Nine of us stayed at the French Castilla Beach House. We had more than enough space to spread out, and appreciated all of the bathrooms. The pool was just lovely! Our host, Lance, went above and beyond. He was responsive and generous. We all appreciated him. We’re looking forward to a return trip. Watch out, Lance, we’ll be back!

Great Spring Break stay in a great location. Nice neighborhood.
The house has so much room for the 14 of us who stayed. Several cozy gathering rooms to spread out or hang out together. Loved the outside area where you could hang at the pool, on the dock, or take a kayak ride in the canal.
Communication with the owner was easy and they were very helpful with any questions.

Corner plot in a gorgeous neighborhood. Home really suited for bringing together large families - which worked for us since we had teens and 3 children under 7 all coming together - three families.
Check-in was really easy, and owner (Lance) communicated early and often prior to our arrival. Also chatted with him and his wife (Danielle) a few times during their morning walks through the area.
Some favorite things about the home:
1.) Good sized pool and plenty of loungers.
2.) Super family-sized dining table that could seat us all.
3.) Water toys to use in the canals - canoe/paddleboard.
Things that could have been better:
1.) A house was being built on the opposite side of the canal and so for a few hours per day there was a little noise as they banged in pylons. (I imagine that is all complete now.)

The he house was amazing and Lance was great to communicate with the entire time. We had 12 guests total and the house had more than enough room for all of us. It was very spacious and we spent the majority of our time in the pool or on the deck. The location is perfect, minutes from the beach and minutes from downtown. Couldn’t be a better location. It rained pretty heavy for a few hours but the house has a giant cover/tent in the back yard near the pool so we sat out there for a little and stayed completely dry. It was also great to sit under the covering to get some shade during the sunny days too!

My family of 10 stayed at this paradise property. We truly enjoyed the pool, the beach, and the family time together. My son is being deployed the beginning of next year and this trip was very special to us. Thank you to Lance and his brother for the accommodations, and the quick responses when we needed something. We will definitely be back in the future.

The locator was a great proximity to the beach and the house was perfect fit our large group. Lance is one of the best hosts I’ve ever rented from and I travel monthly. Totally recommend this property. Loved having a pool all to ourselves and the dock was lots of fun.

Enjoyed a beautiful February week in the Florida sunshine. House had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our extended family. Pool was wonderful. Kids and adults enjoyed fishing from the dock and were treated to a surprise visit from a manatee. Management was very attentive and responsive to our needs.

This house is in a great location. We had 10 adults and 6 kids under 6. We had plenty of room. Big plus was every bedroom had it's own bathroom. Pool was great and we used the paddle boards and kayak often. Lance was always quick to respond when we needed something. The beach was only about a 10 minute walk (even with kids). About the only complaint was we couldn't get the ice machine in the fridge to work. It was a wonderful vacation!!

Large house with great pool area with easy access to the beach, restaurants, and the main channel. Walk to the beach is about 10 to 12 minutes away along Los Olas Avenue. House is also located just a mile east of the great restaurants on Los Olas. Easy access via car, walking, or the on-site rentable golf cart. Excellent host who met us on arrival. Lance is a great host who is easy to talk to and quick to meet any needs. We had a great time Lance!!

Bachelor’s trip with 10 men and this house offered everything you could want/need. Highly recommend the golf cart rental for getting around. Wonderful stay.

Lance was the BEST. Was so responsive -- answered my questions before and during the stay IMMEDIATELY. The house is exactly as pictured, being so close to downtown Las Olas and the beach was amazing. The beds were surprisingly comfortable, there were instructions everywhere so I felt like everything was covered, and Lance was so accommodating and made sure everything was going well. He sent instructions before and during our stay for everything you could think about. I planned my sister's bachelorette party there with 15 girls (!!) and everyone had a great time. I would highly recommend and I hope to be back!

Can’t say enough great things about this listing and the owners. Incredible location close to the beach, beautiful house, and great communication with the owner before, during, and after our stay. The property was immaculate. We had 11 people stay comfortably for a long weekend and everyone had a blast. Make sure you rent the golf carts because they are a great way to get around town! Can’t wait to come visit again.

Really cool property with plenty of space for our family of 7 adults and 4 children ages 3 and under. The two “wings” were perfect for creating quiet space for sleeping children while the adults were still up. Heated swimming pool was excellent with fence around for child protection. Location really nice for both the beach and Las Olas Blvd. Did have a few ants on property but not a problem for us. The property manager Leo and the owner were responsive and great to work with. Great vacation. Thanks.

Accommodating and plenty of room
We utilized the property to host a mastermind for my Amazon Private Label sellers community - The Seller Systems Inner Circle. We were able to divide into smaller groups and find plenty of room to work. After work the property had a pool table, grill, and pool as well as other amenities to entertain. The kayaks and paddle boards were a little difficult to launch and I didn’t reserve the golf cart in advance, but the host was a great communicator. Overall the property met our needs and my guests were happy.

We rented this property for a bachelorette weekend and it was THE BEST stay! The location is perfect - decent walk but easy Uber to everywhere. The view of the canal was lovely. The pool was perfect, we spent the whole weekend in there! I'm pretty sure it's natural salt water so no chlorine to mess with your hair for the weekend fellow bachelorette parties! The property managers were accommodating and so responsive. Highly recommend staying at this property if you're looking for a Fort Lauderdale getaway!

We had a bachelorette party of 13 women and everyone enjoyed their stay. Leo, the property manager, accommodated an early check in which was so helpful since we were having groceries delivered. Walking distance/short uber to everything - we LIVED in the pool. Great hangout space, but also areas to get away to get some sleep. I loved the fact that the house didn't carry noise, so early risers could congregate in the kitchen, or living room and people upstairs still slept. It had everything you could possibly need - so fun and would definitely stay again!

We had a group of 14 stay for a bachelor party and the stay at Seven Isles was a great time! The house was in great shape, had plenty of space, and had everything we needed for the weekend. The amenities were amazing. It was the perfect location for a quick walk to the beach or the several bars and restaurants in Las Olas and the pool sitting right on the canal couldn't be beat!
Leo was an excellent host! He greeted us when we checked in, gave us a quick tour of the property, insight on local restaurants, and where to get the essentials which was incredibly helpful. He was in contact with us from the evening before check-in up through check-out and was always available throughout the weekend to answer any questions we had.
Whether you're considering a group trip and want to enjoy the best Las Olas has to offer or need plenty of space for a family vacation I would highly recommend the stay!
