We were making last minute reservations during peak season (Feb.) and used the sunny.org site to find smaller hotels/motels. Patrick at the Villa Orleans was able to accommodate us with a few days before and after our Caribbean Cruise. The efficiency was clean and the grounds were immaculate. Patrick lives on the site and is therefore available for any concerns. The hotel is very close to A1A (but we blocked out the traffic noise by using the air conditioner and closing up at night) and within a short walk to the beach and all the excitement of the village center at the end of Commercial Street. The rooms were clean and there was a full kitchen (no dishwasher) and bath. The down sides were the need for new bathroom fixtures, the lack of a room phone, the lack of laundry facilities on the property. The price was right for that area at $122 (required in advance) a night and we would consider going there if we cruise from Ft. Lauderdale again. more
