Beautiful home in a great location. Ruth is a fantastic hostess and person! She made us feel at home from day-one and throughout our week-long stay. The morning “challah and coffee” chats with Ruth were most enjoyable, and also the perfect moments to enjoy the gorgeous view of the patio/pool area facing the canal. Our room had everything we needed (mini fridge, our own bath, towels, TV with premium channels, beach towels and a comfortable bed). The location is ideal, right between the beach and downtown Ft. Lauderdale (restaurants, shops, gyms, etc.). One of the best aspects of this lovely AIRBNB is Ruth herself! She is very welcoming and warm, with useful suggestions and wonderful stories (about her prior life and adventures on a sailboat); we left feeling like family. Note, she is also willing to give you as much space and independence as you would like. Thank you so much Ruth!
