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.

Here is some additional detailed information about the home:

Liberal cancellation policy

low security deposit

walking distance to beach

Truly close to S. Beach

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.

Coming from Paris, we stayed here for a month (Aug. 2009) and it was the perfect get-away for our family. Could be more than diffcult to find the equivalent in France.
Special thanks to the outstanding owner!

As travel agents, my husband and I have seen a lot of properties... This property was a real find - well-managed, beautiful architecture, great location, wonderful layout and plenty of space for our group. Our family birthday celebration trip was fabulous in large part to the great property where we stayed. Kitchen was easy to maneuver. All the bedrooms have separate baths. Beautiful pool with privacy hedges.

Our group was so comfortable that we literally did not want to leave. The owner is very pleasant to deal with. Great place!

Thank you for a lovely vacation spot. We plan to return for future trips to the area and have already recommended it to several people!

I stayed here with four colleagues for a conference, and we each had our own bedroom and bathroom for a FRACTION of what it would have cost to stay in a hotel. House is lovely and clean, with brand new appliances in the updated kitchen, a sparkling swimming pool, and a truly LUXURIOUS master suite. Neighborhood is quiet and safe. South Beach is a bit of a walk, but only a short cab ride away, and public transportation is nearby. The owner was easy to reach and responded promptly to all of our questions. Would gladly stay in this house again, and recommend it highly to all visitors.

Discerning Hoteliers Give It a Thumbs Up!

Submitted: December 11, 2009 Stayed: November 2009
As you know we appreciate and can recognize quality and luxury, being hoteliers from Italy. To say that your place rivals top notch accommodations available anywhere would be an understatement. While the photos on the site were nice, it's only when you actually stay here and see things first hand do you realize what a beautiful place this is. Our favorite thing was hanging out in the pool area talking in the shade of the umbrella. I've already recommended your home to my parents who come down for several months every year to vacation.

Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Privacy and pool area

Submitted: October 15, 2009 Stayed: August 2009
We liked the privacy of the house and outdoor pool area. Only problem was we had to fight amongst ourselves over who was going to use the master bedroom - the bathroom is to die for.

They were a little short on towels when we got there, but the owner quickly brought us some more within a day of asking so no real issues. Will definitely stay here again.

We loved this place

5 of 5
Submitted: May 26, 2009 Stayed: April 2009
The emails and photos online do not do this place justice compared to in person. Really amazing place. We loved the pool area because the waterfall sounds really made us feel like we were in some tropical oasis. Even better is the location. We were right in the middle of everywhere we wanted to be. Walking distance to the ocean, resteurants, and a short (less than 1 mile) car ride to south baech. We used the email we received as our guide to see everything recommended. We booked our reservations for the end of the year when we're coming back again. Highly recommended house and location.
