Garland and his wife were amazing! They stopped by several times to assure we had everything we need and made some great recommendations including the French bakery which is a few minutes walk from the house. The property was very comfortable and well outfitted. Everything we needed for a five week stay. Beds were comfortable and Garland arranged for a separate apartment next door when our three college sons visited over Easter. The back yard was quiet with plenty of space to spread out and relay. The pool is amazing..
The location could not be any more convenient. A few blocks from Atlantic Avenue and the Beach. A short walk to the supermarket. We hardly ever had to use our house. Overall, just a perfect experience!

Great Stay
My family and I enjoyed our stay at this cost Florida cottage. Our host, Garland, is friendly and communicates well insuring all went smoothly during our time. The kitchen is well equipped - I didn't cook much but I saw there is all that's needed to produce a nice meal. The pool is toasty warm and very private. The out door dining area is very nice and adjacent to the pool. The property is close to downtown but quiet and safe. You'll enjoy it.

2 weeks in paradise
Just returned from 2 glorious weeks at the beautiful Villa Athena. Our stay was just fantastic and only magnified by our gracious hosts, Joy & Garland...who ensured that all of our needs were met. The Villa is fabulous as the pictures don't do it justice. If you ever have a desire and / or opportunity to visit Delray Beach, THIS is the place to stay! From the convenience to shops, restaurants and the beach, you can't do better than the Villa Athena.

Excellent stay.
My wife and myself booked this home for two weeks in October and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is spotlessly clean with good quality furnishings and kitchen appliances.
The pool area is a lovely space to sit at when you return from the beach or to do some barbecuing on an evening.
It is a very short walk to Atlantic Avenue where you will find many good restaurants and bars for your evening entertainment.
If we ever go back to Delray this would be our home of choice for our vacation.

Absolutely Perfect
My husband, my eight month old, and I, along with my sister and her family (husband and two kids) stayed at two of Garland and Joy's properties. Villa Athena and one of the Villa Palm Trail condos. Garland was amazing to work with through the entire process. He answered all of of questions as we planned for the trip and then was more than accommodating the entire time we were there. The condos were beautifully decorated and spotless upon arrival! The pool and backyard in Villa Athena were absolutely perfect for both adults and children. We grilled, relaxed, and enjoyed cocktails around the pool just about all day and night. Because of the awesome condos it was hard to decide between whether we should stay in or go to one of the hundreds of awesome restaurants Delray has to offer. The tv area outside in Villa Athena was also awesome for when someone just needed a break from the sun or pool! We will definitely be back! Thanks for a wonderful family vacation!

When can we go back???
This is the third place we rented in Delray Beach and we couldn't believe what a great location this house was in. I was able to walk to the beach and back every morning and then take a dip in the pool. The yard was very quiet and relaxing with a beautiful pool. The house itself was neat and clean and updated. If there were any problems Joy and Garland took care of them asap. This is a house we will definitely return to.

Lovely house in perfect position
We stayed here for just under one month. We were welcomed by Garland who showed us the house and who had thoughtfully bought in some food supplies. Very welcome after a long journey from England. The house is nicely furnished with everything you need. The main bed is extremely comfortable and the linen is wonderfully soft. Beautiful pool and outdoor area with a great outside room where you can relax and watch TV. Garland and Joy were so friendly and on hand to help straight away with any little problem. The house is a lovely street and very convenient, just a 10 minute walk to the middle of Atlantic Avenue and 20 minutes to the beach. We had a pass for 2 chairs and a cabana on the beach, which was great. Great stay. Would recommend.

