Are you looking for a cozy tropical home with a secluded backyard to get lost in? This comfortable Hollywood home comes with a big covered deck, a barbecue area, tiki bar and very private fenced backyard. Mango and banana trees bring plenty of shade for you and your dogs. Relaxing comes easy in this setting. It's only two miles from the beach so there's a wonderful tropical breeze. Hardwood floors and tropical colored walls give this home a real Florida feel. Don't let the price fool you, I'm just trying to pay the mortgage and still use my home. It's really a cozy and clean home. It's located one mile from downtown Hollywood where there is plenty of wonderful sidewalk restaurants to enjoy an outdoor meal. Hollywood is still a nice small town and this is the perfect home to experience it from. If you are looking for a retreat to write your book, paint, or compose or recover....this is it! I have a playpen, highchair and baby seat for one of the two bikes for your use.
Pet Friendly home!: Dogs of any size are welcome here. The yard is very big and totally fenced. The interior is hardwood floors and tile. It's really a wonderful home to stay in. You will be so happy and relaxed here. There is usually a wonderful breeze blowing through the house from the ocean. The back deck is the perfect place to kick back and enjoy the view. My house is kid friendly since I have a toddler. You are welcomed to use the playpen, high chair and baby bike seat. You'll find...coffee filters, paper towels, toilet paper, detergents and soaps, blow dryers, and all sorts of house things waiting for you. It's my home when I'm not renting it so I keep it supplied.
Artist Retreat: If you would like a long term rental to work from this is the place. Call me and we can talk about it.

This was the most comfortable home we have stayed in. We felt like it was ours. So tropical and clean and just a nice place to relax in. The backyard is unbelievable. Cocktails and barbeques every night on the deck and the dogs having so much room to run around in was just perfect.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 24/27

We just got home from a wonderful week in Hollywood. We had a great time at this cozy little house. Very clean and loaded with character! Had everything we needed! Guest bedroom has two twins, and is a split plan from the master. Master has its own bath with a washer and dryer, which was a super plus with little kids. Our dog had the best time ever in the amazing backyard. Sat out and grilled one night and it was so relaxing. We even ate a few mangos that had fallen from the tree and they were so sweet! Beach and stores all nearby, and get breakfast at Jacks diner down the road. Stroll downtown Hollywood in the evening only a mile or two away. Scenic A1A is right up the road if you feel like taking a leisurly cruise and seeing mansions. Miami is a quick drive also. Had a great time, hopefully we will be back again and again!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

My family and I felt at home right away, we loved everything about the house and the awesome back yard. Everything is so close...10 mins to the beach, 30 mins from Miami. I would recommend anyone who wants to rest in a quiet neighborhood and a tropical yard go to this lil charming Tropical Home. Thanks Again Andrea! We will be back next year :)Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

The photos of this home do not do it justice! CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN... What a wonderful place for you and your animals. My boxer did not want to leave, I could not keep her inside, she loved the yard and the freedom she had to roam. The backyard was like living in paradise. We were there for 14 days and hated to leave. The owner was easy to reach and was more than eager to help with any questions or even with suggestions for nice beaches and local attractions.... I would recommend this home as being a great place to stay! We were looking for a home away from home and that is exactly what we got!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

We drove about 17 hours in a pick up truck pulling a trailer with 3 motorcycles to stay in South Florida for a week. When we arrived at the house, it was awesome! It looked just like the pictures on the Homeaway website. The house was very clean and comfortable for the four of us. The backyard is to die for! You just want to pack it up and bring it home with you. The house is in a great location. Hollywood Beach is very cute and very clean. We rode motorcycles the entire time we were there and had a wonderful time. I would recommend this house if you are planning to stay in the Hollywood area. Now that I am back home, my husband and I are buying tropical plants to redo our backyard. Five stars plus on this rental....enjoy!!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

Just got back from spending three weeks in the house. Honestly felt as if it were my own by the time we left. I hated to leave. Super cozy and nice and clean. The backyard and patio are wonderful. The neighbors were very nice too. Would definitely stay there again. If you like the beach you are in the right spot. If you like Everglades then you are only a 20 minute ride from there too. I recommend grabbing a Friday Sun-Sentinel and it will tell all that is going on while you are there. I hope the next person enjoys themselves as much as we did. Thanks Andrea!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 14/14

We stayed here 2 weeks and had a great time. The house was clean and very comfortable. A great location with easy access to everything. The boardwalk on Hollywood Beach is fun but can be busy at times - make sure you talk to Andrea, she will tell you where the quieter beaches are. The backyard to the house was incredible - you will not find a better place to take a dog - she had a riot! The bed was very comfortable, you get great breezes from the ocean. There are fans in almost every room - we never needed to turn on the air even though it was unusually hot during the second week. I'de recommend Las Brisas on the boardwalk as a great place to eat. All in all, it was a great vacation.Recommended for: Sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway.

First: we want a place that is Clean. This place really was. 2nd-we want a place that is comfortable:this was. and 3rd we wanted a place that was pet friendly: 4 stars in this area. This was a delightfully renovated bungalow in old Hollywood,Fl. Great for 2! We could have our family there for dinner (BBQ) and the dogs could play in the yard. It was 20 min. from every where we wanted to go. My sister in a wheelchair, using a small portable ramp, found this place accessible also.Recommended for: Pet owners.

This home was far better than our expectations. Everything we needed was available to us, we forgot to bring a few items such as body lotion and it was there for our use. We felt like we were living in our own home! The location was great, just a short drive to the beach and perfect distance to both fort lauderdale and miami. We had such a great time here and we would recommend this home to anyone, especially those with a dog.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 9/9
