Walk to Beach! Poolside Oasis in Pompano

The management company did a great job with communication. The property is in a good location. It is not a private beach and a good half mile walk to an access. The pool and pool area are nice. The house is set up well. It worked well for our family gathering. It does need some improvements. The property has great potential. Most of the bedding is very worn and there were no extra blankets, there was no soap or shampoo. (The management company did bring 4 (very small bars). The cushions on the outdoor patio either were very worn or non-existing. It is located in a very quiet neighborhood.

Abundant towels, a large pool, and many steak knives. The large family room and adequate seating around the Christmas dinner table were welcome. The access to a “private” beach as implied in the listing required a longer walk but ok for our group. And there was a corner store to purchase that much needed coffee even on Christmas Day, as well as a couple of restaurants a reasonable walk away. Perplexing was the discrepancies between the visual display on VRBO and the actual space, and being met by the management company rep when we arrived, a first for us. As we settled in there were a series of issues, such as toilets that shifted positions on the floors when you arose, the leaking sink on the kitchen island, rotting floorboards on the deck outside the primary bedroom, and an inoperative ice and water dispenser, that were hard to ignore. The kitchen cabinets seemed full of things but were a disorganized mess that made it hard to figure out what you had to cook. The sliding doors did cost a few of us broken fingernails since they were difficult to open. There were typed and also hand printed notes with lots of no’s that left an overall impression of negativity, which we dealt with holiday good humor. Our experience seems more like the reviews of several years ago that reflected a home in need of TLC and repairs that will enhance the great points of location and outdoor amenities that could make this a great space for large groups.

Cracked and miasing concrete in pool, property waa poorly cleaned, had to clean the floors myself, long walk to beach entrance, pool was cloudy, property manager was professional and responsibe. Great house but needs some TLC

Pretty cozy and private place. Pool was definitely the highlight

A great space for our family reunion of 9 adults. The pool was a favorite feature. The temp of pool was perfect no heating needed. Plenty of room to gather. There is undoubtedly no private beach access. The HOA does not permit short term renters to use it. Didn’t matter because it was too hot for the beach. AC was inconsistent. Some rooms great others too warm. Sliding door to patio difficult for our elderly family members to open and close. Overall has the feeling of a well loved vacation house. The property manager Val was terrific. Super responsive via text.

It was clean and relaxing. The property manager was nice

This was awesome. Bedrooms and bathrooms were a perfect fit, kitchen and outdoor area worked out really well for family time. The property manager Val was extremely helpful and answered all our questions and made recommendation's.

Really nice with beach access. Works great for a group.

5 couples traveling for a wedding. Property was great for gathering, and easy walk to the beach. Only improvement would be cushions for the dining room and barstools. Everyone commented on how hard and uncomfortable they were. Thoroughly enjoyed the pool and time together. Would recommend for any large groups.

Great location lots to do, but had to keep messaging the property manager about stuff. Loved the heated pool, but always ran out of hot water for showers. Kitchen and dinning set up wonderful for large family. Overall great for my family of 7 adults. We were looking for a quick getaway to chill and relax by the pool and got it!!

There is no private beach. I notified both Evolve and the local management that they should advise the owner to update the listing to reflect this and waited to allow them time to do this before reviewing, but they have not. This changed back around January of 2024, so they have had plenty of time and reviews to change it. The public access is fine, and I don't understand why they don't just remove the private label. It is false advertising.That said, the place was ok, but the second floor bedrooms are hot. I did not think this would be an issue in November, but it certainly was, and I live in Miami so I am used to hot. They advised we could not turn the thermostat lower than 70, and we did not, but it was much warmer than 70 upstairs, even with the separate thermostats. I am used to sleeping at 74 degrees, so there is something off with the air conditioning and they should address this. I would not recommend this house, although the location is great.

Among the many disappointing things with this rental- sliding doors that were almost impossible to open and close, malfunctioning toilets (2 out of 4), and hot water heater that was set on scalding, poorly appointed kitchen items, lack of a surface to keep a suitcase on or a chair to sit on in the bed rooms, - we were the most upset about the “private beach access”. We had to walk about 15 mins to get to the public beach. This house must have a short future - appears the owners are renting it until they get the right price for the lot for it to become a tear down. Everything inside is worn out.

The house was perfect size for our group. Fabulous location and the pool was awesome!

We had a perfect stay. The home was clean, spacious and had everything that we needed.

I set all 3 air conditioners to 70 degrees; however, the units are not sufficient to support the large house. Several rooms were very warm and fans made it worse. The shower curtains in one of the upstairs bathroom are torn and has mold at the bottom. The house needs repainting in certain rooms. Patio furniture has mildew and needs replacing. Living room sofa is worn. Bring towels, not enough (there were 10 people). Sliding glass doors are hard to open. Its a beautiful house, just needs attention to the items listed above. Val and Matias were extremely helpful. I received the incorrect house code and Val immediately text the info. We stayed 2 days and overall is was okay.

The house is very comfortable; kitchen is well equipped and living area is very roomy for a large group. Customer care contact (Valerie) was very courteous and responsive. Location is great. I would stay there again.

House was very nice & clean. Check-in was by code which I loved...my flight was delayed so code check-in was perfect. Nice lil best kept secret everything was great for our work/vacation. We come every year for our annual work trip. Definitely booking this one again!
