The best vacation so far!! me and my boyfriend were staying in this studio for 2 weeks in october, we had such a great experience, owners were very friendly and helpful, especially Tomiko was soo nice and always was happy to help! Thank you so much, Tomiko! Domo Arigato!!
studio was exactly the same as on pictures, view from balcony was gorgeous, balcony has chairs and tables, we enjoyed out breakfast or evening tea there. studio has small kitchen, plates, pots, silverwear and everything needed for cooking are there, very convenient to have breakfast or some dinners at home, if you would like to save money on food. plenty of towels,basic amenitiest, has beach chairs and beach umbrella in a room, if you would like to go to a different beach very helpful to have those. location was great as well, 7 min drive to las olas blvd, 10 min from pompano beach, and next to hotel are plenty of stores and food market..also bus stop across the street,parking is included in a stay, we didnt bother to ask for valet parking, you can park your car yourself. tomiko will give you a parking number.
overall the stay was pleasant and we enjoyed every minute of it. we didnt try All you can eat Lobster in Tokyo Blue Restaurant downstairs, but there is a very nice restaurant next to hotel, Greek Ireland, cheap and good :)also 10 min walk there is Italian Bakery, must taste the desserts, so delicious.
we will be coming back for sure!! cant wait for our next vacation!! Highly recomend this appartment!!

I apologize the initial review got sent before I finished.

After much debate if we should stay in a hotel or do a vacation rental , the room at Ocean Manor won.

The communication between the owner assistant and I was amazing. They had no problems answering all of our questions and concern.
Upon our arrival we were met by Tomiko, she showed us up to our room. It looks exactly like the pictures. It was clean and up to date . It contained:
-1 Queen sized bed
-1 table with 2 chairs
-Fridge
-Stove top
-Microwave
-Full Bathroom
-Desk/Chair
-TV /DVD player
-WIFI( amazing signal)
-Chairs for outside
-Plenty of towels
-Basic supplied

We did not rent a car and had no problem getting around on transit which stops in front of the building. It is across the street from teh grocery store so shopping was not difficult.

Tomiko was very helpful in answering our question about attractions and how to get around.

My boyfriend and I appreciated the easy access to the beach. They don't like you bring drinks and stuff down so we put our towels and drinks in the bag and went. There didn't seem to be any problem. The restaurant downstairs had a "all you can eat " lobster night for $40 a person. Great way to start out vacation.

There were some minor repairs that needed to be done,we informed the owner of this and they were having it taken care of right away.

I can't wait to go back !

The owners were welcoming and went out of their way to make our stay pleasant. I would highly recommend this rental for a couple or couple with a small child.
