House was ok but not clean.
The house was not clean. The kitchen was not clean.
No key to the house…
They rented the dock the same day we got there and the people stayed on property for one night which was not cool. They also walked though the pool area which was also not cool.
Overall location was good, house was ok at best. But the fact that it wasn’t cleaned properly will make me not want to go back there.

Family Memories
It was a true pleasure spending New Years week with my family at this beautiful Las Olas property. I can’t start to describe how wonderful the location and grounds are. Plenty of room for kids to play outside, swim, kayak, paddle board, etc. The house, pool, and outdoor grilling areas were also all very nice and utilized throughout our stay. Ashley was a pleasure to work with and extremely responsive to any requests or recommendations we asked for. Thanks again!

Must rent
The property was great for our family. The pool was amazing and the house was massive. During our stay Ashley was amazing and provided helpful information. The only problem we had was upon arrival and in the excitement of the tour my daughter ventured onto the private residence of the house attached. A sign on the inside of the fence stated private property however my daughter came in from the outside therefore didn’t see the sign. I'm assuming it was the owner of the home property and she yelled at my door that it was private property and there was a sign posted. This part was true however she was on tbs outside of the fence therefore she didn't see the sign. Due to it being the holiday the owner(Im assuming)left the next day. The property is great I contacted Michael and rented the dock for our stay which allowed family to access the yacht. The dock is new and has water and electricity. The dock wraps around the property and is extremely beautiful. The gym served well for exercise, and the kids were excited to ride bikes through the neighborhood. I would definitely rent this space again however be aware the parking is limited to 3 to 4 cars and secrurity monitors the property constantly. Great House for family and friends. Massive rooms plenty of space for everyone. My family was overjoyed with the amenities and the home. Thanks Ashley for everything.

Perfect place for a family getaway
We had a fantastic time renting this beautiful home in Fort Lauderdale. The accommodations and the owner’s attention to detail exceeded our expectations. The room layout provided ample space and comfort for all 11 of us – allowing us not to be in each other’s way when the children needed downtime or adults sought quiet time. The kitchen was fully equipped. The central a/c worked beautifully. Children and adults alike enjoyed the views of the intracoastal from every room, the expansive patio and outdoor cooking area, and the pool and hot tub. Pam and Mike, our hosts, were always attentive, personable and knowledgable. It was like having an in-house concierge service. We all loved walking and exploring parts of Las Olas. Fort Lauderdale beach was a 5-min drive away. The expansive dock made it simple to rent and enjoy boats for those wanting time on the water. We all had such a great time and can imagine returning for another trip in the future. THANK YOU Pam and Mike!

Lack of privacy and overall let down. Too much money for what you get!
We stayed here Jan 20 -28th with 8 people. There definitely was adequate space for all of us, plus some. After viewing all of the photos on the Vrbo site, we were very excited to stay here! However, upon arrival, we were quickly a bit disappointed as the overall quality of the home did NOT match what is advertised in the photos. This is a quite expensive rental on the waterway. The canal view is amazing and a great place to boat watch and the pool/spa was very nice. However, we felt that we were extremely overcharged for this property. The overall aesthetics of the property did not match the photos or what they charge. The flooring in several bedrooms was very worn and scratched. The house was in need of several repairs and updates (automatic blinds did not work for a few days, master bedroom fan blades fell off in the middle of the night and had to be repaired by us, doorknob on a bedroom door fell off, visible black mold on the ceiling vents, most of the kitchen pans and utensils were very out dated and many were moldy, and even a dead cockroach in the kitchen drawer just to name a few...) After our trip we were asked by Vrbo to give a review but instead we contacted the property manager directly in hopes of discussing our concerns with her versus online. After sending her a lengthy review with all of our concerns listed, along with photos we took referencing our concerns, we never heard a word from her. There was NO PRIVACY due to the fact the manager and owner live above the garage. This was not disclosed and we felt as if we were being watched the entire time. There was a large yacht boat docked in the back with random people roaming the back yard and exterior of the property at all times of the day and night. Again, very disappointing. We would absolutely not recommend this property at the rate they charge!

An unbelievable and unforgettable experience
Our family was celebrating a very special birthday, and wanted to all be together for a few days enjoying each other and celebrating life. This home could not be any better. In fact it was perfect! Ashley is an excellent host and the home is clean, perfectly situated, i would say the listing does not do it justice, everything about the home and the location is spectacular. We hope to be back soon! Thank you Ashley for helping us create this unforgettable experience.

Beautiful property with a great view. Stunning scenery from the pool/spa area. Huge kitchen with plenty of room to host larger group. Bedrooms spaced out enough to create plenty of separation when needed.

