Amazing & Beautiful Property & The Hosts were even better
I recently attended the Eras Tour in Miami and rented a property for my sister and friends. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate us. They provided a link for transportation options to the stadium and even offered to drive us if we encountered any issues getting there.

My husband, children, & I stay at the house & loved it! Everything was at the house you would need. The kids enjoyed the pool and all the creatures we found (iguanas and lizards lol.) Jim was super welcoming and informative when we arrived and we felt right at home. 10/10 would recommend and come back!

Perfect stay for me and my two kids
James was so responsive and the property was impeccably clean and great to crash at the end of a boisterous day with my kids. I cannot think of a single issue we had with the house the entire time we were there, and my kids were thrilled from the first moment we arrived. Full size washer and dryer were an extra plus for us since it was hot out, and the kids were swimming every day, so we did quite a bit of laundry while we were there. We will definitely be staying again!

Great tropical backyard oasis!!
This house is welcoming and very clean, with like new living room furniture. Backyard is very well cared for, with a pool, hot tub, bar, TV, and music make it very relaxing. We had an awesome time and would go back there if we are in Fort Lauderdale again. Owners are on site in their own duplex which is nice in case you need anything! Kids (ages 11 and 12) said it was a 10 plus plus plus vacation!! It was nice they left a bowl of snacks, bottled water, bag of ice and coffee which Is so helpful after traveling all day. The only change that would be nice is a king bed in one of the bedrooms. That’s a personal choice.

Lauderdale Home Away From Home
The home was clean, well equipped and located in safe environment. We arrived and were immediately impressed with the interior. Once we walked the exterior of the property, we were even more impressed. The pool, deck and bar area were used every day of our stay. The landscaping and lawn care was second to none. It really felt like getaway to the tropics. Definitely one of our favorite vacations thus far!

Great Property with Comfy Beds!
My trip to Florida was to visit my daughter who attends Nova Southeastern University. We did not spend as much time at the house as we thought we would just due to our schedule. The location was great and the beds were very comfortable. We visited in December and I loved that the house had holiday decorations up both inside and out! The furnishings were very nice and the little touches like a snack basket, bottled water in the refrigerator and even travel size toothpaste and mouthwash if we had forgotten ours. The home was in a convenient area and we felt safe in the neighborhood (I only mention that because my daughter said some neighborhoods in Davie are not great). Unfortunately, we did not use the pool or hot tub only due to our busy schedule. However, we did venture into the backyard the first night just to check it out and it looked really nice. We would definitely stay here again.

beautiful and relaxing
The property was fabulous. The location suited our needs and we were very close to almost everything we needed. The apartment was very clean and well kept. The backyard was beautiful and relaxing. The property managers were very kind, thoughtful and had great attention to detail. The only complaint I had was the marketing. I assumed we were in a house by ourselves. It wasn't until later that I realized it was actually a duplex/apartment arrangement and the owners live onsite. Because we were using it for a wedding headquarters and we were the parents of the bride and so many people were in from out of state (including us) my preference would have been a home to ourselves because of the hustle and bustle of many people. It turned out not to be an issue as the owners are fantastic. We would definitely re-book here and had that conversation on our way to to airport.
