What a great location this is! It is absolutely stunning. The sunrises and sunsets are gorgeous. The house is a little outdated and a little oddly shaped and how the rooms are but overall we had a fantastic day. Ashley is absolutely fantastic to work with and was great all the way around. She made everything so easy for us. We hosted an event with about 50 people and it was perfect. It definitely can host a large event. Definitely recommend the house.

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!

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.

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.

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!!!

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!
