I love providing a nice, homey place for my guests to enjoy the area and I love that my cottage is so well located for lots of activities they enjoy in the area. Being very near downtown Stuart and the beach have been good reasons for guests to stay. My guests also appreciate my attention to detail and response rate. I appreciate their good care and respect of my property. It's a win-win!
Great place and a good jumping off location for offshore fishing, NASA, Epcot and even a trip to the keys. Stuart is just the right size with enough restaurants, shopping and interesting history.

Jack wand his wife were dream guests. I could hardly tell anyone had stayed in my cottage after they left because it was so neat and tidy. Glad they said they had a good time and enjoyed their stay. I only wish we had gotten a chance to meet in person, but it was a crazy week for me. Next time. I would definitely love for them to return.
The house felt like home with all the amenities. Great location for us as we are active and could easily walk to downtown Stuart for a meal, to shop or listen to music.

Kathleen was a great guest who treated my cottage with utmost respect and care. I was delighted to meet her in person and have a nice chat and hear about all they had done and experienced in the area. I would welcome her back anytime.
This is a very nice property. Julia has done a fantastic job with the property and has many nice little touches. It is super clean and very convenient to the boardwalk and downtown Stuart. Would definitely go back.

Hi Greg, thanks for staying at my cottage. I'm so glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the nice review! Please come back and stay again, any time.
Julia's attention to detail is amazing. Every thing about the home is so relaxing. The kitchen has everything you will ever need. The property is beautifully landscaped and the night time accent lights are very nice too. We enjoyed the location. Just a short walk to Memorial Park and downtown. Stayed there twice and have booked another stay for next winter.

Charles and his wife are charming and it's always a pleasure to host them. I love that they love my cottage enough to be repeat visitors. And they are wonderful guests!
This house is a gem. We were visiting relatives in the area and we needed a small rental for a couple of us. The location is close to the Riverwalk and wonderful shops and restaurants. Our host Julia was very attentive. I highly recommend Coastal Karma if you are staying in or about Stuart

I'm so happy that Joanne and her party were able to enjoy themselves and their time in Stuart by calling my cottage their home for the time they were in town. They were perfect guest and left my cottage as neat as a pin.
We had a great time after we had to flee from hurricane Ian.
The Cottage was a nice place to enjoy our vacation. It was very clean with all the amenities you need.
We had a great time.
Thanks Julia for your support.

Britta and Boris were excellent guests, so neat and tidy. I would host them again anytime. I was so delighted to be their “shelter from the storm” in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian.
This is a great cottage; the decor is perfectly beachy and is very well stocked, Julia thought of everything. The backyard and covered deck are a great place to relax.
It is in a quiet location, but close proximity to historic downtown Stuart, great nearby restaurants and shops and a short drive to the beaches. We would love to come back again, and highly recommend Coastal Karma Cottage.

John and Traci were delightful guests, left my place in very good condition and even helped save my grass, garden flowers and trees from dying by watering them by hand several times due to my sprinkler system being on the blink while they were there. I got it fixed right after they left, but they saved the day with their willingness to pitch in like that. They would be welcome back anytime. We had a good visit while they were there.
I always appreciate a guest who is proactive about communication, such as Lisa was. She let me know the details of who was in her group and when that changed she updated me. She and her group left my cottage spotless. I would welcome her back anytime.
This home has everything one needs for a nice visit. It’s close enough to downtown Stuart, ~a mile, that we frequently walk to town. Julia’s detail to the house, from the impeccable landscaping to great furnishings, make us feel at home. Communication is always prompt, easy and pleasant.

I enjoyed having Kathleen as a repeat visitor and I'm looking forward to her coming back in 2025. So excited that she already booked her stay. She took very good care of the property and left it as neat as a pin. I would highly recommend her to any other host.
This is by far the best VRBO property my wife and I have stayed at. Over the years we have stayed an many properties that were great and I rated at 5 stars. This home beats them all and there should be a way to add a 6th or 7th star for Julias wonderful cottage. Great location, very comfortable, scenic back yard, and so much attention to every detail. hope we will be abbe to stay again someday.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Karma Cottage. Perfect location in Stuart and amazing property! Julia has made this “home” for anyone who stays in this comfortable and immaculate cottage. We wanted for nothing as she has thought of everything needed to feel cozy and welcomed. As a former SoFLoridian, felt this was close to all amenities (old downtown, restaurants, grocery, etc.) and short drive access to the beautiful beaches of East Coast Florida. We highly recommend staying in this slice of heaven in Stuart, FL!

It is my utmost desire to provide a “home away from home” for the happy travelers who stay at my cottage. I enjoy meeting my guests and hearing about their adventures and where they are from. I always appreciate when they like my cottage and return whenever possible. I look forward to my most recent guest, Judi’s return, for sure. We had a great visit and she left my cottage as neat as a pin.
So many positives! The location is great - quiet street close to a very cute downtown area for food, drinks & shopping. The house is set up for comfort and relaxation. Very thoughtful host who provides snacks and drinks along with clear instructions to ensure an easy stay. Everything you need (or forgot at home) is there. Julia - thank you for sharing your place with me!

