House was clean and well maintained. Enjoyed the backyard as it had lots of space. Short drive to the beach and able to walk to shops to get all of your groceries, etc. Property host was quick to respond to any questions or concerns.

This is well loved home! Plenty of space for hanging out, plenty of room to sleep and the pool was AMAZING for our family. We spent most of our time in the water as traffic is pretty heavy around this area. The Publix is so close! Made it easy to get food there and the kids didn’t have to leave the pool. Private bedroom in the back was great for grandparents. It would be nice to have a tv in the back private suite. We had a wonderful stay!!!!

We would have given this 4 stars (not 5 because the house itself needs some updates), but the pool heater was broken all but 1 day of our 6 day stay and I spent much of our stay trying to get the pool heater fixed.
The house exterior is great and would have been awesome IF the pool was a swimmable temperature. The interior is pretty good, nice use of space and kept clean, but could use some updates.
Unfortunate for us, the weather was chilly and the pool heater was broken all but 1 day (pool temp in the 60s), making the whole reason we booked this specific property (and spent the money for the exterior/pool) pointless. Not to mention the hours of my life during and post trip I've spent trying to get a fair resolution.
If the pool worked as planned, I would have given 4 stars, but with a broken pool heater this property is WILDLY overpriced.

The property was very good overall. The outdoor space we used extensively during all hours of the day and it was just excellent! The house was well appointed, had some good space, plenty of beds/options to host two families and we enjoyed the location. There was NO communication from Evolve Travel, who manages the property locally until 10 minutes prior to our check in time for the home which was maddening after we'd arrived in South Florida hours earlier. The only other negative was the outdoor grill had 2 of 4 burners working. Overall, great home, pool, amenities and location.

My kids loved this house😊
My family of six enjoyed staying in this home for five nights. The pool was perfect, there was plenty of space, the neighborhood was nice, and beds were comfortable. We would love to visit again sometime!

The cleanliness of the outside property was good. The inside could use a thorough deep cleaning. The outside garbages were overflowing full when we arrived. We ran out of toilet paper and paper towel, had to go buy our own. (As nothing was plump full when arrived) The bikes were in need of repair - contacted the manager of property and he did come and get handled next day. The neighborhood felt very safe and quiet. The heated pool was the most beautiful and clean. Overall our experience was good. Definitely needs a few tweaks. (Especially for the cost.) Would shop around a bit more next time.

Girls Trip/ Great price
I booked this home for a Momacation for my girlfriends and myself. The outdoor space is great. That is where we spent most of our time... in the pool. The location is great and a short ride to the market and mall. We felt safe and had everything we needed for our weekend getaway. However, the one bedroom with the low bed should be upgraded. The bed was soft just too low to the floor. All in all, I would book this place again.
PS. The contact person was great and helpful.

This house was fantastic! The pool was the perfect temperature and incredibly clean — the yard was absolutely beautiful with the landscaping, lighting, and multiple areas to sit/hang out. Beds were so comfortable with spacious rooms and closets. Bathrooms and linens were very clean. There were a ton of high quality JBL speakers provided as well which were so handy for all of the rooms. It was the perfect getaway!! Saving this listing for sure!

GREAT PROPERTY
This property is really a wonderful place, from the moment we entered till the time we closed the door for the last time, everything was great. Everything was sparkling clean upon our arrival, nothing was out of place. We really loved the size, so much room to roam around. The pool area so relaxing and quiet, a great neighborhood also. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen came with everything and more. Loved the fact I didn't have to bring my portable speakers, they had 5 for you to use, an added plus. We really didn't want to leave, so glad I booked 8 days. I will definitely be booking this property again in the near future.

The property was clean and had plenty of towels, etc for the bathrooms. The only down side was the hot tub wasn’t very hot and we weren’t able to turn it on and the pool needed cleaning. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay.

