We had a wonderful weekend at Vanessa ‘s house , the house was clean and very comfortable , exactly like the photos , very nice outside patio and yard , the neighborhood is charming and perfect for morning runs or biking and less than 15 min to the beach .. not sure about local restaurants we dined at the beach , plenty of big box stores and grocery stores close to the house , i am sure i will stay again on the next visit to FT Lauderdale … I must say that Vanessa was a great host quick to respond and double checking with me to see if i was comfortable and if i need any assistance, very nice touch too go with a wonderful place to enjoy a vacation…. Thank again
