This intimate beach retreat is a one story house with three separate guest apartments each with a tropical colored front door and just a few minutes stroll from the ocean! Safely hidden from the mood ruining madness and conventionality of a typical tourist-class hotel/motel these private guest apartments are located just off A1A at the end of Millionaire's row. Enjoy one of the most beautiful wide beaches in the entire area, with a view of the Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse. Spend the day under your beach umbrella (provided) and watch as para boarders fly high off the waves. Enjoy cocktails at the Tiki Bar, fresh fish from the fishing boats, a $40/hour massage therapy at the local spa..... this is your place! You'll find high-end furniture, designer stone kitchen, five star cleanliness and literally everything you could want including a huge dose of charm and value. Pick a papaya, shower outside in the tropical garden and nap in the hammock. Please us on You Tube ~~~youtube.com/watch?v=AaU

HIDDEN HAVEN!!!

shangrila Fort Lauderdale, FL
Review Submitted: October 6, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
I cannot even find the words to describe my stay at Walk on the Beach. We found this oasis through a friend who referred us to Betty the owner, now a dear friend. Betty was on-site when we arrived, working hard on her beautiful property. You feel like you have entered shangri-la. Just a peaceful beautiful place which you can tell every detail was cared for with love. For me it brought a much needed healing as I had recently lost my beloved mother to cancer. It was a retreat that brought calm and peace. All my stress ,melted away upon entering Walk on the Beach. Betty is a wealth if information for all the special little hidden places to go like The Galley and quaint waterfront restaurant for Breakfast and Sea Watch which looks out on the ocean for lunch. (I personally loved staying in the guest house as it was so quaint and comforting. We stayed in the 1 bedroom and I never wanted to leave the room. SO CLEAN AND SUCH ATTENTION TO DETAIL!! We will be keeping Betty busier then she's ever been as we hesitantly are sharing our new little home away from home with our friends. (We want to make sure she's not so booked out that we get shut out of our tropical haven ) :) We love Betty, Walk on the Beach and the many years to come that we will be revisiting our new special place. Thank you Betty for pouring your heart in to giving us such a special place to heal, laugh. have fun and be at peace! Love Sherry and Elvis.
Owner's Response: Thank you to Sherry and Elvis who pulled me out of the hot sun and Tropical backyard to SeaWatch for blackened grouper. The outside shower certainly came in handy! Even as a resident I still find it pretty cool to be able to walk into a restaurant with wet hair and sit outside. How fortunate to meet such precious people as Sherry and Elvis! Indeed we have not stopped talking since they were here! Elvis is a wealth of advanced internet operation intelligence and Sherry, well, I simply can't wait to see her again! Special people indeed.

A True Hidden Jewel

The Timmer Atlanta, GA
Review Submitted: September 24, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
This was my first time using Home Away and I did not know what to expect. I had travelled over 20 years in sales so I know a bit about staying out of town and being in a good or bad hotel/accomodation.

Well, this place is truly a hidden jewel. First, Betty Francis, the owner, is one of the most accomodating people you will ever meet. She helped me find places to go to for both meals as well as essentials. She is a first class hostess who anyone can consider a friend.

And secondly, the place itself is just neat as a pin with a lot of nice decor to go along with it. A lot of work and love has gone into making this a nice home away from home for either 3 days like me or even a whole month. The beach is a short walk away, there are places to walk or run and it is a safe and secure area. Trust me when I say this Guesthouse is truly a Florida Hidden Jewel!!!
Owner's Response: Tim is the jewel! I love the opportunity to make people happy when they travel. Thank you so much Tim for staying here and posting such a kind review. Am so glad you escaped to the beach!

Fabulous home away from home

Dr. Amy Fort Lauderdale, FL
Review Submitted: September 5, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Charmingly decorated, peaceful cottage with EVERY necessity supplied, from bedroom to kitchen. Owner is very accommodating and flexible, and keeps the cottages and yard meticulously clean and maintained. I am a physician who needed a place to stay for a month and I couldn't have asked for a more suitable location. And, as a woman staying here alone, I felt safe and was able to enjoy all the area amenities without apprehension. I especially enjoyed walking on the beach, jogging on A1A, and being close to many restaurants.
I highly recommend Walk on the Beach Guesthouse!
Owner's Response: What I should do is trade this rental for a face lift from Dr. Amy! What a delightful guest. She made my day when she said as soon as she walked in, she knew wanted to stay here. That is my goal! All three apartments are so special and different. Definitely not your typical beach rental. I have put a lot of expense into quality. Thank you Dr. Amy!

Welcoming, clean, comfortable, relaxing

1savvylady Cleveland, Ohio
Review Submitted: February 18, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
Just what I needed -- a spotlessly clean environment close to the beach where I could soak up the sun and enjoy the warmth of Florida in the winter. Betty is delightful, welcoming and sweet. No disappointments whatsoever! Plus, location, location, location!

Beach Lover's Delight

Jo & Larr Toronto Canada
Review Submitted: December 26, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2007
.My husband and I spent 2 months at Walk-on-the-Beach and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Betty the owner couldn't have been more welcoming and accommodated our every need. We enjoyed the easy access to the beach (one block) and spent many hours watching the kite boarders skidding across the water. The owner provided us with lounge chairs to make our time on the beach more comfortable. We stayed in the front apartment and had the advantage of a beautifully furnished screened in lanai where we ate our meals. The location is great, next to the 14th street bridge with lots of restaurants and shopping nearby. We would highly recommend Walk-on-the-beach, it is such a beautiful relaxing atmosphere and the perfect place to spend a vacation
