5 Bedroom Private Waterfront Villa with Pool and Dock
The Laura Ashley by the Sea is a 2,800 sq ft delightful hacienda outfitted in signature designer style. It's located on a canal in The Landings, one of Fort Lauderdale's signature upscale residential communities. Spacious and ideal for groups of up to 10, family and friends, this is a dream South Florida vacation home!
A wonderfully inviting open floor plan holds 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, all in that iconic Laura Ashley style that is comfortable and attractive: tasteful furnishings, decorator tile floors, crown moldings, and stylish fittings. The kitchen is well equipped and roomy, the family room has a flatscreen television and plush seating, and the pool and sundeck are never far away, with entries from the family room, both master bedrooms, and the dining room. Wireless Internet is included.
Speaking of bedrooms, this is one of our largest vacation homes, with room for everyone to spread out. The first master bedroom includes a flatscreen television, a king-size bed, and a master bathroom. On the opposite side of the house, you’ll find a second master bedroom also with a king-size bed and an adjoining bathroom. Three other bedrooms feature queen-size beds, and the fifth bedroom has 2 single-size beds that are perfect for children.
The backyard faces south and has wonderful sun from dawn to dusk. It's also situated at the intersection of two canals, which makes for a scenic view of boats gliding past. The pool is lovely, with a deck made for enjoying the sunshine and there's even a hammock strung between two palms, just like paradise is supposed to be! A sheltered alfresco dining area allows entertaining in comfort, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen has everything you need to cook in style. The private dock has its own lounge chairs, perfect for tranquil reflection and cozy companionship.
Fort Lauderdale needs no introduction, the incomparable restaurants, bars, and clubs of The Strip are where good times happen. For a romantic or elegant evening out, make sure to also visit Fort Lauderdale’s famous Las Olas Boulevard. Lastly, this home is only a 15-minute walk to relaxing Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, a quaint beach village with a more laid back feel. Beautiful sandy beaches are always within reach, along with all the relaxation and recreation opportunities of South Florida vacation living. You'll never want to return home!

We've vacationed in this area every year for the past 10 years, and this rental is the very best. The listing is very accurate and location is perfect. Excellent communication with property manager! We hope to use this location every year!
Everything was wonderful. It was clean, supplied enough amenities to get started, perfect location. There were a couple of hitches but the management company addressed these minor issues immediately. Great vacation!
We had plenty of room for our group of nine and the young people enjoyed the pool and fishing off the dock, as well as being a bike ride away from the beach. Lars, the property manager, was always super responsive prior and during of stay as he sent a repair man out to fix the hot water heater when notified. Thanks Lars
House was very clean. Loved sitting in the yard with family and having a private pool. Had a minor issue that was resolved within hours. Great response time and very attentive. If we have a chance to be in South Florida again will definitely stay. Thanks for adding to our incredible weekend.
Stayed at the house with 8 women - it was the perfect size for all of us. The pool and view were fantastic, very peaceful. The house was very clean, and the table was set when we arrived which made it look so welcoming. There were two living areas and of course 5 bedrooms. There was a starter pack of items such as shampoo and soap, laundry and dishwasher detergent. All my questions were answered within a few hours. The property was within walking distance to many places, but we also took Ubers, which were always within 2-3 min. away. We will definitely return to this house in the future.

Reviewer Comments:
My family and I stayed 2 months this winter at the home. I must say that the property management goup are so helpful and efficient. The house itself is a great layout but I feel the owner should do some upgrades on the house. The walls, baseboards and doors need a coat of paint because they are so dirty and scuffed up. The outside patio needs some repair work because there is a miss match of tiles and alot of broken tiles. The kitchen needed some more pots and utensils but I purchased them and then took them home with me. The view is so peaceful and the neighborhood is great.

Reviewer Comments:
It lacked a lot of stuff in the kitchen (it would also be nice to know in the description what type of coffee maker is present so guests can bring their own coffee since the place doesn't offer any), some of the pocket doors do not provide a lot of privacy (to bedroom OR shared bathroom). Beautiful house, great location, beautiful backyard but don't plan on eating at the house unless you bring your own kitchen stuff.

Our stay was great. we knew if there was a big problem, Lars was available via text/phone.
Gorgeous house located in a very good area near Fort Lauderdale by the Sea. The property has ample space for our group of 10. The views are amazing, and the pool is splendid. Would recommend and will be returning. The host responded and attended to our needs very quickly.
The property was great. Perfect for our family gathering. The host kept us informed with all the details we needed. The location is just beautiful. Property is very clean and well kept. We hope to come back again next year
Our family of seven enjoyed our stay as we celebrated my daughter’s graduation last weekend. We lazed in the pool and fished in the canal. The house was well equipped and very comfortable. The neighborhood was charming and the neighbors were friendly. Great stay!
The property was a nice location, easy 1 mile bike ride to the beach and fun to have 4 bikes available. Lots to do at Lauderdale by the Sea and also enjoyable to relax by the pool. We were disappointed at the cleanliness of the kitchen and the beds could use an update, but overall the house worked well for our group.
Great home close to the beach. Great view. Pool heater wasn't working and the dishwasher didn't totally clean and dry. Overall a great home for large families and would stay there again.

We loved this house!!!This house has the best layout...it is l-shaped with bedrooms on each end and easy access to the pool area from four living areas!! I loved that! The pool area is wide open with great views and the house is in a great location...close to the beach and lots of shopping.Although the pool area feels wide open, it is very protected from the wind and the pool gets nice and warm.There is a great quality washer and dryer, good water pressure and a second refrigerator.The property manager was so quick to respond and very kind with any questions I had. I wish all properties were managed this way.I would recommend to the manager...a working vacuum, the dishwasher didn’t work right for us and there were too few kitchen wash clothes and towels...but those were minor issues in the overall perfection of the rest of the place.
