up night time turtle walks to watch the turtles as they lay their eggs on the Jupiter shoreline. Next spring the family can go “Inland Surfing” where the surf is always up! Kelly Slater will be opening his famous Surf Ranch with a man-made surfing lake on an 80-acre park in the Western regions of Jupiter Farms, just minutes away from our Luxury Vacation Rental, Shadey Acres! KAWABUNGA !!! Of course canoeing, kayaking, biking and hiking are right in the neighborhood at the beautiful Riverbend Park. See deer, turkeys, and multiple species birds including nesting osprey. Alligators and turtles populate the many ponds and the Loxahatchee River. See all kinds of wildlife … in the wild! Visit the old farmstead, wood mill and the Seminole Village…Riverbend is really quite a place. And of course you can’t beat the shopping and eating at Harborside Plaza, Jupiter’s fantastic family center on the Intracoastal water way. Great shops and restaurants, a fountain for kids to play in a farmers market on Sundays. Every third Saturday of the month they have the Harborside Antique car exhibit with live bands in the amphitheater….. And it’s free (along with many other events and shows)! We hope to see you all on your next vacation. Cheers, Marietta and Carlos

Dear Julie and family, Thanks for taking such good care of the Shadey A. It makes us glad that your return visit (after having to postpone because of Covid) was a wonderful time for you and the family. Even though many places have opened completely in Jupiter, there are so many beautiful places that offer “natural” social distancing. The most beautiful park for biking, hiking, canoeing, or kayaking is Riverbend Park, which is a short bike ride from the Shadey A. (You can use our bikes or rent at the park, canoes and kayaks are for rent there also). I hope you were able to visit the Historic Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse & Museum and climb the light for fantastic views and tons of local history. Some of the fun restaurants are UTiki on the inlet and Harborside in which has several really great eateries, shopping and a weekly outside market and they are all just minutes away from the Shadey A! Hope you come visit us again, With fond regards, Marietta and Carlos

Dear Nathan and Family, Let me start by thanking you for taking such great care of Shadey Acres. I’m so glad you enjoyed your family vacation here in Jupiter; I hope you had fun revisiting “The Farms”, cycling around the neighborhood and Riverbend Park, where bike trails abound and you can rent canoes and kayaks for extra family fun! As you can see, in the last 20 years, Jupiter has changed from a small town to a very special venue, still maintaining that “small town feel”. I hope you all had some fun visiting our local hot spots; Harbourside Place with its great restaurants, galleries, shops and live music and a Farmers Market on the weekends. The Loggerhead Marine Life Center is one of my favorites; I am always amazed by the giant Loggerheads, Leatherbacks and Green Turtles that are being nursed to health in this most unique nonprofit cultural destination focused on ocean and sea turtle conservation. We love to go the Cineplex Movie Theater, where they serve drinks and delicious food to you in your seat while you enjoy the current features. We would love to welcome you and the family back to Shadey Acres for your next Jupiter vacation. Have a Joyous Holiday Season and a Happy and Healthy New Year! – Marietta and Carlos

Hi Tony and Carmela, We are so happy that you and Carmela love our home as much as we do. As always, thanks for coming back for your 4th visit and taking such great care of the Shadey A. I am sorry you vacation got off to a late start thanks to Hurricane Ian, but I am glad you finally got a flight down so you could enjoy the last week of your vacation. Thankfully we didn’t suffer any real damage and I owe a special thanks to my maintenance team for cleaning up the massive amount of fallen branches and palm fronds from the grounds so completely before your arrival. Over the years, I know you must have hit a lot of our high spots in town like Harborside and all the great restaurants and shops there. The Downtown Palm Beach Gardens and PGA Commons, as well as the Alton Center off Donald Ross Road are newer and chock full of stores, and great restaurants. The big news is Spring of 2023 will find the Busch Wildlife will have moved out of Jupiter back out here to its new home in The Farms just 2.9 miles from the Shadey A (that’s a 5 minute drive, and 13 minute bike ride). Hope we see you in 2023, have a wonderful Holiday Season and 2023. Regards, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Carmela and Tony, Thanks again for coming to your home away from home, Shadey Acres, you are such considerate guests. It’s extra special that you have your children and grandchildren come and visit. I hope you all have had a chance to visit the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary, home of many rescued animals from our area and even some from other States. They have Cougars and Bobcats and Bears…Oh My…. Along with Owls, Eagles, all kinds of birds, Deer, Foxes and all kinds of reptiles. It has a great gift shop, and all proceeds go to animal rescue and sanctuary. Another fun place to go for the whole family is the Lighthouse Cove Miniature Golf. It’s only about 20 minutes away from the Shadey A and hosts two lively courses, each with 18 holes everyone can enjoy. Paradise Falls serves up excitement for the whole family, complete with stroller accessibility. For those looking for even more adventure, there’s Lost Lagoon, it has caves and their amazing tropical aquarium featuring sharks as well as a variety of other large and small fish. One block from the beautiful beaches of Jupiter, it’s fun for the whole family - including grandparents and children of all ages. Enjoy an afternoon or evening of mini golf followed by dinner at the Burger Shack and ice cream from 3 Scoops. We look forward to your next visit, Fondly, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Chris and family, Once again let me thank you for the excellent care you and the family took of Shadey Acres during your stay. Also, I loved the sweet note and fridge magnets, it was very thoughtful. I’m glad you all had the opportunity to enjoy the Manatee Lagoon, cooler weather really brings the incredible manatees to that warm basin, in full force. They are so adorable and they always have a few babies (calves) around. You and the kids always seem to have so much fun while you’re here, really taking advantage of all the Shadey Acres toys, games and bikes, the pool and spa, and the many sights and activities the Jupiter area has to offer. One of our favorite things to go to with the grand kids is the Jupiter Lighthouse Cove Mini Golf, down by the Dubois Beach and inlet. There are two very nice 9-hole courses, they deliver food right to the course as you are playing, and the restaurant is good. There is an ice cream parlor and kid playground right in the same location! It’s tons of fun! We look forward to your future visits and wish you a happy and healthy 2026. Fondly, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Debbie, Let me begin by thanking you for taking such good care of the Shadey A. I am so glad you guys enjoyed the grounds, house and pool, we really work at making sure our guests have a seamless vacation with us. I am sure your multi-generational family had lots of fun with all the games in the Game Room! Spending a lot of quality time enjoying the ball parks is easy with the close proximity our house has to the Spring Training facilities in and around Jupiter. Some other attractions just minutes away are the Rapids Water Park in West Palm Beach (a world class water park) and Lion Country Safari. We love the Wild Safari Drive-thru Adventure in the preserve where you can see Prides of Lions and free roaming animals in large herds including one of the largest herds of Southern White Rhinos in the country and the largest herd of zebra outside of Africa! You can hand feed Giraffes and the best part – both attractions, The Rapids and Lion Country Safari are only a short drive from the Shadey A. And of course, we hope you found time to grab our beach chairs, umbrella and cooler to spend a lovely day at one of our gorgeous beaches that are just a short 10 minute drive, and if not, plan to do it next time! Hope you all come and visit us again, Regards, Marietta and Carlos

