Summary of reviews
Clean, spacious house in a quiet neighborhood with good amenities.
8.0 / 10.0
The complex is great: small, gated community, well-maintained, beautiful landscaping and nice pool. The condo itself was nice and the 3 bedrooms/3 bathrooms accommodated 3 couples. However, the downstairs shower leaked after every shower. We had to replace the batteries for the living room ceiling fan to work. Never got the TV to work.
6.0 / 10.0
Pros: nice quiet place, gated community, lovely pool area
Cons: pool had a locked gate which was a pain if our group split with the key, the house itself was in a poor state of repair with quite a few things going wrong during our stay. It feels like there is a lot of rotten wood around including the steps to the property (one of which dislodged exposing nails when I was walking up with suitcases), the downstairs shower leaked with water all over the floor, the door where the pool towels are fell off when I opened it, the batteries for the a/c unit failed causing it to stay on to 60 degrees (freezing), the upstairs balcony looked like it was coming away from the support (we didn’t use it), some of the ceiling fans didn’t work - those that did work couldn’t be turned off (again it was cold at night) and I couldn’t get the tv to work.
I did raise these issues with the agent and they did send a guy to fix the outside step (which was the most dangerous item) but none of the other faults were addressed during our stay nor did they acknowledge them.
The place is lovely but really does need some serious structural renovation work and a bit more attention to detail.

Gate code changed but not notified had to wait for someone to come along to get in. Mold in downstairs shower area. Floor felt spongy
4.0 / 10.0
The house was clean but there were several issues that I had to report and some that didn’t get resolved. The downstairs shower door doesn’t seal so it flooded the bathroom floor on our first night and we had to use 4 towels to soak up the water. This is clearly an ongoing issue because the bathroom floor was spongy. The commode in one of the upstairs bathrooms wouldn’t refill the bowl and flush. Maintenance had to come out and fix it. We couldn’t get the lights to work in dining room and living room. I reported it the first night and someone came to the house when we were out and took the battery out of the bedroom on 1st floor, so that light wasn’t working. I kept reporting the issues and all I’d get in return was “sorry for your experience”.
Also, the gate code was changed mid-week and we were stuck outside the gate until someone walked by and told us the new code. Overall, it was a frustrating experience and poor customer service.
10.0 / 10.0
Great rental and location. We enjoyed the pool as well. Only thing I would add is that the room with the double beds did not have a tv. Not a big deal but it’s nice to wind down in your room with the tv on at the end of the day.

Very clean. Good size for a family with older kids who want their own space. We enjoyed reading and drinking coffee on the porches.

We loved the property and the amenities provided. The only downfall is we couldn’t enjoy outside on the porch too much due to bug bites.

Visited Key West for a guys trip with my 2 childhood friends. We typically stay at a hotel sharing a room taking turns on the sofa bed. But this trip, my wife took over the planning and I am sure glad she did! For the same cost of one hotel room, we each had our own room and bathroom. Having a kitchen saved $ as we could cook some meals and the washer & dryer allowed us to pack light. Everything was clean, in working order and the pool made for lounging during those 100 degree weather days. Justin checked in before, during and after our stay to make sure everything was great which it was and while we did not need to contact him, knowing they were available gave us peace of mind. Would highly recommend to anyone considering a trip who may not realize there are alternatives to hotels.

Location of house not in town actually a plus so different parts of keys accessed more easily. House is comfortable and support staff managed a few minor lighting details apparent on our arrival.

Great place except for bathroom downstairs.....
The condo was neat, clean and comfortable for our 4 night stay. However the bathroom for the downstairs bedroom had mildew in the shower and a tile came loose at the bottom. Also the toilet was loose from the floor. The ceiling fan in the bedroom also stopped working the second night. Overall it was a pleasant stay with just these few exceptions.

Below Expectations
I would not stay at this property again.
The issues...
Fire Alarm went of multiple times for no reason. We called and they sent a tech out who said hed be back with new ones. Never came back, and then we could not get the alarms to beep even when testing. Im not saying they were disabled, but im not *not* saying they were.
The bathroom downstairs had tiles falling into the shower with voids behind them and some mold growth behind it. It appears to be an on going issue.
The TV in the main room is about the size of an IPAD, the TV upstairs is an old tube TV that half works.
This unit is directly across from a Pepsi distribution center and its noisy early in the AM.
Overall, this is a budget type rental where the owner invests nothing into it but charges a premium price. We went down with family and had rented 2 other units in the development. Those units cost less and were in much better condition.
The community pool was very nice. I would stay in this community again, but not this particular unit.

