Some houses ease you in. This one opens up all at once — three stories of clean lines and glass, a main level that runs kitchen-to-living-room without a wall in the way, and a pool waiting just past the sliders. Palm Court sits in Victoria Park, the quiet, tree-lined grid tucked between downtown Fort Lauderdale and the ocean — close enough to walk to dinner, far enough that mornings start slow. The main floor is where everyone ends up. The kitchen is fully equipped and built around a long island with bar seating, so one person can cook while the rest hover with a coffee — there's a little coffee bar set up for exactly that. Dining for six sits just off the kitchen, and the living room picks up from there with deep, comfortable seating and enough room that nobody's negotiating for a spot. A dedicated laundry room quietly handles the practical side of a longer stay. Outside is the whole point. The pool sits in a paver-lined yard framed by palms and privacy walls, with deck space for towels, loungers, and a long afternoon of nothing in particular. The BBQ grill is a few steps away for burgers after a beach day, and there's room to set up a game of giant Jenga on the lawn when the group gets competitive. Upstairs, a balcony with a full outdoor sofa offers the quieter version — coffee at eye level with the palm tops, and the downtown skyline glowing off in the distance once the sun drops. Sleeping arrangements are about as painless as it gets: four bedrooms, four attached full baths, no one sharing. Three of the bedrooms are anchored by king beds with private ensuites — walk-in showers, clean marble, and one with a freestanding soaking tub for the end of a long day. The fourth is the room the kids will call first: two twin-over-twin bunks sleeping four, with a full bath of its own. Ten guests, four bathrooms, and a layout that spreads people across three floors when they want space. The neighborhood earns its keep. Las Olas Boulevard — galleries, boutiques, and some of the best dining in the city — is under a mile south, an easy walk or a two-minute drive. Holiday Park is even closer, a few blocks up, with tennis courts, ball fields, and shaded paths for a morning run. Downtown and the Riverwalk are about ten minutes on foot or five by car, with the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, the Museum of Discovery and Science, and the water taxi dock all clustered nearby. Fort Lauderdale Beach and Las Olas Beach are a short five-to-ten-minute drive east, and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park adds mangrove trails and a stretch of quieter sand just past them. Bonnet House Museum & Gardens makes for a good slow morning, and there's a grocery run half a mile away when the cooler needs restocking. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International is roughly fifteen minutes out, which makes the whole trip easier on both ends. Traveling with a bigger group? The home next door is its twin, and the two can be booked together for twenty guests across eight bedrooms. AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. Take a ride on Fort Lauderdale’s Water Taxi and explore canals and inland waterways to see for yourself why the city earned its nickname, “Venice of America”. If you need another reason to spend your time outdoors, the city’s famous waterfront promenade along the sandy Atlantic coastline is one of the area’s most alluring draws. From boating and windsurfing to snorkeling and deep-sea fishing, there’s never a dull moment here. This is just as true in town where party bikes and foodie tours along Los Olas Blvd invite visitors to get a taste (and sip) of the best of the area’s culinary and bar scene. Cheers!
