If you’re looking for a great place to stay that is very private, comfortable, quiet, and clean, with all the amenities of home, this is it! It’s located in a nice subdivision but the landscaping creates a very private buffer from the rest of the world. In the back you have your own private patio and pool with a river view. Last but not least, the beds were super comfortable so we slept well every night. Hope you’ll check it out.

My two children and I recently stayed here for two weeks. We rented one side of the duplex and would definitely consider renting both sides if we return with a bigger group. The property was clean, well-equipped, quiet and comfortable. It's right on the water but feels very private. The pool is solar heated and as warm as you want or need it. Any questions or issues were addressed immediately by the owners. Highly recommend!

Great stay. Two king beds that are very comfortable. Pool is new and well done but it is on the small side but it was fine. Bath is updated and nice. For a 2/1 it is very roomy and comfortable. I will be back. Owners were very accessible but we didn't have any problems. We will be back.

We booked a 5-week stay to escape cold weather and pandemic shutdowns up north. This property was just what we needed. WiFi/tech meant I was able to work 9 to 5 for 3 weeks without trouble (used dining room table) Private back patio and pool was perfect for short escapes from work calls. The back patio is right one a water way so iguanas, egrets, ducks, fish - great fun to watch (and occasionally be startled by - in a good way). Everything was clean with new bathroom and kitchen. The counter space in kitchen is at a premium but we still managed to cook 50% of our meals there with great equipment. Washer & dryer meant we came home with clean clothes. Both beds are comfortable - one softer and one firmer. Smart TVs in each bedroom and living room with Roku, streaming and DirectTV. Front yard is lush, giving privacy and quiet from the already quiet street. Private parking right there. And the location was great as a launching place for trips to Key Largo, Palm Beach, Naples and the beautiful gardens and parks in South Florida. We loved it and loved our hosts. Highly recommend. P.S. This is 1/s of a duplex but the patio and pool are private for this half of the building. In 5 weeks, 4 other people or families stayed next door. We barely heard them.

Cute house with tasteful furnishing. King beds were comfortable and roomy. Walking distance to restaurants and bars @ Wilton Manors.

This property was perfect for a much needed, relaxing getaway. The unit was spotless and impeccably decorated. The hosts were responsive, helpful and accommodating. The outdoor space is truly like a little slice of heaven. We enjoyed a daily walk to stork’s bakery for amazing coffee and breakfast treats. And we highly enjoyed all of the animal friends. The lizards and ducks were entertaining to watch and fun to have around. 5 stars all the way around.

Comfortable two bedroom unit. Part of a duplex but the patio and pool area are very private. There was an issue with the adjoining unit over noise but i think it was more about an individuals sensitivity Kitchen is adequate but could use some more pots This was my first time using VRBO and i made errors including not checkng all messages snd giving our host a wrong telephone number. They were very understanding

We want to thank James and Fernando for a wonderful stay! The apartment was immaculately clean and decorated tastefully with quality, comfortable furnishings that made this place feel just right. The magnificent views of the mangrove lined, natural estuary from the living room and master bedroom provided a sense of calm and serenity that lasted our entire stay. We enjoyed breakfast on the expansive outdoor patio overlooking the estuary and were greeted each day by a friendly flock of ducks and ibises. It was a wonderful and rare treat to experience "Old Florida" in the hustle and bustle of Ft. Lauderdale. James and Fernando responded quickly to any inquires we had without being intrusive nor making us feel as if we were bothersome. They made us feel welcome and appreciated as special guests. You will not find better hosts nor more exemplary customer service from any traditional hotel or guest house. This wonderful property delivered the peaceful and quiet respite we greatly needed after multiple days of caring for a sick family member and dealing with their many doctors appointments. The apartment is located in a nice neighborhood close to all of the "hubbub" of Wilton Manors but just far enough away to provide the peace and quiet we so desperately needed. A place to get away from the pace, but, not too far that you are! We look forward to staying here again very soon! --Sandra and Frank

Loved the tropical oasis in back. The pool was a perfect compliment.

