Exactly what I was looking for laid-back comfortable with all the modern amenities and so close to all the fun activities. And yes, when I do return to this area, I will be staying here again.
10.0 / 10.0
Important to get in writing host's visitor policy re ages and dates of stay. Also, host requires photo of each visiting car license plates. Cameras on property.

A beautiful property! Fully furnished. A short walk to the beach. We spent seven days here. We would recommend this location to others. Dave
10.0 / 10.0
A short get away to relax, plenty to do in the area (restaurants, bars, site seeing) BUT in general we took time off to relax on the beach, jog, walk and see the Houston Astros Spring Training. The facility was very clean, we bought groceries and stayed in - relaxing area - with Lawn/beach chairs outside, sitting and BBQ area. No matter your choice - the place was perfect to relax or go out, the options are available. See you next year!
10.0 / 10.0
We had a wonderful stay. The unit is modern, clean and has all amenities. The misleading part is that the VRBO listing shows part of a building with a porch right on the beach. That was not the case. But it was only a block from the beach in a lovely area and just a short drive to more restaurants. We weren’t interested in night life. I would definitely recommend this property.
10.0 / 10.0
Place was actually better than the photos. Quite clean. Was really convenient to have 3 full bathrooms for our family. Lot of great beach stuff for us to use, with the beach conveniently within walking distance. Nice sitting/lounging areas outside (there was even a wild iguana roaming outside which was a funny surprise, added to the tropical vibe). Convenient outside shower for any remaining sand on us from our beach trips. TVs in every room. Dishwasher and laundry machines were small which made sense considering the size and purpose of the rental. But the microwave could be bigger, couldn't fit a dinner plate.
Overall a really great stay though, very happy with our accommodation, especially our kind and gracious host Dr.K, who regularly checked in with us over the phone despite being sick. Thank you!
10.0 / 10.0
We were in town for a business and pleasure trip to the boat show. The location was perfect. A block from North Beach and less than a mile to the nearest water taxi.
In addition, there is a rack for the local app operated bicycle rental and we really rented bikes to take to the show.
It's also walking distance to several restaurants and a 7-11, and about a mile from the Dunkins and grocery store.
The home was very clean and quiet with almost no traffic on the side street.
Also the Host is very informative.
10.0 / 10.0
Very clean, extremely close to the beach (2-3m walk), very comfortable place to just relax. Very quiet area.
Bars and restaurants are close....many close enough to walk.
Kitchen is great with everything needed for morning coffee, cooking breakfast, hanging out and having a snack after a day at the beach, or a full meal.
If you enjoy time at the beach, this is as good as it gets.
Thanks for everything!

Very clean, lovely, well-stocked property in a great location near the beach. You’ll have everything you need to feel like you’re right at home. Host was very communicative and helpful, and we had a very comfortable stay. Highly recommended!

This is a great place to stay if you want easy access to the beach and also more space for your family.
10.0 / 10.0
Home was clean with a well stock kitchen even though we did not cook. Home eas just the right size for 2. I think 4 would be a bit tight for searing space even though home has 3 baths. A few nice restaurants in walking distance. Downtown was a short drive or uber. The beach chairs and beach towels were a nice touch. All in all a nice home.
10.0 / 10.0
Very comfortable, clean, well stocked and great proximity to the beach. Loved the beach paraphernalia they had for us to use - coolers, wagon, towels, boogie boards, sand toys.
4.0 / 10.0
We were impressed with the updated apartment. We were happy with the three bathrooms. The beds were comfortable, and closet space was ample. Being beach goers, the listing said 150 steps to the beach, we feel it should state being a block away. Another helpful hint for future renters, the square footage should be listed. Overall, it’s a nicely decorated apartment, and in a quiet neighborhood…
10.0 / 10.0
This is a great unit and we got exactly what we were expecting. A super close walk to the beach. The beach is on the other side of a somewhat busy road, but there is a crosswalk and it is not hard to get there.
The unit is well-stocked and easy to stay in. There were even boogie boards for my kids, which was great.
It is important to pay attention to the house rules before you book the unit. The owner has some specific rules about insurance that are not enforced by the VRBO website, which caused a bit of hassle with my booking. But ultimately it all worked out fine.

Great location! This property has everything you need for a family beach vacation. And Dr K is wonderful.
10.0 / 10.0
We checked in at 10pm on a week night, had challenges with door codes, but Dr. K was right there on the phone to talk us through it. Offered tips and suggestions for restaurants and activities. Had a small toilet flow issue at the beginning and she dispatched a plumber the same day. Location was super convenient to the beach; property was spotless; high end fixtures; and quiet neighborhood that supported my daily work. Thank you, Dr. K, for a great stay!
10.0 / 10.0
Dr. K is a wonderful host. She is very helpful and has lots of good information about nearby restaurants. Property was extremely clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. Location is extremely convenient and walking distance from the ocean. Thank you Dr. K

