This property is amazing! Beautiful, well taken care of. Owners have thought of everything. It’s like staying in your own private resort.
10.0 / 10.0
We had a large family group of over 20 ranging in age from 2 to 83 and everyone had an amazing time. The property is a tropical pardise and is absolutely beautiful. The sunsets are spectacular and even the sunrises created a beautiful pink hued sky to admire. The bay was like glass all week, perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkeling. Adults and children alike enjoyed fishing right off the dock. And make sure you look in the rocks beneath the dock for the nurse sharks. Lets not forget the refreshing pools and hot tub. There are plenty of outdoor and indoor spaces to gather, to eat, to laugh, or play games. As well as plenty of area to retreat to for quiet, peaceful reflection, reading, or napping.
As for the cottages and the Ellis house, they fit our group perfectly. The owners thought of everything and were quick to respond to questions when asked.
The Keys Compound is in a perfect location for visiting any of the other Keys.
Would absolutely stay here again!

Our group consisted of four couples, two children under two, and grandma to watch the children. We stayed in the cottages, which had more than enough room for our group. The cottages were clean and any amenities you may need. The outdoor space was absolutely amazing. The pool, patio furniture, and play areas were immaculate. We also had a 25 foot center console, that was kept on property at their dock. It was easy to navigate in and out. Not to be overlooked, the property is on the bay side, so you will have the most gorgeous sunsets with unobstructed views.

I cannot say enough good things about our stay at this Vrbo property in the Florida Keys! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the host's thoughtfulness and attention to detail.
Not only is the house itself absolutely stunning, but it's also clear that the host has thought of everything to make their guests' stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
One of the highlights of our stay was the backyard and all that it had to offer. Everyone was able to keep themselves busy in some way whether that was kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, laying out in the sun, or even playing cornhole!
Not to mention that the property itself made for an amazing location to host a small wedding. It made for a perfect beachside wedding. Our guests had nothing but compliments and appreciation towards the property and the entire wedding coming together beautifully.
Thank you to Kelly and Greg for an amazing stay!

Newly Renovated & Amazingly Beautiful Property with numerous amenities for guests to enjoy! Spectacular sunsets are experienced from the cottages pool & tiki hut! Boat dock a plus whether you bring your own or rent from marina (Anchors Away) up the street. Experienced a couple issues but, property managers were quick to respond and send help. We would return and recommend for sure!!!

We came as a group to celebrate my 50th birthday. The campus is covered in wonderfully landscaped, tropical trees, shrubs, and flowers. The view is to die for and we were gifted beautiful sunsets each night. The hosts, Greg and Kelly, happened to be at their property next door and we made quick friends with them and their children. They were all as gracious as could be and responded very quickly to any minor requests or issues. The cottages seem to have everything that anyone needed but we frankly spent very little time indoors. It was simply too beautiful outside to miss a minute.

We could not of found a more perfect property for our family reunion!
The location, houses, dock, and pools made for a great stay and gave each of us something to do at all times.
The place is absolutely gorgeous. The palms and pools made for some incredible sunsets, and the landscaping provided a lot of privacy.
Gregory and Kelly also set us up with their butler service. Macarena was super friendly, taking care of all the dishes and most of the meal prep during our stay.
We loved our time there!

We had a large group of friends and family together and had so much fun. We love the keys and this property is amazing. We cooked on the grills, sat around the fire pit and enjoyed the private beach. The property is close by some great restaurants and attractions. The cottages had everything that our group needed, we’re already talking about getting together and booking for next year

We spent a whole month during the summer with our extended family and were the best vacations ever, Kelly and Greg were always a phone call away to take care of all our needs. The oceanfront views are paradisiacal. I definitely will be back.

This property is amazing and you feel like you’re in your own private island. The pictures do not do it any justice. We were a group of 19 and I have to admit that it was one of the best places we have ever stayed. Loved it and we want to go back!

Wonderful Family Getaway
Had an absolute amazing time at the Keys Compound! We rented the entire property for a week to get together with family from Minnesota and relax. This property was perfect for that! The sunsets from the beach were phenomenal ! Owner Kelli was amazing to deal with and fast with responses on any questions we had. We will definitely stay at this property again! Highly recommend.

