About this property

The Rio Retreat, is an adorable midcentury modern with updated coastal features and a touch of pizzazz, right in the heart of historic Rio. Drink in the tropical backyard setting, while enjoying a glass of wine around the large firepit while sitting in an adirondack chair, on those balmy South Florida evenings. Enjoy your morning coffee or tea in the island style rocking chairs on the front porch, surrounded by coconut palms swaying in the warm breeze, with the privacy hedge keeping it green! Enjoy natural Florida with beautiful beaches and parks, just minutes away. Perhaps you'll find that perfect seashell to help remember your special Florida beach vacation! For vintage car aficionados, The Elliott Museum is a must. Every Wednesday a free car exhibit is held in the parking lot by private owners. Visit historic downtown Stuart with its fabulous restaurants, resort wear, gift and art shops. Not to be missed is the ever popular Kilwins ice cream and fudge parlor. There is a favorite for everyone so be prepared for a bit of a line because it's that good! Grab your seats early, or just boogie on over to the dance deck with your honey for Rock'n Riverwalk, featuring a different band every Sunday afternoon. The historic Lyric Theater newly updated, also offers first class original music groups, tribute bands, and comedy. Ride free of charge the village trolley, which allows you a tour of the area attractions and a bit of the history of old Stuart.
Mrs. Peters (historic & famous) Smokehouse, is just down Dixie Hwy where you will find her renowned smoked fish and dips. Enjoy a hearty breakfast at Jan's Place in downtown Jensen Beach, and every Thursday night the town is hopping with Jammin' Jensen! Stuart and Jensen Beaches are just minutes from your stay! The house has city water (not well.)

Home is accessible via keyless entry.
Security cameras covering front door, driveway, and backyard gate for your safety.
February is a full month stay in order to accommodate our overwintering guests.

Spring break perfection!

The Rio Retreat was the perfect spring break getaway for my wife and I. Olivia has thought of everything while appointing the property. Both inside and outside are perfectly manicured and meticulously cleaned. The location between Stuart and Jensen beaches is prefect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Olivia

As native Floridians we enjoy our time in Florida, and wanted to share our cozy retreat.

Why they chose this property

Our updated midcentury modern is a comfortable haven. It is truly a retreat in the middle of the action. It's in a vintage neighborhood surrounded by coconut palm trees swaying in the wind, with greenery all around! It's quiet, peaceful, yet in the heart of everything you could want in a Florida vacation. All the beautiful beaches are just a few minutes away, as well as fishing, deep sea fishing, surfing, and kayaking too. We are surrounded by the best restaurants in Martin County! Historic downtown Stuart is just over the Roosevelt Bridge. Once you stay at Rio Retreat you will long to come back again and again!

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this home because it is a completely renovated vintage home, in a vintage neighborhood surrounded by the lush and tropical vibe of old Florida. I find the sea breezes, that blow in from the east refreshing and calming, while the warm sun relaxes me. I'm sure you will experience this too!
