I absolutely loved this place. The room was sooo cute (we had one of the "apartments") and it was spotlessly clean, I didn't even see one ant in there which is rare in florida. It's 2 minutes from the beach, 10 minutes from the bars, you can use any of the pools on their properties... they have the cutest little... More

We had a great stay at the end of November 2011 but this was mainly because we were upgraded to a one bedroom ocean view suite after complaining about our first room which was a Tropics DLX queen room.. The first room offered to us on arrival having pre-booked over the internet about a week before, was simply not up... More

On Sept. 7th I booked two rooms for 12/15/11-12/19/11. Based on Heidi's suggestion I booked Units 114 and 115 with an adjoining door and according to Heidi, these two rooms had a great view of the beach. She said because I was booking so early I really had my pick of rooms. Two days prior to arriving I sent an... More

An older place (it even had the faded lines of a shuffleboard, popular in the 1950's) surrounded by expensive, new high rise hotels and condos. The room was comfortable, clean and inexpensive considering the place is a half block from the ocean beach, has free parking, and is reasonably close (10 minute walk) to restaurants and clubs, but is quiet....

We booked this over the phone and once we arrived, we would have cancelled except that we had already reserved and our credit card was charged. The rooms are not very clean (I was afraid to take a shower). The room was very small (doors open into each other, and if you're on the toilet, the bathroom door is pressing... More

Staff was super nice! We stayed here last minute and were worried about hearing some neagtive things, but it was so cute! And SO close to the nightlife and they also have free parking. The pool was really dirty, so I was glad we were not here to swim, but other than that, the room was clean and spacious and... More

Came down Oct 8th for three day and again Oct 15th for three days, Because of the people that run it and where it's located with just a short stroll to my favorite beach! I tried something this trip from Tucson, I wanted to know if I can do without a car rental, I can! With restaurants along A1A and... More

I organized a staff retreat for Fort Lauderdale and had everyone stay at this resort. It was fantastic. The staff were extremely kind and flexible and worked hard to accommodate all the altering reservations I made. The facility itself worked well for a large group of people - there was a tiki hut off the swimming area that allowed us... More
