Middle River Paradise

Hi, my husband and I stayed here for 5 weeks. The hosts were very friendly and we had nice conversations. The unit was as described in the listing and had everything we needed for our stay; especially for cooking and storing food . The unit was clean upon arrival and easy to care for. The grounds were excellent with a nice view of the river, a great pool, a hot tub, and nice places to sit (in sun or shade). An easy walk to a convenience store and several shops and eateries; for a longer walk, but not too bad, you could venture into the heart of Wilton Manors and leave the car behind. Will gladly return!

Superb Guest Suite

The guest suites at this property are impeccable. I stayed in the Garden View Suite, a bit larger, however the Ocean View Suite has great views. Everything about this place was perfect. Communication, self-entry and check in, to a beautifully appointed and quiet apartment. You need to bring absolutely nothing. Good restaurants are a few blocks from here, as are the bars. I chose not to have a car, and walked or took uber. Arnie and Jacob are gracious hosts - with wonderful 'southern' hospitality. I look forward to a return in the near future!
