The Start. My partner and I recently stayed at a modern 1b/1b Air B&B property located in Wilton Manor, Florida. Our reservation was somewhat unique in that it had two firsts: our first Air B&B rental and the first guests to stay in the property.
The Reservation. Check in was Tuesday December 31, 2019 and check out was Saturday January 04, 2020. We wanted to leave the cold weather of New Jersey and celebrate the New Year in a warm, tropical, friendly location. As soon as we booked the reservation, we got the standard automatic communication from Air B&B confirming our stay. What impressed me was the one of the owners, Gene, started communicating with us immediately.
The Communication. You will receive a Full Itinerary as your check in date gets closer. It will show you all the details you need to know for your stay. You will also get a Property Guidebook. It has even more fun information like arrival information, facts about the accommodation, safety into & rules, your local area guide and departure information.
The Arrival. The property was easy to find. There was designated parking for the unit and plenty of guest parking for the building. Gaining entry to the property was easy: through keyless entry by way of a four digit code that was provided by the host.
The Property. The pictures posted did not do the property justice. The atmosphere gives you a first impression that you are in a 5-star luxury space with all the most recent modern technology and convenience that one would want. No detail was left unthought of. The living, dining and kitchen areas were more than large enough to accommodate two men who are over six feet tall.
The bathroom was in line with the rest of the rooms in the home. The furniture and fixtures were all modern and the shower has dual shower heads that leave you never wanting to escape into the real world. The bedroom large and again had all the amenities that one would want. The king size bed was comfortable and the bedding was soft and comfortable. There were built-in closets in both the bedroom and small hallway that leads you from the bathroom into the bedroom and plenty of storage to unpack your bags and make yourself at home.
The yard was professional manicured and the pool was definitely heated, enough to be able to immerse yourself and not have the initial temperate shock that you would experience from a non-heated pool.
The Location. The property is perfectly located in the NE part of Wilton Manors, FL. That said, you can walk to all the local popular restaurants, shops, and entertainment that is found on the main street of the city. By all means, you can Uber/Lyft for a small fare but everything is close enough that you feet can do the trick of getting you to all the hot spots.
All in all in was a great stay and we will definitely be back when we return to Wilton Manors, Florida.
