Not the place for us

The property is in a much more "urban" area than expected. The street to get to the property had panhandlers throughout and homeless people on the street. My wife was uncomfortable with the area, so we never even went into the house. I tried to explain this to the owner but they all they could say was they didn't understand what I meant when I said the area was "sketchy". Basically had to eat the rental cost and find a different place to stay.

Quiet place to stay tucked away in a neighborhood but close enough for all the Miami tourist places we wanted to go. Perfect for our family of 4. We really appreciated the beach chairs/towels. The house is well furnished and we had everything we needed.Thanks for a lovely stay!

Not Happy about the area

Kate was very nice.The area was dirty but not the Property itself. My two main issues was no TV in the small room and the soap containers are used by all guests.I prefer individual soap.But again it was ok and I thought the price was a bit high but just needed a place for my family in a rush. Yes I will rent again if needed she was very understanding about my issue. Thanks Kate.

Hidden delight

This was a beautiful property right in the middle of a hallendale neighborhood. They have safety cameras and a long term resident nearby. The place was clean, bed comfortable and I felt like I really got away! The host was able to answer questions and give suggestions about local places. She was great. She suggested and I agree that you drive to Hollywood beach. It was worth the drive. I parked in the nature part so it cut down a little in the parking cost then you can either enjoy a more secluded beach or walkover on the cross road/walk to Hollywood beach and enjoy that atmosphere - it’s clean and has some restaurants and shops accessible. Family friendly too. She’s also dog friendly which was what first attracted me. Fenced in, lots of grass and some trees - perfect for a dog. Also if you drive at night it can get confusing so make sure it’s the correct street and drive almost all the way down to end of could de sac and you’ll see 2 open spaces. It was hard for me to initially see numbers at night. But it’s mainly families and quiet In that section. I would go back -I liked the feel of the place - open and clean and comfortable. Beaches aren’t In walking distance be prepared to drive. The drive wasn’t bad though worth it to go to Hollywood beach.

Overall Very Good

This property was overall the epitome of 4 out of 5. It was "very good." Not just fair, not awesome. The coffee maker was moldy, the exhaust fan vents were crusty with dust, the master bed made an inexplicable clunk when we laid down, and the build quality was all "landlord grade" with cheapest-option-from-Home Depot vibes. HOWEVER, that's really everything that was bad. The most important things were quite good. The beds and linens were perfectly clean. The lights and switches and appliances worked well. The kitchen was quite nice (not as "landlord grade" as the rest), the water was good, the showers had nice pressure and heat, the lighting was very good throughout, there was plenty of shampoo and TP, the instructions provided were clear, it was quiet and peaceful at night, the neighborhood was very nice and conveniently located, and check in and check out were perfect. Overall, I would highly recommend this place if you're looking to save some money, but you don't want to compromise on a safe, restful, fully functioning place. I would not recommend this place if you're expecting Sheraton-level polish. I think that's fair - we paid roughly half of that.

We stayed at this house last year, and even though, the weather was not as warm, these’re are plenty of things to do and to see around. House has everything that you need, and it is very clean. Plenty of good restaurants right on the water with the most gorgeous sunsets. We will be back.

Wonderful Clean

What a beautiful little retreat. I would definitely recommend. Beautifully simple and clean. Like others said when you first enter the neighborhood you might think it is sketchy, but don't judge a book by it's cover. There are several schools around, and it is a very quiet neighborhood, well mannered neighborhood. We will definitely stay again. Great hosts, very responsive and helpful. Great food places around, just a very short drive down to Hallandale beach. Couldn't ask for anything more!

About the host

Hosted by Kate & Pedro Lara

Host profile image
We are a fun couple who enjoy providing the best to our guests. I (Kate) am originally from Michigan and my husband Pedro is from Granada, Spain. We have lived in South Florida for 11 years and have 3 young children. We also enjoy traveling (we did it more before having kids) and know the importance of having a clean and inviting place to stay when away from home.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property because it is in a relaxed location near the beach and between TWO exciting cities with LOTS of things to do! This property provides so many options when it comes to location and its proximity to everything in the Miami and Fort Lauderdale metropolitan areas. It is located in a residential area to avoid too much hustle and bustle when it's time to unwind. We felt it was perfect for a wonderful vacation.

What makes this property unique

The location of this property is just perfect. You are close to everything without feeling too overwhelmed. The house is completely updated and modern. We also replaced all the windows and doors with high impact glass & doors.
