While this property checks all the ratings here, it was far from ideal. Good location, easy check in, and good communication with the owner.The overall appearance is shabby, in need of exterior and interior painting and maintenance. The furnishings also are shabby. The kitchen was well stocked, but the oven didn’t work properly. But the biggest problem we had was the patio and pool area. Two lounge chairs were completely broken. The owner replaced them after I told her they were unsafe to use, but these replacements were also second-hand. The cushions on all chairs were old and dirty. The grill as rusted through and through and needs to be replaced. However, the biggest problem we had was the pool. After paying an additional charge to have the pool heated, the heater wasn’t working for one half of our stay. The pool maintenance company would come, after we notified the owner, and get it running again. It would stop again within 24 hours. Additionally, the filter didn’t work either, so the pool was dirty with debris. The tiles inside the pool edge were grimy. I might have been more forgiving about the pool maintenance if we hadn’t paid for heating the pool.

Our stay was wonderful. The house was very clean, and Mira was responsive and attentive to all our questions. The location was perfect, and everything we needed was just a short walk away. The pool was excellent, and the neighborhood was quiet and safe. We would definitely return for another vacation!!

Great unit, part of a duplex with shared pool. Neighbor is close on pool side, so I am sure that a party crowd wouldn’t be ideal. For us with just one toddler, it was perfect. Pool has shade in morning and light at night. While not childproofed, there isn’t much for a kid to hurt or vice versa. The location is awesome. That’s why we picked the place. Five minute walk to bars/restaurants/pier, beach, or the grocery store. You don’t really need a rental car. Has all the basic needs with a separate master bath. It was immaculately clean. First place I have stayed in Florida where I haven’t seen any bugs inside, so it’s treated. That being said, if you plan to be outside, bring a couple citronella candles to have by poolside. That’s not the owners fault, that’s just Florida when breezes are light. Will definitely stay again.

Very nice place, clean and comfortable. A little further walk to the beach than I would have liked (although the rest of my family was fine with it). Convenient to supermarket and restaurants. Didn't even have to rent a car, just Uber'ed to and from the airport. Having the pool was a nice plus (but bring some bug spray because the back yard, although very pretty was a little buggy) We needed an extra umbrella and the owner got it to us within an hour of us asking for it.

Between the location to the beach and restaurants to the pool and overall feel of the house, this made for the perfect place to stay to enjoy our trip to Ft. Lauderdale.

This villa was perfect for my family. Plenty of room, well stocked with everything you need, and nicely decorated and clean. It was great that.my husband and I had a private room with a king bed and my kids were comfortable in a shared room with two beds.

The house is beautiful , big and well maintained. I really recommend it to anybody.

I love this house súper confortable and convinient. Homeowner always replied my messages fast. Love it.

Very nice house and location!

We have been looking for “our spot” in Lauderdale-by-the-sea, and we found it! Such a beautiful setting and the pool is huge! Miranda was terrific! If you are looking for a clean, beautiful rental, this is it. We will be back next year!

Nice, clean property with a perfect location! Pretty pool with a private patio to grill and eat. Thank you Miranda!

We loved it here! Owner is super accommodating! Walking distance to shopping, beach, restaurants. We will be back!

Miranda was friendly and provided us with all the information we needed for our stay in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea! The house was spacious, spotless and was ideal for our vacation! We spent time at the beach (which was a very short and easy walk), enjoying the nightlife at the beachfront bars and restaurants nearby and we had time to relax by the pool! We will be staying here again for future trips!!!