Perfect Delray secluded Luxury getaway 3 blocks from antlantic and less than 10 min walk to beach!
If your looking for a place right in the heart 9of Delray beach, look no further! I prefer being on the opposite side of the intercoastal bridge opposite beach because you only spend a few hours at the beach so you can walk less than ten min or put in for a free ride on the downtowner (a gold cart seating up 6 or 8 and work off tips only) and taker you anywhere in Delray! And I say I prefer the other side of the bridge because there is more action on that side and that is where you will spend majority of your day and night!!! That's the hot happening area and they are located 3 blocks (less than 5 min walk) from antlantic and turn right and walk for miles and everything and anything to do!!! So that's the area and onto the good part...the villa!!! So many great things to say especially the hospitality of joy and garland!! Such wonderful people and so accommodating. They truly want to make their guests happy to the best of their ability. I booked the brand new apartment next door and then stumbled upon the villa Athena afterward and the we're not quite sure they could swing it and then it looked promising but fell through. When I told then how much we were in love with that one, they worked their magic which I know was a stretch but I know they did it because they wanted us to be happy and comfortable. And glad it worked our because the villa was perfect (although apartments looked great too...we were hoping to have the outdoor TV area for night time relaxing and overlooking the pool and our own private secluded pool) so this villa was just a little more what we had in mind for a nice private oasis! So thank you joy and garland for doing that, we appreciate it. They also made sure to come by and introduce themselves and brought a welcome gift of watermelon and wine, beer sweet and thoughtful...and wanted to make sure we had everything we needed and showed us a quick run-through on everything and they were always available for answering any questions. Anything you need is pretty much stocked. Laundry and kitchen stuff (cleaning supplies, paper towels, laundry detergent, dish soap, etc!) all at your fingertips! House was very well decorated and very homey...joys doing! Family room is cozy from furniture to the decor...just that warm home feeling! Bedrooms perfect! The kitchen was very roomy.the outdoor fully enclosed yard was beautiful! Serene! The pool was like bath water and perfect for my liking! I watched TV every night outside before bed! Thanks again

Perfect all around
My husband and I stayed for a week while touring South Florida and I cannot overstate how delighted we were in our decision to stay in Athena! It was perfect from the curbside appeal to the secluded backyard with pool and Cabana area.
As others have stated everything about this place is done with the utmost care to detail and style. Garland was so helpful in all our dealings and it is obvious him and Joy take great pride in making it comfortable. We enjoyed the use of the bikes to ride around town exploring the area, but we LOVED coming back to our little piece of paradise at the end of the day floating in the pool feeling miles away but close to everything. If you are looking in Del Ray, look no further than Athena… Thanks Garland and Joy for the memories made! Hope to visit again soon

'Couldn't have been happier!
My wife and I drove down from New York City, needless to say we were pretty fried when we arrived. But there was Garland waving at us in front of this gorgeously hip house and our vacation began. This house is even better than the photos , relaxing yet beachy elegant. The pool and cabana area were perfect and , and this is great, a short walk to town , restaurants , shopping and the pristine beach! I hate to gush too much because I want it to be available when we next come down....two words: Grab it!

Santorini and Athena
The start of my vacation was. A girls weekend with some of the girls who had just gone through some tuff times.. And a winter of the most snow ever!! We rented a boat with the mariner close by.. Food store around the corner and could walk everywhere !! Coming home each day to a lovely home and nice pool was fantastic.. After the girls left my husband joined me for dinning and nights just laying around the pool... The owners who were always helpful are fantastic people... I could keep going but will sum up by saying it's clearly a wonderful place!! Thanks to joy and garland for everything !! See you next year as I rented again ...

stylish, private, and so perfectly located
We stayed a month at the Villa Athena. It exudes comfort and consideration from the beautiful beach decor to the perfect pool area. The outdoor TV area was a real treat. Everything worked so well and Joy and Garland couldn't have been nicer when we had a request or wondered how something worked. It's so clean, bright and airy that I didn't even turn on a light until sundown. You can walk everywhere (downtown, the beach, grocery shopping, banks, even a bike rental) and then come home and be totally private. It's an oasis in the midst of the very exciting Delray Beach scene.

Wonderful, relaxing and well equipped!
We had a fantastic week and loved spending our mornings and evenings in this little gem. Great location....walk to the beach, inter coastal and Atlantic Avenue. Our boys loved the covered outdoor area with tv. We ate all of our meals outside. Owners were very helpful when we contacted them. Great place.

Great Getaway in Delray
Excellent rental for Christmas week, Joy and Garland were very nice and very helpful. My wife, her elderly mother and I enjoyed the entire property, the pool and backyard area were great, used the grill twice. The living room is very comfortable for visiting or watching TV. The beach passes were a nice bonus! Would definitely rent again.
I would only make one suggestion to the owners to make it a perfect spot. I think all rental homes should be stocked with starter basics, like paper products, dishwasher liquid, etc so when renters arrive an immediate trip to the store to buy supplies is not mandatory.
Otherwise, this rental had all top quality linens, sheets, towels, kitchen utensils, glassware and cookware, everything needed to insure a comfortable stay.

Perfect...we'll definitely be back!!
My wife and I booked last minute and stayed for 2 weeks. Joy and Garland were wonderful - more than accommodating, warm and welcoming. The place itself was incredible - bright, clean, and very well-decorated. We used the outside tv area the whole time, and loved it! The pool gets sun all day. The kitchen is roomy and easy to spread out and cook in. Can walk to downtown Delray Beach. We rented bikes a block away and rode to the beach easily. They had membership cards there that allowed us to get beach chairs and umbrellas. Really...it was perfect and amazing. We visit the area regularly and will look to book this place each time.