Excellent beach theme cottage within walking distance to downtown Stuart
Every detail well thought out. Excellent coastal theme design. Within walking distance to town and 8 minute drive to Hutchinson Island beaches. Owner had set up cottage with snacks,coffee with creamers, chocolates and a bottle of wine in refrigerator. Great welcome book with places to visit and restaurants. Rode the bikes around neighborhood and up to town. Enjoyed art show and Sunday music and craft fairs. Wonderful experience,will return again

I absolutely loved having Cheryl and Mike stay at my cottage. They were very respectful of the property, leaving everything neat and tidy, just the kind of guests every host would like to have, and very communicative. I'm so glad I had the chance to meet them in person, one of the highlights for me of owning a vacation rental home. They were so delightful and interesting. I hope they return as often as possible..
Everything about this place is outstanding. It's clean, comfortable, and extremely well appointed including the two bikes. We cooked in often and the kitchen has everything you would need, We especially enjoyed the covered patio and lovely backyard for relaxing and meals. The cottage is on a quiet street conveniently located within walking distance to town and the Riverwalk. Communicating with Julia was easy and she will do everything to make your stay enjoyable. We look forward to returning to our home away from home. Bob H.

Bob and his wife were great guests and I would welcome them back anytime. They were very communicative and respectful of my property. I was happy to host them for a whole month and even happier that it looked as neat and tidy when they checked out as the day they checked in!
We pulled into the circular drive and were very pleased with the looks of the outside of the cottage. Inside, was another delight. Modern, well decorated, kitchen fully equipped, both bedrooms were lovely, we had a difficult time choosing which to use. Many amenities such as snack crackers, beer and water in the frig, Pellagrino water to use for drinks, drip coffee maker as well as Keurig both with starter coffee to use. We could not believe the thoughtfulness. The owner stopped by soon after we arrived to meet us with a warm welcome. The patio was exceptionally nice with plenty of chairs and tables and an outdoor TV. The yard was landscaped beautifully, I took pictures. We walked each morning in the quiet neighborhood and enjoyed the bench out front after our walk. We would definitely return to this cottage. Judi and Jack

Thank you so much, Jack, for your kind words and your desire to return. You would be most welcome! You and your wife were wonderful guests and I’m delighted you had a nice time and enjoyed my cottage. I believe in the Golden Rule and enjoy treating my guests to a 5 star stay.
Our host, Julia, was amazing and was extremely attentive to our questions before and during our stay. She came by to meet us several days in and make sure all was perfect. She has all of the necessities ready to go so that settling in takes no time. The deck and yard are quite large and provide opportunities to sit and relax. Convenient to downtown Stuart for local dining, shopping and events and minutes from beaches and stores. The bikes were a much appreciated bonus to this property and we’re in great shape. We stayed 2 weeks and felt completely at home.
Awesome place to stay- Its the home you wished you had in FL
The pictures on the website are accurate, the place is cozy, comfortable and inviting. I would stay here again. The location is close to both the downtown and the beach. And the host was exceptional- This is the best VRBO I've stayed at!

Peggy was a wonderful guest and I would host her again anytime. I was delighted to meet her in person and discover we had a mutual friend! It's truly a small world. Peggy was neat and tidy, taking care of my property nicely and she would be welcome back anytime!
The cottage is very well designed and well decorated. The neighbor hood is quiet and peaceful. The property description is accurate and the house was well equipped with nothing left for you to do but relax and enjoy your stay.

If you’re looking for peace and quiet, you’ll find it at Coastal Karma Cottage. My guests are always appreciative of my courtesy welcome gifts of water, wine, chocolate, coffee and fresh flowers to start off their stay in as pleasant a manner as possible. My most recent guest, Benjamin, was a delight and left the cottage in immaculate condition which I appreciated very much. He would be welcome back any time.
Julia’s place was perfectly situated between the village and the beach. The cottage was nicely renovated and well equipped. We particularly liked the kitchen as a great place to. cook for our 3 week stay. The rear deck was a bonus for eating breakfast and hanging out I also appreciate the beach chairs and umbrella as well as the two bikes

About the host
Hosted by Julia C. Sansevere, PA
“Home” is in my nature. Following in my mother’s footsteps. She was a Realtor, my first Broker, and after 30 years of doing real estate she opened her ancestral home in Huntsville, TX as an exquisite B&B for 30 years. I’ve been doing real estate for about 15 years and found this cute little house that I can do the modern version of a BnB on VRBO! In tribute to my sweet mom who is in Heaven now.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with its charm. It was built in 1950 and has a large covered patio deck and a huge backyard that encourages relaxing and taking it easy. I renovated it and brought it up to date so that it’s a perfect getaway place to getaway from it all. Everyone says, “It’s got good karma.”
What makes this property unique
Large covered back patio deck for dining al fresco. Huge backyard freshly landscaped with floral and palm trees. Butterfly garden at the back steps of the patio attracts the prettiest butterflies. Good space for hanging out with friends and family. And you’re close to downtown Stuart in one direction and the beach in the other direction.