Average...could easily be better
This place is "fine" but could be so much nicer with a little money spent and a few upgrades.
Pros:
Backyard/Pool is nice
Private back yard
Quiet neighborhood
Close to beaches: about 2 miles
Beds were relatively comfortable
Cons: Lots of little things that added up
-Property manager communication was poor. Did not respond to two emails and one voice mail prior to our trip. Jonathan from "Property Angel" responded only to two emails during our stay that had a bit of urgency. Did answer one call from another member in our party.
-No matching tupperware - storing leftovers was a process
- Very low on all supplies. We had to buy paper towel, TP, ziplocs (many sizes), olive oil and more
-Grill- arrived to one empty propane tank thrown randomly in the hidden back/side yard, no brush to clean grill
-Large spot in hallway (perhaps a hole) plastered over but not painted, looks very bad. Similar on ceiling (patchwork). Fresh paint would make a big difference
- Outdoor seating section....two 2-person seats both very old, frayed, torn. Looked nasty and did not want to use them. Time to upgrade
- Pool "toys" were old and a few rafts deflated. We bought and left beach toys and buckets, boogie boards, two inner tubes, fishing poles and net (I would not expect poles and net to be there, but we left them)
- Hidden areas were filled with the junk and crap. No one apparently goes to the property to throw stuff away. One area is where all the pool equipment is, another weird storage cabinet along the house
-Landscaping- several old/dead/empty flower pots. Dead plants/empty flower beds. Many dead palm tree leaves.
Inside- couch and furniture are worn/old.
I recognize this is a rental. Owners don't need to pay "top dollar" for replacement items, but is as if no one besides a cleaning person has looked at this property in years.
After departing, I asked the property manager if he goes to the property. No response.
Would be very easy and not all that expensive to address nearly all these issues.

It was So easy to get in the house with the keypad.. it was the perfect spot because nun of the neighbors was to close to the house so you have complete privacy. They have 3 JBL speakers toys for the pool and the yard is just beautiful. At night the hole yard lights up. My only problem was that the spa wasnt working if they can get they back working it would be everything. But overall it's a nice spot clean and we had a blast and look forward to coming back!

Location couldn’t be more perfect. Refrigerator smelled like fish. House took a long time to cool off . Pool wasn’t clean and we chose not to use it. Three Bedroom fans did not work. One shower knob didn’t work so it was only cold water. The outside area was beautiful and house was decorated nicely. Just needs some things fixed.

Beautiful, comfortable home
Our family enjoyed our stay for 6 days at Christmas! The home was beautiful inside and out. We spent a lot of time outside around the pool on the outdoor patio. The 4 bedrooms and three bathrooms and large family room and kitchen made was perfect for our family. The home was clean and comfortable. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.

Great house
Spent Thanksgiving with my family. Home was cosy and so comfortable. Living room area had great seating so we could all be together. Kitchen well equipped. The best part was the patio/ pool area. Ate every meal outside. Great lightning for night swimming and grilling

The Resort
The house is very comfortable with plenty of gathering spaces in and out. We spent most of our time outside lounging by the pool enjoying the balmy Fort Lauderdale air. The location is ideal, close to shopping, restaurants and the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Property
This home was perfect! The design and decor was gorgeous. Well appointed, comfortable and inviting. We especially enjoyed being able to lounge on the incredible patio - the landscaping is out of this world. The kitchen and dining area eased the flow of conversation, and the speakers throughout the home kept the party going! I would highly recommend for families, couples traveling with other couples, or a friends' getaway. Jonathan was a tremendous host!
I guess my ONLY fries would be that there aren't TVs in all of the bedrooms. Everyone may not want to watch TV in their bedroom, but its a nice option to have… just in case.
We will definitely return!

Home away from home.
This property was just as amazing as the listing indicates and the pictures detail, plus more. The home was comfy, beautifully decorated, and spacious. The home amenities were in abundance and we lacked for absolutely nothing. The neighborhood is serene and quiet and we were just a 5 minute ride from the beach. The star of the home was definitely the pool area. The pool area is expertly landscaped with several seating options and the pool was clean and well maintained. My kids had an amazing time. They literally had to peeled from the pool at night. The pool area was beautifully lit at night and made for some wonderful night time eating (minus) the mosquitoes. Communication with property management was excellent. This was the perfect home away from home which made for a very memorable vacation. Top notch property!!
