Wonderful Spring Break

My wife and two boys really enjoyed our sunny vacation. The home was clean and comfortable, the pool provided a fun place to chill, and the beach was just a short 15min walk. Great visit and communication.

Nice home in nice neighborhood

This is a nice home in a nice quiet safe neighborhood. This is what I was looking for - so quiet no earplugs needed. Loved seeing neighbors out walking and very friendly. Communication was fantastic so responsive and helpful. Very clear instructions on finding the home and entry.

Great house

This house had everything we needed. The pool was clean. Beds were comfy, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, silverware, coffee cups, and glasses. The hosts Jan & Tom were outstanding and communicated very well. We were going to rent this house next February, unfortunately it was available. Great house!

Private beach access!

We enjoyed the house. The only thing that was not very good is the access to the beach. The private beach cross the main road was not accessible (it shows on the private beach on VRBO but we did not have the entrance key). Why the photos of the private beach are on the VRBO if you didn't have access???

Wonderful Place to Stay

Wonderful vacations

Perfect place for a family vacation, amazing place with all conditions both in the house and its surroundings, very quiet neighborhood, close to the beach, and the center with many options within reach. Magnificent communication with the owners, excellent cleanliness and everything necessary to make you feel like you took care of your home to go on vacation, they met all our expectations, they really meet everything they offer on the page. Thank you very much for making our stay so pleasant. For our entire family it was 10/10

This home is very gorgeous! The pool was very nice. The garage was nice to hang out in and the Florida room was very comfortable as well. This was a very pleasant trip and the hosts were very quick to communicate if we needed anything. I would 100% recommend this rental to friends or family.

Great spot, as described

Very clean and spacious home in a quiet intercoastal neighbourhood. Family of 5 and a grandmother that stayed and enjoyed it very much. Beach is walkable with the wagon provided and publix is also walkable if needed. Only thing id recommend is to swap out the double bed in the second bedroom with bunk beds to really maximize potential of this rental. Would definitely stay again

Great location and quiet neighborhood

Perfect for morning (or evening walks). My wife and I loved walking down to the beach, Beachcomber or nearby properties to eat. Also near enough to stores and other bars, and activities to make it a short drive. We made good use of most of the property and it was pleasant just to eat, and hang at pool. We suggest heated option from Oct to April. It's about 85 degrees, just cool enough for my wife, just warm enough for me. Wifi, TV's , appliances all worked well. Communication with property managers was clear and concise.

Wonderful retreat in the middle of everything

We had a very comfortable and enjoyable team at Jan's and Tom's house for 1 1/2 weeks. A wonderful peaceful place after coming back from variety of activities the area has to offer, ranging from various nearby beaches, over the everglade tours or a football match at the Dolphin's stadium. Pompano beach or Lauderdale-by-the-sea have great options for a steak, Taco's or good fish menues. The house has everthing you need to feel comfortable and the pool is great for a morning swim or refreshing dive in the afternoon. Communication with Jan and Tom was great and umcomplicated. We did not really have too much to discuss, which speaks for itselfs. As everything was working properly in the house and we did not experience any issues at all. Would always come back if we plan another vacation at Florida east coast!

Peace and quiet

Property is located in the quiet, walkable Terra Mar area. We loved the welcome goody basket and personal message greeting us at arrival. The pool was excellent for a cool off and just to chat and relax with a drink. In the mornings, 2 of us headed out for beach walks (windy!) and coffee. After dinner, we would all stroll the neighborhood; residents are friendly. Grocery and restaurants weren’t close enough for a quick walk but were easily assessable via a super quick drive or delivery. (Loved a French bistro we found a bit inland; mmm, fresh croissants). This was just the relaxing trip I needed with my friends. Thanks Jan and Tom!

Great vacation house

We greatly enjoyed the house. The pool is great, good size and deep. Very quiet residential area. Walking distance to a very nice beach with very few ppl. House had all basic supplies including welcome basket with snacks and water! Very nice beach chairs and a cart to carry them to the beach. Highly recommended!

This is a beautiful little neighborhood and the home was very nice. Most importantly, it was immaculate. The hosts were incredibly responsive and went above and beyond when we contacted them. We mostly moved from the pool to the beach, and back again for an evening swim. The beach wagon was great and everything needed was supplied. I hope to return.

Wonderful Winter Getaway

Booked this house for 6 weeks in February and March. The house is spacious, comfortable, clean, and full of amenities; especially the heated swimming pool, games and ping pong table in the garage, to make our stay a total joy. The welcome basket was also a nice start to our stay. There are plenty of beach towels and we were given brand new beach chairs. There is a cart to carry your stuff a short walk to an almost private beach area with no facilities, or a short drive to either Pompano or Lauderdale by the Sea beaches. The kitchen has everything needed to cook a fine meal, lessening the need to eat out, and the bbq grill an added attraction. Some of the furniture could use updating for comfort, specifically the leather sectional sofa in the living room. There is also a sleep sofa in the living room that is quite comfortable to sit on. We spent a good deal of our time outside by the pool area which is clean and the outdoor furniture comfortable. The location of the house was spectacular. Terra Mar Island is a safe and quiet community with little traffic, making it a great place to walk before breakfast or after dinner. It is close to restaurants, shopping and the beach. What made our stay even more pleasant were Jan an Tom Brain, the managers of the house. Any problems, a simple call to Tom or Jan, and Tom would be at the house almost immediately to ensure the problem was resolved. This was most important when we encountered some plumbing issues that were quickly taken care of with upgraded fixtures. They were always pleasant and felt like old trusted friends.
