About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

5 bed/ 3 bath, 3 king/ 10 twin beds, home + guesthouse, 2 kitchens/ living rooms

Just a short drive to Fort Lauderdale Beach, Wilton Manors, and downtown, you’ll be close to everything while enjoying the comforts of home.

• Clawfoot Tub
• Sun Loungers
• Grill & Propane
• Beach Supplies
• Washer & Dryer
• Star & Underwater machine

Every corner of this home is designed to spark a little wonder. Settle in for a cozy night with the Chromecast-powered projector, transforming the living room into your own private cinema beneath the sails. Climb up to the crow’s nest loft, where you can gaze through the “periscope,” swap stories, and feel as though you’re charting the stars.

The details are what make this house an ideal escape from reality—like the clawfoot soaking tub, a perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring, or the eclectic nautical décor that brings the Captain’s world to life. Thoughtful touches abound, from beach gear for your ocean excursions to board games and activities that keep the whole crew entertained.

Here, every stay feels less like a getaway and more like a voyage of discovery, blending comfort, playfulness, and just the right amount of whimsy.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Poinsettia Heights is a centrally located quiet neighborhood in the heart of Fort Lauderdale. Steps away from vibrant Wilton Manors and the Beach, and a short drive to Miami, the area is a perfect location to explore South Florida from.

The location is perfect for those guests who decide not to rent a car. Sunrise Blvd, Federal Highway (US1) and the adorable outcrop that is dubbed 13th street (NE 13th St) are all within walking distance (under a mile).

LOCAL FLAVOR
Nearby you will find local gems such as Eucalyptus Gardens, Storks, Gulfstream Brewery, Lovelee Bakeshop, Croissan‘time, and Montce Swim. The Galleria Mall is just 1.5 miles away and there are plenty of places to rent Kayaks/ Paddleboards, dozens of mid-century modern vintage shops, and most importantly; the golden sands of Fort Lauderdale Beach.

EVERYDAY CONVENIENCE
Within 1 mile of the home, you’ll find:
• Publix supermarket
• Walgreens pharmacy
• Dunkin’ Donuts
• Middle River Terrace Park
• Liquor store (open until 2 a.m.)
• Gas stations, restaurants, and shops

QUICK DISTANCES
• Beach – 2.1 miles
• Las Olas – 1.8 miles
• Flagler Village – 1.3 miles
• Wilton Manors – 1.5 miles
• Downtown Fort Lauderdale – 3.2 miles
• Fort Lauderdale Airport – 6.5 miles

BRIGHTLINE TRAIN– 2.5 miles
Miami: ~30 min
West Palm Beach: ~30 min
Orlando: ~2.5 hrs

GETTING AROUND
Landlubbers can head due south (to Sunrise Blvd) or east (to US 1 / Federal Hwy) to reach major thoroughfares where public transportation via bus is available, but Uber & Lyft is readily available.

One block West of the home, there are two bus stops, one northbound and one southbound. We do not suggest public transportation in Fort Lauderdale as it's not fully developed as in larger cities.

If you do not plan to rent a vehicle at the airport we suggest using Sixt rent-a-car on Sunrise Blvd. It's within a 5-minute drive from the home and has great vehicles for guests traveling in large groups.

WATER TAXI
If you’d rather swap asphalt for water, the iconic Fort Lauderdale Water Taxi is close at hand—your pass to cruising the Intracoastal like a true mariner, with stops at waterfront restaurants, shops, and cultural spots.
