Thank goodness I was there for the fellowship with my dear friend, beach time & good food! My 1st room was cleaned just before I entered and I found dark hair in a few areas of the bathroom. The bathroom window had a torn screen big enough for an arm to fit through. I took pics in disbelief! And I was unable to lock it securely. I was on the 1st floor. My room key/card was unreliable and I was locked out. The office was notified of my concerns and ultimately gave me a different room. Better room with kitchenette upgrade for no extra fee, but still on 1st floor and I couldn’t see out of the peephole. I had the do not disturb sign on the outside side of my door and house keeping entered anyway and took one of my personal towels out! What?! I did again notify the office and my towel was retrieved. Would not go back or recommend.

Still our favorite hotel in Lauderdale by the Sea. Our host Alba and her husband are so sweet and accommodating. I can not say enough good things about the Blue Strawberry. We come every year and will continue to do so. Perfect location, 2 pools, impeccably clean. Just a wonderful place to stay!

We stayed for 4 nights- shopping and restaurants close by. Beach is just seconds away - room was clean. Staff are super friendly - other guests were quiet. Access to beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels is a huge plus!

Well, it was just close to the places where all my friends were staying. So it was very convenient in that sense. Also, it was very close to the shopping area and restaurants and it was very clean and nice. I’m definitely going back there.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The staff was great! The room was comfortable and the pool area nice. Close enough to walk to dinner and beach. The downside was our room was not updated like the pictures on Expedia showed. There was just a sink, toilet, and very old tub/shower in the bathroom. No vanity to put any toiletries and not outlets in bathroom. Made it vey difficult for my wife to get ready.

Cleaning/maintenance staff were Great! A . Office/manager not so much...pretty rude and unaccomodating. We asked a few questions and were greeted w/glares and gruff answers. Everyone has a bad day but seemed to be a pattern. Not all are tryi g to pull one over...
