Quiet street and neighborhood , easy 5 minutes walk to beach. 10 minutes to Lauderdal by the Sea walking on quiet street of El Mar. Nice quiet view of canal in backyard. Host was very communicative and place is spacious with two nice bathrooms and fully stocked kitchen with laundry available. Plenty of room for family of 4. The only thing I would change is that the pool was heated. Too cold to swim in during the winter.

Wonderful Stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The place was clean and everything worked. The backyard opens to the intracoastal so it was great just to drop a line and catch some nice Jack Crevalles and Blue Runners. The place is a few short minute walk to the LBTS pier and restaurants. Finally, the owner and the property manager were super responsive and helpful in all comms.

Older property, great location, AC doesn't cool
Pros: the view on the intercoastal waterway is beautiful. The location to Lauderdale-by-the-Sea is good. Easy walking distance to the beach and restaurants
Cons: The property is old. It looks like someone upgraded the bathrooms and floors but that is where the niceness ends. Even at that, the workmanship of the upgrades is poor. Main bath toilet did not flush. The AC did not cool. When we got there it was set at 79°. No biggie because I'm sure that they turn it up between rentals. However, even after turning it down, it did not cool. There was no air coming out of the vent in the master bedroom. After it running all night,we woke up to 77° . After taking showers in the morning, the temp went back up to 78°. Sabrina said she would have the AC guy come out to look at it between at 10a-2p. She contacted me around 1:30pm stating that the AC tech said it cooled fine. Unfortunately, it did not. I was then told that the AC would not cool any cooler than 73 degrees & that would be the case with any other property in south Florida. Not true as I have stayed at other properties in South Florida with no AC issues. We finally got it down to 74 degrees, nothing cooler. I asked what our other options were as we were not comfortable staying in a place that was not going to cool to our comfort level. She stated we could move to the other side of the duplex or get a refund. We opted for a refund. We were there less than 24 hours and she charged us for 2 nights. Overall, would not recommend.

Great property. Great location. The only issue we had was around the pool area area. We did end up catching small shards of glass in our feet in the pool area from something that must’ve been broken prior to our arrival.

Small improvements will make it a much better place to stay
PROs - property as described. We stayed with our daughter and 11 years granddaughter and it suited us well. 2 blocks to the beach. Nice patio with a beautiful calming view. Small pool shared with condo next door. Host responded to any of our questions right away
CONs - property was renovated but appliances, especially in the kitchen are very old - toaster, stove, coffee machine, etc.
Beach chairs and umbrella are awful, they are so old that you practically sit right on the sand.
Host did not allow for an early check in or late check out, even for an hour.
It was a first property that we have rented via VRBO that required us to send a load of various forms and documents , and provide $450.00 damage deposit even if we paid for a damage insurance. 2 weeks as we left and we are still waiting for the damage deposit to be returned.
We had a very unpleasant incident with a patio umbrella. When we checked in , patio umbrella was opened. We did not touch it, it stayed opened for the duration of our stay. One day before we had to leave was a strong wind and when we came back from a beach umbrella flew away from the table, it was on the ground, broken. We tried to close it but could not because we realized it was broken before and ropes where tied up.This is probably why it was opened in the first place, when we checked in. It also was not locked to a holder, the holder is rusty. Our host ordered a new umbrella right away but she also charged our damage insurance.

Winter Getaway
This property suited our expectations based on the online description. It was a quiet neighborhood with an easy walk to the beach and many restaurants. We didn’t even mind the iguanas along the canal watching us while at the duplex pool! We would consider a return trip.

It was cozy but a little outdated.
Read the reviews, it was exactly as reviewed. Some things were better than others. The pool and outside area is where we spent most of our time, which was great. The dishwasher was broken but we were told about that from the start. It wasn’t great doing all the dishes but it could be worse. The master bedroom is very warm. Overall very clean. The kitchen is very small but it worked. We think Lauderdale By The Sea was a fun area. It is small and has that old Floridian charm, enjoy.

