Great updated place with a beautifully updated kitchen/living area. Has great views off the deck and from the living area. The pool area when you enter is also a great added bonus. Beds are super comfy, and the apartment was very clean overall. Very easy to find, and in a great location near Los Olas. Would def stay again.

Everything about staying at this airbnb was AWESOME! Excellent and fast communication with the host, flexibility to arrive early and stay later if needed/available. The location is perfect for those wanting walkability to the beach tucked in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. This home & property is preloaded for FUN! It’s clean, spacious- our family of 9 adults had plenty of room to sleep, recreate with the great variety of amenities at the house, eat around the table, and hang out together inside and outside. The pool, outdoor fire pit, pool table, ping pong table, tandem bike, beach umbrella and several beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, wheeled cart to haul beach supplies to the beach made our week in Ft Lauderdale fabulous! The beaches in Ft Lauderdale are gorgeous- clear, warm water. This airbnb made for a fantastic, fun family vacation in every way! Highly recommend!

On the B.E.A.C.H.-Beacfront Views-Balcony-Pool
Absolutely amazing stay at this Airbnb in Fort Lauderdale! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how spacious and clean the place was. We were a group of six, including three of us experiencing Florida for the first time, and this Airbnb couldn’t have made a better impression. The layout was perfect for a group, with plenty of room to relax, and the location was just unbeatable — right across from the beach, with incredible views. One of our favorite parts was the tiki bar downstairs — such a fun and convenient spot to hang out without having to go far. And, the Mahi Mahi fingers were sooo delicious. The valet service was also a great touch, making it super easy to come and go without any stress. We loved exploring the nearby restaurants and beachside spots, all just a short walk away. The host was fantastic — clear, friendly, and communicative every step of the way. The instructions were easy to follow, and everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. Ov

The house is well-appointed and has all the amenities you need. The pool is clean and has a salt-water system, which is terrific. Leo's team is very responsive and helpful and they don't have a long list of chores for you to do on checkout.

Lush Private Oasis! Huge heated pool, luxury!
Joanne’s place was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway in Fort Lauderdale. This home actually exceeds the amazing photos that our posted on this site. The neighborhood it’s located in is quiet, safe and very close to the beach where all of the action is. We had no problems with check-in. We did have a minor hiccup with a leak in the ceiling due to the high amount of rain we had on our first night. We explained all of this to Joanne and she was very chill and understanding. Overall, we had a blast and we will definitely book with her again once we come back!

Waterfront | Heated Pool | Hot Tub | Near Beaches
Such a cute house and peaceful backyard. The host allowed us to check in early which was very helpful because we arrived earlier than expected. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed. I loved all the decor in the house and the outside was my favorite with the pool and hot tub. Sitting out on the dock with a drink in hand during the sunset was picture perfect. We brought our dog, and she loved the outdoor area. The host response time was extremely fast when I had a few questions about the hot tub. I definitely would stay there again and wanted to stay an extra night but unfortunately it was booked.

Beach Nearby ~ Saltwater Pool ~ Open Floor Plan
We had a wonderful stay! The house is located in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood, perfect for relaxing. All the main attractions and shopping options were very easy to reach by car. The garden was truly a highlight — beautifully landscaped with a variety of plants and plenty of wildlife. Our kids especially loved discovering all the animals and had so much fun outdoors. The pool and the additional whirlpool were absolutely fantastic and made our stay even more enjoyable. We would be more than happy to come back anytime!

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 “Venice of America,” 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.
