We actually had plans to stay at a different resort which did not work out once we arrived to Ft. Lauderdale. We traveled for the weekend with our 2 small dogs so needed a pet friendly place to stay. I immediately liked Ed when I called and he said we were welcome at his resort. Once we arrived, we were offered a drink and he showed us two options. Both were decorated nicely and we chose the house that has 2 bedrooms and a sitting area off the deck. It was very comfortable and nice to have snack and drinks available. We enjoyed the hot tub, the pool and lounging in the lawn area with our pups. We walked to restuarants and bars all 3 days which was super convenient. The best feature of the resort is Ed! He made us feel welcome, gave us ideas of where to go and for sure, we will plan a return visit!!!

This is our third trip to Ed Lugo's and we are still impressed with the service and the overall resort. This time we tried the house across the street. We were very happy with the contemporary furnishings and great beds (and linen). The shower is spa-like and the kitchen would please a chef. We found the living areas very comfortable overall. The private back yard is great and would be enhanced with a more accommodating seating area. Otherwise, the privacy of enjoying morning coffee or an evening cocktail over looking very tropical trees, is unparalleled. If you are looking to relax and still be close to everything Ft. Lauderdale and Wilton Manors has to offer, I recommend Ed Lugo's over any luxury hotel in the area. We'll be back!

My wife and I went here for our honeymoon a few weeks ago and it was amazing! Ed Lugo himself was our host and took great care of us! He brought us mangos from the trees in the back yard; he and his staff took care of our place everyday and made the bed and refilled water/snacks. The service here was the best we have ever had! The resort itself is centrally located about 2 miles from the beach; it is also very close to some great restaurants! In addition: there is a gym near the resort that Ed gave us temporary day passes for, the famous Swap Shop (with a drive in movie theater) is only a few miles away as well! Inside the resort was gorgeous! We stayed in Villa 2406 and there were two bedrooms that were VERY comfortable, A beautiful shower, full kitchen, washer & dryer, and a living room worthy of a king! The back yard was also gorgeous with a covered hammock with beautiful draperies, gorgeous pool with a waterfall, mango and coconut trees, orchids, and Iguanas running around! My wife and I had the most amazing time here and could not have picked a better place for our Honeymoon; the pictures of this place cannot do it justice! We plan on coming back to this beautiful 5 Star Resort for our anniversary! Thank you so much Ed!!!!

OMG! We found this resort by chance; the place is a virtual paradise! Our host, Ed couldn't be more friendly and gracious, both our rooms were clean, beautifully decorated and inviting. We couldn't believe the attention to detail, the pretty orchids and chocolates with robes on our beds, the pretty flower arrangements in our bedrooms and living room area, the plush towels in our bathroom, the Aveda products for personal use etc. Also loved the stocked snacks and various beverages stocked in the refrig. at no extra cost. We travelled to the area for a niece's graduation and family reunion. My sister stayed nearby on Fort. Lauderdale beach in a two bedroom suite on the strip with all the congestion and your typical commercial high-end hotel and she couldn't believe that I paid much less then she did for her suite and she was very impressed my suite and all the amenities available to me for much less!

My daughter and I felt very special and pampered by our host! The grounds are gorgeous with some of the most beautiful landscaping I have ever seen. Loved the pool area, especially at night with all the pretty lighting and the romantic area surrounding the hammock.

Lots of wonderful and interesting restaurants and shops in the area, would highly recommend this place to everyone, will definitely stay there again for future visits.
