Relaxing Getaway

Our family had an amazing time in this spacious, relaxing home, especially with the great AC that kept us cool during the hot Florida summer. The owner's thoughtful recommendations made our stay even more enjoyable. We loved exploring the neighborhood, with its convenient proximity to parks. It was our first time in Las Olas, and we were delighted to find it so close to the rental. We're already planning our next visit!

Aggressive landlord

The place is full of mosquitoes, kitchen not fully equipped, landlord very aggressive wanting refund for damages after regular use of the property. He called us filty, very offensive and scary. We didn't do any damage. The property honestly needs full renovation, is very old. Very safe for dogs, beautiful park across the street.

Great time in Sailboat Bend

My family and I had such a great time at the property. I want to thank the owner, who was extremely accommodating in every aspect you would need/want from a host. The neighborhood was so relaxing to walk around and because everything was so close, we did a lot of walking and didn't really need to use uber much since we didn' have a car.

Perfect for our short stay in Ft. Lauderdale before cruise

Oliver was fantastic to deal with. He even brought a football and basketball over to the house when he knew we had tween and teen boys with us. The location near the park was great and super easy to the airport and cruise port. The old house charm with new renovation was great. We would definitely stay there again.
