Unfortunately there was jack hammering at the building next door. We were not able to sit on the lanai or at poolside between 8:30am & 3:30 pm. We did sit on the beach with headphones on. Carole stated that she was not aware of noise at the time or booking. Except for the noise, we had a wonderful vacation. The view from the condo was spectacular! Walking distance to the grocery store, water taxi and Lauderdale By The Sea center. Would rent again if there was no construction.