Beautiful

We enjoyed our relaxing 2 week vacation at James and Fernando's lovely vacation home. Their always responded quickly to any questions we had prior to our trip and also on our trip. Their vacation home is tastefully decorated, comfortable and well equipped. The patio is perfection for just sitting back and relaxing. The mangroves, iguana's and geckos keep you entertained. The pool though small was still great!! Especially after being at the beach for afternoons and to just relax. Hwy 1 is only a couple of blocks away that can take you anywhere you want to go. I would suggest a book be kept at the home for all to write in where they may have visited or the restaurants they went to. Would definitely come back:)

The house was the perfect size for my wife and I, along with our daughter. The pool let us relax when the beach was too windy. The backyard was very peaceful to the point where I took multiple afternoon naps out there (there’s a chance you wake up to an iguana looking at you). It was close to multiple grocery stores, restaurants, and beaches. The only thing I wish they had was a grill, but other than that I would highly recommend.

Great place. Very clean and super convenient. You can walk to Wilton manor bars and cafes and some great restaurants only 10mjn walk away. The private pool is fun - sit in lawn chair or relax by the pool. We’ll definitely book this place again

Location- 10 minute walk to Wilton manor amenities- we loved bona restaurant 18 minute drive to a space where you can park at the beach. Wish there had been a comments book in the property to share tips. On the last day we discovered Hugh Tagore birch state park/ loads of parking for 6 dollars all day. Good cafe Clean toilets and pic nice areas plus lockers for valuables The property is otherwise backs onto the water of colohathee park / quite overgrown mangroves but still great views of incredible iguanas , squirrels and birds. We chose the property partly due to plan of a morning jog in the park each day but the park was closed for improvement- shame! The pool at the property was warm and safe due to a fence but tiny! It is a triangle shape/ really just a place to dip. The terrace was lovely but there are only 3 sun beds which is odd . We were a party of 3 so maybe the owners removed one for their own use knowing this? Kitchen tiny but fine although some flat baking trays would have been good Beds were really comfy and bathroom fine ( no bath) with a good shower. Thoughtful touches like beach chairs and cool box were very appreciated issues - limited info in property re local sights or tips. Get the comments book going! Pool man cams unannounced and scared us Trains very noisy and start at 5.30am ( they sound their horns) but you do get used to it after a few days Air con very noisy - likes washing machine! Overall well priced , clean and safe. Good choice if want to be outside Fort Lauderdale as Wilton manors fun.

Great home, well furnished and with beautiful landscaping. Owners were very attentive and friendly. If only the train tracks were farther away! You do get used to it, though.

If you're looking for that special host, look no further. Sparkling clean house with lots of amenities, will make you feel like in a five star hotel.

We had a wonderful time during our Thanksgiving visit. The place was amazing!!! Extremely clean, pool was fantastic. Owners were great and very helpful. Would highly recommend.

+ decorated with taste and style + well equipped and furnished + nice terrace with view on small lake + in quiet and private area - distant noise of trains passing by

The house was so comfortable and had everything we could dream of needing. I enjoyed the pool while my husband recovered from surgery. He sunbathed a bit to kickstart his healing. The house was close to everything. We will definitely return,next time for leisure not medical 😊�. We prefer this over a hotel any day. The owners were also so helpful and kind! Thank you for having us and creating such a beautiful home!🌸�

Super clean property with luxury of a private pool and back deck area overlooking a canal! The property was very well kept with nice appliances and cutlery necessities provided. Ideal for one or two couples with a great location.

This is such a beautiful and comfortable place for a vacation getaway. It is close to everything and even though I had rain during most of my stay, it was still a pleasant place to be. The owners were such a pleasure to get to know as well. I will be back and stay here again when I need to escape the big city of Houston.

Perfect pool size which they came and cleaned during our stay. Quiet area but yet not too far from downtown. Everything was just perfect. I’ve saved this home as a favorite place to stay When I visit Florida again!