Hi Yelena, Thanks so much for taking such great care of our home. I am glad your family found happiness and comfort in the Shadey A during the covid quarantine. Next time you come I hope you can take advantage of some of the great spots in Jupiter. Harborside Place has great restaurants with lots of outdoor seating and a wide range of cuisines. The shopping there is great too. I hope you guys took advantage of some of the many outdoor activities, like canoeing or kayaking, hiking, and biking in the nearby Riverbend Park. The Busch Wildlife Sanctuary is where you can see up close and personal the different wildlife that is living all around the Shadey A in the parks and wetlands that surround us on three sides. Take a walk on the Cypress Swamp boardwalk. Visit the great gift shop, all proceeds go to the animals. Shopping is great in Jupiter with its many small businesses. Drive a little South to the beautiful downtown venues by the Gardens Mall and drive West on PGA Boulevard to the great restaurants and “Shop Small Style” shops in PGA Commons. We hope to see you and the family again, With kind regards, Marietta and Carlos

Dear Tim and Linda, Thanks again for the care you give the Shadey A when you come to visit; it’s always a pleasure having you folks! I know traditionally you spend a lot of time at the Roger Dean Stadium for the spring training of the Cardinals but I hope you had time to visit Harbourside Place by the bridge in Jupiter for shopping, free concerts, green markets and great restaurants! I’m so glad you love to hangout on the Lanai by our heated pool and spa for barbecues after the games but if you haven’t been there already may I suggest that on your next visit you can take some weekend time and take a ride on one of the many tour boats that travel around Jupiter on the Intracoastal Waterway. A close up of some of the beautiful homes on Jupiter Island and our historic Jupiter Lighthouse are some of the highlights. We are looking forward to having you next time, like us on Shadey Acres FB page for upcoming events and specials and check in at shadeya . com for more info, events and attractions in and around Jupiter and PBC. See you next time, Marietta and Carlos

Dear Adnan and family, Thanks so much for the great review. I also want to give you a special thanks for the pristine condition you left our home in. I know the heated screened pool and the hot spa at the house are hard to leave, but I hope you enjoyed the area, Jupiter really has some great shopping and dining just minutes from the house. We like to recommend taking one of the local Intracoastal cruise tours in the area, you can get a new perspective on some of the great homes and historic sites here in Jupiter when viewed from the water. Check out our Shadeya Com attraction pages for more info. Speaking of Historic sites, I hope you had the opportunity to visit our Jupiter Lighthouse, they offer to the top tours and lots of other fun activities there as well as the Tindal House, a Pioneer house furnished in its period and a Seminole Chichi. The Mariners Museum and gift shop on site are interesting and fun. We look forward to having you all visit again. Regards, Marietta

Dear Laurie and Eric, First let us congratulate you on your engagement. What a romantic moment and we are so happy that Shadey Acres is now a part of your special memories. We wish you many Happy and Healthy years together (Carlos and I just celebrated our 42nd anniversary, time flies when you are having fun!!!). I also want to thank you for the great condition that you left the Shadey A. I am so glad you enjoyed the house and property. I hope the doggies liked the yard too! We have so many pet friendly restaurants in Jupiter, great for travelers like yourselves who want to bring their dogs along. If you didn’t get the chance this time, I hope you will be able to get in some canoeing or kayaking in the beautiful Loxahatchee River, the river head is right there in Riverbend Park. The wildlife abounds in the park, and also at the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary, just down the street from the Shadey A, where you can see local wildlife that have been rescued and now have permanent homes in this wonderful place. They have Panthers and Foxes and Bears…Oh My!! Taking in the Jupiter Light House is always my favorite and the Logger Head Marine Center is wonderful, the giant sea turtles are something to see, and the shark aquarium is fascinating. Hope you visit again soon, Marietta and Carlos