Ok stay
Positives:
The management answered right away when the code didn’t work to get into the house and it was resolved immediately. The pool area was great! It was pretty quiet aside from the roosters, but that comes with the territory. We had all the things we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms. The patio was perfect to sit on for morning coffee and evening hanging out.
Negatives:
We noticed upon arrival that the bed frame in the master was coming apart and broken. The light switches in the master didn’t run anything and we could not turn off the ceiling fan - just the light with the pull cord. The outlet didn’t work in the guest room downstairs next to the bed. The TV reposted did not work in the master bedroom, and the TV was stuck in a language we didn’t know.

Overpriced and underwhelmed
The place was clean on arrival, but that’s the only positive thing I can say. The appliances are all in disrepair, and we found out the management company is aware of the problems and did not notify us prior to arrival. This was especially aggravating because our family of 5 packed with the expectation of having access to a washer/dryer that has not been working for months. Additionally, the stovetop only has 2 working burners, the oven door doesn’t close, and the refrigerator leaks water all over the kitchen floor. But the worst part is the whole house smoke alarm that goes off intermittently for no reason. At least 7 times during our stay the ear piercing alarm woke us up, kept us up, or drove us out of the house.
And then there were the cockroaches …
This property is overpriced and underwhelming.

Great stay for Thanksgiving!
We enjoyed the house during our stay! Parking was right out front of the house. The heated pool was amazing and quiet. We also really loved watching the roasters and hens around the neighborhood! That was definitely interesting to watch. No complaints here. We’ll be back next year!!

Not as good as others in Coral Hammock
I expected that the issues raised in the previous reviews would have been taken care of- but they were not. Washer broken (had to go out to do laundry). Appliances poor, oven door broken, tiles falling out in shower, floor seems warped/ damaged in first floor Bathroom. Refrigerator leaks. Not much in the way of cups/cooking utensils. Burner out on cook top. All of these issues have been mentioned in previous reviews. I called for maintenance and never received a return call. Will not stay here again. Not what I am used to when staying at Coral Hammock. This is my 5-6 stay in complex. First time I have had issues

Poorly maintained
1) refrigerator leaked water daily.
2) floors were dirty and left your bare feet black after walking around on them.
3) no broom and cleaning products there to use.
4) washing machine didn’t work. It wasn’t repaired during our stay because they had to order the parts. So we asked housekeeping to bring us fresh towels midweek but they never did.
5) flooring in a down stairs bathroom had a damaged area the could hurt bare feet.

Lovely house
Lovely house perfect for a family of 6 with the 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Everything was clean and it was well equipped. Our only disappointment was no barbecue. That is a must on a vacation

Comfortable Location
The house is clean and comfortable. It is in a great location, secured community with a very nice pool. The kitchen could use some stocking as the cookware selection is minimal and the China is unnecessary. We've stayed in this home a few times now and has become our go to for family vacations.

Definitely go back!
Clean and easy check in process! Only thing missing was more cooking utensils and a grill but overall good place!

Clean and spacious
We have stayed at this complex multiple times, but this was our first time in this particular unit. It was very clean and spacious. Plenty of towels were provided, as well as oversized beach towels, which was appreciated. In terms of location, I prefer to stay in a unit facing the pool. This one faced the road, which wasn't a surprise (accurately described/pictured). With our last minute booking, we were happy to have found this available. Vacasa manages the unit and their customer service was great.

Sisters/Cousins Trip
Property was spacious and in a great location, about a 14 minute car ride to Duvall Street. House does need some cosmetic updating: bedroom TVs should be updated to flat screen, living room TV should be larger, bed skirts and covering should be updated, rug in living room looks worn and dirty, shower curtains need updating, curtain in upstairs twin bedroom is torn. Light fixtures covers on ceiling fans in living room and dining room should be changed from frosted covers to allow more light.

This was a great property to stay at.
The family stayed here while visiting my son who’s currently serving in the Navy. The property was far from the action of Duval street and Mallory square, but close enough to drive. The property was cozy and comfortable for all 5 of us. The kitchen was lacking some basic tools (pitcher for orange juice, coffee mugs, extra paper towels and napkins) and the dining room chairs had loose bolts. But other wise, it was a great stay. We’d definitely stay again.
