Karen was very prompt at communicating! Her place was great for our long weekend getaway. We do a lot of cooking, so I do feel the cookware could use to be updated.My only complaint was the (very) diluted dish soap, which was also the hand soap in the bathroom.
Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 28 July 2025
Thank you for the suggestions. It’s a great way for me to learn what needs replacing or repairing. The dish soap and hand soap should not be the same at all so I will talk with my cleaner about that. Again thank you for bringing my attention to the cookware.

Great place, great location

Very comfortable, quiet place. nice pool. Clean, well maintained. Basic. Literally on the beach (big plus). Residents are warm and friendly. Location is close to many many restaurants and destinations. Short drive, not really walking distance (unless you're Ok with walking over two miles one way).

Our perfect getaway

This was just the type of place we were looking for! Loved the view from our room and the easy access to the beach. The pool was also very nice. The room was clean and had everything you would need including beach gear. The host Karen was very responsive and friendly. This location was great. Plenty of places to eat and get a drink. Publix, Dunkin…etc only a mile away. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to family and friends. Beautiful area!

Perfect for Two

We really loved this little studio. Karen has really done an amazing job- maximizing every bit of space making it comfortable. Every convenience is covered- Beach cart,cooler, freezer packs, umbrella and chairs too! Just a great stay with a pretty view. Beach is just down the stairs and out the walkway. That's it. Thank you again Karen for sharing your little slice of paradise and letting us check in early.

Enjoyable Stay

A very clean, well stocked efficiency unit just north of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. Not far from Sea Watch restaurant (15 minute walk south), one of several great restaurants in the area. Great place for a couple - small but well designed - has a cooler, beach chairs and towels if you want to spend the day on the beach. North on A1A is a Publics grocery and the kitchen provides all you need for meals “at home.” Owner Karen lives very close and is responsive to any questions you might have. We texted some questions at the beginning of our week’s stay and got immediate responses. They were doing some exterior repair of recent hurricane damage and preparing to paint, so she gave us access to the pool at her place - very gracious though we just used the pool there. If you are looking for a good deal for a place to stay in Lauderdale, especially for a week or more, this is it!

Not to be missed!

This condo was perfect for us. It is very clean and decorated nicely. The location was quite and from our front window we had a nice view of the beach and the pool. We felt very safe here as you need keys to enter the property from either the parking lot or the beautiful beach. Our host Karen was awesome , and our whole check in and out was very smooth. We will definitely look to rent with her again when in Ft Lauderdale.

I can rave about the location (fabulous) and the accommodations (clean, updated and exactly as advertised), but the most complimentary thing I can share is how amazingly gracious Karen (host) was for our stay. She promptly answered my questions, made excellent recommendations and was lovely to work with. Please run - don't walk- to reserve her little slice of paradise! We will definitely be back!
