We Had the pleasure of staying at Caravelle from Oct-Dec. The condo had everything you could want extremely comfortable, the kitchen had every utensil you could think of. The balcony over looking the canal was a delight.
From the condo we walked each day, in the morning down Las Olas for coffee at our favourite bakery then after lunch a walk to the beach. We could also get the hop on hop off trolley at the end of the street to the Mall for a $1.
It truly is a great place to stay thankyou Carolyn and Harry we will see you next year

Perfect vacation getaway!

My husband and I were looking for an ideally located vacation rental, and this was perfect! Easy access to the beach and to the shops, restaurants, and highway. Quick to get to airport. Condo is airy and cozy, but most importantly, it was clean. The kitchen appears small in the picture, but we thought it was great for fixing a quick lunch or making a filling dinner. We appreciated the use of the bikes, beach chairs, and patio. My husband got a kick out of seeing the lizards lounge poolside and the crabs poking their heads out of the ground!
Our hosts, Carolyn and Harry, greeted us at the door and gave us a tour. They were very warm and hospitable.
Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing vacation! It was difficult to say goodbye, but we look forward to making another trip in the next year!
We would recommend this property to any couple looking for a peaceful place to stay near the beach!

Owner's Response: Christina, thanks for your kind review. I am so happy that you had a good time and hope that we see you again. I was over cleaning yesterday and observed a Blue Heron having lunch on a land crab. It is an entertaining little place with our local critters. Hurry back.

We've spend 2 amazing holidays (mid April '08 & November '09) at the Caravelle and we can just recommend it further. Carolyn and Harry are great hosts and are always aimed to make your stay unforgetable. The condo is well kept, fully equiped with everything you need and the terrace is great to lay back and chill out while viewing the canal! It definitly convinced us to come back. Also the location is great to do any kind of outdoor activities. If it is a day trip to the Everglades or Miami, cruises along the ocean drive by bike or if you just want to go shopping and go for a great meal, everything is possible and your host are more then happy to assist. Thank you for making our stay always a stay to remember and we will definitely come back.

Wow! was our first impression, the pictures do not do it justice, a splendid apartment with wonderful views and a relaxing terrace, just right to enjoy a nice glass of wine.
Caroline provides everything you can wish for, my favourite were the beach chairs, what a lovely touch.
Apartment within walking distance of the beach and restauants, so nice to have a walk in the evening.
Please don't hesitate to book this lovely apartment, you will not be disappointed. Thank you from us Caroline for making us feel so welcome.
