A Home Away from Home.
We stayed five nights during the new year break and felt right at home from the first hello from the owner. With a car, Costco, Walmart, Publix are all around. We visited Fort Lauderdale, Haulover Beach Park, South Beach, Wynwood from our “home”. While at “home”, the spacious living room and two bedrooms are comfy, the kitchen is well stocked and the heated swimming pool is an eye candy to watch. On a sunny day, the lush garden brings more tranquility to this super quiet house and garden. Really lovely.

Secluded tropical Stay
My husband and I had a very nice stay here! I would highly recommend it to others as well. The place was very secluded. We flew into Ft. Lauderdale and visited with family in Miami as well-- it was pretty centrally located between Ft. Lauderdale and Miami-- so it was convenient. Ana Maria (the Host) was always very responsive to me when I reached out to her. We were able to enjoy the pool (which apparently is shared with some of the other tenants) in the shared space area. It was on the cool side, but we still managed to get in and enjoy it. If you are prone to mosquitos... I would strongly suggest bringing some bug spray if you plan on spending a great deal of time out near the pool area. There were several outdoor cats hanging around the premises as well. The bed, linens and pillows were very comfortable. Ana Maria had coffee there for the coffee pot- so that was nice that I did not have to buy or bring my own coffee in the morning to make -- she even had a few bottles of water in the bridge for us. Overall we had a very pleasant stay, it was clean and relaxing. Thank you!

Peaceful Oasis in the middle of Miami
My husband and I stayed here during my surgical recovery. Anamaria, the owner, was extremely hospitable and so welcoming! The courtyard is just a perfect lush tropical oasis and it’s so peaceful! The house was perfectly equipped with everything we could need during our stay. It was hard to believe we were in the middle of Miami and it was this quiet! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have added this property to our list of “must stay again”!

Absolutely beautiful
We have stayed in many vrbo places in Florida and this was by far our favorite experience. From the moment you walk through the gate of the property, we entered the gateway to paradise. The pictures fail to show the unbelievable beauty of the peaceful atmosphere of this incredible garden. The owner is so kind and immediately available and accommodating for anything we needed. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Great Hideaway Spot
The property is tucked away on a secluded, quiet street; yet, the location is close to all things one would need or want while on vacation - beach, malls, restaurants and coffee shops. The owner was FANTASTIC and proactive and flexible. I thoroughly enjoyed the space.

Beautiful hidden little gem!
This property was more than I thought it would be. It is located off a dead street but feels like you are going into a private retreat. The kitchen was well stocked and the owner made sure you did not need anything (extra pillows, blankets and towels). The pool was great and so relaxing. Their are cats in the property and most are friendly. Can’t say enough about this owner she is WONDERFUL!

My stay here was pleasant. Kitchen was well stocked. I only used the front bedroom and bathroom. The bed was super comfy and bathroom was nice. Never used the second bathroom. It was clean but older style. The pictures for place and property are accurate. I went during horrible weather so Pool use was out of question. Manager was great. She checked up on me daily via text. I would stay there again. 😁

Garden of Eden
Replete with ample amenities, Anna Maria’s place was a perfect respite for us. Greeted by a secluded garden entry and welcomed by a cozy cabin-like den, we felt at home immediately. The enchanting tropical backyard semi-private pool provided us much needed relaxation and down time. Anna Marie was the PERFECT host who went out of her way to make our stay hassle-free.

Beautiful surroundings.
Staying at Ana Maria's duplex went above and beyond my expectations. Ana Maria was a welcoming and accommodating hostess. The duplex was lovely and comfortable inside, and the outside area with its surrounding foliage and heated pool was a relaxing space to sit with friends and drink margaritas. I had a wonderful time.

Perfect home base for beach vacation
This was a great place to stay for our beach vacation! We were going to Haulover every day, which was super convenient - less than 20 min drive. The house had everything we needed, and it was nice to relax and crash in the evenings, and drink coffee by the pool in the mornings. The owner was fantastic and responded quickly to all communication. Would definitely visit again - I already miss the pool cats!

Little slice of paradise
Our stay was incredibly relaxing! Ana María checked in every morning by text to make sure everything was going well and see if we needed anything. The only downside to this yard is that since its covered with beautiful tropical vegetation that are tree spiders and lots of mosquitoes (but there was bug spray there to use and no spiders fell on our heads 😀). There are also many cats on the property but they left us alone. Highly recommend to anyone looking to stay close to the hustle and bustle of the city but wanting a relaxing place to rest and rejuvenate!

Wonderful!!!
Starting with the way we felt when approaching the home . . . it was amazing! It looked like the Rain Forest with all the beautiful tropical plants and flowers. Ana Scampini (the owner) was so very accommodating! She made our stay very special! The fenced-in property was in an area so convenient to everything. The ocean is only 10 minutes away by car along with so many places of interest. For one, the old Spanish Monastery which was built in Spain in the year of 1133 and transferred to the U.S. by William Randolph Hearst sometime in the 20th century. There's also the Everglades where we actually saw a mother alligator nesting with her babies. It was amazing! We also took a boat tour of Biscayne Bay which in between downtown Miami and Miami Beach and saw the Summer home of Shaquill O'Neal and his yacht . . . huge!! The tour guide was so informative. We also took a day trip to Naples for lunch one afternoon. I'm telling you, you will not be bored. Even if you don't want to take a day trip, there is a private pool in the back yard with, again, tropical plants and flowers and beautiful butterflies. We stayed the month of this February and wanted to stay longer! I highly recommend this beautiful place of peace and relaxation!

A Fantasy Property
Ana Maria is a super hostess! We loved our home away from home. The beds and bedding were so comfortable. Our hostess anticipated our every need. From the little chocolates to the plush towels, we couldn't ask for anything more. Our grandchildren who visited us for the weekend had a blast in the pool and loved playing with the friendly cats. We hope to visit this truly tropical home again soon!

Tropical Luscious Entrance!
My husband’s and I favorite part of this rental was the beautiful green tropical front fenced yard. Also the backyard pool. The rental is very roomy and clean. The furniture is in good shape and comfortable. The master bed mattress is nice and comfortable.There are three nice TVs in the unit. The kitchen is cozy, well equipped and it is functional. Ana María, the hostess, is kind and very attentive. She checked in with us via text every morning and provided good restaurant recommendations. She lived in the adjoining unit, and gracefully gave us a tour of her home and gifted us two bottles of bubbles! The only two drawbacks were that there were no towel racks or ventilation in the master bathroom. Overall, we had a very nice stay and recommend this place.

Upon arriving at the property you feel like you are in a private compound. Everything you need is provided. We went to the nearby grocery store and ate many of our meals outside by the pool. Will stay here again if we are ever in Miami.
