We were extremely lucky to see a manatees surface right in front of the dock. 🥰. Great location, close to everything. Fabulous sunsets. Enjoyed many evenings sipping cocktails on the dock watching all the activity on the river, kayaks, paddle boards and boats going by. The dogs loved it too. We will definitely return again.

This was a terrific place to stay for our visit to Ft. Lauderdale! The photos on the listing were highly accurate! The home was beautifully and comfortably furnished, and the kitchen was very well-equipped. It was so nice to make breakfast and eat out by the pool. We spent a lot of time in the pool, enjoying the lovely views of the canal and the mature palm trees. We appreciated staying at a place that was pet friendly - our golden retriever felt right at home. The hosts were readily available when questions arose, and were extremely friendly throughout our stay. We would love to come back! ##### Edward S.

The house was beautiful and our host, Stephan, was informative, friendly and provided us with a warm welcome too. The kitchen was well stocked and ample refreshments were generously provided. The pool, my goodness the pool, was amazing and wonderfully refreshing and relaxing at all times of the day. The location of the house was great. Lots of conveniences nearby but importantly the location was very peaceful and relaxing. Being situated on the canal is a highlight. We had such a great time that we are already planning to have a return visit. ##### Scott H. Stayed 8 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill C.

The back of the house, pool, music, and serenity of Middle River, gave us a quiet oasis for a weeklong stay. We loved being in close proximity to anything we needed. Walking through the neighborhood felt peaceful and safe. Stephane was easily accessible to answer questions when needed. Minor suggestions would be a garbage disposal and a new faucet in the hall bath. We have already rebooked this property. Thank you Stephane ! ##### Jill C.

Apr 17, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Paradise Found This was a truly wonderful rental experience. The house is in a quiet residential neighborhood where you can get to any restaurants, stores, or highways in just a few minutes. It has a circular driveway and carport. The house has 3 very nice sized bedrooms, each had a TV. 2 full bathrooms, washer/dryer, and an outdoor bathroom for pool use. Lots of natural light. It is tastefully well appointed in mid century modern style. It was very clean and fully stocked with towels, sheets, and cleaning/laundry supplies. The kitchen was clean and fully equipped for cooking with all the pots, pans, cooking utensils, silverware, and glassware you could ever need. It had a fridge already stocked with some drinks, Keurig coffee maker and a Nespresso machine. Outside was a huge, clean, stainless steel BBQ and grilling utensils. As nice as the house is, the main star of the show is the backyard. The back terrace is paved in travertine tile and decorated with nice modern pool/patio furniture. The rectangular pool is roughly 15'x40' and is heated so it always feels great. The yard is well landscaped with lots of lush greenery to give a feeling of tropical privacy. There is a lawn across the length of the seawall and 4 large palmtrees to frame the calm, wide river in the background. The pool and landscaping have soft lighting in the evening to make a relaxing setting. There is also a small dock as well. I have stayed at many rental homes over the years. Most are kinda shabby and I have always had to clean things before settling in...but not with this house. I immediatly felt comfortable here as if I was staying at a friend's home. We wasted no time and got right into making drinks and enjoying the beautiful setting. We will definitely come back to stay here again. ##### Erika B.

Recently had the pleasure of spending an entire month in this home. This home itself has many awesome attributes as noted by others and the fully accurate property description, but the outdoor living space is beyond exceptional. Wake up every morning and see the stunning views of peaceful relaxation, enjoy the amazing and large salt water pool, morning coffee by the river, and evening meals prepared on the large BBQ grill overlooking a stunning setting accented by beautiful landscape lighting. I can’t say enough. It was a truly memorable experience. The owner could not have been more cooperative or attentive to any questions you have. Highly recommended! ##### Joe P.

Dec 29, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Getaway Just ended a perfect one week vacation at this property in Ft Lauderdale. We really enjoyed our time at this home. The house was perfect for six people with three bedrooms, all with king beds. The living room was comfortable and perfect for conversation as well as watching a movie. The kitchen had everything you could want to prepare any meal. The backyard was the perfect little getaway with a beautiful heated pool and a peaceful waterfront view. The beds were very comfortable with quality bedding that felt like we were in a high end hotel. The best part was that the central air conditioning worked flawlessly and really kept the house as cool as we needed. We had a couple of questions for the owners, and they responded within minutes and couldn’t do enough to make sure we were happy and comfortable. Also, we were close to restaurants and a short drive to A1A and the beach. Honestly, we loved our stay at this property. Thank you! ##### Lewis B.

Stephane's house is great! Located directly on the Middle River, close to the action of Wilton Dr. (easy $6 Uber), but far enough away to be relaxing and tranquil. Check-in using the coded lock was a breeze and communication with Stephane during our stay was excellent with him very responsive to text. Highlights of our stay were the picturesque pool and the included kayaks for exploring the river. All around a lovely trip and we would be very happy to return! ##### Jon L.

Amazing house inside and out, amazing location, and most of all amazing host! This rental is what makes the difference between an excellent experience and an exceptional one: stylish interior design and equipment to include amazing bedding and TVs in all rooms, outstanding outside to include real big heated pool, kayaks, bikes, fishing equipment, outdoor high quality furniture, shower.. The view was beautiful and relaxing. The house was spotless. This was one of the best hosts so far, all platforms included: never experienced so many welcome touches : stocked fridge with water, ice, drinks, kitchen with Keurig and Nespresso pods, and anything necessary to cook, bathrooms properly stocked with high quality items! Easy and flexible check-in, check-out and great communication on everything. We wanted to immediately extend our stay for few weeks but, understandably, it was fully booked and I do understand why. Best house, best hosts, best value! Thank you. ##### Marianne D. Stayed 13 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Krista Y. Nov 28, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property, excellent stay We absolutely loved this location for our family Thanksgiving holiday! The property is beautiful, the accommodations were top notch, the owner's communication was fantastic! We really didn't have to leave (nor did we want to). We've enjoyed the views, the lounging area, the kayaks to use from the dock. We used the grill, cooked Thanksgiving dinner, enjoyed coffee from the dock in the mornings, sat outside to eat on the pool deck, and generally just relaxed for the week. The neighborhood was nice to walk, and close to everything! Beautiful parks to walk around within 3 miles, as well as the ocean! We'll be back to this beautiful place... Hopefully very soon! ##### Krista Y.
