Paradise from the moment you step foot into this beautiful condo with gorgeous ocean views and out onto the double balcony. Morning sunrises, beach breakfasts at Seaside Cafe, and days spent playing in the waves will make great memories. The close proximity to numerous parks, museums, great restaurants, and even a grocery is absolutely wonderful. You won't forget staying here!

Beautiful sunrise
This is one of the cleanest lodgings we have ever stayed in. In addition it is also the most well stocked lodgings ever, especially for a beachside unit. Beach chairs, umbrella, cooler...had it all. We cook and it had all necessary pots, pans, utensils, etc. Also basic spices, coffee filters and coffee! A great place to stay...did I mention it is about 200' from the beach?

CLEAN, Amazing, and Family Friendly! 20/10 rating!
CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN! Villa Sophia is the cleanest condo we ever stayed at in our 20 plus years of vacationing. Villa Sophia has everything you need for a beach vacation- chairs, toys, boogie boards, and even coolers! This was our first time in the Stuart area and we plan to be back soon. The washer/dryer are right across the hall from this unit. The entire property is very clean and well taken care of. Beautiful, quiet view from the large balcony. The owner, Susan, is quick with responding and very welcoming. Very happy with our stay and we had a fabulous vacation! Thank you for sharing your unit with us.

Amazing, beautiful condo!!
This was our 10th visit to Hutchinson Island, and our second time in this condo. It is a wonderful place, and has now moved to the top of our “must stay” locations. The host maintains excellent communication, the condo has everything you need, and it is extremely clean. The balcony views are stunning and the water pressure in the shower is a huge plus. We will be back. This place is AMAZING!!!

Great Vacation!
We enjoyed our stay at Villa Sophia. The condo was just as advertised in the photos. It was clean, up to date, and the view was amazing. The Condo building itself is very nice as well. It felt very private and we enjoyed using the pool. The area offered many dining options up and down the beach and downtown Stuart has plenty of dining options and shops as well. Susan made herself very available, but we never needed to bother her with any issue. We will be back!

Perfect Family Vacation!
We had a fantastic time with our family of four (two young children, ages 4 and 2) for “spring break”. The rental was very clean, nicely furnished and came with all the necessary amenities that you’d need for a beach/pool vacation. The view of the ocean from the balcony was not to be missed! Our favorite part was waking up each morning to watch the sunrise and enjoy a cup of coffee and later breakfast in the glorious balcony sunshine! With small children, having a fully equipped kitchen was key and having easy and close access to both the pool and the beach was ideal! Our kids were endlessly entertained and had the best time splashing around and exploring. We found it fun to try a new restaurant each night for dinner in downtown Stuart which is a short drive away. For those with young kids, the area boasts a great playground too. Susan was very responsive and helpful but never interfered. We felt very comfortable and at home here and look forward to coming back again next year!

We loved this condo due to the view (GORGEOUS), the beach and pool being just a quick walk, the grocery store literally 3 minutes away and tastefully decorated with everything we needed! That porch was heaven in the evenings. We brought our children (13 and 8) who loved the pool and loved having their own individual beds. The owners were super quick to answer our questions and very warm and inviting. We highly recommend this place and I would love to visit again. Wonderful memories made here ❤️
