We visited Ft. Lauderdale two years ago to run the A1A Half Marathon and paid an arm and a leg for a tiny hotel room near the finish line. This year, we returned to Ft. Lauderdale for the race, but found Alan’s place on AirBnB. Though it wasn’t walking distance to the beach (which we knew from Alan’s listing), the cost was so much more reasonable, and Uber rides around town were typically less than $10 to any of our destinations. There were some dining options that were about a half mile walk from Luna Sea. Alan’s place also offered a full kitchen, living area, and bedroom, in addition to an air mattress for the 3rd person in our party. We saved a ton of money and were well cared for by Alan, who was an attentive and thoughtful host.
