Our stay in Fort Lauderdale was amazing. The entire experience was perfect, communication with Shirley was done through email and she sent us every detail we could possibly need, and then Judy took very good care of us in Fort Lauderdale. Thank you Judy! Staying at Shirley’s was the perfect goodbye to Florida and the USA!
The place is great! If you are looking for a perfect place to relax peacefully and enjoy Fort Lauderdale, this is definitely your place. Let me cover the basic things you will find:
-Cleanliness. It was pristine.
-Communication. Both Sheryl and Judy are very much on top of everything, so you feel being taken care of at all times.
-Location. The place is located in a perfect neighborhood, it is exactly where I would buy a place in Fort Lauderdale (should I ever decide to…). Residential area, but close to shops and restaurants. You can walk to get your groceries, walk to a Café (I recommend Victoria Park Shoppes for a coffee at Brew Urban Café or a powerful juice at Jamba Juice) you can walk to eat out at a restaurant (Las Olas), you can walk to the beautiful Holiday Park to do some exercise. You can walk to the Riverwalk (a must if you ask me) and enjoy the water Trolley.
-Noise. You will hear the birds, not too bad, right? The street is very quiet, not too many cars go by. If you are lucky you will hear the sound of the beautiful police horse walking down the small street to the left of the cottage in the morning.
-Appliances. The cottage has everything, we didn’t use half of the things and I’m sure you won’t either.
-Space. There’s plenty of space. We had to work a bit so we were sitting comfortably in the sofa or at the table with the laptops. And in the morning and sunset you can have a drink in the patio and relax for a few minutes before going out.
-Internet. Works perfectly and is very fast. I usually need a bit more than just doing emails, I joined conference calls over the internet and did not have a single problem.
Summing up, if you are looking for a calm place to relax and enjoy a few days off work, I highly recommend Shirley’s place. If we decide to go back to Fort Lauderdale next year (there’s a beautiful tennis tournament we loved playing), we will definitely stay here again!
