We had a fantastic experience at the Ocean Isle resort! The accomodations were very nice, very clean and well organized. The pool was warm and inviting. The owners did a great job communicating and were helpful with all our in advance questions. We rented a boat nearby and parked it overnight in the easily accessible boat slip. Plenty of fishing and snorkeling close. The area is very relaxing and some gorgeous views early and late in the day. We found some great seafood at some spots in nearby Islamarada. We took a day trip down to Key West. We liked the location as it was a middle way down in the Keys. Perfect for driving from South FL airports. At night, you can see Stars that you didn't know existed! A real stunner! We would definitley recommend this spot for a nice, quiet getaway. Give it a try!!

Owner response:We very much enjoyed having you and look forward to your next visit with us.

Die Wohnung ist in einem Topzustand und sehr sauber. Die Anlage ist ruhig und ideal zum Entspannen. Die Nachbarn in der Anlage waren alles ehr nett und entspannt. Der die direkte Zugang zum Atlantik ist für Offshoreangler ideal. Aber Au h die Tarpons tummeln sich in Minutennähe zur Anlage. Wir haben super Tage dort verbracht und der Kontakt zu den Vermietern Bob und Carol war spitze. Wonderful area for fishing and relaxing vacation. Really good condition and very clean Condo. Nice contact to owners Bob and Carol. We would like to come back some day.

Owner response:We are so glad that you enjoyed your visit. See you again soon

Best vacation rental that we have ever stayed at!

We have stayed at many vacation homes and this has to be the best one ever. The condo is very clean and well maintained. It is beautifully decorated with quality appliances, furniture, beds and bedding. The pool is very close and crystal clean. Bob and Carol, the owners, make you feel as though you've known them forever and have thought of everything to make your vacation great. There is the most beautiful view of the ocean and it's literally right off of the deck. There are beautiful sunrises every morning visable from both decks and from the master bedroom you can see the stars at night from your bed. The neighbors are all very friendly and make you feel very welcome. The location gets you away from all of the hum bug and is just a few miles away to shopping and lots of good food! Our family of 5 adults was very comfortable with lots of room. I would never stay anywhere else but here if and when we ever visit the Keys again. This place will absolutely take your breath away with its beauty! The only problem we had was that we didn't want to leave.

Owner response:You are too kind but thank you. It was our pleasure having you as our Guests

Fabulous Vacation Get-Away

Guest: Howland (Michigan)
Date of Stay: 01/22/10 Review Submitted: 01/31/10

If you're looking for a beautiful, laid-back vacation spot—this is the place for you! The location is very private, gated, and the condo boasts incredible views of both the Ocean and the Gulf. The unit is very spacious and clean and the two decks are great spots for bird-watching or star-gazing. You might spend your time relaxing in the condo or on the decks, swimming in the crystal clear pool, fishing for whatever might be biting, or taking a short trip to neighboring Keys for fantastic shopping (lots of local artists) and superb dining. If you want a nice day trip, Key West is just an hour and a half away. You won't want to miss out on this fantastic vacation opportunity.

Owner response:These fine folks have certainly discovered what we always hold to be true, " The Keys isn't just a location, it's a lifestyle"

We stayed here in November of 2009. The accomodations were even better than the photos provided. Very spacious, clean and comfortable. Excellent views, very private decks and a very warm pool. Great access to the water in one of the most laid back areas of the Keys! We had a great vacation and will be staying here again!

We recently stayed here on our first trip to the Keys, and what a GREAT place to be!!! The location is excellent, out of the mainstream population but close enough to see all of the keys in short distance. The condo itself is excellent, extremely clean and well kept, literally ON the water, and a view all day and night like no other!! Plenty of room for plenty of people and all the comforts of home! Check out the pictures of the master suite!!! WOW!! The decks are fabulous, very cool deck furniture and lots of room. We had a boat and the slip was easy to navigate, so convenient to great fishing. We'll definitely go back, no reason not to, just a perfect spot and accommodations. We highly recommend this place!!!!

Fantastic condo in a fantastic location

Guest: Bill Feldpausch (Phoenix, Arizona)
Date of Stay: 10/31/09 Review Submitted: 11/22/09

We stayed a week at this Condo & had a fantastic time. There was plenty of room in this 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 story condo. Gorgeous views of the Atlantic Ocean from both decks, one on each floor, and you have the Gulf of Mexico (also called the Bay) from the back bedrooms. Very nice large open kitchen/family room/dining room. Plus, the condo was very clean. The swimming pool was very nice. There is a boat slip available also. We were only a little over an hour drive to Key West and the views are spectacular. There is a lot to do, or you can just relax & enjoy the views. We will definitely go back & I would recommend this property to friends. Bill

This was by far the best vacation I have ever taken!! The condo was immaculate, very spacious and the view over the ocean was breathtaking!! We went to Key West for a day but I think we had a better time at and around the condo! We did some tourist sight-seeing, shopping and eating at the wonderful local restaurants (the Islamorada Fish Co. was terrific) but we mostly took advantage of all the amenities the condo had to offer! We utilized the newly updated kitchen for almost all of our meals and the master suite was incredible!! The deck off the master suite was great for drinking coffee in the morning as the sun came out and was just as perfect in the afternoon for laying out on the deck chairs. The pool was very quiet and clean and all of the neighbors were very nice. They would bring us fresh fish nearly everyday(they obviously were better fishermen then us). We already have plans to rent the same condo next year if it is available...it was that GREAT!!

The Condo is wonderful, big and clean. The view is incredible. The location perfect, in the middle of everything. We will never stay anywhere else in the Keys if this is availible. Thanks alot Jesper

We were here in April,2009 and there was eight of us and we had plenty of room. The weather was great and the other poeple at the condos were great. We went Tarpan fishing at Seven mile brige and had the best time, caught Tarpan and Sharks.The pictures of the Condo do not do it justice, it is just a beautiful place. Would like to go again next spring.

It was a perfect vacation. We took three of our grandchildren and went scuba diving. The lodging was perfect. the master bedroom being up stairs and the balcony was wonderful because the kids could sleep late. The kitchen had all the needed cooking supplies. We always bring our own food and cook. everything went well. The refg door has got to be closed all the way as the directions said. We are both boat captains and Dive instructors and we rented the owners boat which made it more perfect. The swimming pool was clean and very refreshing after a day of diving. Every thing was clean and in very good shape. We watched these condos being built and they were in a perfect place for someone who loves the keys. I would love to buy into this condo if the owners would let us.Seth the manager was very helpful. We will be Back!!!!!!

What an AMAZING vacation we had while staying in "The Keys". We stayed in this condo over spring break 2009. The pictures on the web page do not do it justice. The condo is tastfully decorated, the appliances are newer, the condo is well kept and clean. The best part of the condo are the views facing the ocean. The pool area is well kept and quiet and the marina area is an added bonus. Overall, we loved the location, price, and cleanliness of the condo.

All of the tenants in all of the buildings were thoughtful, kind and remained connected to ask us to share St Patrick's Day cornbeef and cabbage. We did not want to leave. Seth the inkeeper is one of the most kindess souls I have met here on earth
