My wife and I are from New York and we are retired professionals. We have been traveling the world for the past five years spending months in Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Italy, and more. We frequently stay in an airbnb, HomeAway, or VRBO as it gives us a feel for the local community and the comforts we enjoy that hotels cannot provide.
We lived for 12 years in Stuart and returned after selling our home 5 years ago. We came back to visit with friends and to see the changes in the town that we had grown to love. Staying at Julie's Guest House was perhaps the best rental experience that my wife and I have had over the past 5 years. The "guest house" is really a cottage and it is loaded with charm. The location is perfect, being close to town in a quiet neighborhood, and a nice walk to the water. Beaches are minutes away as are good restaurants, shops, and an excellent Publix supermarket. The house was spotless and the Florida decor was inviting. The bed in the master was super-comfortable and there were plenty of cooking utensils, silverware, plates, mugs, etc. There were many nice touches of thoughtful things that made this stay so special. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it. Dale and Julie Thornberry are delightful and wanted to make sure everything was perfect for us (and it was). If you are looking for a Florida experience and want to be near Stuart, this is the perfect place to stay. Five star reviews are rare from me, but Julie's Guest House deserves six-stars.
