Just book it. Forget Miami and stay in Ft. Lauderdale. We had a group of 11 and it was a great time.
Communication was great from the start and I was in constant contact with the host from beginning to end, they even allowed early check in.
This home had the best of everything. 15-20 minute walk or 5-10 minute cab to the beach and bars. A pool, BBQ, washer, dryer, just to name a few. Definitely worth it.
I do want to make it known that during our stay we broke a window outside while throwing a football around the pool area.
I notified the host immediately and I wanted to say thank you for the way you handled the situation. I know as a host this is a huge headache to deal with and I appreciated your patience and understanding as accidents do occur. We felt terrible and just glad we were able to resolve the issue.
