House was great, as described and comfortable. Great backyard, comfortable beds, and fully furnished kitchen.Neighborhood seemed a bit dicey but it was quite nice after walking around for a few days...
The interior of the house was well designed, but the backyard was just beautiful. The deck, the setting, everything about it was pleasing. Highly recommended place to stay!
Wonder weekend getaway at loved the house. The backyard is where we spent all our time. Property manager was super accommodating and flexible. Highly recommend.
Alex was extremely accommodating and very responsive. I will definitely book one of his properties again if my travels bring me back to Fort Lauderdale.
This property is was clean and well-stocked with the comforts of a home-away-from-home. Mornings in the backyard with coffee were great and evenings grilling dinner were fun. Would recommend this stay to other small groups who are looking to spend a week or two at a house with just about everything. Thanks for making it a great stay!

Thank you so much Corbin for your great review. We really appreciate it and hope you return very soon!
Headed back to Lauderdale to visit my mom with my daughter. We picked this property because we have previously had an excellent experience. This stay did not prove wrong. I will add a recommended restaurant, Milk Money, which is about 5 minutes away. Been there several times each stay. Fantastic food and service! FYI. There are some friendly and beautiful birds around
The pool being out of service was a tad disappointing hiwever, we enjoyed the property regardless. It was quite comfortable and felt like home away from home.

Thank you very much Micheal for your kind words! We really enjoyed hosting you and helping you come back very soon.
The home was perfect for us and our dogs. Nice open concept home with modern updates and decor. The private back patio was beyond anything we could have imagined.
Located in nice neighborhood and close to everything.

Thank you very much Wendy!! We welcome you back anytime.
Inside and backyard very nice. Neighborhood not great but ok. Interesting animals roaming wild including many peacocks, cats and raccoons
But they did not create any issues
The place is a hidden gem. Impeccable cleanliness. The rooms and bathrooms are excellent. The kitchen has everything you need to cook. The property manager answered every question and every need we had. Definitely, I will be back to stay.