We had a great visit and this property was as advertised! It was clean and well maintained. The property is 1 block from the A1A and a short, easy walk to the beach. The host was great - very nice and offered suggestions for what to do in the area. We will definitely be back!
5.0 / 10.0
My two kids and I had a fun time during our five day stay. It had everything we needed to enjoy the beach (yay rolling cart! chairs! towels! boogey boards!) and Fort Lauderdale.
The duplex is in a quiet neighborhood yet the walk to the beach is only about a block. The crosswalk was easy to find and safe enough that I let my younger teen go back and forth to the duplex by themselves without a problem.
The open kitchen/living room is compact, functional and very clean. It took about 30 seconds on google and I figured out how to turn on the cooktop to heat water for tea.
Because of the great weather we were able to enjoy the outdoor living areas of the duplex every day. I especially appreciated the privacy fence and lounge chairs! My older teen loved lounging in the sun on the outdoor couch in back.
We all enjoyed eating breakfast outside at the umbrella table.
The bedrooms were stocked with extra pillows and the beds were comfy enough. At 6 feet tall (and plenty old enough to qualify for aarp :) - I had no problem getting in and out of the "slightly lower than usual" master bed. The bathrooms are compact, clean and stocked with extra towels - enough even for my kids (hahaha). The third bathroom was super helpful when trying to get us all out of house.
Dr. K was responsive, thoughtful and helpful with suggestions. We appreciate her opening her home to us and would be happy to stay there again!

Nice updated house with everything we needed. Our host was always available. Great location, close to the beach and everything we needed.
2.0 / 10.0
The location of the property was excellent. Just a short walk from the beach. However not suggested for seniors as crossing a four lane busy street with minimal cross walks is tricky at times. The property itself although very clean was tiny. An upgrade on the bed in the master bedroom is suggested as it is very very low to the floor making it difficult to get in and out of bed. The bathrooms were so tiny it necessitated stepping aside to shut the doors. Also the appliances were lacking as far as size (mini dishwasher, washer and dryer) and difficult to use (stovetop). Also one entire wall is basically a locked storage unit for labeled supplies. All in all this unit was built on the cheap and overpriced. In this case, location was not everything… it was the only thing.

I spent two weeks at Dr. K’s home. From
the onset Dr. K was so helpful. We had everything we needed. The walk to the beach was great! We were able to walk to pretty much everything. We really appreciated the beach chairs, coolers, and beach towels. We enjoyed the outdoor space. The neighborhood was peaceful. Dr K. does a great job of making sure you are comfortable and her guests are all considerate which is very important in a duplex. We would definitely stay with Dr. K. again.

The location is exactly as presented. Close to the beach, necessities, casual to upscale dining, and all kinds of shopping and recreation. The area is just off the beach highway, tucked into a quiet neighborhood. Dr. Kushner was so helpful with recommendations for meals and things to do and checked in a couple of times just to ensure we were happy with our stay. The interior is clean and beautiful and exactly as presented in the photos. Highly recommend and would stay again!

This house was very nice, we enjoyed our stay. It was quiet, had modern decor, and was exceptionally clean. It was close to the beach. There were chairs, towels, coolers, beach toys, and even a wagon to haul the beach stuff with. We sure appreciated that! Dr. kept in touch and had great suggestions for places to eat.

We had a fabulous weekend at Dr. Martha's. The place was meticulous and had everything we needed including beach chairs and a beach cart. It was great to have the three bathrooms since there were five of us. The grounds are very well kept and the beach is a super short walk!!! Thank you for a wonderful weekend.

I very much enjoyed me stay at Dr Ks property. It had everything I needed and a few extras. Even a front and back patio were provided. The east unit was clean and neat. It was a short walk to the beach. And Dr K was around to answer any and all questions. I highly recommend the property

Dr K has thought of everything to make a vacation stay delightful. The property is exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything you need from the kitchen to beach toys, cooler and chairs. She is also very willing to share her knowledge of the local restaurants and activities, if you’re not familiar with the Ft Lauderdale area. The location is very convenient and just a short walk to the beach. Also, Dr. K was very communicative throughout our stay and treats you like you are truly a guest in her home.
Thank you for having us!!

The property provided everything we needed for our 5-night stay. The kitchen was well-appointed and up-to-date. Having the washer and dryer was handy for laundering swimsuits and towels from twice daily visits to an uncrowded section of the beach that was just around the corner and across A1A from the property. We felt very secure with a coded lock on both the gate and the door to the condo. Much thanks to Dr. K for her help when our flight was delayed and her continued follow-up with us. She is very knowledgeable about the area and will provide recommendations on things to do and where to eat. It was an enjoyable week in a clean and modern property.

Very close to the beach and very nicely equipped for beach activities. The house was very clean and bright, equipped with new appliances, 3 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms, a nice living room, backyard, and a parking lot in a very safe and clean neighborhood. There were also very many good restaurants close by. Dr. K was very supportive in giving us recommendations on restaurants, supermarkets, and activities.

The host from the start was thorough and even scheduled a phone call to orient us to the place. Besides looking absolutely gorgeous, she also equipped us with EVERYTHING one needs to enjoy the beach. The state of the art appliances worked beautifully, and she even thought to put guidebooks and recommendations for dining out. I cannot say enough good things about this location and owner.
5.0 / 10.0
Dr. K is an amazing host! She was always available if we needed anything. The house was modern and clean (we loved the bathroom sinks!). The best part was that we didn't need to bring beach supplies with us: cooler, chairs, umbrella, beach towels, and toys were all there plus a wagon to transport everything on the small walk to the beach.
