My brother has offered me a week at his Starwood timeshare in Jensen Beach - Vistana Beach Club. Going to go in May for my annual R&R week with a friend.

Has anyone stayed at this property? Looks nice on the website.

Hoping Jensen Beach is a low key kind of place, without a lot of crowds.

Well, I know diddly swat about FL. But friends of ours (in their '80s) recently bought a place in Jensen Beach. Maybe that's a clue -

So, Grandma, are you saying Jensen Beach is full of 80 year old party animals? (kidding).

Jensen Beach is quiet and beautiful. There are some old Florida restaurants you should try. Conchy Joe's and The Dolphin. The beaches are more natural than further south. Should be a relaxing vacation.

I can honestly say that I have lived in Fl almost my whole life and have never heard of Jensen Beach.

I believe Jensen Beach is on Hutchinson Island.

Grandma

I have friends in both places….Hutchinson Island is near… maybe part of… Ft. Pierce.
Jensen Beach is located between Boca Raton and Vero Beach.

I have lived in Jensen Beach for 5 years. I am happy to read that someone who has lived in FL their whole life has never heard of Jensen Beach....that's what makes it special. It is super quiet here. You will definitely have a relaxing stay. I have never stayed at the Vistana Beach Club but can say that the location is great. You are half-way between Stuart and Fort Pierce, both of which have great little downtown areas. Jensen Beach has a "downtown" but it is very small with only a few restaurants and shops. May is a great time to visit because the high season will be mostly over in April.

Jensen Beach sounds great, but we have decided to do our R&R week in Tucson instead.
