    🌴 Location & Neighborhood

    The home is tucked into one of the Treasure Coast’s most walkable neighborhoods. Just steps away, you’ll find restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, salons, grocery stores, and local parks. The iconic banyan-lined Bridge Road will lead you straight to Hobe Sound Beach, where turquoise waters and white sand await. For nature lovers, there are countless preserves nearby for hiking, biking, kayaking, birdwatching, and even horseback riding. Centrally located between Jupiter and Stuart, this home keeps you close to everything the area has to offer.

    🏠 Inside the Home

    When you step inside, you’ll feel instantly at ease. To the right of the entryway, a hallway leads to the bedrooms. The master suite sits at the back left corner of the house and features a king bed and ensuite bathroom. Along the right side of the hall, you’ll find the queen bedroom and the twin bedroom, perfect for kids or friends. Just before reaching the bedrooms, the main bathroom is conveniently located, stocked with fresh towels and essentials.

    At the center of the home is the bright, fully stocked kitchen, thoughtfully labeled so you can easily find what you need. Just off the kitchen is a dining area where you can enjoy home-cooked meals while looking out toward the backyard. To the left of the kitchen, the game room offers fun for everyone with a pool table and darts. At the back of the house, the living room invites you to kick back on comfortable seating and enjoy movie nights on the 75-inch Roku TV.

    🌊 Backyard Paradise

    The backyard is a true oasis. A sparkling pool with a gentle waterfall sets the tone for relaxation, with hammocks at your convenience. A covered patio with a dining table makes it easy to enjoy meals outside, whether it’s breakfast in the fresh air or cocktails at sunset.

    🧺 Convenience & Comfort

    The laundry room is located next to the game room, with a washer, dryer, and supplies available for guest use.

    Other things to Note

    While the pool is professionally cleaned weekly, bamboo leaves may occasionally drift into the water; a skimmer net is provided for your convenience. We also use regular pest control services, but as with any Old Florida home, you may occasionally see a bug.

    This 1962 Zeus Park original offers a rare combination of history, charm, and modern amenities. Whether you’re spending the day at the beach, exploring nature preserves, or simply floating in the pool, this home offers the perfect setting for your Florida getaway. 🌴☀️

This was the perfect location for our family vacation. The house is big and roomy with all the amenities of being at home.The house is supplied with everything you need from cooking utensils to a flat iron for your hair. The beds are comfortable, the various rooms throughout the house let the family spread out and be comfortable, and being able to cooked in the well stocked kitchen was great. Kristen was very responsive to all our questions from the moment we booked to the minute we locked the door to leave. The welcome basket was an added treat. If we return to Florida, we will stay at the Salty Palm!!We recommend this home in Hobe Sound if you want a quiet and spacious location.

Wonderful stay! The host is very helpful and responsive to questions. There were so many nice little touches at this property that I’ve never had at other properties. Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels, very clean, convenient location. The pictures of the backyard didn’t do it justice, it was even nicer than we expected. We will be back and already recommended this property to family and friends.

We had such an amazing stay at this coastal Hobe Sound home. The location truly couldn’t be better close to shops, cafés, and just a short ride to the beach. Everything felt easy, fun, and relaxing from the moment we arrived.We absolutely loved all the extras the house offered. The bikes were perfect for exploring the neighborhood and nearby restaurants, and taking the paddle boards out on the intracoastal was such a memorable experience for our family. The heated pool in the backyard was our favorite spot we spent so much time relaxing. And the fire place near the pool was amazing. All of our family could be together.Inside, the house was very warm and welcoming feel. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the linens were soft and clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The thoughtful welcome basket was such a sweet surprise. The host kristen was very nice and communicated quickly with any questions we had, which made the entire stay smooth and stress free.We truly loved this house, appreciated every detail, 5 stars and couldn’t have picked a better place. We can’t wait to come back! Thanks for hosting us .

My family had a wonderful stay at Salty Palms in Hobe Sound. The home was perfect for us. We enjoyed the pool, pool table, and other amenities. The location was ideal being in the Zeus Park neighborhood and close to restaurants, coffee shops, and the beach. We were able to walk, run, or bike from the rental to these locations. The owner had great communication with us and was a thoughtful host. The property was clean and well-stocked. We hope to return for a longer visit.

Host was very nice and welcoming! Several concerns were noted: very limited hot water for showers, guest bath fan not working, outlet behind toaster oven not working, the master bath needs a long towel rack(s), and better silverware and a pair of scissors were needed.

What an amazing property! The kitchen (which was fully stocked with everything appliance you need to make great dinners and amazing breakfasts), the dining room, the two separate areas to relax indoors, the 3 bedrooms, the amazing walk in shower and the easy access to parking. But mostly, the outdoor area/—amazing, the perfect pool w:the waterfall, the amazing outdoor shower, the beautiful covered porch area w/ a beautiful table & chairs to eat outside, the amazing grill, the wonderful laundry room, the pool extra room w/ a couch, pool table and amazing games….this property is amazing. We’ve stayed at Tom’s of VRBO’s in the past 20 years, but this is the first one that underpromised and amazingly overdelivered. Did I mention the 3 amazing bikes, the pool toys, the beach chairs/umbrellas? Oh and the comfortable hammock plus the beautiful outdoor lighting that made the outside into a magical paradise. We will always stay here during our visits to Hobe Sound—our first visit, but we will be back. And…they are planning to make an outdoor pool house—how amazing. Being used to staying in vrbos, I was amazed w/ the fact they provided awesome paper towels, toilet paper, dishwashing detergent, clothing detergent w/awesome washer and dryers…the bath towels were ones I’d use at home & we brought our own beach towels but they provided amazing ones. They even provided an amazing crate and great dog toys. I know I’ve missed quite a few of the extra touches that made this visit SO special.
