The most wonderful part of this property is the location. It is nestled in a nice, quiet neighborhood and if you choose to walk around (you absolutely should), you are met with beautiful properties and gorgeous flora and fauna to enliven your stroll. Walking a short distance along the gravel path next to a nearby canal, you will arrive at the park from which the area gets its name. It is small but a lovely place to spend an afternoon picnicking or reading amongst beautiful nature next to the water. Go a little further (it took us less than half an hour from the front doorstep), and you will find yourself in downtown Ft. Lauderdale (and the famed Las Olas Boulevard where lots of shops, bars & restaurants abound). We were lucky enough to be able to enjoy the 34th Annual Las Olas Art Fair the weekend that we were in town.
We were only in town for a quick getaway weekend to visit my sister and her family. We were happy that we found Gaby's place to stay. I would say that it was a great value for what we paid. It is part of a duplex so understand that you will have a neighbor (Gaby did a great job separating the places with fencing or foliage though & it felt like a standalone place). There were two parking spots, which is nice. There was also self check-in, which was a nice, convenient surprise (no worries about when you get in).
The description of the property pretty much details everything out. The amenities cover the basics: toilet paper, towels, tubes of shampoo/conditioner, dishwashing soap & soap pacs for the dishwasher, bar soaps for the bathroom, iron (but we couldn't find an ironing board), and hair dryer. You will need to get your own Q-tips, cotton balls, body wash, hand soap, facial tissues and the like if you prefer/use such items. There were no luggage racks provided but the chairs and desks in the rooms could be used for this purpose (this is just a nice-to-have when travelling). We were thrilled with the amount of storage and hangers available for our use. Beach towels were provided, which is a nice, thoughtful addition. The decor is stylish and the space cozy--most perfect for a couple or perhaps a small family. The TV has Netflix for your viewing pleasure. The outdoor space was beautiful and inviting with nice, private fencing and the faux torch lights at night (though we didn't get to enjoy it during our stay).
The kitchen was cute and small but covered the basics: microwave, dishwasher, stovetop, small oven, flatware, plates, glasses, mugs, etc. We were surprised to find no ice or ice trays in the freezer, but I suppose that may not be necessary for everyone.
There are motion security lights on the outside of the property. This is great from a security standpoint, and we definitely appreciated this feature. However, if you are a light sleeper like me, the lights are very bright and hopefully they won't go off all night like they did during our stay.
Communication was quick and friendly. I'm sure if I had reached out to Gaby, she would have been responsive.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay and hope that this review helps and you enjoy your stay here too!
