LITTLE SLICE OF HEAVEN!

What people say about "location, location, location" is so true! This beach house is the perfect place whether visiting for a week or two months! Just 2 blocks to beautiful Pompano Beach, and within close walking distance of great restaurants, Publix grocery, hair, nails, barbershop and home-made ice cream! No car necessary, but if you have one there are alot of fun things to do during your visit. Really, you'd never know you're so close to everything because the house is very private and quiet! Our dog loved the fenced-in yard. It's overgrown with beautiful vines and flowers so if you're looking for privacy by the pool and hot tub this is the place! And speaking of the dog - there are wonderful empty lots only a block away for daily visits! The house is very clean and all the amenities promised are provided for you.
Of all our past rentals, this was the most well-prepared and well-stocked with necessities for guests from bathroom to kitchen. Natalie did a walk-thru with us the first day to make us feel welcome, which we did immediately, and then left us to enjoy our stay. Any questions were quickly answered via e-mail or phone and she has people close by just in case the house needs something during the visit.
We looked in the provided "things to do and places to go" bin that Natalie provided and found great restaurants with notes as to the ones other people have visited as well as where they've enjoyed going for fun. If you have a car a trip to the Flea Market on Commercial Blvd is a must! Great knock-off bags and deals for everyone. It's BIG so leave a few hours to go. There's an 18-movie theater close-by too. If you can get to Ft. Lauderdale (about 15 mintues) take a ride on the Carrie-B and see all the mansions and yachts, take a walk on Las Olas Blvd and eat at Le Bonne Crepe. Every Friday night theres a concert at Lauderdale-by-the-sea (about 8 minute drive) by the pier and you can eat right there at one of 4-5 restaurants. The first Friday of the month Pompano has a concert on the beach too! Ft. Lauderdale also has a wonderful Performing Arts Center. I could go on, but you'll see for yourselves.
We visited the beach house for 6 weeks this year and have already made our plans to return for 2 months in 2014! So if you're looking for a great spot for a night, a week, or months I would strongly suggest making your reservations early, because this place is going to rent out quickly!
Thanks again Natalie & Doug!!
