Beautiful grounds, old, damp and moldy room that r
The Sundy is well known for its excellent cuisine and for its exquisite grounds. Beautiful table settings for the outdoor restaurant and lovely Koi-stocked ponds are connected by a series of stone paths. However, staying at the Sundy is a different experience. The first floor room where I stayed was large and had at lovely decor, but the room was dark and suffered from black mold on the ceilings and in the bathroom shower stall, as well as the large armoire enclosing the small TV stank of mold. The shower door grab handle literally came apart upon contact, and the linens were damp with humidity. The staff are not available before 4 pm, and even then they admitted they do not answer the phone, even though I needed to get dry bed sheets. First night I had to sleep fully clothed! Finally, no continental cuisine was available after 9 am. While I do not know the condition of the other rooms, and these issues can be rectified by knowing how to handle the staff and knowing what to expect, no stay should have to be this difficult, and the existence of mold in any B & B or hotel is unacceptable and dangerous, even in humid southern Florida.

The property is beautiful...The rooms were run down and dirty...The TV did not work...When I told them about it...They never sent someone to fix it...It is a beautiful property...Just a shame that they do not take care of the rooms.

The property has historic charm, but is poorly run. Front desk staff unknowledgeable, light in bedroom not working, safe not working, missing bathroom toiletries upon checkin. Not very clean, and a large cockroach in our room one night. This place has potential, as it’s charming and well located. But management needs to get it together.

Needs TLC. Beautiful gardens.
Small wedding under 50 people. Grounds beautiful. Wedding went off without a hitch and food was great BUT room was dusty, floors were dirty and there were only 2 employees on arrival to help with luggage, ice, water etc. I had to mop floor with bath towel so wedding dress didn't get dirty!! No valet either. I checked in at 345 which was a little early but needed to help bride and attendants get ready for 5:00 wedding. Also think they should warn guests about uneven rock walks and no walkways suitable for high heels!! Someone fell almost broke an ankle.

I booked this stay - I even called and mentioned I would be late and when I arrived the entire place was DARK no one on premise except there were vagrants - this scared me half to death! I still have not heard from Sunday House - but I have reported this experience to the police

Great Location Beautiful Groends!
The property is beautiful. Taking the challenges of COVID into consideration there definitely were issues, not sure how many apply to that but here goes. Super Bowl Sunday night we discovered our TV remote battery was dead. No staff around. 2 out of 3 mornings no Breakfast or even coffee available as promised. Issues paying what was due at check in. Manager was to contact us next am and never heard anything during our stay. Location was wonderful.

Charming, but rough around the edges!
The accommodations were spacious and charming. The biggest complaint would be that the bathroom tiles and grout around the bathtub were in desperate need of cleaning. Cleaning under the bed was also ignored. There is no one on staff during the day and no desk to call. Prior to arrival, I left two telephone messages, an email, and a message on the website re an early check-in. No one responded.

Must be adventurous
If you desire the orderliness of the hotel chains And you require conformity in rooms and front desk assistance this hotel is probably not for you Sunday House is an 11 room BnB style hotel The rooms have their own personality The hotel property is a tropical paradise in the middle of DelrayBeach The rooms are quirky but comfortable Our shower was not great but the balcony overlooking the flora and fauna was awesome The pool was not operational and I am not sure if they have fixed it in a long time Overall staying at the Sunday House is an adventure One last thing their happy hour is not to be missed good appetizers and great drink specials

When we arrived 8 PM, the property was closed. No one answered the phone or the door; there was simply no way to check in! We had not received any deadlines for when to arrive and had looked forward to a special night there. But we had to leave and don’t intend to ever take that risk again.

We frequently visit the Delray Area and had always wanted to stay at the Sundy House. The whole place has an odd almost eerie feel to it. The staff is very rude and we felt uncomfortable, after interaction with front desk during stay. When you open door to room you are hit with a very strong moldy smell. You can actually see mold on bathroom vent and walls. The floor under bed was dusty, lightbulbs out in bathroom, problem with tv and internet but when you call about issue there is absolutely no one there. Violation code about plumbing taped to front door. Property grounds are beautiful but overgrown, restaurant pleasant, close to Ave.

There were no staff to assist. I don't think its just covid either. I think there is no management, and they must have money problems to let these cottages go. There were 3 other guests i met, all very dissapointed with the cottages. There qas water all over the floor and it took 2 days and multiple complaints to get the refrigerator fixed. The floors were sticky, the electric outlet in the bathroom didn't work, the entire toilet was loose and coming apart. It could be such a great place. But i don't think i can go back again.

This is my favorite place to stay in Delray Beach. The rooms are all decorated differently with very nice furnishings. The grounds are like a botanical garden, very beautiful. The only minus would be the continental breakfast, that leaves a lot to be desired.

So cool!
The walkway to our room was just gorgeous! Super friendly staff and the room was cool. I see reviews that it’s old, etc… and yes it’s actually the oldest house in Delray I read- so you can’t expect perfection. I didn’t go down for the morning breakfast because after reading all reviews- I didn’t want a bagel or cereal. Location is perfect because we walked to dinner that night and it super close to downtown. Definitely a cool experience. You feel like your in a jungle. Loved it!

Beautiful property.Continental breakfast was inadequate. Room was on the second floor walk up which we were not told. When we saw the stairs and asked for a first floor room, we were told none were available, even the hotel appeared to be close to empty.

Great location, old but quaint.
I enjoyed the ambience greatly, but I would have rather just eaten there. The bathroom had a bit of mold on the ceiling and the amenities were limited. The ambience was beautiful though, so it was overall a nice stay.

Tropical oasis in the heart of Delray Beach
Awesome property in the heart of Delray. It is truly a tropical oasis. The room was like an apartment with everything you would need for an extended stay. The decor is very tasteful and fun. The entire place was spotless! You can walk to many bars & restaurants. Definitely a very unique place to stay. Much better than the cookie cutter hotel rooms at the major chains.
