South Florida Tropical Escape
In the heart of Fort Lauderdale
Just minutes from beaches, dining, shopping, and nightlife
About
In November 2018, we completed a full renovation and refurnishing of our 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home to make it as comfortable and inviting as possible. Over 1,500 sq ft gives plenty of room to spread out and relax with family, friends, or both.
Please visit our booking website for real-time availability and rates.

The living room has a large 55" flat-screen TV and Bose surround sound. The TV is mounted over a remote-controlled fireplace to make operation a breeze and add to the ambiance. The comfortable couch and sitting area provide plenty of room to relax and watch TV or to visit with family and friends. The couch can also convert to a queen-sized foam mattress bed to sleep two more people.

Patio & Swimming Pool
Saving the best for last - a backyard you won't want to leave! Start with the refreshing blue pool with a waterfall and two water jets for the kids. All of this is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping and plenty of room to catch some sun in the chaise lounges. Add in the shade and comfort of the large pergola with seating for six to escape the heat and enjoy the endless breeze of the ceiling fans. Finish it off with an outdoor TV, more Bluetooth music, and a BBQ gas grill to make it the perfect tropical escape!

Under the ADA, service dogs must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered (unless the guest has no use of their hands for control of the leash). The host should be notified at the time of booking if service animals will be staying in the home.
