Photos and Description of the Miami Beach vacation house rental
4 BEDROOMS, 4 BATHROOMS - SLEEPS 8

Secluded Pool area surrounded by lush palm fronds and private ficus hedge, this is an oasis of a home you will not soon forget. Custom Designer remodeled, it features breathtaking custom kitchen cabinetry with top-of-the-line Bosch appliances. Each stunningly bedroom has it's own custom designed bathroom and sleeps two people (for a total of 8). Located within walking distance of gorgeous Miami Beach, the newly-built boardwalk on the ocean, 3 blocks away from famed Arthur Godfrey Drive, and a short bike ride to famous Lincoln Road. South Beach is minutes away.

Exquisitely Built: Exquisitely built Modern, 2- story pool home by famed architect Lawrence Murray Dixon. Murray designed some of the most popular and famous hotels in Miami Beach. These include The Victor Hotel (1937), The Raleigh Hotel (1940), The Marlin (1939), The Tides Hotel (1936), The Senator (1939), and The Ritz Plaza Hotel (1940), to name a few. He was famous for his artistic designs in his floors, which are evident throughout the ground floor of this house.

Rare Find: Walking in to the soothing foyer, you step into the perfectly designed living room with romantic fireplace and custom-designed artistic floor design.

Seclusion, Privacy, and Space: Watch the pool from the family room, hear the peaceful sounds of the waterfall as you enjoy the space of this home. The state of the art kitchen is perfect for family meals, small get togethers, to entertain, or simply to enjoy for yourself. Close to everything in South Beach, this centrally located home is only 4 blocks to the ocean and Collins Ave, and a short 3 block walk to nearby shops and restaurants.

IMPORTANT!!!: EVERY PIECE OF INFORMATION YOU NEED TO MAKE A DECISION ABOUT THIS HOME IS HERE. Just take a few moments to read the following 5 sentences and all of your questions regarding pricing, availability, and security (regarding the validity of this rental) are here:

1. To check whether this villa is available for your dates simply look for the link above that says, 'CALENDAR', it is just below the photos at the very top of this page. Even if it's not available we may have other properties that are available. Just fill in the CONTACT THE MANAGER form to the upper right and you will be sent an immediate price quote by return email for either this, or other available properties.

2. To check the rates click on the link above, just below the photos, that says 'RATES'. Look for the time of the year you're interested in and bingo, you'll have your rates. NOTE: HOLIDAYS AND SPECIAL EVENTS (such as the WMC, boat show, Christmas, etc.) have higher rates. Please inquire.

3. I welcome your call, but before you do please fill out the form above and to the right that says 'CONTACT THE OWNER' in blue. You will receive an instant price quote by return email in about 10 minutes. Feel free to call me if you have any questions... I welcome hearing from you! (Harry 786-548-2673)

4. We use the Homeaway.com Reservation Manager system. What this means is complete security, safety, and peace of mind for this rental. Only a select few properties on Homeaway.com are allowed to use their Reservation Manger system - we have to pass a stringent profile review as well as having advertised on Homeaway.com for a significant length of time (we have been here since 2008). Since you will pay Homeaway.com directly, not us, you can be assured of the utmost in security for this transaction. This also legitimizes this rental like nothing else can.

5. To rent this home you simply fill in the 'Contact the Owner' form at the upper right and wait for my response which will give you an exact quote. If you want to rent it, simply answer that email from me and say, 'PLEASE SEND ME A PAYMENT LINK'. I will then generate a payment link directly from Homeaway.com and will send it to you. $1,000 is required to reserve it, and the balance is due 45 days prior to arrival.

About Harry Johnson Jr

I own this house as well as manage a number of other homes and condominiums here in the Miami Beach area. A Miami resident all my life, I love it here in Miami Beach because there is so much to do and it is like a world unto it's own compared to the rest of Miami. When you come I'll give you the rundown on all there is to do in the wonderful city.

Harry Johnson Jr purchased this house in 2004
Why Harry Johnson Jr chose Miami Beach

I originally purchased this property in 2004 to live here with my family. Since 2008 we decided to rent it to vacation travelers instead and it has been a wonderful experience.

What makes this house unique

Completely modern, updated kitchens and bathrooms, privacy, and location (only 5 blocks to Collins Ave) make this home very unique in all of Miami Beach.

