Steps to the Beach and a Stroll to Fort Lauderdale Nightlife

Our house is located on a private cul-de-sac street that is only 50 meters from the Fort Lauderdale Beach. Highway A1A (our cross-street) is the primary, ocean road that runs from Miami north thru Fort Lauderdale to Palm Beach. Fort Lauderdale's primary nightlife and beach-front restaurants are only a 2 kilometer (1+ mile) walk/drive from our street. The famous Galleria Mall with exclusive stores is a 1 mile drive while Sawgrass Mall with hundreds of outlet stores is 30 minutes away. Supermarkets, movie theaters, golf, restaurants, and nightlife are all short drives from our house while Downtown Fort Lauderdale/Las Olas Boulevard is a great venue for art stores, boutiques, nightlife, and high-end restaurants. Boating/fishing excursions, jet skiing, and parasailing are all offered nearby on Fort Lauderdale Beach. The port for the major cruise lines out of Fort Lauderdale is a 10 minute drive while the Fort Lauderdale International Airport is a short 15 minute drive from our house.


Household Amenities: Our house has a few extra amenities for both children and adults. There is a removable safety fence encircling the pool to prevent accidents for small children. A very important safety feature that allows children to play in the backyard without fear they accidentally fall into the pool. We also have a wide array of children's toys, children's books, board games and card games as well as a Playstation for video games.

There is jogging down the beach or biking in the Nature Park located directly behind our street as well as swimming in the Ocean or our pool.

Great vacation home
We rented this listing for a multigenerational family for the month of March. Location is great, right across the street from the beach with many restaurants, supermarkets, cafes nearby. The house was great, plenty of room, kitchen well stocked with cooking utensils, pots and pans, dishes and flatware. Pool area was lovely with comfortable seating and was maintained for us during our stay. Craig is a great host, very quick to respond to any questions or concerns.

Beautiful, spacious, clean. Location is key. One minute walk to sunrise every morning. Gorgeous. Pool was warm although entire pool area was shaded all the time; this house could be improved with a few less trees by the pool although they and the tropical plants were certainly beautiful. Would love to stay again.

Best rental ever
The house was beautiful, clean and had everything you can think of under the sun for your vacation needs. Including tons of kids toys for the house and the beach. It's a very quick walk to the ocean and in a more quieter area. Craig was an amazing host and went above and beyond. We will be back. If you're wondering if you should book this house, do yourself a favor and book it! :) Thanks again, Craig!!!!

Great week!
It’s an old house but very roomy for a family. Great location and nice pool in the back. Backyard is shady which we liked and somewhat buggy at night due to all the beautiful landscaping. Craig the owner was great. Very responsive to any problems and helpful with day activities. The house had beach stuff and lots of games for kids. We loved the beach and it’s only 2 houses away. We would definetly stay again.

House was great
The house and location were great. Craig contacted me before and after we checked in to be sure everything was good and said to contact him with any problems. The only problem we had was upstairs shower backed up and was dirty however since nobody told me about this problem until we were leaving I never contacted Craig about it. We all enjoyed the stay and hope to back again next year.

Fantastic stay. We will be back!
This beach house was perfect for our group and had space for additional people. Less than a 2 minute walk to the beach and we could easily walk to the shops and restaurants if we desired too. The house comfortably slept our group, all amenities came as advertised, and all appliances worked perfectly. The Owner was extremely helpful and available when we had questions and requests. Next time we vacation to the area, we would absolutely stay here again.

Great location minimized by run down home.
This home has a perfect location for Fort Lauderdale - residential area with very short walk to beach and walking distance to stores and restaurants. However, this home needs a lot a work to bring it up to what one would expect when renting a home. The dishwasher was extremely frustrating since the rack was missing a wheel and it constantly fell of the track causing the dishes to crash against each other and keeping bottom water spinner from working. The outside pole lamps didn’t work. The outside furniture was old with no cushions and the outside table would sag if any weight was placed on it. The rest of the family asked to use our shower because theirs didn’t get warm enough. Bugs would appear every morning in our bathroom sink having fallen from the lights above. I have rented 7 homes over the years and the condition of this home was by far the worst.

Quick and effectively be communication with owner.
Dealing and communicating with the owner was a snap and very pleasant. House was in a great area and convenient to what we wanted to do. Having a vehicle made it a lot easier to get around. Not really in an area to walk to dinner but still really like the location, super close to beach. Where we were w bit disappointed was with the mattresses, which were in need of replacement, and bugs. On the bugs, nothing really a problem just more than I want and in the house. Mostly just gnats but in the upstairs bathroom and bedrooms. Property was also a bit dated but I’m sure at one time was super awsome. Great setup for a family vacation and away from the noise of the city. House is in a very quiet cup de sac.
