I rented this home for my family during Thanksgiving and Maria was amazing! The house was perfect, the backyard was gorgeous, and it had everything you needed! Clean, comfortable and had everything you needed! I'll be back.

Our family stayed at La Dolce Villa in Fort Lauderdale, and it truly exceeded our expectations. The home had all the amenities of an excellent B&B—every time we reached for something, whether in the kitchen or anywhere in the house, it was right there. The space was spotless, the beds were incredibly comfortable, the hot tub was warm and ready, and the pool was perfect.If you’re not from Florida, even the iguanas feel welcoming (lol). It was so relaxing and well-equipped that we didn’t even feel the need to go to the beach—we already felt completely at home.Maria was a wonderful host, always available for any questions about the area and truly thoughtful in every detail. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay! The home was very clean, comfortable, great location and just as described. The owner was kind enough to allow a late checkout with no extra charge, which we really appreciated. Everything was wonderful — we’d definitely stay again!

Great Experience
It was 3 adults and 4 children ages 5-11. We stay for a couple of days. The host was very professional and welcoming. There was all sorts of items, products, and games them that came in handy for the family. We had a great time. It close to the airport grocery store down the street. Check in and check out process was very smooth.