Amazing house
This house is incredible. I stayed here with a really large group of my guy friends and the house was way more room than we needed. The kitchen / living room area is really nice, all of the bedrooms are huge with comfy beds, and the outdoor area is unbelievable -- Pool / hot tub, Grill (covered which was so nice given the hot sun), the fire pits, huge yard area to run around, etc. Also, the fact that the house is on the intercoastal waterway made for some amazing views.
Two more shoutouts - the Sonos system throughout the house (with ability to toggle on/off certain areas) was great. Also, Ashley was super responsive to all of our needs and questions.
I've already had multiple people from my trip if we can get the same house next year for a trip with our wives. I'm hoping Ashley lets us come back!

Amazing Place!
Quite possibly the best vacation we have ever had! We had 4 families, consisting of 8 adults and 6 kids ranging in ages from 12 to 18, and no one wanted to leave.
First, the views over the water are beautiful during both the day and night. So relaxing watching boats and huge yachts passing by. The house has endless places to get away from the group, or to congregate and hang out together. Great outdoor bar, awesome and easy to heat pool and hot tub, and the owners even added a 2 firepit tables and 8 more chairs mid week during our stay.
The house is absolutely huge, and most of the bedrooms have their own bathroom. Plenty of towels, large refrigerator and even an ice machine.
Only a few minutes from the beach, and a ton of great restaurants and shopping nearby.
The owner does live on the property, not really an issue, but should be aware of people coming and going, as they also rent their doc out to a 105ft yacht that happened to be in port, which was very cool to see, and didn’t block our viewd at all.
Great kitchen, living room, cable and all the amenities. Would go back in a heartbeat! Pam was great and an awesome vacation home!!!

Very nice place to stay! Hosts were very friendly and nice!
The house was huge and great for our guests! The location was phenomenal! I would say the only negatives were that there was only one kayak and 5 bikes... there were some things that were not in as good of shape as we were hoping for the price we paid.. The location was awesome though... short Uber ride to down town and beach!

The property was AMAZING! The host were equally AMAZING!
We used this property for one night, but it was an amazing experience! The host were very courteous and accommodating. The house was HUGE, and the view was stunning. The wifi worked great which seems like a small thing, but it makes a big difference for me. My party had a great time and next time we need a house of this size we will definitely be coming back.

Perfect house for an upscale family vacation!
I have traveled to South Florida with my family the last 17 years in a row and I can tell you that this rental property is unparalleled. The house is spacious and well equipped; beautiful and well appointed, but relaxed enough for a family with children. The grounds are spectacular with a great pool and hot tub overlooking a wide intersection of water. The temperature of the pool and hot tub were fully within our control and easy to work. The owners are welcoming, helpful and gracious. Ashley helped us through the rental process and was accurate and patient with her answers to my many questions. The owners live on the property, which I could see being annoying with others, but Pam and Mike were helpful when needed, and left us our privacy at all other times. They even welcomed us with snacks a few cold beers! This property is a total win for a big family— we will definitely be back!

It's beautiful and spacious, and provided all we needed
Terrific property! Gorgeous! The host, Ashley, is a terrific host and a good person. However, there was someone living on the property, and they were present during our stay. During Day 2 of our stay, a 100 ft. Yacht showed up, which was neat to see, but was unexpected, and we ended up needing to move our small rental boat. The pool was also challenging keep at the desired temp. Due to programming issues. Overall, I would rent the property again, but wanted to give an honest review.

Beauitful Intercoastal Waterway Home
Very spacious home, owners was very nice and helpful in finding good local restaurants
and excursions. Satellite went out two times but owners got that taken care of right away.
House was listed with a pool table but there was not one , and do not plan on doing much inside cooking, pots and pans where all aluminum the food just stuck right to them, we went out and purchased a electric skillet so we could cook, the can opener is a hand can opener
not use to that, and one of the ovens did not work . Could not get the jetted tub to work either . When we got there the pool was over 100 degrees, the owners said people before us left the heaters on and they could not the remote to cut it off, we flipped the breakers(we did that) to cut off the heaters so the pool would cool down so we could get in, we finally found the remote , we put the water hose in the pool
for a few hours two different days so we could get in without cooking , it took about three days for the pool to get to the right temperature this was bad for the 6 kids that was with us.
We think maybe they did not want us to use the pool ???.But like I said the owners was nice, and other than all the problems the house was very nice,
But Not Worth The Amount of Money We Paid, Sorry If I Had It To Do Again I Would Not.
