We stayed at Natalie's condo in Lauderdale by the Sea in January 2018. The condo's location is perfect, being right on the beach with a private gate and path to the beach. Also, it is close to the quaint upscale town of Lauderdale by the sea, walk of 3 blocks, but still private and quiet where we were. A parking pass was provided which was very helpful in a beach town. There is a Publix grocery just a block away, however we found the other local grocery stores to be more affordable. There is ample dining and shopping nearby. Other than the beach we chose to visit the Hugh Taylor Birch State Park where we rented bikes and enjoyed a live band at the restaurant. We also visited Secret Woods Nature Center for a lovely walk. Lastly we took the 2 hour tram ride through the Everglades National Park. We would highly recommend all of these fun outings. Our week at this condo was wonderful and we would definitely stay again.
