Garden Oasis with Private Heated Pool & Spa, 2 miles from Fort Lauderdale Beach

"The Buddha Sanctuary" is a unique tropical oasis experience with beautiful gardens around the property. There are several fruit trees that ripen at different times throughout the year.

Enjoy private use of the "The Zen Pool," a heated pool and spa. Catch some sun or relax with the calming sounds of the poolside bamboo swaying in the wind. Or make it a pool day with the BBQ grill and poolside refrigerator for drinks. At night, enjoy the combination of warm glows from the garden contrasting with the blue pool lighting. Life is good, sit back and look up at the stars.

The property is enclosed with a tall wraparound fence, trees, and plants with locked entry for additional security and privacy.

Family trip

The pool and spa are very nice and clean. The rental is part of a rental complex. It was deceiving that the pictures shows like a single home. The area is transitional and if you are not from the area or not used to a dense urban area you could feel uncomfortable. The space is cozy and well maintained. It is a great place to stay if you are planning on visiting the area.

Wonderful and so relaxing stay at the Buddha sanctuary . It was incredibly comfortable, and we truly appreciated all the thoughtful touches put into making the experience so relaxing and so comfy .

Great Host / Comfortable Stay

We were in town for a work trip and the location for this stay made it easy to get around. The host, Hatsi, is an excellent communicator, was always quick to respond and very friendly. The property is in relatively close proximity to other houses but doesn't feel like it because of the beautiful trees, shrubs, and gate that surround the property and pool. It was a very comfortable property with pretty much anything you would need. Easy recommendation and would definitely stay there again!

GREAT HOST AND BUDDA PROPERTY

We have stayed at many properties. The host Hatshi was by far the best host we have. The communication was great with Hatsi. The property was as advertised. Very clean,well stocked. Pool was cleaned twice in a five day stay. This is well a Hurricane passed through. We highly recommend the Host and property. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

Perfect home for small family

As soon as we entered the gate we fell in love with this property. The outside, including pool and hot tub were maintained very well. The inside, my family of 3 had the comfort and privacy to enjoy this cozy home. The host, just amazing! This home provides everything you need and if ever in the area again we will definitely rent again!

Stayed during the first week of February. The house and kitchen were fully equipped. The private backyard, pool and hot tub were what attracted us to this property - it didn't disappoint. Communication with the owner prior to our visit and during our visit were great. We would book again.
