A Little Piece of Paradise
My BF and I chose the property after reviewing a plethora of possibilities.
Billy, the property manager did an excellent job of promptly texting us when we had questions. We loved the tropical oasis just steps away from the house and the pool was an added bonus. The interior was clean and beautiful and the VRBO pics gave an accurate depiction of the property. All in all I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again at this VRBO property. Definitely a lil piece of paradise.

A beautiful oasis in the city!
We had an amazing stay at this property! The house was incredibly comfortable and spotlessly clean, equipped with all the expected amenities. The living and dining areas are spacious, with the living room situated two steps down—adding to the feeling of openness. The unique U-shaped floor plan provides a main bedroom at one end and two additional bedrooms at the other, ensuring plenty of privacy for everyone.
The true standouts are the screened patio, complete with a hot tub and cozy patio furniture, as well as the backyard—boasting a large heated pool, stunning landscaping, and an abundance of seating and lounge areas.
As for the location, it's fantastic—just under 10 minutes from Wilton Manors and downtown Fort Lauderdale, and a short 15-20 minute drive to the beach. We would definitely choose to stay here again without hesitation!
