Ed Lugo Resort

great place

had great time and was great price

Very Satisfied Honeymooners! Will return!

My husband & I just returned from our honeymoon stay in villa 2406 (2 bedroom, full kitchen, dining & living room areas). We really couldn't be any happier with our stay. I found it while researching online and emailed the resort back in February before booking to ask if we could bring my small dog. I received a quick response with a friendly message from Ed giving his permission. Upon checking in, Ed greeted us with a glass of wine and chit chat. The office is decorated beautifully with fresh flowers everywhere. Ed was warm and genuine, offering up reccommendations for nearby restaurants. He introduced us to Lourdes, who showed us around the pool area & to our villa located about 5 steps from the pool- it is absolutely gorgeous! Especially at night, the pictures & reviews do not lie. The decor inside the villa was boutique-like, tastefully done and very nice. There were fresh flowers throughout, robes, chocolates, complimentary snacks & drinks, a nice display of chilled champagne with glasses and chocolate dipped strawberries. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you'd need to cook in. The first night we used thier outdoor grill & had dinner on the back patio, which was beautiful. The heated pool is lit up very nicely at night, and paired with the waterfall & exotic foilage everywhere, it is simply stunning. Everything screams romance and relaxation! We spent time lounging in the hammock & hottub. We also pretty much had the pool to ourselves most of the time, which was great because I could have been perfectly content never leaving this property during our entire honeymoon. A nice touch is their outdoor shower made private by more trees & various foilage. Lourdes took great care of us, checking on us daily, bringing extra towels, etc. Although we refused daily housekeeping, it was offered to us. She even offered to walk our dog! There was someone on the property 24/7 if we needed anything. This place is so uniquely private & so close to everything at the same time. We reccommend visiting Le Patio restaurant if you're looking for a romantic dinner out, a 5 minute walk from the resort (amongst various other close by restaurants). There are plenty of things to do in town & the resort is a 10 minute drive from the beach as well. All in all, we loved this place & will be back. The value, hospitality and personalized touches you get for the price can't be matched. While coming home yesterday (we live on the other coast), we had driven about an hour when I realized I left some clothes in our unit by mistake. We called Ed & he kindly offered to mail them to us. If you are considering this place for a private getaway with your significant other, DO IT! You won't be disappointed. I highly reccommend 2406 for it's amenities and location by the pool. You could comfortably have 2 couples stay in this unit without it being too cramped, which is exactly what we hope to do in the future. Thanks again Ed & Lourdes! You guys are wonderful hosts!

best kept secret in ft lauderdale

Excellent accomadations!!We had a 2 room house that was absolutely beautiful! Gorgeous pool area.I have stayed at every gay overpriced guesthouse in Ft luderdale and have found my new home at ED LUGOS !!! as the saying goes LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION !

Fantastic relaxing friendly resort!!

So this was our first time in Fort Lauderdale and I can honestly say that I chose the best place to stay as far as I'm concerned. Ed and Lourdes are the most friendly welcoming hosts, they ply you with drink as soon as you arrive and show you around the beautiful garden and pool area. The pool is cool in the day but in the evening it is heated which is great for that late night swim. There is a hot tub too and private shower. The rooms are perfect - they stock up the fridge with beer, coca cola and water and there are also snacks - all of which are complimentary. Rooms are really comfortable and clean and inviting. They do their best to make you feel welcome, giving you advice on where to go for nights out etc. We stayed for 3 nights and then travelled to Key West but had to break up the return journey so stayed at Ed Lugo's again for another night as we loved it so much. We did not want to leave!!! Unfortunately, I was stupid enough to leave my camera and necklace in one of the bedroom drawers and they called me to tell me. I was already in Orlando so they agreed to post it to me at home in the UK - and wouldn't take any money for doing so. Where would you get that kind of service in the UK????!!!! Thanks so much - I will definitely be returning, hopefully next year for my big 40... If you're gonna stay in Ft Lauderdale and want to be right where the gay village is (and I mean just across the road but being far enough away to feel like you are on your own private tropical island), then you HAVE to stay here!!!

The Best Place In Town

I went on my first vacation in 8 years. I looked up a few places and Ed Lugo was kind enough to accommodate me and my friend. They went above and beyond with excellent customer service. The care that they give their residents is just perfect. They create such an inviting and peaceful living space. The pool area is so exclusive and it feels like it's your own tropical backyard. The area is perfect for walking everywhere and it's super close to Ft Ld Beach and only about 25 min from Miami. I hope to make it down next year!! This place gets a 2 thumbs up from me!
