This stay was wonderful! Very clean, well stocked and a 1 minute walk to a beautiful beach. The grounds are fantastic as well. We arrived at the condo after a very long day traveling. There was beer, wine, water, fresh fruit and snacks waiting for us! Don't pass this one up!

This was a lovely and comfortable place to spend a week with our two kids. The garden was by far the most enjoyable part of the property, but the apartment itself was cute and had everything we needed (we LOVED the smell of the soaps provided in the kitchen and bathroom). It is a half a block from a nice beach, which was not particularly busy even on the weekend during spring break season. The owners and other guests were kind and respectful. The only thing we'd share with others is that the pull out couch was not very comfortable (as far as pull out beds go). It worked for one adult, or a small child, but future guests may want to consider this if that sleeping space is needed for more than one person, bigger kids, or more than a few days. Overall this was a great stay and we would definitely come again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Florida Garden Apartment! The lush property is so beautiful! We were able to enjoy it in the evenings! They even have Bluetooth speakers you can connect to outside! The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. We didn’t spend much time in the apt because there was so much to do in such a close proximity. We would wake up in the mornings and walk down to the beach ..which was literally steps away! A great getaway for my husband and myself!! A

Amazing spot by the beach

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. With the beach less than a block away, you can't go wrong. The apartment itself is really nice too, it felt clean and had cool decor. Couch was very comfy to watch movies on! Plus, it was well stocked with everything you needed: shampoo, kitchen utensils, beach towels. We appreciated the outdoor shower they had outside so we could rinse off after the beach before going inside. The location was great - the boardwalk area in Hollywood Beach was just a short drive away, there were some good restaurants nearby too, and we were even able to walk down the beach to take a surfing lesson. The check in process was super easy and communication was smooth. Overall, we would highly recommend staying here if you're looking to stay right next to a beautiful beach!

Quick getaway

DeSoto Beach House was nearly perfect. Just steps from the private beach, with chairs and umbrellas provided that were quick and easy to set up. The apartment was spotless and exactly as described. The only downside was the firm bed, though that comes down to personal preference. The owner was great to work with—responsive and accommodating.

A peaceful, comfortable stay in a perfect beach location

I spent a full week at Aleyda and Brian’s place—and I’m so glad I did. The beach is just a short walk away, about four houses down a quiet street. It’s part of a turtle sanctuary, so there are no high-rises and hardly any people, especially on weekdays. It felt peaceful and unspoiled, with a lifeguard on duty and plenty of space to enjoy the water and sand without crowds.The apartment was clean, quiet, and very comfortable. The kitchen is efficient and well stocked, and I really appreciated arriving to a fridge filled with drinks and fruit, plus a full snack basket. The living room has original artwork, which gave the space a warm, personal touch. The bed was super comfortable, and I slept well every night. The bathroom was spotless and stocked with shampoo, soap, and everything I needed.One of my favorite parts was the outdoor space. The patio and courtyard are full of tropical plants, many of them blooming, and it felt like a hidden garden. I especially loved the tiki hut—perfect for drinking my morning coffee. One day it rained, and I stayed dry under the hut, just listening to the birds. So peaceful.Aleyda and Brian were wonderful hosts—kind, patient, and welcoming. My week there was restful and just what I needed. I’m already looking forward to returning.
Tiki hut where I had morning coffee and listened to the birds.
Beach is about 4 or 5 houses down a quiet street.
The beach is a turtle sanctuary--no high rises and pretty unpopulated on weekdays.

Great Girls Trip Location!!

Brian and his wife were an absolute treat and made such a difference for our stay. They were such attentive and accommodating hosts. We absolutely enjoyed this cozy space - perfect for 3 women! A short walk to the beach and local restaurants. Ordering groceries and food was a breeze. When wanting to explore the beach 5 minutes away, a quick bus trip or uber was fairly inexpensive. We also were about 30 minutes from Miami, which was perfect for those nights out. 10/10 recommend - great experience!

A little slice of paradise

We absolutely loved our stay here.... And I mean we LOVED it! We didn't want to leave! I can't speak any more highly about our hosts and their entire crew. They were such a delight and so accommodating. We were so appreciative that they had snacks and refreshments (especially coffee) ready for us in our unit. After a long day of travel it was great not having to worry about picking up groceries the moment we got into town. Our favorite things about this property was the beautiful garden and tikki hut, and the proximity to the beach (much quiter than the beach on the main drag.) Beach chairs and umbrellas were available for use, so we spent a lot of time just relaxing in the beach... Which was sorely needed. We can't wait to go back.

Relaxing Beach Stay

Thanks to Brian and Aleyda for a great long weekend. Their place was clean and a two min walk to the beach on a quiet neighborhood road. Close to some great restaurants and bars but the proximity to a low key beach is amazing. Brian was great at getting right back to me when I had a question. We can't wait to come back. Great place, great hosts!

It’s EVERYTHING!!!

We cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay! The beautiful landscaping, the short walk to the private beach, convenient location to the Broadwalk, the surprise treats/beverages waiting for us just to mention a few. This area of Hollywood is very quiet and peaceful with busy nightlife just a short drive away. We were happy that we could visit with Brian even if it was just for a little bit as he was leaving for a family trip. We would like to come back soon and bring family/friends as this building has 6 units. Thanks for everything!
