We've used VRBO for several property rentals. This booking went through Opulent Property Management and these folks are first class. Little details add to your check in experience. The house was already set up for us. Lights on, ceiling fans running and music playing. Forgot your toothbrush, no problem. Everything says welcome. The house came as advertised. Very nice home in a quiet neighborhood. Great backyard for kids & pets. Our Golden enjoyed the stay as much as we did. Five stars from us! Jim & Carole

Family trip
We had an amazing stay at this property. The view is absolutely beautiful. We came to visit my brother who just moved to Jacksonville. Had 4 adults and 4 adult kids in the home and a dog. The fenced in yard was wonderful for my dog. If you walk the neighborhood there was a loose dog running around. Overall very enjoyable. House was just as stated and had everything there for you.

Family Vacation
Location was great. Best fishing we have ever had off a dock. House set up for us was good. Had the pool heated, but still a bit cold when the weather is only 70 degrees outside. Need a little bit more detail on the cleaning - behind chairs, etc. All of us did get many small bites on our legs, arms and necks. Be careful when you are outside by the water as you will get attacked! Kelicia was great! She was available and responsive to all our needs.

5 stars all around
We booked this house in particular for a relaxing family vacation where we could all just enjoy each other and do some fishing as well. It did not disappoint! The house was very clean and well stocked with all essentials. The beds were all very comfortable. The fishing was great (in spurts....but that's just fishing) and we all really enjoyed the dock for the fishing, dolphin watching, big cargo boat watching, and the sunsets were spectacular! Communication with the property manager prior to our arrival was above and beyond anything that I have previously experienced thru VRBO and it was very much appreciated! The place was perfect for what we were trying to get out of this vacation and I would highly recommend this house. Thanks so much for sharing your lovely home!

Wonderful Fun and Relaxing Vacation
Our stay was incredible. Perfect combination of fun and relaxation. The house is beautiful and well equipped. The setting is amazing with a great fenced back yard which was perfect for our pups, beautiful pool overlooking the St. John's river. We hung out in the pool watching the sunset and wildlife/Dolphins all from the backyard. You do need a car if you plan on doing excursions. For us, that was not a problem and we enjoyed some activities during the day and were able to come back to this paradise home/setting to relax. We toured St. Augustine, did shopping, boating, ghost tour adventures in Ferdinina, went to Mayport to the beaches and also visited close by parks for hiking and hanging at the beach. There are several parks close to the house or you can take the ferry to Mayport. The hosting family is amazing! They helped us with many different things from places to go to spending time getting to know them. I would call them our friends and hope we cross paths again in the future. We also felt very welcomed in the community. The property manager is also amazing and very attentive making sure your escape from reality is truly perfect. We loved it so much that we hope to go back in the future!

Family vacation
We had such a wonderful time. Everything was perfect. If I had only one complaint it would be that the neighbors require you to be extremely quiet and it made outside time at night tough. One neighbor did come over on our last day and was very kind. Overall it was everything we wanted and needed. Florida Gator baseball was on so we probably cheered too loud. 😂.

Fantastic
Located on the beautiful St Johns River and close to Talbot, Amelia, Fernandina, Jax Beaches and St. Augustine. We enjoyed every minute of our month long stay. Opulent and the owner(Rachel) were great. We fished off our private dock then went swimming in our private pool,. Every room had a TV. The kitchen was well stocked, even had pizza trays. There is an extra freezer and fridge in the garage. Every day we walked our dog around the neighborhood, to be greeted by friendly neighbors. We are gonna give Rachel's Island Retreat 5 stars

House is as pictured. Kitchen is well stocked for a family cooking three meals a day from scratch. It was short some spoons and a couple cake pans but we bought those and left at the home. The neighborhood was very nice. Neighbors were welcoming and friendly, helpful but not overwhelming. It was quiet and felt safe. A car is a necessity and everything is across the bridge and 15 minutes away. It was easy to ride our bikes around the neighborhood without fear of getting run over or feeling like we were imposing on drivers. Minimal traffic with just people coming and going in a residential area. Furniture was comfortable and sufficient for our family of six. Bedding was comfortable. I would like to see a simple hook on the side of the vanity next to the shower in the master bathroom so that a towel could be hung right next to the shower. The host was the most gracious we have ever encountered, pushing the St. Croix host down to second spot. It seemed like both the homeowner and the management company truly cared that we have a nice time so, as example, when we wanted to know where the farmers market was or what beach to go to and so on, the homeowner not only sent us info via text but came to the house and showed us on the map where to go. It was fun watching the dolphins going up and down the river. Seeing all the ships was also interesting and we spent some time with the kids learning how ships are loaded, configured, scheduled and navigated. Very nice home/owner.

Fabulous holiday venue
My family and I stayed at this property for a week in July. We knew from the pictures that it would be lovely but I dont think the pictures do it justice. It was more than ample for the 9 of us space wise but the view was out of this world. We loved the pool, couldn't fault it, the kids had a special time. Amazing deck/shaded outdoor area. Fabulous kitchen, I cooked for our large group several times and had no issues. The neighbourhood is very quiet indeed, a car is very much a necessity. We visited the nearby slave encampment with my 11yr old son which was very profound. I would totally recommend and would stay again.

Wonderful stay/ disrespectful and rude management
we had a wonderful staycation the house is gorgeous, the fishing was great it was so relaxing we added another day. We use VRBO and other agencies for may of our getaways never have we been accuse of breaking a coffee maker, that we never used it was already broken. I am a reasonable person, but we are also people that don't complain much either. we believe in making the best of what we had and enjoying ourselves. The bed in the Master bedroom my and my husband thought it was going to break just from sitting and laying on it, but we dealt with it. when we leave a property we leave it in the best condition we can possible even though we know we pay for house keeper to come in after. Now, I did add a load of white sheets a a lightweight grey spread to the washer before we left no bleach. maybe the sheets did change colors, I don't know, but i can be reasonable I didnt mind paying for them even though another run in the washer with a little bleach would have fixed everything. We left thing this was such a wonderful family getaway and wanted to return. when i got home I received some rude calls and texts from Oupulence Mangement , calling me by my first name with a attitude telling me they are filling a claim against me and and continued down the line of being rude and disrespectful. I tried to call many times to settle the issue they will not pick up my calls. The only thing i get is in a text with threats and saying send a check. Mind you this is for a sheet set and a quilt. I call to let her know I had put insurance on our stay so the items will be covered but I am still being threaten with claims. Oupulence Management is awful, they turned what could have been awesome stay to somewhat of a nightmare.

Nature Paradise
The property was situated on a beautiful water front where we watched dolphins and boats go by daily. The pool was nice once cleaned properly. The house was large and comfortable for all 12 of us. Bathrooms were very nice and clean. Enough towels and linens. Tv room was comfy and channels were plentiful. Location was nice - far enough from city but close enough to drive to many of the areas attractions. Zoo, Cattyshack, Beaches. Jacksonville was a lot more nature than I recalled. Boats and out door activities. Animals lizards, dolphins, manatees, birds of all kinds. Quite lovely to just sit in pool and watch it all. Fun outside restaurant walking distance. Property manager was VERY receptive to all my texts.
