The home is in excellent condition. Everything was as pictured in photos. The neighborhood is very walkable and fantastic shops and restaurants. I spent a lot of my time in the 88F heated pool. It’s a very quiet and private space.

The house was perfect for our family and our dog loved the secluded backyard. The neighborhood is lovely, we went for walks every day. The beach is just a short drive away and the house has everything you need to have a perfect beach day! I can't think of anything we were unhappy with - the house is stocked with all of the essential basics, it was very clean, smelled wonderful, tons of space inside and out, and the communication was easy. We would 100% stay here again!
Relaxing by the pool was so enjoyable!

Stayed for a month. This house was clean and well appointed. Management was very responsive. The outdoor area and pool are terrific. The location is very good- near lots of stuff but on a quiet street. I highly recommend this property. We would stay there again.

Winter Getaway

Property was as advertised. Great location. Property was well equipped with the essentials and easy to maintain throughout my stay. I appreciated the weekly pool cleaning and also the responsiveness of the property managers for the few questions I did have. Yes, I plan on returning as able. A well-executed trip. Thank you, Mr. G.

Happy Daze

Communication before our stay was great. All of our questions were answered. Location was perfect for our morning walks. It was a short car ride or Uber to Lauderdale by the Sea or Los Olas Blvd. Grocery store was right around the corner. The back yard is what made our stay so wonderful. The pool was spotless and heated to a very comfortable temperature. The covered porch was where we spend each morning drinking coffee. There was also a relaxing area with lounge chairs for sitting in the sun. Inside, we had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. We would definitely stay at this home again. Fort Lauderdale Stays Vacation Home Rentals was so easy to work with.

Lovely house, thoughtfully appointed

We have been staying at rental properties over Christmas in the FLL area for the last 4 years and this property was definitely the best. The house looked exactly like the pictures and it was impeccably maintained. Plus they thought of everything…multi-port chargers on the nightstands, every kitchen gadget and utensils you would need, ample garbage bags, tissues, toilet paper, dish detergent, everything. Extra towels and pillows, and extra sheets and blankets wrapped in plastic in the closets. There were restaurants and grocery stores within 5 minutes of the house and you could easily walk to some of them. The weather didn’t really cooperate with us this trip, but there were beach towels, beach chairs and an umbrella in the garage. All in all, we were very pleased with this house and we will definitely be back!

Outdoor Oasis Indeed

Our stay at Happy Daze was perfect. Our stay was in August 2024, all the online photos reflect an accurate visual of the property as well as the description. A few highlights for us included: 1) First Impressions do matter, upon arrival (after 7pm) the property was so welcoming, lighting on throughout the house and beautiful Jazz music playing and the decor is vibrant and fun. 2) Virtual Concierge is awesome, providing property detail reminders as well as local dinning recommendations and other points of interest 3) Spotless property, very clean throughout and pool was crystal clear. All linens were clean and easily accessible. A/C was set to perfect temperature 4) Safe neighborhood and plenty of parking. We had our dog with us and the backyard is fully fenced in and very private 5) Location is amazing, close to Federal Hwy and Oakland Park Blvd minutes to the beaches along A1A If you are looking for a perfect vacation spot or going off the grid to enjoy a relaxing private outdoor living space this is the right booking for you. The vibe and flow of this property is a “happy daze” for sure. Thank you to host David for a great getaway.

August 2022 Stay

The house was great. It was very clean & had everything you could possibly need for a weeks stay. The outdoor area is very nice. The location is great. It is a very quiet neighborhood that is close to shopping & some very good restaurants. There are also great beaches just a short drive away. We would definitely stay @ Happy Daze again.
