Blue Pearl
The house was very clean and kitchen was very well equipped with all the things we needed to make meals. The pool was wonderful and the house had a nice BBQ and fire pit area. The bathrooms were located in two of the bedrooms so it was a little inconvenient to access if someone was sleeping in that room. Overall lovely home for the cost.

Pool needs attention / different property manager
Instructions for checkin were not clear or well explained. Pool was very dirty when arrived - day 4 it got cleaned. Grill had no propane and when did get some the grill would not light. Property manager was not nice at all or very friendly AFTER of course they got our money. The house inside was very clean. Each room did have TVs, but not all worked as intended - one had no volume.

Great getaway
Property was just as described in listing. More than enough room for our family and in a good central area. Not close enough to walk to a beach but for the price you can not beat it in this area. The management for this property does well... everything was clean and orderly, the pool cleaner was there like clockwork, someone even came by to make sure the trash cans were at the curb when they needed to be and put back the next day

Great rental property!
Kids loved the pool…but, we did have to call for the pool people to come clean for us! So, we didn’t get to enjoy as much as we would of liked too! I can say they did come out to clean within a couple of hours. We would rent again!

Enjoyed our stay
Very nice home and outstanding pool and outside space. The owner, Val, was very quick to respond to questions and we enjoyed our vacation there. The home would be better if one of the bathrooms could be entered from the hall, but we needed all 4 bedrooms to sleep in and so the kids in the smallest bedroom were woken up by someone using the bathroom there. The stove and ice maker worked, but may be needing replacement as they had problems. The home could be 5 stars overall if the bathroom door could be changed to the hallway and repair or replace the stove and ice maker in the freezer.

Disappointing experience
We arrived Sunday night at the property and first thing we saw was an overflowing trash bin and additional bags of trash in the driveway. Trash collection was the next morning, so the cleaning staff could have easily put the trash out onto the street. Instead this was the first thing we had to do. The house was not very clean: Blinds were dusty, the oven was dirty, walls, sofas and the pool chairs were full of stains. We even found splinters of glass on the living room floor. In some places dust must have accumulated over months. (they charge 280 $ for cleaning the house!). The first morning we wanted to cut some fruit - all the cutting boards were black with mold. We therefore reached out to the host, also on other issues, like constantly flickering lights and a faucet in the master bathroom almost falling of the wall. We NEVER got an answer. We habe been renting houses in the Fort Lauderdale area for more than 20 years. Houses always were very nice, meticulously clean and hosts very helpful. This was the most expensive house we have rented so far and the first time we had a really disappointing experience. We give two stars because the pool ist nice and big, some of the appliances in the kitchen were new and the decor of the bedrooms is nice. But overall this house needs a lot more attention to the details.

Nice property. Little tight for our group but weather was nice so we utilized the patio area. The pool was wonderful. Used all day long. Bathroom situation was rough. Both are located in bedrooms. A few things needed attention but we enjoyed our stay.

The home was beautifully decorated and the heated pool was fabulous!
Everything was great until we found bed bugs in one of the guest bedrooms on day 2 of our stay. They came the next day to treat it but not only did we not have access to that guest room for 2 days, it may our stay uncomfortable after that for fearing the other rooms may also be infested. The property did their best to address all of our complaints and concerns. The home is very pretty and easy access to restaurants and shops. We didn’t need to go to the beach because the pool was the absolute highlight of the home. The pool is large, deep, clean, and heated. The vegetation and high fence around the home made it private with no neighbors able to see in. I would absolutely stay again minus the bedbugs next time of course.

Adorable little house for a family!
The interior finishings and cleanliness, the pool, BBQ, etc were all great. Very cute little place. Pompano Beach was nice. Chris who came to help us when the alarm went off in the middle of the night was great; nice, personable, patient, even keel, helpful. We were a bit unsure of the neighbourhood (safety), but didn’t have any issues.

maison très agréable et bien équipée mais ACCUEIL NUL
quand nous sommes arrivés, la maison n'était pas prête : vaisselle sale et moisie dans l'évier, ménage non fait, draps non changés, poubelles des salles de bains pleines, poubelle extérieure regorgeant d'ordures anciennes nauséabondes, détritus autour de la piscine, piscine non chauffée alors que nous l'avions demandé. Suite à notre appel à l'agence, deux femmes de ménage sont intervenues, une équipe technique est intervenue la matinée du lendemain pour réparer le chauffage de la piscine, nous avons ramassé les détritus autour de la piscine. Nous avons été très déçus par l'arrivée, l'agence nous a donné à titre de dédommagement un bon de 100 dollars à utiliser dans un restaurant. Pas possible d'avoir une table de 8 mais 2 tables de 4 sans être sûrs que les deux tables soient côte à côte….et pas de réservation possible… Le dédommagement n'est pas à la hauteur du préjudice subi, aussi nous demandons un geste supplémentaire. La maison est très agréable et facile à vivre et bien équipée, les abords sont très agréables également, il faut juste que l'agence en charge de la gestion du bien fasse son boulot correctement.
