We loved everything about this home! The home was perfect for a group of three couples with each having their own separate bedroom and bathroom. When we weren’t outside swimming, kayaking or offshore fishing we spent a huge amount of time on the back porch where the views are amazing. We ate all of our meals on the porch, watched the sunset, enjoyed the show the manatees gave us and admired the beautiful boats passing by. The property is very private and beautiful and the dock was very accommodating for our boat. Great location for shopping and many restaurants nearby. We won’t hesitate to book this piece of paradise again! This property is by far our favorite! Thank you Ron and Joely for sharing your piece of paradise!

When we checked in, the home owner stated the pool was checked and ready to go. After checking it out, the water was not clear and there was algae on the sides of the pool. The home owner called and got someone to come clean it but the pool cleaner told us with all the chemicals she was needing to use the pool would be inoperable for a couple of days. This was pretty upsetting since the pool was the main reason we rented the house. You do have use of the Cabana Club, which does have a nice pool.The only problem is there are alot of kids running and jumping into the pool splashing around and is not very relaxing if that is what you are looking for. The cleanliness of the house could have been better. The floors were very dirty. While walking barefoot on the tile flooring, our bottoms of our feet were black. We went and purchased a Swiffer mop to clean the floors. The bathrooms had body hair still in the tubs. It's a nice property once they get the pool figured out. Hopefully, with the new pool cleaner, it will be better. It might benefit changing cleaning staff as well. The owner was quick to respond and did refund a small portion of our money. Unfortunately, I wouldnt stay here again.

Love the location and views. The screened in porch is great. There is lots of great things about this place. Kayaks, paddle boards, manatees, close to the local sandbar by boat and the Atlantic. Great fishing, iguanas, dock, bikes and kitchen has a lot that you don’t have to buy. This is our second time staying. I rated a 4 this time only because both times we’ve had pool issues. They compensated for it. I would still recommend it. You have access to the cabana club / pool also if needed. They are very quick to respond.

We loved the house, location and view. It's perfectly located at the end of a quiet street over looking the bay. Really feels like you're on a private island. This is the first house we've rented in the keys, ski country, etc., that had great seating. Plenty of comfortable couches that fit people over 6'! Bonus with 2 primary bedrooms. Might be time for a new mattress in the main primary. The kitchen was well stocked. Kudos for having a 4 cup measuring cup! The pool is receiving new tile and will be a stunner. May already be complete. Appreciate owners that are responsive and make improvements to their property. Fantastic dock with near by boat rental (Coco's). Diving and snorkeling straight out of channel at Coffin's corner. We plan on returning next year for 2 weeks! Can't wait!
