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.
