About the host
Hosted by Arinze Ejiofor
Hello and welcome! I’m Arinze, originally from Massachusetts, and I’m passionate about creating comfortable, welcoming spaces where guests can truly feel at home.
As a professional and community-focused host, I understand that travel can be both exciting and stressful — especially when life brings unexpected changes. That’s why I take pride in offering homes that provide warmth, privacy, and peace of mind — whether you’re here for a short getaway, remote work stay, or while your home is being repaired.
When I’m not hosting, I enjoy exploring local neighborhoods, discovering great food spots, and helping people find calm and balance in their daily lives. My goal is simple: to make your stay as smooth, restorative, and memorable as possible.

Welcome to Lavango — your home away from home! 🌴
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it truly captures the best of South Florida living — peaceful, friendly, and beautifully located near everything you could need. Oakland Park has a wonderful community feel — quiet and safe enough for families, yet close to the excitement of Fort Lauderdale’s beaches, dining, and entertainment.
What I enjoy most about this area is its balance — you can spend the morning relaxing by the pool, then be at the beach, a local café, or Las Olas Boulevard within minutes. The neighbors are kind and respectful, making it an ideal place for guests who value comfort, convenience, and connection.
Whether you’re visiting for a short getaway, working remotely, or staying while your home is being repaired, this neighborhood offers a sense of stability and calm that helps you feel grounded right away. 🌴

What makes this property unique
Lavango stands out because it’s more than just a place to stay — it’s a home designed with comfort, care, and real-life needs in mind. From the moment you walk in, the bright open layout and thoughtful touches create a welcoming space that feels peaceful and personal.
The property combines resort-style features — like a private heated pool, Tiki hut, and fully fenced yard — with family-friendly safety elements, including a smart alarm system that alerts parents if a child heads toward the backyard. This blend of relaxation and reassurance makes Lavango ideal for families, remote workers, or anyone rebuilding after life’s unexpected events.
What truly sets it apart, though, is the heart behind the home — every detail was created with guests’ comfort and peace of mind in mind. Whether you’re here for a weekend or a few months, Lavango offers a sense of stability, privacy, and warmth that helps you feel right where you belong. 🌿
