Excuse me for posting this in the wrong section of this forum... I will be moving to Ft. Lauderdale in a fortnight to work with a company in the yachting industry (superyachts). I was wondering what my options are for cheap, yet comfortable, accomodation in the Ft. Lauderdale area. Obviously as close to 17th street as possible. Is Smart-Move any good? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Bas
I have seve3ral suggestions for you - Smart Moves is not one of them. Call Nancy Sherwood @ (954) 779-2568. She has a nice cottage for rent and lots of contacts that are worth knowing, plus job leads. also, I have 2 beds for rent in my second bedroom, there is currently a chef renting in that room, but if you don't mind sharing... $125/week for a bed, nice little house, good location, and I can help with job leads. If you want to be on 17th St. STAY OUT OF FLOYD'S! there are a couple of really nice places owned by D.J. Parker ( think that's her name) I don't have her number on hand,but I can dig it up. Her places are really really nice, but you pay more for them. Oh yeah and there's a house on US1 near 17th that has space open - kinda a party house, but good digs in close proximity to everything you need.

I am a yacht chef myself and I have stayed in some really bad crew houses in my time. I decided if I ever made it big, I'd build a crew house that people would love to stay in.
