Another Great Stay

Headed back to Lauderdale to visit my mom with my daughter. We picked this property because we have previously had an excellent experience. This stay did not prove wrong. I will add a recommended restaurant, Milk Money, which is about 5 minutes away. Been there several times each stay. Fantastic food and service! FYI. There are some friendly and beautiful birds around

Comfortable Bungalow

We had a very good time at this property. While it is not close to the ocean, it is very conveniently located and was less expensive than ocean property. Very centrally located with nearby stores and restaurants. Comfortable furniture and beds. Great backyard deck with nice speaker system and a new grill. The property host, Alex, was tremendous. We had a couple of repair issues early on and he addressed them very quickly. His maintenance team is tremendous. My wife and I would recommend it to others.. The neighborhood peacocks were a surprise bonus.

Lovely property with a beautiful backyard

We loved our stay here. We were not too sure of the neighbourhood as we drove in but one we arrived we were so thrilled with this beautiful place. When we contacted the manager regarding how to access to the Sonos speakers they responded quickly. The kitchen had everything we needed including coffee for the 3 days we were there. We loved our visits from the neighbourhood peacocks, and even got to see one of the males No strutting by. A few things to note: we were in the second bedroom and every morning at 6 AM or somewhere after that, there was a high-pitched squeaking noise which we think was coming from the sprinkler system which lasted for 30 minutes Pretty good or more. If you want it So for 3 mornings in a row we were up by 6:30 due to this noise. Our friends in the other room did not hear it. The other small issue was that when we arrived there were 4 to 5 of those plug-in air fresheners going, and it was an overwhelming perfume smell when we walked in. This was quickly taken care of by unplugging all of them. These are small things in an overall great stay at a beautiful property.

Great Stay for a Couple Weeks

This property is was clean and well-stocked with the comforts of a home-away-from-home. Mornings in the backyard with coffee were great and evenings grilling dinner were fun. Would recommend this stay to other small groups who are looking to spend a week or two at a house with just about everything. Thanks for making it a great stay!
