Perfect place to stay right in the middle of Ft. Lauderdale. Cute cozy room with a small kitchenette and a big comfy bed. Communication with the owners was super easy. Make sure you have the VRBO app for communication and messaging between yourself and the owners. Will stay again.

Our stay was absolutely perfect. The home was clean and comfy. The outside was exceptionally appealing, as my boyfriend and I both love plant life. It was like having a private botanical garden right outside. We wouldHope to stay again next year, if it is available.

We were amazed from the moment we entered the gate! The landscape of the garden, the detail and cleanliness of the unit, the safety of the neighborhood was well worth the price! We would definitely stay here again, as it was very convenient to get to many attractions. Thanks for the great hospitality!

Beautiful Topical Garden

We will be back. My husband and I had a wonderful stay. Everything we needed and 4 blocks from where my husband's mom is staying. Half a block from a neighborhood park. The side garden outside our door was fabulously tropical with orchids, stag horn ferns engulfing a tree, and many beautiful blooming flowers I'd never seen before. Perry was so welcoming. The bed was comfy. There was coffee for breakfast.

Awesome mediation garden.

This property is very well located 11 mile north of FTL airport and 3 miles west of beach, in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. A very nice, quiet room that I seldom was in except for sleep as I had much to do while in Ft Lauderdale. Didn't see anyone else on property except for on occasion the owners, which was exactly my needs. Serene, beautiful garden which i meditated in daily surrounded by flowers, trees, occasional birds and lizards. Wonderful stay and will do again in future visit.
