Pool table was great. Kayak was fun. Really only 1 bathroom. The bathroom in master bedroom is a small almost portable like toilet. Great communication and pretty good location. Outside furniture was totally unusable I believe due to the storm in the previous days. Ok for a 3 day stay.

Lots for kids to do.
We stayed for 2 nights after our cruise. Perfect to unwind and just relax. Plenty for the kids to do (ages 10 & 16). Wifi was great for me to even do some work before we headed home. Frank was a wonderful host and even checked in to see if anything was needed.

Great Getaway
Our family traveled to Fort Lauderdale for a judo tournament and extended our stay to spend a few days at the beach. Frank was a great host and his place was so much fun! He was very responsive to any questions we had and gave us some great restaurant recommendations. My boys loved the pool table, arcade games and shuffleboard. The condo was exactly as described and very clean. We kept forgetting yo pick up popcorn so we weren’t able to use the popcorn machine.

Great house! Plenty of room and amenities.Frank was a great host.
I was a little taken back when I learned that the owner of the property lived upstairs, however Frank was a great host and gave us all the privacy expected. The property was clean and comfortable on the inside however the back deck area could use some cleaning. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely stay again.

Ft. Lauderdale trip
Frank was a GREAT host. He texted a couple of days ahead to ask if we had any questions, he communicated about the check in process well, then checked in with us several times after check in. We were there over New Years with our young children. Frank kept in touch with us throughout New Year’s Eve to see when we would be back so he didn’t have music on too loud when we came home with our kids. He was over the top considerate! The house was exactly as pictured and a great location. Thanks for a great stay!

The place that has it all!
Franks place has everything you need, including a host who is accommodating, fun and easy to work with! The location is perfect, close to beaches, shopping and the airport. The house has so many activities within itself, not to mention the kayaks, which were so fun and relaxing to take out behind the house and explore. This is a little piece of paradise that's yours to come home to while visiting Fort Lauderdale. You will not regret staying at Frank's place!

Fun place, great location.
Frank’s place was awesome. The kids loved the pool table and dart board. Took the kayaks out out last night, wish we had earlier. Great views along the canal and in the river. Location of house was perfect. 15 min to Las Olas blvd, 20 to the beach, 25 to Hollywood beach and about 40 min to Miami. Frank was quick to respond to any questions I had, I highly recommend his place.
