The pool and deck are very large and are shared by all ten units. Swim or just relax in the sun! It is heated to 82 degrees year round. The salt water is very mild. It has no chlorine or harsh chemicals. It doesn't sting your eyes, and it leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth.
All ten units share the large common backyard, which is entirely fenced in, creating a private vacation compound. Kids can run around freely with minimal supervision. The pool is protected by a child-resistant gate.
Beach gear: we provide beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, and a cooler.

I live in Europe but am very responsive to email. I have a full-time professional property manager in Fort Lauderdale who can respond to emergencies. You'll get the key in a lockbox.
This is a thoroughly residential neighborhood. It's not a "walk to the restaurants and bars" type of place. There is a large grocery store (Winn Dixie) 1/2 mile away.
South Florida is not a good place for public transportation. Please plan to rent a car or go by Uber/Lyft. I do not recommend local taxis.
(o) The pool, laundry room, and yard are shared by ten units..(o) The TV gets local channels only. It is a Smart TV, so you can access Netflix, HBO or other streaming services.(o) The pool does not have a shallow end. It ranges from 3.5 to 7 feet (1.1 to 2.2 meters) deep.(o) Not good for people with allergies. This is an old house and the unit is on the ground floor. Bugs are a constant battle in Florida. You may encounter some during your stay. We exterminate using traps, bait, sprays, and fumigation. There is bug spray on the top shelf in the kitchen cabinet furthest from the sink. If you need us to come and exterminate, we can send someone Monday through Saturday (Sundays are more difficult).
