About this house rental

Purchased in October 2013, The Haven has undergone a total and continuous transformation and is now ready to delight and excite you. A PRIMO location, just 5 minutes walking distance from downtown restaurants, movies and shopping, 10 minutes walk to South Beach and Kids Korner, with features that include a:

• Spacious open kitchen with quartz counters, appliances, bar seating, breakfast nook and sitting areas
• Open living room / dining room with all new furnishings and a 51” HDTV
• Four queen bedrooms (one with a twin sleeper sofa) that sleep up to 9 adults and a colorful bunk room that sleeps up to 8 young children. Downstairs Great Room w/51” HDTV viewing area and a Game & Gallery space, including a PlayStation 2014!
• Three full baths, plus outdoor shower
• Large laundry room with 2 washer / dryer sets and 2nd refrigerator
• Spacious refinished deck with piped gas grill
• New furnishings throughout the entire house
• Gas fire pit, and more …

The intent of the extensive renovation was to create an environment that we or you would view as a 'Home Away from Home', delivering a high level of comfort and class, and we have done just that! The little touches that delight are everywhere: the artwork, the iconoclastic design of each bedroom, the vibrant colors in the Bunk Room. And we aren’t done yet! We plan to continue to step it up, based on feedback that we get from you.

The Haven's sweet spot is multi-generational families. We are very well suited for grandparents on the 1st floor, moms and dads on the 2nd floor and a bunch of kids in the Bunk Room. Easy access for the physically challenged: there is only one step up from the rear driveway to the expansive deck and rear entry door.

We have no doubt that you will enjoy your experience at the Haven. Creating a “Home away from Home” is a high standard – we plan to meet and exceed it! See you at The Haven!

We had a wonderful stay at the Haven. We had 13 people including 5 kids aged 8-15. There was plenty of room for everyone and the kids absolutely loved the bunk room! The outdoor patio table was used daily as was the side yard. The contents of the garage were extensive and we used nearly everything offered (bike, sand toys, beach towels, pool floaties, beach chairs, yard games, etc). We did have a couple issues arise but Carlton was quick to help us mitigate them. While that resulted in multiple repair people in and out of the home throughout the week, those people were always kind, quick, and helpful. Special shout out to Gibby who went above and beyond to make our stay just what we envisioned. It's a short walk to the beach and downtown. Would definitely stay again!

THe property was located in an ideal place. We walked to the beach, walked to view the fire works, and walked just one block to view the parade. We. We’re also able to walk to the shops and restaurants in town! THe house had 4 bedrooms, one for each couple, and the bunk room for the 6 grandchildren. The kitchen was stocked with many of the items needed for cooking. Overall, great place!!!

Perfect location!
Perfect location!
My family and I spent a week in this beautiful home. We walked to downtown (literally 3 blocks away) and the beach (6 minute walk). When a problem arose, Carlton was quick to respond and very courteous. This house is big enough to host multiple generations. We had 2 sets of grandparents, my husband and I, and our 3 kids, and there was room for more!
