Beach Paradise in Ft Lauderdale

Easy dealing with the owner and he answers promptly

I didnt give 5 star because of issues with the cleaning lady Elizabeth. I will explain what happened with her & end with a little info about the resort. I rented Juans condo with my 11yr son.

Juan was great! Very accommodating, nice & helpful also quickly responsed to my emails answering any questions i had. The condo was not only cheap but nice. He has everything you would need! Good amount of towels, blow dryer, night light, hand soap, hangers in the large walkin closets, dish soap, utensils, dishes, also 2 beach chairs which was great because the resort charges to rent them. Very nice space & roomy. Bedroom has a door you can close also a separate a/c control. From the livingroom dinning room & kitchen. The view is not beach front its the front of the resort still a beautiful view. Nice sized patio with privacy has 2 chairs & a table. One couch has pull out bed. I took this vacation w my sister & her 2 teenagers they came over for a while & it wasnt too crowded. I would definitely come back & rent from Juan again.

The issues with Elizabeth the cleaning/housekeeper. Juan was great & last min let us check in early. While i was changing into my swimsuit my son came to get me i come out to the livingroom to find a lady in our room (my son didnt let her her). I was clearly in the middle of changing as i only had my swimsuit top on & my romper hanging at my waist. I told her i was just changing & Juan said we could check in early she said she didnt know & wanted to drop off some stuff (had a few things in her hand) then she went on to ask when we were checking out i said we had a late check out & i wasnt sure of the time because not only did we just get there but i had not slept much. She went on asking so i tried to find my phone to check. Couldnt find it. So i again repeated idk she said Juans message said 2pm i said well that must be the time & repeated i wasnt sure i was tired. She then went on to ask what time our flight was leaving. I again said i wasnt sure & repeated myself again. She then said ok & asked if she could put the stuff she had in the closet i said that it was fine. Was all annoying but she was nice.

The morning of our last day i emailed Juan & explained Elizabeth stopped by. After i rechecked the email to confirm our late check out time from a month prior. I told Juan we had a 3pm check out & that i agreed with Elizabeth with the 2pm time she insisted Juan told her. My sister & her children brought there luggage to our room

The condo was very nice, we enjoyed it being on the beach. It was walking distance to a lot of restaurants. The reason I did not give it a 5 star because the pictures are deceiving; it appears it is facing the ocean side but it is facing the FT Lauderdale side which was OK because you get to see the Sunset. I would stay again.

We had a great stay in the condo. The condo is very clean and bright. The location is great and a short walk to to several establishments. Great sunsets. The owner (Juan) even contacted me to make sure everything was ok.

The unit has a street view, one of the pictures posted shows a beach view. We really enjoyed staying here. It was clean, felt safe, the beds were comfortable, plenty of towels. Nice ocean front with a large tiki bar serving food.
