This was our first time coming to Cheston House and will not be our last. The staff Chuck, Lawrence, and Larry were all great. Chuck went above and beyond for me. One morning I woke up and broke my eye glasses well Chuck told me to go to his eye doctor and tell him that Chuck sent me and his... More

Our recent stay at the Cheston House was our third in the past five years. Unfortunately, we did not enjoy this visit as much as in the past and the quality and service at this resort seem to be slipping. Our room was large, with an extra sitting room, but with the older furniture and air conditioner located there, it's... More

My bf and I set aside the time to come on vacation to sunny Ft Lauderdale. We called ahead and made reservations to stay at The Palm Plaza(where we have stayed before). When we arrived for our stay, we were informed that the pool area was going to be closed due to maintenance and there was no estimated time it... More

My boyfriend, and I like it very much, and will indeed return. I live in nyc, so the quiet, and relaxed atmosphere was perfect. The pool was heated, and clean, I love my room - a very large studio, but more like an open concept 1 bedroom, large living room upon entering, and then the bedroom. The room also had... More

This was my third stay at a gay owned hotel in Ft Lauderdale and I must say, this was my favorite by far. The Cheston House is wonderfully located two blocks from the beach. The rooms are huge and fairly modern looking...nice decor. It was clean as a whistle to boot. A resort? More like a gay men's retreat. There... More

We stayed at the gay resort in Fort Lauderdale, known as Cheston House from January 24th to February 4th 2013. What a huge disappointment! When we initially booked with Chuck, we were led to believe that they were booked solid for the entire duration of our stay. In fact, most of the time that we were there, it was more... More

One big disappointment. Didn't help that I was there when it was less than half occupied. Purple wall in my room was not something I liked. Earthy toned bathroom took a bit of getting used to. Was surprised to have a microwave; knew there'd be a fridge. No concerns with cleanliness. Pool was fine - and you could certainly get... More

Upon arrival I wasn't sure what to expect. I soon found out. Although the room was clean, it lacked any resemblance to a "Resort". There was an orange extension cord connecting the air-conditioner through the wall to the other side. There were tin pans outside under the units, I assume to prevent water from seeping onto the few guests below.... More

I stayed here for one week during November and whilst the resort attracts an older clientele it is equally suited to younger visitors as well. There is a poolside friendliness without being overbearing or affecting privacy if that's what you prefer. Rooms are clean and service is impecable; nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Located a short two... More
