About this villa rental
Situated in Hutchinson Island, this charming villa for R 19,145 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. HAVE IT ALL — Live/Work/Play/Relax on your own private beach—and at your very own private luxury ocean-to-river beach house. Get far away from the crowds ... and get closer to those who matter the most. Less than an hour away from Palm Beach International Airport, arrive at your own 5-star oceanfront palace on a remote barrier island on the FL Treasure Coast, located in "America's Happiest Seaside City" (Coastal Living Magazine national award winner; see more below). Your own beach house is a tranquil oasis, safely isolated worlds away from the troubles of the day. Need to connect online? Enjoy a rare luxury among vacation rentals: Gigabit-speed commercial-grade secure Wi-Fi internet so fast, you can stream 4K movies at night. And the signal is so powerful, you can work from outside, while on the beach or at the end of the dock. (Perfect for the kids' homework/homeschooling, too.) SPOTLESSLY CLEAN — We meet & exceed all safety measures & best practices specified by the CDC, FL Dept. of Health, and FL Dept. of Business & Professional Regulation. We utilize hospital-grade cleaning & disinfectant standards, and stock your home with cleaning supplies, alcohol, wipes, hand sanitizer & more. (During the initial pandemic shutdowns in Spring 2020, our spotlessly-clean homes passed muster with "front line" teams at hospitals & medical departments, who leased multiple beach houses to host entire hospital nursing units and doctor families for extended stays during those first scary months (when the mode of transmission was not yet clear). SAFE — This home is managed by Beach Houses in Paradise, the 20-year leader in Florida beachfront vacation rentals. SAVE — with the owner's many discount plans: FL resident, senior, first responder, military, education, medical, civil service, volunteer & more. ABOUT THE HOME: Wear your t-shirt, shorts & flip-flops to the airport, because that's all you need to pack for your Florida beach-house vacation, we provide the rest. Travel light—and live large—with the fully stocked, meticulously maintained 5-Star-amenity properties of Beach Houses in Paradise. (At BHIP, our motto is "We stock heavy, so you can travel light.") Italian for "The sweet life", La Dolce Vita is an 8-bedroom, 5-bath European-style luxury pool home which sits directly on the Atlantic Ocean, and directly across the street from the Indian River (w/private dock). Get everybody together at your own private beachfront luxury home, & live the sweet life. (La Dolce Vita is especially well-suited for family reunions, groups of friends, and religious/corporate/group retreats.) At rates starting at less than $100 per night per bedroom, enjoy 5-star luxury amenities, accommodations and an ON-the-beach location at a price you can afford. (It's like champagne on a beer budget!) Note: La Dolce Vita is rented only to one party at a time; you will not be sharing the premises with strangers or unknown travelers. Already a high-end luxury beach villa, the majestic property was further upgraded and restored recently with all-new beds & furnishings, 4K UHD TVs, water toys, high-speed business-class Wi-Fi internet, & more. La Dolce Vita is one of the few BHIP homes that feature both a built-in heated pool & a private elevator (no more stairs!) Plus: With its huge double-oven kitchen & spacious open floor plan that can entertain up to a few dozen in the same room (see pictures), and ample parking, this sparkling palace is one of our best-suited beach houses for small events & gatherings (Note: La Dolce Vita is *NOT* a party house) With 8 bedrooms and 5 baths,100 linear feet on both the ocean and bay/river, a big oceanfront relaxation deck (and separate observation/sundeck), plus riverfront dock, and more than 3600 square feet of bedrooms, bathrooms and living area, La Dolce Vita is among the largest and most luxuriously appointed ocean-to-river beach houses available in the USA. And 15 paces from your front door is a nature-preserve walkway that leads to your own 300-foot-long deep-water private dock on the Indian River, offering some of the best fishing in the world, and stocked with all your favorite water toys (complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, snorkel gear, bicycles, boogie boards, fishing gear, metal detectors, and more). Own a boat? Bring it! Moor it at your own private dock, and there's even room to park your trailer. RV? room for that too!

