We stayed at 15FTL for 4 nights for a spring break trip; in a word, it was incredible! The property is paradise; clean, comfortable and really beautiful. Walt was kind, helpful and a great host. We can't wait to visit again!

Do not be fooled by the past reviews! This is not the New Zealand House and it shared nothing in common with it except a location at the same address. New owners, new rules as well as new furnishings. Anything before 2011 shouldn't be factored into your decision (and I am disappointed that the reviews were merged). This facility, unlike... More

Well I guess you really don't like the changes we have brought to the property. It was in fact a gay men's clothing optional hotel before and that certainly "Does Not" fit our plans for the property into the future. Nor are we "gay only". So far Our over all clientele have all expressed their approval of being able to... More

I stayed at 15 FTL for a weekend in late March 2013. Upon my arrival, Walt greeted me and provided me with great information about the area, as well as some guides and maps to get around. The room was very clean, modern, and well decorated. The bathroom was really nice, including the provided personal care items. The breakfast was... More

Found this last minute on TripAdvisor & wildly exceeded our expectations! We spent quite a bit of time talking to owner who chiefly operates and cares for entire property himself & has spared no expense or small detail you'd expect of a cozy B&B. Modern & cleanly designed comfortable rooms, relaxing 24hr heated pool in a garden setting, beach chairs/umbrellas/towels... More

Finished out a FL trip with 1 night in Rm 7 (King suite). Our room was very well appointed--modern chic decor with high quality linens. Shower had extra jets (so awesome that I asked the hubs if we could get some in our shower at home! :) with lots of extra mirrors for getting ready (including a great full-length one--perfect!)...

Thank you for the nice review and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Wifi can be an issue at times in the back of the hotel but is very good up towards the front and pool area. With so many I phones, pads, lap tops going at once it can drag the system down here and there. We are trying... More

We traveled to Ft Lauderdale to escape the cold of winter for a family spring break. 15 FTL provided a clean and very relaxing environment that allowed us to truly unwind in spring sunshine. The pool and patio area is by far the best feature and always a warm 82 degrees (even if it was colder outside). They provide a... More

Dreadful manager/owner. Is unable to deal with client concerns without becoming abusive and suggesting finding alternative accommodation. Not worth the rating- can provide further details for possible future guests if required, however, look elsewhere.

Madam, You called the office late at night yelling at the owner about internet connection. You were the one who started the conversation off at a bad start. Internet services are free and offered to our customers as best we can. If the system goes down for a short spell we can not control the utilities in that respect. It... More

When a guest gets abusive to the employees and the other guests we do indeed ask them to leave the property. You are wrong about your friends stay 3 years ago as we did not own it 3 years ago. The property since we have owned it is open to all guests male/female and 18 years or older. You simply... More
