Fort Lauderdale is a fantastic destination for a holiday, and you will run out of reasons why it’s awesome! Its long coastline is interspersed with canals and waterways that remind one of Venice, while its beachfront restaurants and nightclubs, especially the Las Olas Boulevard, are the perfect places to let your hair down. It is a thriving center for arts and culture, as well as nature, given the number of parks and protected areas. It is a prime diving spot and a hub for water adventure activities too. Not to mention the Port Everglades with a major cruise-ship port and the start of exotic vacations to the Caribbean and beyond. Whether you are here for a long holiday or a stopover while on a cruise vacation, a vacation rental is the way to go! Here is a list of vacation rentals in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
