This was our second stay at Cottage by the Sea and definelty will not be our last! We really enjoy this re-set time together, easy access to walking park, downtown Stuart, St. Lucie River and the beach! Even though we had a few work days during this trip there was fishing daily, paddle boarding to Gilbert's for avocado toast for breakfast, delicious dinners created in the well equipped kitchen, puzzles during the storms. Can't wait to return! ALL ROUND GREAT TIME!!! Paul & Beth are the most gracious hosts!
This was my second stay with Paul and Beth. I love the area and serenely peaceful environment of this home. It’s beautiful, clean and a paradise in the middle of lots to do. Always a joy!
What a peaceful, coastal experience on the St. Lucie River close to plenty to do. I could not have asked for a better experience and loved the place. It was luxurious and included all I needed for a getaway to sand and relaxation. Paul and Beth were amazing hosts. I will definitely go back!

We rented this property for a 60th birthday. The host's Paul & Beth are very accommodating, providing everything you need in the home, just go buy your groceries. All high-end construction and very quiet. The hot tub is amazing with great evening views after a day in the Sun. We saw porpoises swim by while watching the sunsets! This is a great location close to downtown and central to all that Stuart has to offer. We will return for sure!
Really enjoyed our stay. Location, location, location as they say. Quiet, relaxing, and awesome view. Clean, modern, well appointed place and attentive hosts. Will definitely look for this one for future visits to the area.