About BHIP: La Dolce Vita is one of several luxury 5-star properties operated by Beach Houses in Paradise, the 20-year leader in offering 5-star luxury, amenities and service in sunny FL beachfront settings. — ALL-INCLUSIVE / EVERYTHING IS INCLUDED: From bicycles to beach blankets, towels to toilet paper, paddleboards to picnic baskets, and all points between. Did you know that fewer than 25% of the FL listings on VRBO include high chairs for little ones? And less than half of listings include an iron/ironing board? (Experiment with the VRBO "More Filters" search feature and see for yourself) Many vacation rentals don't even provide you a full supply of toilet paper (!) or such basics as towels, bed linens, toiletries, paper goods or even cooking essentials like salt, pepper, spices, oils & other basic staples. And can you imagine arriving at your vacation rental, only to discover that there are no coolers, ice, beach chairs, beach towels, beach blankets, umbrellas and beach toys like sand pails, bikes, cornhole, volleyball, kayaks, & horseshoes? Why waste the first day of your precious vacation—& more money—shopping at the local Wal-Mart? Instead, book a Beach House in Paradise and begin relaxing the ~moment~ you arrive. (We even pre-heat hot tubs & pools & put out the bathrobes & towels so your relaxing beach vacation can start the moment you arrive.) No hidden fees: Other vacation-rental companies nickel & dime you with surcharges such as pool-heating fees, Wi-Fi surcharges, fees for using shampoos & soaps, rental fees for kayaks, bikes & paddleboards, even a fee if you don't empty the refrigerator at the end of your stay(!) At BHIP, there are no hidden surcharges, fines or penalties. Plus: Enjoy our complimentary water toys & recreational items. Kayaks, paddleboards, bicycles, fishing & snorkel gear & more. Jet skis & boats available, too! — VIDEOS, 3D TOURS, FLOOR PLANS & MORE: Want a closer look at the beach house? Just ask! We have videos, architectural floor plans, Immersive 3D Tours, and more. (Note: All communications must take place on the VRBO platform; this home is available only via VRBO) — PERFECT LOCATION: Not only is the home situated in the most biodiverse marine environment in North America (source: Florida Oceanographic Institute), it's also located in Stuart FL, 2024 winner of the USA Today "Best Coastal Small Towns in America" rankings. (And #1 winner of the "Happiest Seaside Town in USA" award by Coastal Living Magazine!) Locals of a certain age—that remember TV's "The Andy Griffith Show"—proudly call Stuart the "Mayberry of Florida". — WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT OUR AREA (Stuart, FL): * USA Today: #1 Best Coastal Small Town in America (2024 winner) * Coastal Living Magazine: #1 Happiest Seaside Town in America (2016) * House Beautiful Magazine: #1 Most Beautiful Small Town in Florida * Smithsonian Magazine: Best Small Towns to Visit in the U.S. (3rd place) * America In Bloom (Audubon group): #1 Most Beautiful City in America * American Planning Association: #1 City in Florida (2020 winner) * Oprah Winfrey: "Most charming American towns you've never heard of" (6th place, O Magazine, Jan 2020) * FindTheHome: #1 Best Place to Retire in the U.S. * OnlyInYourState: 1 of 8 "Most Beautiful Small Towns in Florida" * HuffingtonPost: Top Florida Beach Towns — EVENTS & CELEBRATIONS: Planning a modest event or small gathering at the home? Or is your rental in association with an event held at a nearby venue? We'd love to help! Event-related reservations are approved on a case-by-case basis. Please note that due to the pristine, delicate barrier-island environment, special restrictions may apply (COVID-19 restrictions may also apply). Important: Please inquire about your event BEFORE booking (to avoid paying cancellation fee). — MORE THAN 12 ADULTS? La Dolce Vita might be a tight fit. Please inquire before booking. — Nervous about alligators? Don't be! They don't exist in this part of Florida. (Gators can't survive near the beach in saltwater environments; they live only inland, where there is fresh water.) — A TREASURE CHEST OF DELIGHT: The home sits in the middle of the "Treasure Coast". To this very day, gold doubloons, pieces of eight & other Spanish treasure still wash up along Hutchinson Island, after big storms. (Complimentary beach-comber metal-detectors and instructions are provided.) — HELP PRESERVE OUR PRISTINE AREA * Don't approach dolphins, sea turtles & manatees (often seen near the end of the dock). These are protected species. The offshore marine patrol prosecutes aggressively. * Please clean up after a successful day fishing. Discard all hooks, line & litter.

Very nice stay, even with some plumbing issues that were addressed by Al promptly. Thank you!! Though I wish I knew that there is only outside stairs to go up and down between the 2 floors (other than the elevator which is not to be used by kids). Nice property but tight for 11 adults and 5 kids. Luckily we had that maximum for only 2 nights

Our family had a fabulous time. Dolphins swimming in your backyard everyday. Turtles nesting, beautiful beach with thousands of shells. Fishing off the dock with shrimp we caught at least 18 fish. The house is open great kitchen set up. Sunrises were beautiful. It worked great for our wedding and our kid’s birthday. Plus my husbands. If you have the opportunity stay at this rental.

Perfect location! Perfect place! They are not kidding that the house is stocked with EVERYTHING.... Fishing gear, water walkers, footballs, volleyball net, ping pong table....I could go on and on!

