We chose Abey’s house for its proximity to The Everglades National Park. It is in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. The house is as described in the listing. There are restaurants, pharmacies and supermarkets within a short drive. We have everything we need in the house. In between dining outside, we cooked pasta twice for dinner. Highly recommend it.

The beds were comfortable and if the AC had been on when we arrived, the stay would have been absolutely perfect. It didn’t cool off until the middle of the night so it was a difficult sleep but the next night was a dream. Great neighborhood and great location.

Everything is good. The house provides everything we needed when we were there. The house is very clean. Abe is very kind and responded always timely.

The house is nice. The beds are comfy and exactly as described. It is obvious that someone lives in it as the refrigerator was stocked with food and there was no room in the freezer. The pantry is full of food as well. If you need a place to just sleep, this is the place for you. The "property manager" would not allow us to cancel because we requested on the 29th day instead of the 30th. When there was an issue with one of the television sets, apparently he called, when I did not answer a number that I did not recognize, he sent a text demanding that I answer the phone. Not how I do business, so I will not return. But again, if you just need a place to sleep, this is nicer than a hotel.

The place was awesome for us. The beds were very comfy and the host was very hospitable.

What a perfect family house to use - quiet neighborhood, well stocked home, easy to the National Parks.

There was a hiccup on the property being cleaned as the cleaning company did not make it. However with a few conversations with Abey and a few calls out to other cleaning companies one was located that evening and sent over and everything was taken care of in the end.

After spending the night in this house, we were SHOCKED when the owner came down the stairs while we were cooking breakfast at 11 AM! We had NO IDEA there was a master suite upstairs, or that he was staying there while we slept. He asked the day before when we would arrive, to which I responded (via VRBO) "sometime after 6 PM". We arrived after 11 PM. We visited until about 1 AM and went to bed. The next morning, we got up, showered and were preparing breakfast in the kitchen around 11 AM when Abey came down the stairs into the room! This means he was in the house for at least 12 hours before coming downstairs. We felt that our privacy had been violated, to say the least! After coming down the stairs, Abey asked if I got his message. I responded that I had not. I then looked and found a message in my email from VRBO sent at 4:50 AM. It stated, "I hope you guys are well settled, I'm in my room and fell asleep while waiting for you guys yesterday. I will see you in the morning before leaving." We would NEVER have rented this home if we had known the owner would be sleeping upstairs (undisclosed) while we were in the house. There was NO reason for him to wait for us to arrive. We have never had a host wait to "show you around" at a VRBO or any other vacation rental. We asked about a DVD player. He went upstairs to his room and came down with 2 DVD players in boxes. He tried unsuccessfully for over 30 minutes to connect the DVD player to the tv while we uncomfortably ate breakfast about 15 feet away from him. He stayed in the room playing with the tv while we prepared to leave for the day. None of the TVs in the house worked. When we left, he was still in the house. We felt uneasy about leaving our belongings while he was there, and we had no guarantee that he would leave during the day. We asked him directly if he would be there that night. He told us he would shower and then leave the house. His car was in the locked garage, so we couldn't see if he left. We returned around midnight and wondered all night if he was upstairs. There was no way for us to know. There were Sonos speakers with microphones in every room and two in the kitchen area. There was a security system with a screen on the wall near the kitchen. We wondered if our conversations were being monitored or if we were being watched. Abey has great reviews, but staying in his house while he was hidden upstairs was upsetting and very creepy!!

We got to know Abey the first night staying with us. He is a great and gracious host. He meet every accommodation or need we had. We had plenty of room to spread out and loved the kitchen and living areas. We never heard any dogs barking over four nights stay as was complained about in other posts. The location of the house is the perfect distance from Miami or the Keys.

The property was easy to find, very clean and in a convenient location. We would stay again!

This is an amazing property and Abbey was great to work with. Very available and helpful.

An excellent property in a very nice neighborhood and location (i.e., close freeway and grocery store). Host (Abey) is very responsive and has done a great job making sure our stay is comfortable. Will definitely return in future trips to the area. Highly recommended.

We were in town to attend my mothers funeral. Abey opened his home to allow us a comfortable and quiet environment to celebrate her life with family. We appreciate the compassion and care shown. House was as advertised and well stocked with more than we could ask for. Thanks!

The property is close to the Keys and all attractions in Miami. The neighborhood is easy to get in and out of. Property has grocery stores, convenient stores, drug stores all close by. Had some issues with dogs barking the first two nights but after that it wasn’t a problem. We visited on a busy holiday week so maybe that isn't normal. Overall the property was good for what we needed.

First, this VRBO rental is beautiful and located in a great neighborhood. Property owner is very kind. As other reviews have noted, there is a dog nearby that barks occasionally, but this was never loud enough to bother us. There is a outdoor gym for working out just a few blocks away. We used that many times. We did do a lot of cleaning, floors, dishes, counters and rugs as the prior guest and/or cleaning person didn’t do a quality job. There was rice on the counter and floor, and food stuck on the dishes put away in the cabinets. We left the home much cleaner for the next guest renting the home. Thanks for everything, overall it was a wonderful stay and central to many attractions.

My family and I had a very comfortable stay here. Such a beautiful home and in a nice, quiet, safe neighborhood. The host was amazing and made everything so easy. I would definitely recommend this house for any family traveling south Florida.

The house was amazing, community and our overall trip! Definitely recommend!

Great location, rooms and bedding are comfortable, do need some floor cleaning, overall we enjoyed our stayed.

The property was very nice, clean, and in a very secure neighborhood. Super close to shopping for all the essentials you need. The property was very well equipped with everything we needed. It was also within 30 minutes of everything we were doing, zoo, aquarium, and airport. The only glitch we had was sent the wrong entry code by accident. They responded to us super fast. We would definitely stay there again.

The property was spacious, well maintained, well supplied and generally clean. It worked very well for our family of 8. Other guests may wish to know that the house was quite warm (>81 degrees) upon arrival, and took a while for the upstairs bedrooms to cool. The ac was remotely turned up while we were gone during the day, and the house was again over 80 degrees when we returned from activities on the second day. The owner left warnings that the ac must not be turned below 72 degrees or the guests would be evicted without refund. There was also a barking dog left outside for hours next door both nights that was disturbing, but the neighborhood was otherwise very nice, quiet and safe. Overall, the house was very comfortable and was in a great location to enjoy Miami, the Keys and Everglades, and we enjoyed our stay.
