Where to buy postcards in Delray Beach

Hello, visiting for a week and having a very nice time but can’t find a store that sells decent postcards of Delray Beach. CVS ones aren’t good. Any recommendations? Thank you

Best Hotels to do Wedding Block?

I'm having a wedding in Boyton Beach in April next year and I have 4 standard hotels my wedding venue suggest listed below. The Hampton Inn is less than a 10-minute drive to the venue and Fairfield Inn is .75 miles from Atlantic Ave both being relatively inexpensive for that weekend. Courtyard and Hyatt are walkable to Atlantic Ave, being convenient for some guests, but are much pricier.

So my question is, has anyone or anyone you know stayed at any of these hotels? Usually Hyatt is considered nice and Courtyard is by Marriott which is often nice too. This is for a Friday to Sunday stay, so 2 night wedding block.

  • Fairfield Inn & Suites Delray Beach I-95
  • Hampton Inn & Suites Boynton Beach
  • Courtyard Delray Beach
  • Hyatt Place Delray Beach

PSA: Major traffic on A1A by Atlantic dunes park and Linton bridge.

I live literally just over the bridge and it is taking almost 15 minutes to get to my house. I would recommend avoiding if possible.

Available Cleaners & Cleaning Services?

Hi!

My fiance and I (and our black Labrador!) just moved to Delay Beach and are in search of a cleaner/cleaning service. We have tried 2 different cleaning services so far and they both have been very lackluster, missing appointments or hours late, trying to change the price on the spot, etc.

We are looking for a consistent 2x a month cleaning of our 2 bed, 2 bath apartment (1000sq ft). We keep our apartment very neat and are mainly looking for someone to take care of the things we may not have time to do on a daily basis (no laundry, dishes, making the beds or anything like that). Our dog is a shedder so we understand that may drive up the price. We are looking to keep this to around $150 per visit, so $300 for the month if possible.

If you know of someone or a service you’ve used that you enjoyed and are willing to share about your experience, please let us know! Thank you so much!

Looking to rent house in East Delray.

My son and his wife are looking for a house in an area where a pitty is okay. Of coarse they’re looking at listings but perhaps some has an unlisted house available!

New Appliances

I am new to the area and out of state. Looking to purchase new kitchen appliances. Are there any local appliance stores I should be considering vs big box stores? Seems the big stores have a lot of requirements for removal and installation. Thanks

How do you feel about restaurants tacking on a mandatory 20% surcharge to your bill? Management also is keeping a portion of the 20% for themselves. Hampton Social and Pure Vida are the two that have started this deceptive, unfair desertion.

Deception^^^

New around here, Halloween question

Does Atlantic Avenue have a lot of people walking around in costumes during Halloween? This is the last weekend of the month so was wondering if people go out dressed even for dinner or whatever. Thanks

How do locals feel about the rehab in town Caron Renaissance?

I’ve heard of locals protesting against having the residential treatment area where patients live in Delray Beach due to all the chaos.

But, as a former patient at that hell hole— Are locals aware of the abuse going on at Caron Renaissance? Are they actually aware of what is going on behind those doors?

I filed complaints, did not have legal resources like many others and nothing can be done. Patients have committed suicide right on that golf course. Why has nothing been done? I am diagnosed with PTSD from my treatment there. It is a LONG term treatment. Human rights violations taking place everyday.

Locals deserve to know what is going on right in their backyard at that place while the upper management abuses patients all day everyday and destroys lives and families. Please help raise awareness. Social media feels like the only way to do this.

Easement Responsibility

I have a single family home in Delray. The back yard is fully fenced in, and at the rear side of the property, there is an easement (or so I assume) that separates my property from the neighbor. It’s about 5’ to 10’ wide, and entirely overgrown with an assortment of plants, mostly invasive to my knowledge. It’s fenced in (my backyard fencing blocks the view of it), but the plants are sprawling over the top and through the seams of my fence. There’s nothing in this plot of land, and no one has private access to it. There’s a telephone line and some wires, but otherwise just super overgrown.

So I have a few questions: Is it the city’s responsibility to tend to this land? Will they remove the plants if I bring it to their attention? Anyone know who the right person to contact is?

Beach Volleyball

I'm semi-new to the area and looking for a group or league to play beach volleyball with. I don't care whether its competitive or casual, but I am amazed how difficult it is to find anything online in a beach town. Till now the only thing I've come across is the Boynton YMCA league that doesn't check the "beach" box. Ideally id like to play with others in their 20s to make some friends my age but that's not a dealbreaker for me, Id also be willing to drive 20-30 minutes.

Any recommendations would be appreciated!

PS if anyone's looking for a free agent I'm no volleyball guru but pretty athletic and love to compete.

Good Arab/Turkish Barbershop in Delray or Boca

Good Friday community, it's that time of the month again and is time to groom. Does anyone know of any good Arab/Turkish barbershops in Delray Beach or Boca? I usually just get a fade, I just moved here from New Jersey, and my barber over there used to charge me $25 for a fade cut. I am a male, and I live in Delray. Any input is valuable. Thank you, and enjoy your weekend y'all.

Hotel recommendations

Hey everyone. I'll be flying into FLL on the 13th for some clinic work at some hospitals got a quick surgery rotation. What are some nice, cool hotels around the Delray area? Or just a bit south? I want to visit haulover beach whike there and would like to be within 45min or so to the beach but as close to Delray as possible. What are some good hotel recommendations for a mid 30s male? Thanks!
