Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are so glad you loved the location — being just minutes from Las Olas is one of our favorite things about the property. All the amazing restaurants, shops, and nightlife right at your fingertips! And there is truly nothing like watching the yachts glide by from the comfort of the house — it never gets old! The home is unique and huge so every guest has their own private bathroom and feels right at home, so it means a lot to hear that was appreciated. We hope to welcome you back to Fort Lauderdale soon!
Amazing place to stay everyone had comfortable queen and king beds everyone had their own bathroom with great warm water pressure. Pool table was a huge plus. So much fun watching the boats go by at the dock. It’s like a mini resort highly recommended. Most peaceful vacation

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your stay overall, and we do want to clarify a few points for future guests.
After checkout, the guest shared with us directly that they intended to leave a five-star review and that the two-star rating was submitted in error, which we appreciate them noting.
Regarding the layout: the home’s design includes intentional architectural features, such as a sunken living room and split-level transitions, created to enhance the sweeping New River views visible from nearly every room. The property offers over 100 feet of waterfront frontage, showcasing Fort Lauderdale’s iconic boat traffic and river activity.
While the home does include ground-level bedrooms, it is not fully handicapped-accessible in all areas, which is reflected in the listing description. The stepped and sunken entertainment spaces are a design element commonly found in waterfront homes of this style and era.
We’re pleased the guest enjoyed their stay and appreciate the opportunity to provide this clarification so future travelers can book with confidence.

The host was attentive but the house was not well maintained, had several safely issues and had undisclosed noise that mad the home anything but luxurious or tranquil, per the marketing of the house

Thank you for your feedback. We truly appreciate you acknowledging our attentiveness as hosts.
The home is fully licensed as a vacation rental with the City of Fort Lauderdale and undergoes regular city-sponsored inspections to ensure compliance with local safety standards.
The home is situated near Sailboat Bend, an iconic waterfront area known for the parade of mega yachts and passing boats along the New River. With drawbridges and active waterways nearby, there is occasional marine and bridge activity — something many guests consider a major highlight of this trophy location and part of its unique charm. We aim to represent the setting accurately in our listing and are always happy to answer location-related questions in advance to ensure it’s the right fit for each guest.
Such an amazing property! Tons of space. The views of the waterway made it even more spectacular. 14 women were part of the party, plenty of space for sleeping/getting ready and to have personal space but plenty of together space. We had hibachi come one night and it was beautiful celebration on the front patio by the waterway. So much outdoor seating and stunning views on the upper floor! Bonus was the pool and game area. You won’t be disappointed.
