Perfect overnight stay before the cruise! Loved having a small kitchen and plenty of space for all 4 of us! Alan was an excellent host, helpful and accommodating with all of our questions and needs!

We stayed the night before our cruise and this was the perfect place for us. The location is convenient to the airport, the cruise port and to explore Ft Lauderdale the day before our cruise. Alan, the owner was very easy to work with and very accommodating when we asked to check in at noon. We met him at the unit and he gave us recommendations for where to go and many dinner choices! The most important part ( at least to me ) everything was clean and it looks exactly like the pictures.

Alan was a very attentive host. This is a nice little studio apartment. Quite comfortable for 2 people with a little table, microwave, refrigerator, iron etc. He thought of nice little touches. Good climate control & easy access & parking. Walkable to downtown & restaurants also. Clean & quiet. Thanks!

Overall, LunaSea was a great experience. Very clean and spacious rooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Actually more space than I needed! The owner was polite, discrete and very accommodating to my arrival times. Also, communication was professional and very reliable. The price was right and very quiet nights sleep. I’d stay here again for sure!

Alan was a very attentive, on-site host. Great communication with him before & during our stay. The studio apartment was comfortable for 2 people with a bistro table for 2, microwave, refrigerator, iron etc. Exactly what we needed for an overnight stay prior to our cruise. Good climate control & easy access & parking or ~ $20 cab fare from FLL. Walkable to downtown & restaurants along the river. Just off a main road, so very quiet. We will definitely stay there again!

Alan is the BEST host you can have and the place is just perfect; close to Los Olas and conveniently located if you want to do a few trips to Hollywood Beach, Miami, etc. I recommend to everyone going to FLL. Note: Alan is Italian and he even cooked us a delicious pasta dinner not too long before we left (we stayed for a month). He’s a very good person and made sure we had everything we needed at all time, even brought us 2 work chairs since we were working remotely while there. Thank you so much for everything Alan and let us know if you ever come to Montreal!

Comfortable, clean room/bathroom in quiet, residential neighborhood. Walking distance to downtown Ft. Lauderdale…about 15 minutes. Room has all the basics one needs, small fridge with cold water, closet, ironing board and iron, comfortable bed and clean sheets, good cable tv. The host, Alan, lives on property and is very responsive to queries but respectful of guests’ privacy. I did not have a car, but I believe parking is free.
