Great beach access and spacious rooms with amazing views. On site management was a little bumpy (concierge, elevator service) but this was during Covid-19 so understandable.

A Great Place To Stay!

We had a great stay here. The view was amazing and the condo was very nice and clean. The property manager was one of the most attentive we have ever had. She made everything perfect and went out of her way. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. The amenities and everything in the building were also great. Very nice resort with great service and hospitality from everyone on site.

Fantastic Location

Great communication, easy checkin, everything went very smooth. Fantastic location, easy to the beach or pool. Had meetings nearby, and the rest of the group could keep busy. Yes valet and resort fee is extra upon arrival, which is cleary stated up front. Used to live in the area years ago, its a great spot between FLL and MIA.

Perfect Getaway!!

4 of us (60+) needed a week getaway and we found the perfect location!! Excellent view of the ocean. Very quiet and relaxing and ALL the staff we interacted with were courteous and responsive. We flew into Ft. Lauderdale which was only a few miles away and much more convenient than Miami airport. A very short drive to grocery stores and great outdoor restaurants. You cannot go wrong renting this VRBO!!!

Lovely apartment with lovely view

We very much enjoyed our stay. Our unit and the entire building were fresh and well-maintained. Employees of the condominium were kind, considerate, and helpful. The pool was beautiful. On-site dining was great. We had great massages on the 9th floor. We especially appreciated the assistance of our booking agent Laure.

Room was exactly as listed, beautiful views, overall a great experience.

Laure was helpful and great to work with, especially with info leading up to the trip. Building & facilities were fantastic. Only had two small complaints, could here some pipes knocking throughout the night & the toilets were not great, had to plunge them alot. Other than that were extremely happy with the room, building, amenities and Laure! We would definitely stay there again.

Great location , view, and beach access!

Beautiful view, location, and beach access, but the property management was very strict and had many rules. We could not check in one minute earlier and use the property. You had wrist bands that dictated where you could be at all times, different colors for different status. We could not go to the pool, beach or get through any doors before or after check in or out. We promptly checked out before 11 and got our wrist band cut off and were not allowed to go anywhere on the property. We wanted to sit at the pool until our flights but were rudely kicked out like criminals. The condo was nice but not completely clean. Ice in freezer had some food stain on, floors not completely clean, bathroom could have been cleaner all around. Condo provided no kitchen towels but expected you to wash all your dishes. Coffee maker, but no coffee to get you started. No laundry soap to wash your towels. Chairs on balcony were very torn and weathered, mismatched and ready to be retired. The chairs would fly across the balcony on windy days, so not appropriate. The internet would not connect completely. Kitchen chairs were filthy. Overall, I think the description could have been better. The pool should not close 630 pm, which did not give us a chance to swim and when we went up there it was packed. We could not get into the hot tub at all! We were only there for 2 days, but felt the overall management of the facility was not accommodating. Would not stay there again! Stay at the Diplomat.

Fantastic views and A plus apartment manager

Laure, the apartment manager went above and beyond to take care of us and the apartment during our stay. She was quick to respond to any issues, and was able to accommodate us when our flight was cancelled due to a snow storm and moved us to a similar unit. Highly recommend listing your apartment with her or renting from her.

Beautiful View and Great Location

Our stay was very pleasant. Laurie and her assistant Diana are great with communicating on any situation needed. The condo is clean as pictured, there is washer/dryer inside the unit, the location of the condo on the 16th floor is privately secluded, the building is secure, everyone was nice, you have all the stores near you even a little walking distance if you do not have a vehicle and the views are beautiful. I definitely recommend.

Best beach vacation ever

Spacious and well- appointed. Could listen to the waves at night without having to listen to partiers down below, too. Least sea life in the water swimming around my legs (I'm a 64 yo woman), no bugs at all, hardly and seagulls and fewest steps from property to water's edge. Just me and the waves, which is what I was after. We stayed the beginning of November and it was in the mid-80's with excellent water temperature. So, excellent accommodations by the most pleasant beach I've ever been at.

Excellent! Laure was great!

First of all, I have stayed at the Hyde before! It is right in the middle of Ft Lauderdale and Miami! The view is spectacular! Great beach right outside your door! The resort is clean, friendly, and perfect for a quite place to come home to after a day of running around. The pool is awesome as well. Food at the restaurants is excellent, although a little pricey. Laure, the apartment manager was great to work with. She really took care of us and responded immediately when we had questions. I hope to utilize her services in the future! Here's a hug from Iowa, Laure! ((HUGS))

Perfection!!! The view will take your breath away

In the words of my nine year old “This place is Awesome!!!!” We checked in and everything went smooth as glass. The first thing you notice walking in is the view the wrap around windows give you a truly breath taking view. We spent many hours on the balcony watching the waves roll in The property offers everything you could want. The heated pool felt great on the cool days and the hot tub melted all the world away. The beach service took care of us and made sure our time on the beach was spectacular. Both bedrooms where very comfortable but the master bedroom was the highlight of the condo waking up to the gorgeous view set the tone for the day. We can’t wait to return!!!!

Memorial Day weekend

Enjoyed everything about this residence! Condo was exactly as described. Very clean. The modern decor is perfect for the beach. Had everything we needed for the kitchen area. The wrap around balcony with beautiful views is the highlight of this condo. Owner communication was excellent as well. All fees were communicated upfront, no surprises. Valet service was exceptional. The beach chairs and towels provided with the room is the perfect added extra. We did use the ones provided in the condo as well, thank you. The only suggestion would be more towels and toiletries provided for bathrooms. Overall, was exceptional.
