I recently attended the Eras Tour in Miami and rented a property for my sister and friends. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate us. They provided a link for transportation options to the stadium and even offered to drive us if we encountered any issues getting there.

My husband, children, & I stay at the house & loved it! Everything was at the house you would need. The kids enjoyed the pool and all the creatures we found (iguanas and lizards lol.) Jim was super welcoming and informative when we arrived and we felt right at home. 10/10 would recommend and come back!

James was so responsive and the property was impeccably clean and great to crash at the end of a boisterous day with my kids. I cannot think of a single issue we had with the house the entire time we were there, and my kids were thrilled from the first moment we arrived. Full size washer and dryer were an extra plus for us since it was hot out, and the kids were swimming every day, so we did quite a bit of laundry while we were there. We will definitely be staying again!

The home was clean, well equipped and located in safe environment. We arrived and were immediately impressed with the interior. Once we walked the exterior of the property, we were even more impressed. The pool, deck and bar area were used every day of our stay. The landscaping and lawn care was second to none. It really felt like getaway to the tropics. Definitely one of our favorite vacations thus far!

This is a beautiful place to stay. The grounds are filled with tropical plants and lovely flowers. Inside is very clean and comfortable. They provide linens, towels, blankets and all kitchen necessities. The pool is nice, it’s 4ft deep and is ideal for relaxing. Tiki bar is nice touch. It is well lit and secure. I throughly enjoyed my stay.

This house is welcoming and very clean, with like new living room furniture. Backyard is very well cared for, with a pool, hot tub, bar, TV, and music make it very relaxing. We had an awesome time and would go back there if we are in Fort Lauderdale again. Owners are on site in their own duplex which is nice in case you need anything! Kids (ages 11 and 12) said it was a 10 plus plus plus vacation!! It was nice they left a bowl of snacks, bottled water, bag of ice and coffee which
Is so helpful after traveling all day.
The only change that would be nice is a king bed in one of the bedrooms. That’s a personal choice.

We stayed after a New York Trip for 1 week in this beautiful Garden Home. The house was very clean and all what you need is available. The kitchen is full equipped, the bathrooms offers you shower gel, shampoo and hand soap and also hair dryer, tooth paste and mouthwash. There are more than sufficient towels available. The beds are very comfortable. We enjoyed the garden, pool, whirlpool and bar, this is a paradise! The garden and pool area are equipped with mosquito repellents to feel free for your safety use, sun screen are also available. Jim and Denise are always welcome to you and they are very kindly, friendly and helpful hosts, any requests you have they will solve. We will come back! Thank you for being there!