Simply Elegant
Not sure how much I can add to the already glowing reviews, but I'll try. First -- I found everything the other reviewers said to be true. What impressed me the most is the quality of the items the owners used -- from dishes to towels, linens and outer bed coverings and even to the decorative objects found throughout the home. The pictures of the home on vrbo.com are beautiful, but still I was nervous that, upon arrival, I might find the home to have defects that might not be obvious in the photos. That wasn't the case. It is immaculately kept. I loved the added touches of having full-length mirrors in each bedroom and power strips near outlets so you are able to plug in your electronic devices with no problems. I would definitely stay there again if we make another trip to Delray Beach. The owners supplied beach passes so you don't need to carry chairs/umbrellas to the beach. There is a service on the beach that supplies comfortable lounge chairs, a side table and an umbrella. Also love that there is an iron and ironing board as well as a hair dryer so there is no need to bring them from home. The owners, Garland and Joy, are very personable and look forward to taking care of anything that you need.

Absolutely wonderful and an amazing location!
This villa took my breath away!
From the moment my husband and I arrived to the moment we departed.
There is not a single thing that the Owner's did not think of here.
This villa is exquisitely decorated and is a real gem!
We stayed for an extended amount of time from August through October while relocating to the state and what better place to have lived in, with our four-legged companions, than this perfectly located villa!?!?!
I cannot say enough good things about our experience.
The Owner's were a delight and were always available to accommodate us no matter the time, but truthfully, there wasn't much we needed because everything was already perfectly setup and thought of.
I mentioned we have four-legged doggies... and that we stayed for an extended time. I want to point out that if you are bringing your "kids" then there is a great Dog Park located right up the road (less than 2 miles..Lake Ida Dog Park) which was a total luxury to have access to for our dogs to run around and enjoy socializing with their like-minded furry friends.
I would absolutely recommend this unit and the other unit to anyone looking for a central, beautiful, accommodating, relaxing, luxurious stay or getaway.
Thank you, again, for being so eager to make our stay perfect and being so hospitable!!!
10 GOLD STARS !

Elegant and Intimate
Our stay here at the villa was extremely comfortable and memorable! The villa is located in a cozy, quiet neighborhood and within minutes to the beach or downtown. Inside, this home is well appointed, appealing and made us feel like we were home. Outside, the beautiful surroundings included a saltwater pool, an outdoor living space and lush tropical greenery giving us the feeling of vacationing in a secluded, private resort. The villa’s owner was wonderful to work with and we enjoyed our stay here at the home and in Delray Beach!

オーナー : Joy Howell
We have been vacationing in Delray Beach for five years and found it to be so different from all the other Florida towns. We wanted to invest more of our personal time here so purchasing the villas seemed like the perfect vantage point from which to get to know the community even better. We have our own businesses and that makes it easier to work from Delray or Washington, D.C. as needed. Each villa is equipped with high-speed Internet access to enable our guests to do the same. We have owned beach homes since 2005 and our philosophy is to furnish them the way we would furnish our personal home and to have guests enjoy them the way that we do. We have found that guests appreciate the feeling of being at a cosmopolitan beach home, relaxed and yet elegant with attention to detail. We vacation in Martha's Vineyard every year, so when we chose this home we created an environment where people who are used to those vacations could relax and enjoy the same elegant, relaxed style in sunny Florida.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
This intimate and private Villa is unique in that it offers luxurious living in a relaxed yet elegant beach home located in the award-winning Delray Beach, 'Village by the Sea.' There are numerous condos and homes around to choose from for your vacation, but Villa Athena and her sister villa offer a high quality, luxurious, private beach vacation experience within walking distance to the Avenue. When you want a private yet intimate vacation with your family or loved ones, try out Villa Athena in the Village by the Sea.
この宿泊施設の特徴
How many ways can you say Private-Private-Private? In a crowded, fast-paced world, we luxuriate in the simple things like privacy, quiet, beautiful surroundings, raindrops on the roof, lush tropical greenery and colorful bougainvillea. We like a touch of South Beach here and there with the comfort and class of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. We want to take a midnight swim under the moonlight if the spirit moves us. We want a place large enough to have guests but not so large that the feeling of intimacy is lost. We want the advantages of a resort but we want exclusivity. Villa Athena and its sister captured our passion and engaged our minds, inspiring us to create a memorable vacation for discriminating travelers. We hope you agree.
