The Best Place in the Keys

This house in the keys is over the top! Kitchen to die for! 25 mins from key west. 40 mins to the dolphin research center. In the hanger down stairs are bicycles and kayaks. The reef is just 35 mins away by boat. Playstations throughout the house. Jaccuzzi, hammock and barbaque - yes to die for! When you come to this house you forget you that there is a world outside of this place. One you rent this place you will come back year after year!

Had a great time in this house and the thing that i liked most about it, is that it catered to both the wild-spirited out-doorsy spirit in me as well as the tranquil version of me. I could choose to either go kayaking, snorkelling or jet-skiing, or just spend a calm evening in the hot tub watching the sunset with fabulous music in the background.... All in all, an experience I would never tire of repeating! Cudos!!!

Our family of four with alternating guests, had the most relaxing and wonderful time here. The home was immaculate with every need accounted for. This homes decor and amenities far exceeds most homes for rent in this price range. Access to Looe Key was about 20-25 minutes by boat and was the primary reason why we vacationed here since both our sons(15 & 18) are now certified divers. In all the years we have rented in the Keys this however was "the best diving ever", which we were concerned about since the oil spill was just months prior to our arriving. Thank God the reef and most of Florida was spared. My husband, the marine biologist and fisheries manager with NOAA was astonished at how well the reef has been protected over the past 20years. Friends who visited who don't dive, were just as shocked to find snorkeling at it's best. Sharks of all kinds, huge eagle-rays, small squid,eels, fish and coral galore so don't hesitate visiting even if your not certified. We found the dock to be perfect for our 25ft.Grady White with plenty of space for sunning and great access to the clear canal, particularly for our dogs! I'm a gourmet chef and was pleasantly surprised to find plenty of space and cooking utensils/appliances to choose from. In addition we were spoiled by the shower features in the fabulous bathrooms. The homes owner Bob was extremely pleasant to work with regarding contracts & dates and provided us with one of the most valuable assets to the property--his neighbor & caretaker Paul. Filled with a plethora of information & congeniality, we felt like we had known him all our lives which is why we plan on returning every summer!!

Family Vacation in Summerland Key

Review Submitted: 03/30/10
We absolutely loved staying at this home. The amenities were beyond any rental home we've stayed in previously. The decor was out of a magazine and every comfort we could want was provided. Location-wise, it was only 35-40 minutes to Key West which we visited frequently for beaches, shopping, dining and entertainment. We also spent a lot of time just relaxing at the house, kayaking in the canal and riding bikes. Lots of photo opportunities! Only downside is that third bedroom is not connected to the main floor. So if small children will be staying in that room it may not work out.

If you want peace and quiet, this is it. Want for nothing. Most major resorts cannot give you accomodations like this. Kid freindly as well as adult. Short drive to Key West for more sights and adventure. Can't wait to go back! A+++

A kitchen to die for - cooked thanksgiving dinner here! Oh yes - the kids - field day with the wireless sony play station - in every room! I would like to buy time share in this place - I LOVE IT...I will be coming back every year! Dolphin research center is just 30 mins north of here!

We stayed at this amazing house last October in 08! It was the most spectacular place we have ever been to!! Not only is the house heavenly, like out of a gallery; there is a boat, canoes, bikes, scuba diving equipment, a car to take to the city, and anything you can imagine! Even comes with Captain Paul :-)
