"I had a great time living a Floyds for a little while. The location was prime for looking for work on yachts, and close to a bunch of stores. I had a chance to meet a lot of interesting people and have some good times on just hanging out on the patio at Floyds."

"Best deal on a cheap bed in town - just got better with numerous upgrades... close to most crew placement agencies and a short bus ride to the beach."

"I spent just over a month living in Floyd's and had the best time ever! Jobs were easy to come by as people come to Floyd's to find day workers.  I met friends I will keep for life and many other interesting folk too, from all over the world. Being at Floyd's was like having my very own American family. The 'BBQ Social Gatherings'  were an awesome networking tool as well as being fun and relaxing! My first ever American Thanksgiving was hosted by Floyd's and something I'll never forget. Floyd's was the very best time in Lauderdale and I hope to be back there again very soon."

"Fort Lauderdale's best hostel...something different. What he has created is a cross between a college dorm room, a nonstop picnic, and your first apartment. Very homey... Beneath shrubs sprouting red flowers practically year-round, a very international crowd hangs out in a mellow groove... If you're looking for adventure, this can be a great hostel to visit."

Fort Lauderdale


The City of Fort Lauderdale is situated on the southeast
coast of Florida, centrally located between Miami and
Palm Beach. Embraced by the Atlantic Ocean, New River
and a myriad of scenic inland waterways, Fort Lauderdale
truly lives up to its designation as the "Venice of America."
