DELRAY BEACH
Fabulous Delray Beach and it's famous Atlantic Avenue is set in a quaint 'village by the sea'. Reminiscent of old Florida where the beaches don't have any buildings on them and the beautiful sea turtles com
e to nest their eggs. A two-time, All American City winner, Delray Beach is known for its' many art festivals, crazy and fun St. Patrick's Day Parade, eclectic and amusing store fronts, mom and pop gourmet and foodie fare, live music at several venues like Bostons on the beach, our cultural affairs, and our pristine beaches. It's a haven for the artsy type, the savior fare and the sun worshipers. It's mystic, soothing, exciting, easy going and yet very chic all at the same time. This town is just a 10 minute car ride away and is simply one of Florida's best spots to visit. Check out what is happening on the Avenue, off the Avenue and in Delray's art district, Pineapple Grove.
PALM BEACH ISLAND
"The island" as its known and not to be confused with the city of West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Island is Florida's best kept secret. It's secret because its residents and visitors want it that way. Palm Beach Island has a concentrated amount of the world's top 10% of monied individuals. We are talking the likes of past and present residents, Marjorie Merriweather Post of Post Cereal Corporation, builder Donald Trump, singers Rod Stewart, Jimmy Buffet and John Lennon, writer James Patterson, clothing designer, Vera Wang, bankers Smith Barney, John Kluge of Metromedia, radio show host Rush Limbaugh, the Kennedy family, Chairman of Revlon Ronald Perleman just to name a few. In the height of the season, all of Hampton is in Palm Beach where social gatherings, charity balls and the who's who come together with plastic looking faces and the age difference between a man and his mistress are easily 40 years apart. Think I'm exaggerating? Check it out for yourself!
The richest of the rich get things done their way. They own their police department is such away as the residents dictate the law. This is not the place to drive your beaten down VW, it will most definitely be towed off the island in a matter of minutes. It is a place to bike ride leisurely as the island is extremely beautiful and is reminiscent of the island of Capri in its architecture, with beautiful flowers cascading across entry ways, adorning walled property lines. A town only a few blocks wide is perfectly manicured at every angle your visions perceives. Worth Avenue is the very well known street lined with designer shops who's sister street is Rodeo drive in Beverly Hills. And there are even wonderful second hand consignment shops if you are interested in wearing something a celebrity once wore. There is a fabulous little authentic french bakery, a Publix grocery store that has valet parking and the infamous Breakers Hotel. If you visit the island, it's imperative that you tour the Hotel. Built to mimic European splendor, its over the top, mostly gaudy, ornamental, but yet simply fascinating to walk through. And the most important highlight is having a cocktail at the Seafood Bar located on the main floor which boast panoramic ocean views and a bar that is literally a fish aquarium and then finish your evening at Taboo ordering their super delicious and highest priced burger!
Thank-you for checking out my listing. I look forward to your stay!
