We had a wonderfull stay in Fort Lauderdale, thanks to John's accomodation and all the useful information he gave us (beaches, restaurants, shopping places).
The place is very well located, near a Publix store (2 minutes drive) for the groceries.
It has everything you need to spend great time in Fort Lauderdale.
It's also very near of restaurant and beaches, and we evcen visited the everglades from there (2 hours to Flamingo, 1 hour and half to Shark Valley and loop road).
We were a family or four, and it was the perfect place for us.
I highly recommend it !
