Great property. Great location. The only issue we had was around the pool area area. We did end up catching small shards of glass in our feet in the pool area from something that must’ve been broken prior to our arrival.

PROs - property as described. We stayed with our daughter and 11 years granddaughter and it suited us well. 2 blocks to the beach. Nice patio with a beautiful calming view. Small pool shared with condo next door. Host responded to any of our questions right away CONs - property was renovated but appliances, especially in the kitchen are very old - toaster, stove, coffee machine, etc. Beach chairs and umbrella are awful, they are so old that you practically sit right on the sand. Host did not allow for an early check in or late check out, even for an hour. It was a first property that we have rented via VRBO that required us to send a load of various forms and documents , and provide $450.00 damage deposit even if we paid for a damage insurance. 2 weeks as we left and we are still waiting for the damage deposit to be returned. We had a very unpleasant incident with a patio umbrella. When we checked in , patio umbrella was opened. We did not touch it, it stayed opened for the duration of our stay. One day before we had to leave was a strong wind and when we came back from a beach umbrella flew away from the table, it was on the ground, broken. We tried to close it but could not because we realized it was broken before and ropes where tied up.This is probably why it was opened in the first place, when we checked in. It also was not locked to a holder, the holder is rusty. Our host ordered a new umbrella right away but she also charged our damage insurance.

This property suited our expectations based on the online description. It was a quiet neighborhood with an easy walk to the beach and many restaurants. We didn’t even mind the iguanas along the canal watching us while at the duplex pool! We would consider a return trip.

Read the reviews, it was exactly as reviewed. Some things were better than others. The pool and outside area is where we spent most of our time, which was great. The dishwasher was broken but we were told about that from the start. It wasn’t great doing all the dishes but it could be worse. The master bedroom is very warm. Overall very clean. The kitchen is very small but it worked. We think Lauderdale By The Sea was a fun area. It is small and has that old Floridian charm, enjoy.

The duplex was nice sized and close walk to the beach and shops/restaurants. Any issues that came up, Sabrina answered and quickly fixed, even on Christmas Day!! My son enjoyed fishing from the dock daily; he brought his own rod and tackle. The beach was 3 blocks away; 4 beach towels, 3-4 chairs, and some buckets were provided. Overall a nice time.

Nice location with just a short walk to the beach.

This was a very lovely home that reminded me of old Florida charm! Everything was very clean and the pool was just lovely. It was so nice to swim and look at the canal. Very affordable for the location as the beach was just a few minutes away and the Lauderdale by the Sea area was just a few more minutes which made walking possible to all areas. I would definitely come back and stay there again! Sabrina was easy to reach and was kind to let us get a later check out date on the day of our departure.

Nice 2 bed, perfect for us & our son. Walking distance to tons of stuff- restaurants, ice cream shops, beach. Cute pool.
