33 Luxury Villas in Fort Lauderdale
Fort Lauderdale earned its nickname "Venice of America" honestly -- over 165 miles of navigable waterways thread through the city, and many of our villas here come with their own private dock. This is a boating town first: yacht culture, waterfront dining along Las Olas Boulevard, and easy access to barrier-island beaches without the density of Miami an hour south.
Every villa in our Fort Lauderdale collection is handpicked and personally verified by our team -- a private pool, real bedrooms for your group, and for many homes, water access most guests can't get anywhere else. Book direct and your stay includes five-star concierge service: private chef, grocery stocking, boat charters and yacht rentals, and airport transfers.
Fort Lauderdale books out fast around the Boat Show (late October) and the winter high season. Reserve early for waterfront homes especially -- they're the first to go.
Making the most of South Florida? Our Miami luxury villa rentals and Miami Beach villas are less than an hour south, so you can split a stay between the canals of Fort Lauderdale and the beaches of Miami.

Fort Lauderdale has the same South Florida climate and beaches with a calmer, more residential feel and a much bigger boating culture -- many of our villas here have private docks, which is rare in Miami proper.

Several of our Fort Lauderdale villas include a private dock, and our concierge team can arrange boat charters and yacht rentals for any stay.
When is Fort Lauderdale's busiest season?
The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (late October) and winter (November-April) are peak season -- book waterfront homes especially early for those windows.
Do you have villas near Las Olas Boulevard?
Yes, our collection includes homes near Las Olas' restaurants and shopping as well as quieter canal-front properties elsewhere in the city.