Booked this property mainly due to its location and was shocked how much the house had to offer. Can't count how many times we went back and forth from the fishing dock to the beach as both were very nice to be at. I was beyond impressed with how great renting through Beach house in Paradise was. Theres to many things to list so I would recommend to anyone to give them a try if they havent already. We would definitely book another trip though them.

This property and experience was 5 stars. Everything was provided, I mean everything. The location is one in a million. The check out process was just like leaving a resort, no pulling bed sheets and long checklists to dread. We definitely will be back for a much longer stay!

Whenever we are in the area. We always make sure we stay in one of Al’s properties. He’s always treated as well and always make sure that we have everything we need. If we have any issues, he gets them taken care of immediately I would always suggest to stay at one of his properties.

We had a Great Time with Family and Grandkids!! 2nd stay with this property manager property had everything you need. We had a Plumming issue taken care of right away. We should have been a little more careful when reviewing beds we had 4 couples with kids so not a lot of privacy for adults in the basement with shared baths. But over all love the beach there its not crowded and some what private. Thanks!!!

We've been to many, many VRBO's and this property and owner takes the cake as THE best. Thoughtful is an understatement: everything you could have wanted (and things you didn't even realize you did) are taken care of and plentiful. The owner/manager anticipate your every need. The property is perfection, on a gorgeous, empty beach. The home is perfection, with so many rooms and comfortable furnishings. We will 1,000% be back!
5.0
This home is just better than all the reviews. The owner just went really above and beyond to make our stay that much better than any other stays we've had on any other properties.
Every detail was put in place with intention, from the check in process to check out, everything went very smoothly.
I'll give this property a 10 stars out of 5. Everything in the house was super clean and in perfect working conditions: sheets, towels, dinnerware, fridge, stove, pool, bbq, etc.
The beach is just a few steps away and it was perfect, just like the lagoon with canoes and paddle boards.
Everything in the house was in perfect working order and every amenity was very well thought out.
We will definitely be stating again in this property!

If you have kids....
Anyone with kids should know that the downstairs is quite separate. There are no interior stairs going between the floors.
The upstairs is really nice, the downstairs is not nearly as nice.
Beach was awesome! The kids labeled the bunk bed room as "the asylum." It was not a very nice room...
But, we had a great time and the property was super-clean and the checkout process was delightful.

Excellent stay
We have gone to Dolce Vita for 2 years - all 18 of us. Both years, we have been super impressed with absolutely everything. We needed more beach chairs, they were delivered within an hour. We needed help with working a tv, there were helping us within 30 minutes. The service and accommodations were top notch. We highly recommend Dolce Vita for a large family get together. You are located smack in the beach. No one will be disappointed!!!!!! Thank you To Al and his team. You gave our whole family ranging from 85 years old to 14 years old an unbelievable place to make memories!!!!

Our group of 8 adults and 4 children had an absolute blast at La Dolce Vita! The house was stocked with everything we could possibly need and was located in a very safe area. Al was great and quick to respond to any questions we had. I would recommend any families with kids make sure they are sleeping in one of the two primary bedrooms upstairs as the two primary bedrooms downstairs are in the garage/a bit detached from the main house. We would highly recommend La Dolce Vita!!

La Dolce Vita is absolute paradise! The house is incredible and fully stocked with EVERYTHING. We really enjoyed paddle boarding on the river side of the property and found the rock formations on the beach to be very unique to Florida. They made the beach extra special! Al had a nearly immediate response to any question we had about the property (great service)!
Overall we had a truly amazing vacation at La Dolce Vita! We were very sad to leave. Without hesitation we would choose this property in the future and we hope to stay there again real soon!

Location, location, location😉. We had a wonderful vacation and plenty of room for all. The kitchen is so well stocked that all the cooks were happy. Anyone can find faults with things but the management company would be on any issue if needed. I think one of the things I liked the most😉was so many linens and towels There is nothing worse than not having a clean towel but this house had more than enough for 10 days and 16 people. I will definitely use the management company again for the perfect property. They are very picky who the allow to rent, now I see why. I hope we will be welcomed back!

We loved our stay here for so many reasons! The location is beautiful - sunrise on the beach and sunset on the dock. We saw manatees directly off the dock, caught a nice snook on the beach, and enjoyed all the beach toys for kids and adults. The pool was perfect for kids - having it under cover kept away the worries of sunburn or bad weather. The rental company was amazing - very responsive, no issues when we were there, everything you could possibly need in stock, and NO responsibilities for checkout - just pack your bags and go. We will definitely be coming back or renting another property within the management company. Thanks for a great vacation!!