Enjoyable stay
The duplex was nice sized and close walk to the beach and shops/restaurants. Any issues that came up, Sabrina answered and quickly fixed, even on Christmas Day!! My son enjoyed fishing from the dock daily; he brought his own rod and tackle. The beach was 3 blocks away; 4 beach towels, 3-4 chairs, and some buckets were provided. Overall a nice time.

Great Location and Pool View
This was a very lovely home that reminded me of old Florida charm! Everything was very clean and the pool was just lovely. It was so nice to swim and look at the canal. Very affordable for the location as the beach was just a few minutes away and the Lauderdale by the Sea area was just a few more minutes which made walking possible to all areas. I would definitely come back and stay there again! Sabrina was easy to reach and was kind to let us get a later check out date on the day of our departure.

Go for it!!!
Excellent location within easy walking distance of the pier, the beach, restaurants and shops.
Dean and John ( maintenance and landscaping) were lovely and could not do enough for us.
Found check in a little confusing as access was from 4 and we tried the code a few minutes prior, not realistic it was timed to release at 4. With no internet and no phone ( uk provider) we had to try and find free Wi-Fi and send email. This was stressful after a long and hot journey. I simple note on instructions to say it is time locked until 4 would be helpful. Accommodation is lovely and we enjoyed our time there

Stay at Lauderdale by the sea
Great location but house is need of repair and maintenance. Garbage disposal doesn’t work therefore sink is full dirty water. Landscaping was awful. Roof had a plastic tarp over it. Swimming pool light fell out into the water, however the water was nice and clean. Dispute all of this we still had a wonderful time.

Good location, close to everything
Great spot to bring the family and enjoy a short walk to everything southern Florida has to offer. Better than staying at a crowded condo complex. Pool was great and the central AC works. Overall a great place to stay.
The ceiling in the small bathroom was peeling and the AC seems to keep one bedroom a lot colder than the other. The dryer sounds like it's on its last legs but it still worked when we were there.

Would stay here again
We thoroughly enjoyed our two-week stay at this charming vacation property. We found the cottage spacious and welcoming. The location is perfect, walking distance to the beach, patios, shops and restaurants. The backyard view overlooking the quiet waterway is quite special. The pool and patio were clean and comfortable, the BBQ worked well. We had the place to ourselves as there were no renters in the other unit. The home is well equipped with everything you need; we particularly appreciated the beach towels, chairs and umbrellas provided. We had a problem with the dishwasher which was taken care of promptly. As mentioned by other reviewers, the property could use some updating. We were able to overlook some minor imperfections for a great overall experience.

Perfect Location!
We really enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect - 5 min walk to beach, 10 min walk to Lauderdale-by-the-Sea restaurants, bars, gelato etc. 6 miles (we rode our bikes) to Ft. Lauderdale Los Olas restaurants and river walk. Yet, totally quiet neighborhood and great view out back with the pool and canal. Sabrina, the property manager, was super responsive to our needs. When we got there, there was not enough silverware, towels, other kitchen items. I texted her and she ordered from Target and had then sent to us delivered that day. Note the TVs not smart. However, Sabrina brought us a DVD with streaming connection so we could watch Netflix (our account). So nice! The kitchen is pretty small with little storage but ok. A couple of improvements could make this a super place - the sofas are very uncomfortable - you can feel the bedframe (its a pullout) through the cushions. BBQ grill pretty old and fuel should be supplied. The washer/dryer work but are on last leg. 2nd bedroom bathroom functions fine but ceiling is peeling. I noted to Sabrina who said owner planned to repair. Again, we had great stay and would definitely return and recommend this property.

Small piece of heaven @ Lauderdale By the Sea
Everything was great and met our expectations as advertised. Everthing was clean and in place, and in working condition. Location is excellent as you are within walking distance to the beach and many great restaurants in the area, some being just a short drive or Uber/Lift service away, and it is located in a nice quiet community. We really enjoyed our stay and did not want to leave. I would definitely stay here again and higly recommend it .
