About this property

Rio Vista 1BR w/ Pool, Minutes to Las Olas

Summary:
Fort Lauderdale Beach is about a 10-minute drive from this freshly updated 1-bedroom in Rio Vista, with Las Olas Boulevard's restaurants about 4 minutes away by car. A comfortable bed, full kitchen, fast WiFi with a workspace, assigned driveway parking and access to the building's outdoor pool make this easy for a couple or solo stay. Quiet and residential, minutes from downtown. Please see Other things to note before booking.

The Space:
Walk through the door of this freshly updated 1-bedroom in Fort Lauderdale's Rio Vista neighborhood and the first thing you notice is the light — clean white walls, gray wood floors, and a kitchen with new cabinetry that makes cooking in feel easy. This is a home for a couple or solo traveler who wants a real base: close enough to Las Olas Boulevard and downtown to go out every night, quiet enough on a residential street to come back to and actually rest.

After a day at Fort Lauderdale Beach, about a 10-minute drive east, come home to air conditioning, a full kitchen for cooking in instead of eating out every meal, and a dedicated workspace if you're mixing business with the trip. The building's outdoor pool is yours to use, and a driveway parking spot means you're not circling the block looking for street parking downtown.

Highlights
- Comfortable bed in a private bedroom
- Full kitchen with cookware, dishes and coffee maker
- Fast WiFi and a dedicated workspace
- Air-conditioned throughout
- TV
- Private entrance
- Outdoor pool shared with the building
- Assigned driveway parking
- Renovated bathroom with tub and shower

Guest Access:
You have your own private entrance, so there's no shared lobby to pass through on arrival. An assigned driveway parking space is included for your stay, no extra fee. The building's outdoor pool and sundeck are open for guests to use throughout your visit. Check-in is self-service, with instructions and your rental agreement sent before arrival so you can arrive on your own schedule.

The Neighborhood:
This 1-bedroom sits in Rio Vista, a quiet residential pocket of Fort Lauderdale just a few minutes from Las Olas Boulevard and downtown. Las Olas is about a 4-minute drive (or about a 27-minute walk) for the city's best-known dining and boutique strip, and Fort Lauderdale Beach is about a 10-minute drive for the sand and the A1A wave wall.

Our local picks:
- Las Olas Boulevard — about 4 minutes' drive, the city's main dining and gallery street
- Fort Lauderdale Beach — about 10 minutes' drive, the wide public beach with the signature wave wall
- Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale — about 4 minutes' drive, the New River promenade through downtown
- Boathouse at the Riverside — downtown, a longtime local favorite for waterfront dining
- Rivertail — downtown, a well-known spot for a nicer dinner out
- Brightline Fort Lauderdale — about a couple of minutes' drive, rail to Miami, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach and Orlando
- Hugh Taylor Birch State Park — about 13 minutes' drive, trails and lagoons across from the beach
- Wilton Drive — about 11 minutes' drive, a lively strip of restaurants and bars

Rio Vista itself is quiet and residential, with the energy of downtown and Las Olas just a short drive away.

Getting Around:
A car is useful here, though Las Olas and downtown are close enough for a quick drive or rideshare. Parking is an assigned driveway spot at the property. Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL) is about 13 minutes' drive, and Port Everglades cruise port is about 9 minutes' drive. Brightline's downtown Fort Lauderdale station, with service to Miami, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach and Orlando, is about a couple of minutes' drive or about a 24-minute walk.

- No smoking or parties permitted
- Guests must sign the rental agreement and check-in form before arrival - these are mandatory to confirm your reservation and receive access instructions

Great Experience

I came to Ft. Lauderdale for business and for my birthday and I enjoyed my stay. There was NO DRAMA and I got a lot of work done. My privacy was respected and the communication was ON POINT. It was a nice, cozy space for a bachelor like myself and I would definitely recommend and rebook!

Rustic retreat

My stay was over all, but not great. The place was nice and clean, but had a musty moldy odor. The ceiling above the bed has mold spots bleeding through the paint. Small nats flying from the bathroom drain. Killed 1 cockroach. Internet worked 90%. Seemed to be a hangout for young adults in the courtyard. Other than that, everything was good.

Serious black mold problem

This property had substantial visible black mold growing in a large portion of the ceiling. We contacted the host and did not hear back until the next day though VRBO was handing our concern in the interim. The host and VRBO responded the next day and agreed to reimburse our deposit 100% which was both the right thing to do and greatly appreciated. The host was apologetic and gracious under the circumstances though it is still surprising that they would allow their property to be listed and occupied without doing such a simple check beforehand. Coincidentally, a neighbour two doors down in the same multi-unit building who booked through another platform had the same issue so it would appear the entire building has a problem with mold. I would encourage the host to confirm that the mold problem has been professionally dealt with to reassure future guests before booking.