Best Family Spot in the Keys
From the start the property owners were engaging and helpful at every turn. The facility was accurately represented and met our needs for my wife and I and our three grown children and their families. Having three separate homes allowed freedom for each family and a central meeting area in the Beach Cottage.We rented a boat for the week which was delivered and docked for immediate use. The water toys, paddle board, kayaks were all fun and fishing from the doc was great for kids and adults. In addition it felt like we were in our own private compound like one would have experience in the "old Keys". No resort traffic. No crazy neighbor. Just simply relaxed pleasure. It was truly a special find and for everyone in our family a special time.

Great place to get together with your friends and family.
It was a great week... Owners made sure all was set for us. We had zero issues with the complex and all enjoyed the week. Great sunsets and we really enjoyed the fire pit next to the water. If we go back to the Keys we will stay again...

Wow, wow wow!! BEST vacation I have EVER had!!!!
Friends - I can not say ENOUGH about our stay at this amazing oasis!! We came with our 2 kids (4 and 9 months), and two other couples - both had teen kids. Each family had their own cottage so it was so perfect to spend time together but to also we were able to spend time together. The cottages had literally every single thing we needed so it truly felt like home. We enjoyed the cottages but we also really enjoyed the private beach and docks. We LOVED using the tubes and the paddle boards and spent much of our time in the sun on the beach or in the water on the boards. We also rented a boat to go fishing and tubing and we were easily able to store it at the dock provided. We honestly felt like we were on our own private island in our own paradise. The owners were so accommodating and SO responsive. Our family will absolutely come back here and we would highly recommend staying here!

Keys Escape
This was an incredible find … like our own private resort! We rented the main house and the cottages together with our group of 20 and there was plenty of room to spare. The private beach, dock, and “tiki bar” were the perfect spot to get rays during the day and enjoy the sunsets, cocktails, and s’mores at night. The free access to the plethora of beach toys - kayaks, paddle boards, lily pad, etc. - were a really nice surprise. We also loved the huge open kitchen, living room and screened porch in the main house that could accommodate our whole group, while everyone still had their own private spaces in the cottages. It was a little pricey but worth every penny for such a secluded beachfront oasis. The only negatives - and they’re not big ones - are not being able to use the backyard behind the main house (it’s someone else’s property), and the surrounding area and neighboring houses are a little rundown, but you’ll never know it once you’re inside the Keys Compound. Thanks to Kelly and Greg for great communications before and during our stay, and for building such a special place to enjoy Spring Break with our family and friends!

Immaculate house, cottages and property
Absolutely gorgeous! There were 10 adults in our group. We used and enjoyed the entire property. Ellis house and cottages were super clean and stocked with everything we needed with plenty of extras.. Nice beach for sun and shade. Greg and Kelly were fantastic and promptly answered all of our questions. They also arranged for a fishing trip with Captain Mike on their beautiful boat. He was super fun and very knowledgeable. As an added bonus, we caught 10 tuna.! A great time was had by all! Thanks for letting us stay home in your beautiful home. We sure hope to come back..

Cottages on the bay
The owner had the property manager meet us as we arrived. He showed us around and got us familiar with each one of the cottages we were renting. We appreciate the one on one experience and also the suggestions for restaurants and activities in the area. The private beach was an oasis away from home. And the dock was all it was said to be, a wonderful fish sanctuary. The sunsets were incredible as well as the sunrises. We will felt like we were in a world of our own. Wonderful time had by all!

Amazing First Class Property
This property far exceeded expectations. We had a large family reunion around Christmas and the place was perfect. With the large house serving as the central meeting area, and the smaller houses providing plenty of privacy, it was a perfect set up. We will be making this an annual trip! The owners made the process so easy and were responsive to every request. .

Great quiet stay for a blended family
We were a group of 8 adults & 2 small kids (under 2). The 3 cottages provided ample space and our own ‘resort’ on the beach. We kayaked, read, made bonfires, lots of family meals and made some great memories. Thank you!!

Me and my family spent the most wonderful time at this property. The compound is a lovely place to stay, amazing sunsets, relaxing beach front view and the bonfires every nights made our time there perfect.

Fantastic Keys Compound!
This was the perfect set-up for a company trip with our employees and their families! The main house and the three cottages were clean, cozy, and well appointed with everything that we needed to make this an easy and care-free trip. Everyone had a great time, and there was plenty of sleeping space, towels, and recreational space and activities for all of us to enjoy together, regardless of age. Our host and property manager were responsive and checked in on us, making sure that everything was going well and there was nothing that was needed. There was one issue with a lock on a door, and it was handled right away. We hope to return next year! Thanks for your hospitality!
