This whole property, which is located in a beautiful area of Fort Lauderdale with many horse farms and a beautiful park nearby, was absolutely perfect. From its location (just off 595, so we didn’t ever have to pay tolls), to the property itself made this a wonderful experience for all of us. There is a grocery store and Walmart within a mile of the property, and it was so easy to get to anywhere. We had to go to the Convention Center every morning, and it was only about a 25 minute easy drive and 15 min to the airport.
The property itself is stunning. It is so spacious that I feel like even after a week I didn’t get to enjoy it all! The pool is so large and inviting, the lush landscaping so well taken care of...the pictures just don’t do it justice. To look out in the mornings and see the beautiful winding waterway and the bridge...it was priceless. I have just gone this spring to Giverney in France, and this backyard area reminded me so much of Monet’s gardens where he did his best work. I could have spent days just looking at all the trees and the reflections in the water.
The house is just as amazing as the landscaping. Super high ceilings, long hallways, beautiful decorations...it truly is like living for a week in a fantasy house. It was super clean and felt very lush. This house had everything...we never felt like we couldn’t find anything because it was so well organized. It’s obviously a home that people can come to and enjoy time with friends or just relax with their family.
We loved the safe feeling we had here and didn’t feel uncomfortable at all at night. Very peaceful and very quiet.
We stayed here with another family, so we had a large group....10 in all plus a baby. It worked fine because my 12 year old son loved having the bar room to himself. Everyone else had places to stay and the overseer even let us borrow a super nice air mattress. We were all perfectly comfortable, even with my friend just having had a baby 2 months ago! Never heard a peep out of him in this huge quiet house!
I can’t thank Guierrmo enough for sharing this home with us. We will never forget our vacation here. The sign on the outside shower said it best...”Just another day in Paradise!” And it was sooo right.
