JackieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a blast at the house. The pool was lovely and all the surroundings - gardens, tiki bar etc were really beautiful. Lots of places to have space and privacy with our family. All the beach gear you would need as well. We especially loved being able to have a quick kayak around the canals. Thank you for a great stay!

Victoria Park Oasis*Private Pool*6 Adults, 4 Kids

CharlotteRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We stayed at Monica’s place while we were attending medical appointments for our young son in Miami and it was such a wonderful peaceful home-away-from-home to come back to after a long day. It was very clean, super-comfortable and everything had been thought of. I like to cook for my family and the kitchen was really well equipped with everything you could need - something I find quite rare in Airbnbs. The beds were very comfortable, the showers were hot and strong and there were plenty of little sitting nooks inside and out which I always really appreciate. The coffee bar was a great touch. The pool area was lovely and the trees and plants really gave an inside/outside feel which I loved. The neighbourhood seemed quiet and very safe - we enjoyed early morning walks to Holiday Park which is just a few blocks, very accessible and close to shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend and will definitely return. Thank you Monica!

The Bungalow on Wilton Drive. Huge Front Porch

TaraRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Derek’s place was one of the nicer places I’ve stayed. It was decorated very nice with adequate space. Bathrooms & Kitchen were immaculate! The neighborhood was very quaint, private and quiet. Walkable to some great restaurants. Bed’s were super comfy and the house was stocked with everything you could need. Check-in & out were a breeze. Derek checked in with me via text during my stay to see how check in was and if I needed anything upon my arrival & sent a nice text the evening before check-out with check out instructions and thanked me for staying. I would 100 % book again with Derek! Awesome house & host. -T. Crawford

We had a great stay at Rachel’s place. Travelled with my husband and toddler and everything we could have possibly needed was there. Convenience to the beach and restaurants made things so easy. Pool fence, floats, and beach wagon for my toddler was so helpful. House looks exactly as described in photos and Rachel communicated very promptly.

We really enjoyed our time in Pompano, our former home-away-from home, while staying in Paola and Justin’s beautiful house. The house was spotless, smelled fresh and had plenty of clean linens and towels. Great neighborhood, friendly neighbors. The hosts were helpful and responsive.

Modern Beach Lake-Front House in Miami !

CaroleRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Can’t say enough, good things about this house. Beautiful location, squeaky, clean throughout, plenty to do. Wasn’t sure about staying on a lake in Florida because of possibility of alligators. This lake is one of the cleanest lakes I’ve ever seen. We swam, we used their kayaks, and spent a whole day just floating out there. It is also a very quiet lake at least as long as we were there. Ran out of toilet paper and paper towels, and asked if we should go get some and within an hour, they brought them to us. Service was outstanding. If I ever go back to Miami, I am definitely coming back here.

Your guide to Fort Lauderdale

Introduction

Glitzy Miami and posh Palm Beach may buzz with celebrity sightings, but visitors more interested in relaxing in Southern Florida’s legendary sunshine gravitate to Fort Lauderdale in Broward County. There’s still a certain level of luxury to be found here — the waterfront mansions and mansion-sized yachts are proof of that — Fort Lauderdale is more laidback than its big-name neighbors.

The city’s 165 miles of waterways have earned it the nickname the ā€œVenice of America,ā€ and you’ll likely stay or dine along the water. Be sure to stroll the Riverwalk, located in a popular arts and culture district, and hop on the Water Taxi, which brings you from the beach to the trendy shops and restaurants of the Las Olas neighborhood.

While you could spend all your time sprawled out on the soft-sand beach, there are also historic homes, excellent museums, nature centers, and state parks within easy reach. And when the sun goes down, lively stretches of beach bars, dance clubs, and salty dives light up the night.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Fort Lauderdale

Fort Lauderdale’s busy season is between December and April, but a year-round average temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit means it’s always a good time to stay in one of the area’s vacation rentals. There are essentially two seasons in this subtropical destination. The wet season lasts from April through October and brings humid weather and temperatures in the high 80s, as well as occasional heavy rain showers and a chance of hurricanes. Mild winds and ocean breezes cool things off, but even the nights are hot, so you’ll want to pack light, loose clothing. In the dry season, expect daytime temperatures in the mid-70s; in December and January, you may even want a light jacket and a sweater, because low temperatures can dip to 60 degrees.


Top things to do in Fort Lauderdale

The beaches

Greater Fort Lauderdale boasts 23 miles of beautiful, wide, golden-sand beaches. In Fort Lauderdale proper, Fort Lauderdale Beach Park features a playground, volleyball and basketball courts, and picnic areas. Head north along the shore and you’ll reach popular Las Olas Beach and its bustling promenade lined with beach bars and souvenir shops. Continue along the promenade (or the shore) and you’ll hit calmer Fort Lauderdale Beach.

Boat tours

One of the best ways to experience Fort Lauderdale is on the water, whether it’s a canal tour through quiet residential waterways and past the mansions and private yachts of Millionaire’s Row, or a cruise up the New River where the city abruptly gives way to nature. You may even encounter the occasional manatee.

Everglades National Park

Everglades National Park is just over an hour’s drive southwest of Fort Lauderdale. Take a classic airboat tour through parts of the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States in search of wading birds and alligators.
