This is a fantastic little place right on the beach. Have been coming here for a number of years and more impressed everytime we are here. It is a very comfortable, well maintained and clean property. The location is spectacular - right on the beach overlooking the ocean and close to the shops and restaurants of Lauderdale By The Sea.... More

We stayed at this location for 12 days. The first 7 days we had a first floor corner unit, with a partial view of the ocean, next to the pool. The unit was clean and comfortable. At 6'1" I found the bed to be a little short for me. On the other hand, the location is great. The staff was... More

Great place, very quiet, heated pool which was great as temperature was cool. Restaurants are close, great coffee at the coffee shop on commercial boul. The sunrises are incredible and the ocean is 100 feet away. They also have free parking and free wi fi which was appreciated. Need to get an ocean view this close and this private at... More

Everything was just right. We had a queen-size one bedroom (Room 207) with an ocean "side view". The ocean view from our patio and living room was quite wide and very nice. The patio faced south and was nicely protected from the wind, relatively private and quiet. The Costa del Sol is not a high upscale resort, but it's of... More

WOW..this place is great! I can't believe this is one of my favorite vacations! This place only has one bedroom, one baths...but they have brand new commercial pull out sofas that are quite comfy! No granite counters, no high end decor..this feels like Fla from my childhood. Now, if that makes you think that this place is not for you...WOW,... More

We've stay at Costa del Sol four times now -- three times with a timeshare and in October 2012, we rented directly from the property. It wasn't exactly cheap, but the rooms have a FANTASTIC view of the ocean and the closeness of restaurants/bars/grocery stores, etc. just cannot be beat! We don't have children, so we always vacation when school... More

We were worried about this place because it had only one current review. What a great surprise and great vacation. Try to get an end room, king size bed. The ocean view is great and the noise is less. These are older, but well kept and clean timeshare condos. Ref, Stove, microwave, toaster, blender...you get the point everything you need.... More

This property is right on the beach and is well maintained. Daily towel service and mid-week cleaning is provided. The area [Lauderdale by the Sea] is a small community but it is a few miles up the road from Ft. Lauderdale, Pompano, Miami etc, larger communities with more exciting stuff. The condo we had was well-appointed but if you want... More

We spent a week here, so relaxing. Very clean, staff is friendly. Just remember it is a timeshare resort, so 98% of people staying there are owners. So if you have children that like to run around and jump in the pool there will be dirty looks from people. Mind you we did meet great friends there, it's too bad... More

You cannot get a better view of the ocean from either your room, balcony or by the pool. This resort has only one bedroom units, perfect for two people. Nice flat screen in livingroom, extra tv in bedroom. Kitchen is nicely furnished, including a dishwasher. The only items missing in the unit are washer and dryer (on site for quarters)... More