Prime Location!

We had a fantastic long weekend in Miami. The home was located perfectly for us, just 1 minute from the beach, some great hotels & clubs, and easy to access nearby marinas. The home was nestled into a pretty little neighborhood away from the noise and traffic of the strip. The house was roomy and welcoming, and it had everything we needed to complete our vacation experience. The backyard pool was great for cooling off after a long day in the sun or at the beach. Harry (the owner) was easy to contact and work with when we had questions or needed advice on where to go and what to do in Miami. The property was nicely landscaped and well maintained, and the house met all of our expectations for being our "home base" in Miami.

Perfect For a Girls Weekend!

From the moment we arrived at the house we loved everything about our stay! The house had all of the basic necessities that a group of six girls needed. The owner met us and walked us through the house, explaining everything we needed to know. Additionally, he arranged for all of our groceries to be delivered prior to our arrival, and everything was in the fridge waiting for us. The best feature of the house is the amazing back yard and pool- a definite plus for a relaxing weekend. When we wanted to get out and explore, Collins Avenue (Fontainebleau, etc.) and all it has to offer was just a short 20 minute walk away (or 5 minute cab ride). Despite a slight hiccup with power outage (too many hairdryers on at once, as girls are known to do), I would give this house a five out of five rating.
Owner's Response: Thank you Katherine, it was a pleasure meeting you and everyone in your group. Hoping to see you again soon!

Wonderful Weekend

The house and grounds were lovely, the photos were accurate representations and the place looked even better in person. It was a perfect weekend stay for our group of 8 friends. We enjoyed time by the pool, cooking dinner parties and also some activities out in Miami Beach in the evenings. It was well-located and was easy to get around. The BEST surprise of the whole weekend, though, was the incredible massage chair. We all used it several times and it was really like getting a massage. Totally nice bonus to an already beautiful place!

We spent an excellent stay in the house. We found the house very well maintained and clean. It is very well located, close to the beach, Collins Av, and main avenues.
It is a stylish house, very nice, with modern equipment and amenities. The bathroooms, kitchen, rooms, all of them nicely decorated. The pool area is fantastic, with a superb swimming pool, we spent a great time there. There is a room in the backyard, very modern and excellent for a good rest. Harry, the owner, was excellent, he helped us a lot, gave a lot of recommendations and was always ready to make feel very confortable. Thank you Harry!. If you go to Miami, and you are looking a house with these characteristics, do not lose your time: this is the house for you. Super recommended!
Owner's Response: Nestor, it was such a pleasure having you, your wife, and your family over. I sincerely appreciate the nice comments you said about my home. It was refreshing to get a normal, nice, regular family stay in my home. I look forward to having you again. Make sure to ask for your 10% "second-stay" discount the next time you come.

Pleasantly surprised!

We were a little apprehensive to rent this home as we came a long way and noticed what seemed like a not so good review. I can say we were wonderfully surprised by all that this home offered. everything in the house was wonderfully new and in great condition. There was even brand new pool furniture. We couldn't have been happier about the house. Everything was provided like toilet paper, paper towels for the kitchen, plenty of super nice bath towels, soap for bathing, dish washing liquid, soap for the dishwasher, even salt, pepper, olive oil, coffee filters, and other nice touches like condimentos for preparing our food. All the appliances were new and made of stainless steel, a very nice feature and they looked super, just like in the photos. the location was excellent for us. We have a small boy and on our walks to the beach about 4 blocks away we would stop in a small park on the water for a nice stroll. The neighborhood is very quiet and 4 blocks away there are a nice variety of stores and shops for eating. We didn't walk to the main part of south beach as it was about 1 mile away. but one time we took taxi and it cost less than $10. The other times we just took car and took the owners advice to park in the many garages in the area (only $1/hr).

We certainly recommend this home to anyone wanting to enjoy the main part of Miami beach and found it convenient to everything including the airport. the owner was very attentive. He told us about all of the local places to go, where to get the best food at super, and nice places to visit as well as great restaurants. We would not consider anywhere else for our next visit.
Owner's Response: Thanks for the comments Francis, it was a pleasure having you. I'm glad you liked the restaurant recommendation I gave you... it's my favorite too... ;-)
