The Dunes was an oustanding guesthouse! I was very pleased with my recent visit. The Staff was extremely nice and very attentive to details. Rooms were very spacious and super-clean and the grounds were beautiful and well-maintained. The jacuzzi and pool were heated just right and clean. The Dunes provided a great continental breakfast with lots of choices. Staff had greatt suggestions for things to do in the area and the location was perfect as I could walk to the beach.
I would highly recommend The Dunes if you are looking for a smalller resort with superb service.

My partner and I had a fantastic vacation at The Dunes. We had originally booked our stay at The New Zealand House however they messed up our reservations. We were very disappointed since we are frequent guests at The New Zealand House and had made our reservations two months in advance. So two days before we were to arrive in Ft. Lauderdale we had no where to stay. We called several resorts after 7:00 PM and all we got was voicemail until we called The Dunes. Their phones rollover to one of the staff's personal cell phone. It was a delight to speak to Michael who made our reservation and also offered us a great rate. The Dunes has a great location just a few blocks from the beach and a very short drive to all the action in Wilton Manors. When we arrived at the property we first noticed how lush and beautiful the tropical landscape was. Kevin checked us in and gave us a upgrade to a king suite overlooking the pool and spa. The suite was very large with a kitchenette and was very clean and comfy with a retro feel. The continental breakfast was quick and convenient and was enjoyed on the patio every morning over looking the tropical gardens. Kevin took really good care of us. He offered us beach towels and chairs to take to the beach everyday and did a great job with housekeeping. We meet two of the owners of The Dunes, Greg and Danny who are really great guys from the Midwest and they really made us feel very welcome. Derrick was another staff member who was very helpful and very hot looking. The Dunes is now the only place my partner and I will stay at while visiting Ft. Lauderdale.

I am sitting by the pool at The Dunes Guesthouse wondering how I missed this guesthouse as many times as I have visited Ft Lauderdale. The guesthouse where I normally stay could not accommodate me and reccomended The Dunes.
I have to say the Dunes price is $75 less per night and the room is larger with wonderful views of the gardens and pool. The management obviously takes great care in the cleanliness of the rooms. The linens had recently been replaced as they were flawless and the furnishings were newer and fit very nicely with Ft Lauderdales mid century modern architecture.
The staff was suprisingly friendly and provided a free laundry service. They even offered to give me a ride when I had some problems with my rental car.
The Dunes will be the guesthouse I call first when visiting Ft Lauderdale, why not save the money?

Me and my partner stay at the end of october, we faound that the place needs a bit of TLC, but perhaps thats part of the charm of the place.
It is a very nice and relax atmosphere, only ten rooms so not over crowded.
the guys always try to make your stance nice,and always willing to help. They even do the laundry for you for free!!!!!
I certantly will return soon
