Just perfect! Highly recommend
What a beautiful home and area to vacation. The home is beautifully appointed, immaculate, every detail so well thought out. There were 6 of us ladies and everyone commented on how much fun they had. There were plenty of beach towels, chairs, pool toys, shampoo, body wash, sunscreen etc. David was such a thoughtful host, so welcoming, and helpful. The beach was a very short walk, pristine, and felt almost private. Thank you again for such a wonderful time.

Family Spring Break
Wonderful house and location - easy walk to the beach and all the comforts and privacy of your own luxury backyard retreat. This house was extremely well appointed and the owner works hard to make sure you enjoy your stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better house to spend a week in Ft Lauderdale.

Amazing trip!
The property is even more beautiful than the pictures and it was more than we could have imagined! The backyard is perfect and we spent 99% of our time out there. We particularly loved the local suggestions from the host. They helped us make the most out of our time there and we hope to return again!

Our Best Florida VRBO Ever!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this absolutely beautiful home. Not only was it immaculately clean, it was so spacious and tasteful decorated with original works of art, that we could not have been more pleased. The kitchen was fully equipped as were the supplies for the beach. The Spa was hotel style, the front and backyard landscaping provided exceptional privacy and was very well maintained.The outdoor seating was comfortable and roomy, just like the family room, enabling us all to spend time together. The homeowner was helpful with dining suggestions and immediately available when we had a question. Finally, the State park at the end of the street had two playgrounds, a restaurant, a park ranger that gave nature talks, and a two mile shaded loop that we enjoyed every day. We highly recommend this property!

Simply the best
We have been traveling to Fort Lauderdale for years, and this is by far the best vacation home we have ever encountered. We think of it as our tropical “home away from home”! We have not always had the best of luck with rental homes, so we knew right away that we had found something special in this one. We have always found the home to be spotless, beautifully furnished and well organized. The landscape is perfectly maintained and the heated pool and spa are incredible, so soothing and completely private! You can tell that this homeowner cares about their guest’s experience. Everything you think would be nice to have on vacation has already been thought of and supplied. The kitchen is well stocked, which is great for us since we love to cook in. The location is perfect for us, so quiet but yet so close to everything. We like to take walks in the morning, so being a block from the entrance to Birch State Park and only 2 blocks from the beach is a huge bonus. There are also several nice restaurants a short walk away, some of them right on the beach. Don’t miss Dune restaurant if you stay here! The have a great happy hour from 4-6 PM. Our stay was wonderful as always. Needless to say, we can’t wait to return! This one is a no-brainer. Thank you for helping us create more incredible memories.

Great place for a family!
Our family of 4 adults had a fantastic week in this beautifully appointed home. The location was perfect for walking to the beach or staying at home and relaxing in the spa. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beach wagons were very useful, and the owner provided helpful suggestions and responded quickly to our questions while we were there. A very enjoyable stay!
