Excellent position

The property was in an excellent location. Ther were a number of issues- in the master bedroom the wardrobe doors ( plastic) were damaged and prone to falling off. The sliding doors in the second bedroom were difficult to close and required lubricating. There were only four sun beds for the 2 properties, one of which was in poor condition. After checking out a claim was made against insurance for 6 stained towels- we had washed all the used towels on the day before we left and only the towels we used on departure day were unwashed.Whilst the pool deck was fine for adults we would not recommend it for children as there was no fencing to the inland waterway.

TLC

Little skeptical when we drove up the front of the property needs a bit of TLC. Now I can see why there were no pictures in your ad. The house is 95% updated inside. The sliding door is impossible to open and you couldn’t open it anyway, because it doesn’t have a screenscreen, so we were glad

Everything was as advertised. Sabrina was there for all calls and emails. The property/house was everything as advertised. Extremely clean and beautiful. Location to everything we needed was a short walk. Will 100% be a returning customer for stays at 1 of her properties! Thanks again Sabrina for everything.

Pool + walk to beach = perfection

Our family of 3 loved this cozy duplex with its modern finishes, comfortable beds and well-equipped kitchen. We walked to the beach every day (sometimes more than once), and we enjoyed cooling off/relaxing in the canal-view pool between beach trips and other excursions. The house sits in a quiet neighborhood that’s within walking distance of lots of great restaurants and a short drive to shops and grocery stores. Check-in and check-out were a breeze, and hosts kept us informed of everything we needed to know. Would definitely stay again!

This was our first visit to Fort Lauderdale. The Cozy Duplex was a great location. Short walk to the beach and downtown. Quiet area. Excellent place for boat owners. The canal was a beautiful view. Sabrina was an excellent host. She is always available and accommodating!

Girls get a way

This was a nice home and would have gave it a 5 star if it wasnt for the pool. We couldn't swim in it for three days, and only staying 4. and the pool was the main reason we got it. My stay was then shortened,as i received some horific news that my son and 3 other's had been murdered. Was really bummed about spending that kind of money, and never got to enjoy the pool. No compinsation or anything. The pool was why we wanted this home.

Perfection!

This property was perfect! The duplex itself was beautiful! The pool and being on the end of the canal made the views breathtaking and the location was so close to everything we wanted. Sabrina was quick to get back to us with any issues that we had. It was a fabulous vacation!

Terrific Property - Great Location

Property description is spot on. Location is great - very close to the beach, but not so close that you have the foot traffic on your doorstep. Very responsive and pleasant management. Highly recommend.

Enjoyable Stay

We were very comfortable in this vacation rental. Recent upgrades were nice, parking was easy, pool was great, and the location was wonderful. The area is quiet, and we really enjoyed the closeness to the beach and to downtown Lauderdale by the Sea. Also, it's a short drive to Fort Lauderdale and nearby parks, museums, etc.

Two week stay and first time using VRBO!

We have vacationed in LBTS for years (as my husband was raised here) usually on El Mar. Agree with previous postings regarding this property/location. The backyard was the HIT here.... Just Gorgeous. Sabrina was awesome...Some tiny recommendations for improvement to get five star review: Replace shower curtain in Master bath as it was ripped Replace the missing toilet paper roller in second bath Replace missing light bulbs Label remote for fan/ceiling light over dining table Overall, our stay was WONDERFUL....It was nice to spread out in a home. We meet the nicest neighbors from Wisconsin, Sweden and Buffalo....LBTS, itself, is small and walkable to shops and restaurants. That is why we prefer to stay here.
