Beautiful Topical Garden
We will be back. My husband and I had a wonderful stay. Everything we needed and 4 blocks from where my husband's mom is staying. Half a block from a neighborhood park. The side garden outside our door was fabulously tropical with orchids, stag horn ferns engulfing a tree, and many beautiful blooming flowers I'd never seen before. Perry was so welcoming. The bed was comfy. There was coffee for breakfast.

Luxury Hotel Quality
We were amazed from the moment we entered the gate! The landscape of the garden, the detail and cleanliness of the unit, the safety of the neighborhood was well worth the price! We would definitely stay here again, as it was very convenient to get to many attractions. Thanks for the great hospitality!
I had work to do online but was not able to access the info for the wifi because the renter did not include the wifi name just the pass code. I tried many to no avail. I texted him, messaged him, and two hours later still had no response. So I had to knock on his door to get it. Otherwise, he seemed pleasant enough but also like I was inconveniencing him to be there.

Home away from Home
It was like staying at home. The minute I walked in through the gate I felt comfortable. The bed was super comfy, everything was very clean. The furniture was comfortable and enough. Perry and James are a delight to deal with and that garden, what a blessing to enjoy. Made my stay even better. I will stay here again, no need to look any further. Oh, and communication with Perry & James was excellent. Thank you so much for your hospitality.
Liked everything…
The property hosts were very gracious and helpful. The room was super clean and functional. Loved the grounds - like a little paradise ☀️ Would visit again!

Awesome mediation garden.
This property is very well located 11 mile north of FTL airport and 3 miles west of beach, in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. A very nice, quiet room that I seldom was in except for sleep as I had much to do while in Ft Lauderdale. Didn't see anyone else on property except for on occasion the owners, which was exactly my needs. Serene, beautiful garden which i meditated in daily surrounded by flowers, trees, occasional birds and lizards. Wonderful stay and will do again in future visit.
Location is convenient to everything in the area. The space has everything we needed and reminds us of when we lived in our first apartment together. Jim & Perry are awesome human beings and hosts. Home away from home💕

Beautiful home
You can tell Perry and Jeff take pride in their home. Beautiful garden and so friendly! We also appreciated the extra security with a locked gate. If we ever go back we will definitely stay there again!
We spent 3 nights at this property. It was amazing. Perry and James are the nicest couple and they live on the property. They really take pride in where they live. Their garden is gorgeous. It truly was a tropical paradise. We felt safe and slept like babies on that amazing bed. 5 Gold stars. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend.
