My wife and I and two children stayed here for two nights. Both the property and Jim are great. The pool and outdoor dining area are private and surrounded by vegetation. Monkeys occasionally show up. Jim loaned us four bikes which we used to tour Ft Lauderdale. The location's perfect; all amenities are within walking distance and the beach is about a 20 minute bike ride. We walked to the house from Port Everglades; it takes from 30 minutes to an hour depending on what end of the port your ship is at. If we come back to Fort Lauderdale we'll try to stay here again; we loved it!
