Property is close to downtown Lauderdale by the Sea and beach. Pool got shut down when we were their for 1 1/2 days and not really enough chairs for guests at pool.

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!

From the moment you arrive you realize that this is a business that really cares. With updated rooms and staff that are so friendly and helpful. Easy parking and just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. This is somewhere I will recommend to all future friends and family staying in town.

The blue strawberry gets an A for cleanliness and a C- for antiquated rooms. The cabinets in the kitchenette were from the 1050’s. Overall, the whole hotel is in need of a complete renovation! The air conditioning was as loud as a freight train, so loud that you could barely hear the TV. The pool gunite needs to be stripped and refinished as it’s flaking off in the pool.

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.
