Lighthouse Point, Florida
Are you ready for some fun in the sun This mini-resort has it all; and it's 40ft) from our property line - you can barely see it - so, instead of feeling 'hemmed in', you'll be able to enjoy the sunset through the coconut palms that run along the fence line. For INSIDE fun: there's a pro-size (8.5ft) Brunswick pool table, with a 2 inch slate bed, in a full-size pool room (without cueing restrictions) and 4 high-top bar stools for the spectators. [Most other pool tables you'll see are 5 or 6ft, maybe 7ft and most of them have thin slate/wooden beds which means you'll have a small and wonky playing surface.] In the separate, adjoining, games room you'll love the dual player, side-by-side basketball arcade game and glow-in-the dark foosball. The open plan layout from living room, to pool room to games room enjoins everyone in the fun and laughter - and of course there are 65 inch OLED TVs in all 3 rooms - so you can watch what you want on DirecTV (a different channel in every room if you choose) or stream to the screens via our 1.5 Gig fiber optic wifi network!
With over 4,000 sq ft, you'll feel like everyone has their own space. There are 5 over-sized bedrooms and 3.5 baths. This includes 3 master suites with king-beds and ensuites - the upstairs master even has a jacuzzi tub! 1 of the master suites shares a jack-and-jill bathroom with the 4th bedroom that has 2 x double beds. The 5th bedroom has twin bunk beds and a twinXL. (Upstairs has a master suite plus the 5th bedroom. The other 3 bedrooms are downstairs.) All the beds have new, memory foam mattresses and most of them include cooling gel for an even better night's sleep. All pillows and comforters are foam (no feathers).
We have a pack-and-play as well as a standard crib as well as a baby bed (with a 50lb weight limit and linens provided). So we can sleep a total of 12: 11 adults/children in beds + at least 1 infant
The kitchen, yes you guessed it, is enormous - with granite counter tops, induction stove and all the utensils you could possibly need. It also has 2 coffee makers - regular and a Keurig. The open plan layout is in full effect here too - there's a breakfast bar that seats 5 comfortably and it opens onto the dining area with a table that seats 4 or 6 and, with a simple swivel of the tempered glass top, expands to seat 8 in style.
The neighborhood is one of the safest, prettiest and quietest! Because it runs alongside the Atlantic there's no through traffic - only locals. It's just over 2 square miles but the city of Lighthouse Point has its own police department. The officers scan the license plates of everyone entering the community and there are multiple police cars patrolling 24/7. The 25mph speed limit is strictly enforced. There are canals throughout the neighborhood and a majority of homes are in the multimillion dollar range. The streets are tree-lined and shaded by their overhangs. The community parks are first rate. Within a mile there are tennis and racket ball courts a full-length bocce ball court and specialized playgrounds for tiny tots and toddlers. Also The Atlantic beaches are We appreciate guests who are conscious of their carbon footprint and considerate of the effects of global warming on regions like Florida - such as more extreme hurricanes. As such we have minimum A/C temperature settings to help reduce energy consumption. These are low enough to provide a very pleasant environment for everyone except those who like to crank the AC as low as it will go and leave it there for the duration of their stay. If that's what you like to do, please don't book with us. We have dual AC units - one for each floor - so that you can customize your setting.
The residents of Lighthouse Point are almost exclusively year-round homeowners and the average home value exceeds $1 million. Consequently, you will be able to enjoy the kind of peaceful, relaxing vacation that you'll struggle to find elsewhere in densely populated and highly trafficked south Florida! This is a very different community than the surrounding cities - like Pompano/Deerfield Beach. In order to safeguard this tranquil ambiance, the city has a noise ordinance. So if you like to make the kind of noise that will disturb neighbors, including but not limited to playing music loudly, then this is absolutely NOT the property/neighborhood for you. You should choose a home in Pompano/Deerfield Beach instead. Here is the noise ordinance that, by renting Placid Paradise, you agree to comply with: "Any sound shall not be plainly audible for a period of one (I) minute or longer at a distance of twenty-five (25) feet or more when measured from the source property line between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. daily and at a distance of fifty (50) feet or more when measured from the source property line between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. daily."
So, after 10pm you can continue to enjoy the outside areas of the house, you can also play music (quietly). You just can not have music that's loud enough that it will disturb the neighbors.
If you fail to comply with it you will lose your entire deposit. If you continue to not comply after one warning, then your party's legal designation changes from guests to trespassers and I will instruct the LHP police department to remove you from the property immediately. Failure to comply leaves you liable to arrest, and subsequent prosecution, for trespassing.
We will consider pets.
If you can not guarantee your pet won't mark inside the house, then do not ask to bring it.
Furthermore, for your family’s health (and that of subsequent guests), our sand volleyball/badminton court and our bocce ball court can not be used as pet latrines.
These courts are not gated, so a pet, let loose on the property, can not be stopped from relieving itself in the giant sand pit or on the bocce ball court.
So if that also does not work for you (i.e. you will not restrict the pet whilst outside the house, yet on the property), then do not ask to bring it.
Any evidence of deposits (including urine) in the house, in the sand volleyball/badminton court, in the bocce ball court, or within the property line, will result in complete forfeiture of your deposit.
If your pet/s is/are accepted, we charge $25 per pet per night. VRBO will assess a $25/night fee for 1 (one) pet only at booking. So if you are bringing more than 1 pet, we will need to reconcile the balance separately after booking. Maximum 2 pets.
