12 women stayed together in the home and it was PERFECTION. Plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable. We loved the location, so easy to get everywhere we wanted to go and so easy with ubers and golfcarts. The pool as a great spot. Host was extremely responsive and easy to work with. Would absolutely stay again!

We had a such a nice time. There is lots of space in the house but we were outside most of the time. The heated pool was wonderful. I loved the tropical vibe in the yard. The beds are very comfortable. The house was very clean. It’s about a mile walk to the beach. Ubers were also quick to go anywhere you wanted. We had a great stay.

Great host, lackluster property

Let me start off by saying that Lance was a fantastic host. His communication was solid, did everything he said he would, etc. - all the good stuff you want in a host. If I had to describe this house in a nutshell, it is tired. It's beat up, lots of little things didn't work (ceiling fans, light bulbs, outlets), many cosmetic issues and just several things that make you say "why would you do that?". For example, one bedroom has white, opaque SHOWER CURTAINS as window treatments. In the same room, the ceiling fan didn't work and the bed was broken. Additionally, the couches in the living room are beat to death and the outdoor loungers have seen much better days. This is not a fault of theirs but it should be noted that the current view out the back yard is of a pile of rubble, as the house across the street was sold, torn down and a new home is being built. Again, not their fault, but construction noise did start at 7am on a Monday and continued all day for three days. Now to be fair, there were some positives: the location is great, the outdoor grill was brand new, all the appliances worked well and the place was SPARKLING CLEAN. I will not go as far as to say the photos are misleading, but they are certainly dated and do not show the house in its current condition.

House is in disrepair

I’m sure the property was very nice at some point, but that point was likely 10+ years ago. The property has two things going for it… number of bedrooms and location. That being said, my complaints are numerous: 1. The HVAC system is not capable of cooling the house to a comfortable temperature. All of the bedrooms were 80+ degrees at night. 2. Numerous doors were broken or missing doorknobs. One of the double doors leading out to the pool has a chain with padlock around the handles b/c that is the only way to keep them from swinging open. 3. The couch in the tv room is old, peeling, and broken. 4. The pool was dirty and cloudy. The pool bottom and plaster is peeled and cracked. It also appears the pool pump and equipment has not been serviced and did not appear to run once in the three days we were there. 5. The gate and fences around the yard are broken or breaking. 6. The swings on the back dock are broken and unstable and also appear to be carrying standing water in the canopy. 7. The pool furniture is very old, moldy, and in poor condition. 8. The backyard gazebo-style umbrellas is old and torn and poorly patched. 9. The putting green is not usable, as the pvc that serves as the holes extend out above the level of the green itself. 10. The ceiling in the kitchen is stained and dirty 11. Several of the beds appeared to be very old and uncomfortable Overall, it was a negative experience. These are not minor things. This house need to be rehab. The pictures are deceptive.

Great location!

Great Spring Break stay in a great location. Nice neighborhood. The house has so much room for the 14 of us who stayed. Several cozy gathering rooms to spread out or hang out together. Loved the outside area where you could hang at the pool, on the dock, or take a kayak ride in the canal. Communication with the owner was easy and they were very helpful with any questions.

Truly multi-family-sized home in super location.

Corner plot in a gorgeous neighborhood. Home really suited for bringing together large families - which worked for us since we had teens and 3 children under 7 all coming together - three families. Check-in was really easy, and owner (Lance) communicated early and often prior to our arrival. Also chatted with him and his wife (Danielle) a few times during their morning walks through the area. Some favorite things about the home: 1.) Good sized pool and plenty of loungers. 2.) Super family-sized dining table that could seat us all. 3.) Water toys to use in the canals - canoe/paddleboard. Things that could have been better: 1.) A house was being built on the opposite side of the canal and so for a few hours per day there was a little noise as they banged in pylons. (I imagine that is all complete now.)

Great house close to everything

The he house was amazing and Lance was great to communicate with the entire time. We had 12 guests total and the house had more than enough room for all of us. It was very spacious and we spent the majority of our time in the pool or on the deck. The location is perfect, minutes from the beach and minutes from downtown. Couldn’t be a better location. It rained pretty heavy for a few hours but the house has a giant cover/tent in the back yard near the pool so we sat out there for a little and stayed completely dry. It was also great to sit under the covering to get some shade during the sunny days too!

Family vacation

This house is in a great location. We had 10 adults and 6 kids under 6. We had plenty of room. Big plus was every bedroom had it's own bathroom. Pool was great and we used the paddle boards and kayak often. Lance was always quick to respond when we needed something. The beach was only about a 10 minute walk (even with kids). About the only complaint was we couldn't get the ice machine in the fridge to work. It was a wonderful vacation!!

Large house with great pool area with easy access to the beach, restaurants, and the main channel. Walk to the beach is about 10 to 12 minutes away along Los Olas Avenue. House is also located just a mile east of the great restaurants on Los Olas. Easy access via car, walking, or the on-site rentable golf cart. Excellent host who met us on arrival. Lance is a great host who is easy to talk to and quick to meet any needs. We had a great time Lance!!

Lance was the BEST. Was so responsive -- answered my questions before and during the stay IMMEDIATELY. The house is exactly as pictured, being so close to downtown Las Olas and the beach was amazing. The beds were surprisingly comfortable, there were instructions everywhere so I felt like everything was covered, and Lance was so accommodating and made sure everything was going well. He sent instructions before and during our stay for everything you could think about. I planned my sister's bachelorette party there with 15 girls (!!) and everyone had a great time. I would highly recommend and I hope to be back!
