Heaven Can't Wait: ON the BEACH!! Heated pool + hot tub, private dock. 9BR/5BA

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 -- Covid might be over, but we still clean our homes to hospital-grade CDC standards.

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 bring for your Florida beach-house vacation … We provide the rest. Travel light—and live large—with the fully-stocked, 5-Star-amenity properties of Beach Houses in Paradise. (At BHIP, our motto is "We stock heavy, so you can travel light.")

Featuring 9 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, and a new heated oceanfront swimming pool, Heaven Can't Wait is where Ocean-to-River fabulousness meets outer-banks-style architecture: A member of the Beach Houses in Paradise family, the home is fitted with luxury furnishings throughout, and five-star amenities including a private heated oceanfront swimming pool and an oceanfront hot tub. HCW is also pet-friendly, on a pet-friendly beach & river, with dog-wash stations, grassy area next door, & more. The perfect marriage of seaside serenity & water fun! Step off the back porch into the Atlantic Ocean. Walk 15 paces from the front yard to your private dock on the mile-wide Indian River. Fantastic fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, jet skis & more.

The home is situated on a private beach in a quiet residential area. No condos, high rises or large public beaches for miles ... just a beach all to yourself and your group. Just across the street is your own 200-foot-long deep-water private dock on the Indian River, offering some of the best fishing in the world, & stocked with all your favorite complimentary water toys and fishing gear.

At rates starting at less than $100 per night per bedroom, enjoy 5-star luxury amenities & accommodations at an affordable price (It's like champagne on a beer budget). Note: The home is rented only to one party at a time; you will not be sharing the premises with strangers.

REVIEWS: Read our reviews, and see how families and groups like your own are enjoying five-star experiences IN THEIR OWN HOUSE, at a fraction of the price of a beachfront hotel or resort! For more than 1,000 additional five-star reviews of BHIP homes in the same neighborhood, type "VRBO Beach houses in Paradise" into your favorite internet search service and read all of our five-star VRBO reviews for BHIP beach houses just like this one.



FITNESS / TENNIS / PICKLEBALL / GOLF & MORE SWIMMING POOLS: While the ocean and river are fun, and the home's private heated pool and soothing jacuzzi hot tub are also a blast, some outdoor fanatics still want MORE: So, with your stay of 1 week or longer, the owner includes FREE complimentary passes to 3 resort-style pools at the nearby Ocean Club @ the Marriott Hutchinson Island Resort, conveniently located just 1 mile north of the home.

About BHIP: Heaven Can’t Wait 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)

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!




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)

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? Heaven Can't Wait 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

The river is considered among the most biologically rich & environmentally sensitive estuary in North America. Our owners avidly support local environmental groups, contributing millions in recent decades.

Help preserve our 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.

2nd time staying in paradise
This is our 2nd time at the home and 3rd time booking with Al and BHIP. When they say they have everything you need they are not exaggerating. We particularly love this property because it has the river on one side and the ocean on the other so it’s perfect for fishing and sunbathing. The management team is #1 and will make sure you have whatever you need for an awesome vacation

Despite the fact that the weather didn't offer us an opportunity to enjoy all of the amenities offered to us.....kayaks, fishing rods, paddle boards etc, we had an amazing time at an amazing home. The owner has this home stocked to a level that I've never seen with regard to dishes, pots, pans, glasses, every condiment you can think of, paper products etc etc. I would highly recommend this home if you're looking for amazing views, a beautiful clean home, and a fabulous host.

This is the perfect place for a family vacation. Clean and stocked with everything you may need
Great house - clean - fully stocked, The photo of the oceanfront is deceiving - it looks like seaweed in the pictures and not the coral rocks that are actually there, no actual beach unless you walk down the beach a bit. The steps to get into the pool needs repair immediately. It is not easy get up and down the steps - it pulls up out of the ground. Overall - we loved "heaven can't wait"

Fully stocked house on the beach
The house was fully equipped for a perfect vacation. It had anything from a shower cap to mosquito repellant, fully stocked kitchen with all utensils and condiments. They even had a welcome basket and bathroom kits for each bathroom. If you have dogs they had dog bowl and doggie beds prepped and ready to go. TVs in everyone. Nice jacuzzi over seeing the water and small pool. Lots balconies front and back. Pier with a kayak, fishing poles etc. workout room. Of note, the house has 4 bedrooms 3 upstairs and fully equipped efficiency in the first floor. The house is located behind a rocky beach. There are rocks all along the water and hard to get into. However, there are plenty of beaches nearby along A1A. We had a nice vacation and did different activities each day.

Stay here! You'll LOVE it
Our trip was over Spring Break - last week of March - 2 families - 6 teenagers and 4 adults. First - we LOVED Stuart Florida and Hutchinson Island. Peaceful, beachy...not tons to do but that's what we wanted out of this beach vacay. There are good restuarants, golf, and a grocery store all within 2 miles...plus the downtown Stuart area is classic beachy cool. The house was amazing -- our communication with the property manager was the best I've had in any VRBO. The house was super clean and stocked with things we didn't even think we needed! Plenty of toys, towels, hygiene items - also the kitchen had everything we needed (except a bottle opener-haha). This was really the best prepped VRBO we've ever been in. The backyard is the beach - literally steps to an almost private Atlantic side beach with great waves, good sand, very little seaweed and no jellyfish for us! The front of the house has a pier where we fished everyday - the kids took out the provided paddleboards and kayaks - and we had little bonfires at night! The bedroom spaces were perfect for all the kids and us - -- especially the downstairs "apartment". The house is NOT super huge, but big enough to accomodate our group. It's quirky - which we loved. Can' t say enough good things about this management group -- they really "get it" and strive to make everything as easy as possible. We'd love to stay there again.

Happiness!
Reviewing this property is both complicated and easy! It’s complicated because I don’t want to leave anything out, but it’s also easy because everything about this property was amazing! We started our day with the sunrise over the ocean, and paddle boarded and kayaked into the sunset over the river every night. The amenities are well thought out…from the gift baskets, to little gifts in each room, plus toiletries if you need. The kitchen has seasonings and condiments for meals, coffee and tea choices galore, more than enough paper and plastic goods. There are towels, and blankets to accommodate an army. I can’t forget the ice machines - a major plus!! The property manager goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy. I am so glad I booked this property because the memories will last a lifetime. We spent our days between the ocean, pool and river. We spent our evenings cooking, playing games, and enjoying the hot tub. Every family member loved this property and enjoyed everything it had to offer! This is truely a great house!

Amazing experience in a breathtaking property
this was our first experience with VRBO and Beach Houses in Paradise, but I can guarantee it won’t be the last. Breathtaking views of sunrise and sunset with plenty of space for the family. Every detail was well thought out, even down to them. Having games for the kids to play before bed. Yes they have 2 PlayStation 4’s and an Xbox but somehow my family of 6 made it through without ever turning them on. The beach was beautiful, coral and rocks prohibit surfing or boogy boarding buy can’t change that. The hot tub and pool facing the beach gave us a ton of options. The river said it as well appointed, and they had everything imaginable for the family. From water shoes and life vests, to full Kayaks and paddle boards. Wanna go fishing? The 50 foot dock made it easy, so if you didn’t want to go out on the water, you could sit and kast. We had a big fire and roasted marshmallows out by the river one night, what beach trip would be complete without s’mores? If you’ve made it this far, I promise I don’t work for BHIP or own the property. I am a very detail oriented person, and they hit it out of the park with every opportunity. 5 stars all around.
