“How wonderful!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 15, 2010

Our trip was fast and furious, but when we arrived "late" Colin made us feel right at home and took very good care of us. We enjoyed an afternoon of leisure and were told cocktails were at 6. What a wonderful evening... we chatted with Colin and Raleigh and thoroughly enjoyed being with them. We hadn't found a place for dinner and Colin suggested we head over to Cafe Centro where the dinner was fabulous. We awoke the next day to a fantastic breakfast poolside and met other guests who appeared to be just as relaxed. Our stay was worth coming back for more and will definitely try their Highlands House in NC next time we are in the area. Thank you Colin and Raleigh.

“One of our favorite B & Bs.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 22, 2010

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful B and B. Our hosts, Colin and Raleigh, were gracious, informative, and helpful. We stayed in the "Red Room" with a lovely little porch and a wonderful bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and seperate shower. Remember to close the window on the Courtyard side or you will hear the sound of the splashing fountain during the evening along with the train whistles. We closed the window on our second night, and everything was fine. The breakfasts were very tasty and freshly prepared: Eggs Benedict one day and cranberry pancakes the next. Colin and Raleigh host a nightly cocktail gathering and it was a great time to meet our fellow travelers and compare notes. The Hibiscus House is in a historic area of West Palm and is within walking distance of some great restaurants. Be sure to visit Henry Flagler's home in Palm Beach. It is amazing. If you go to the Breakers for a drink or a meal, you will have to pay $20 for parking. However, other guests informed us you can apply that fee towards your bill. Not a bad deal. We did not have sufficient time to get to the Breakers, but hope to do so on our next visit.

“We highly recommend Hibiscus House!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2010

Hibiscus House B&B was great. Our hosts, Colin and Raleigh, were very welcoming and hugely helpful and accommodating. Raleigh's breakfast creations were delicious. It was nice interacting with other guests during the nightly cocktails served at 6 p.m. included in the price of our room. Our room was large, warm and inviting. We highly recommend Hibiscus House!

“Elegant, Clean, and Friendly B & B in West Palm Beach!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 15, 2009

We had a wonderful stay at Hibiscus House, as we always do, as we have visited many times over the years. It has become our favorite winter getaway.

Each room is beautifully decorated, as is the rest of the B&B, the tropical grounds and there is a lovely pool.

The hosts are very thoughtful, accommodating, and always us feel welcome. We have stayed in many B&B's over the years, but this one is really in a class by itself.

Delicious gourmet breakfasts and fun cocktail hours also make Hibiscus House a great place to stay when visiting West Palm Beach.

“Nice Place But....”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2009

When we arrived we found out the owners were on an extended vacation. The innkeeper, Jean, was very nice and made us feel at home. We were disappointed the cocktail hours were not happening as we read some reviews about how nice it was. We did have use of the refrigerator and helped ourselves to some wine.

The breakfasts were very good, Jean did a nice job and a nice variety also. We sat outside on the deck/pool area which was like a jungle. That was the thing we were most disappointed in as it was unkept and could have used a good sweeping/weeding. The pool had all kinds of leaves etc. in it so we did not use it. I'm sure it had seen better days and could have been very nice with a little attention.

We stayed in the burgundy suite which was clean and very comfortable. The location was convenient to everything but you do need a car. We also discovered there are some not so nice neighborhoods very close by. All in all it was a relaxing stay.
