This is a great property with lots of amenities and things to do in the area. We were still discovering new adventures the day we left! The owner is extremely easy to work with and willing to answer any and all questions. My family particularly enjoyed kayaking around the sound, viewing the wildlife, and snorkelling with a great company, Quiessence. We all tried paddle boarding for the first time and my Dad spent many an hour fishing off the dock. We fed many fish to the pelicans and Freddie the Egret! All of my grown kids had to take a nap on the upper deck where the most comfortable chaise lounges in existance live. The house was extremely comfortable for six. Do be cautious if you rent a boat- the sound is surprisingly shallow! John Pennecamp, a great state park, is only two miles away, jet ski rentals are across the highway, and a huge community pool is about five miles away. There are restaurants galore, which we made delightful use of in our search for the best Key Lime pie in Key Largo. The winners were a three-way tie between the Fish House, The Big Chill and The Bayside Grille. And yes, they even sell whole pies to take out! Was a wonderful winter break, and would highly recommend it to chase away those winter blahs!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, pet owners, sightseeing.

This is a fantastic property that caters to multiple interests of various age groups. The House is set up perfect for families that want enough room to all eat together ,either inside or outside, and has plenty of private areas to be separate from kids. We were so comfortable at this house we did not feel the need to leave as it had everything we wanted. Many things to see and do in Key Largo. Fishing off the dock was a big hit with the kids then feeding "Freddie" the local egret some of the fish that were caught. The kids also swam with the manatees right off the dock! Great ice cream treats were found at Mr. C's between MM 98 and 99. The owners were great at answering our questions and even gave us the name of a fishing guide that picked us up at our dock! We thought the kids might have preferred Disneyword over this vaction, however on the just the second day they ALL said," Dad this is way better than Disneyworld!" That is why this was the BEST FAMILY VACATION EVER!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

A fellow vactioner told us about this property and thank god they did! This is luxury at it's finest... Lazy days on the veranda sipping a cold Appleton's rum. Warm suntanning on the spacious dock while watching the manatees. Excellent fishing at Trout Creek. Watching the dolphins play in the Sound. Paddling through the mangroves. I can not remember a more enjoyable or romantic vacation then staying at this rental. Will we go back again? YES AS SOON AS WE CAN. Stay there, you will be glad you did, and you WILL recommend it to someone else!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

I stayed with my wife, mother-in-law and three kids, and this property had something for everyone. The kids loved the kayaking, fishing, the snorkelling off the quay and the easy access to the beach at the state park. The adults loved sitting out on the verandah in the evening rushing down to the water's edge each time we heard the dolphins come to play. The accomodation was very clean and spacious, the kitchen just what was needed, and the open plan living areas made the property flow wonderfully. The owners were very helpful, location in a quiet hide-away with easy access to the highway and Miami airport, and everything in the description lived up to its billing. We would recommend local mexican and fish restaurants, the nearest Kmart was minutes away making stocking up straightforward, and entertainment and activities were never far away. We would recommend this property without hesitation and will go again if we get the opportunity!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

Our family has been vacationing in the keys for over 15 years and we have finally found a home we want to come back to every summer. We stayed in this spacious oceanfront home for the entire month of July and couldn't have been more happy. The property is well maintained and very clean. The home had everything we needed for our month-long stay, the beds were very comfortable, and the location was perfect! Equally important was the owner's availablity for questions or concerns. He truly wants his visitors to feel at home. This home will not disappoint! We can't wait to return next July!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

I can't begin to tell you how wonderful this home in Key Largo is. It is so comfortable with a layout & location that could not have been better for us. We had a gentle breeze blowing almost constantly, the "resident" egret & iguanas were seen daily and the fresh mangoes were heavenly. Sunday morning we even had a pod of manatees visit. How could anyone ask for more? We initially planned our trip to the Keys to spend most days diving, but there are so many things to do we ended up diving only one day! Of course we did make it out to the Grecian Rocks on two days for snorkeling. That is one of the most beautiful coral sites I have ever seen. Also, the food was fantastic every where we went. We are hoping to return to Key Largo with both of our sons' families next year and would be very interested in renting this house again.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We have enjoyed your house here so much - the gorgeous weather and beautiful setting made us wake up each day and say, "just another day in paradise!" We have taken many long walks, enjoyed lazy afternoons reading, and spent many evenings cooking and eating candlelit meals on your downstairs porch - one of the most pleasant and most beautiful places anywhere. We were thrilled to arrive here after a two-day drive to find the house was all we had hoped for, and so much more.! The second floor master suite was amazing, and the situation of the house on gave us a feeling of being on a much larger body of open water. Wonderful evenings on the upstairs porch gave us breathtaking views of the moon dancing on the water, and our afternoon cruises around the bay made us realize once again just how much we enjoy being in the Keys. On our first visit here, it has been a real treat to get to know Key Largo better, and with each new restaurant or Tiki bar we have discovered, we find we are looking forward to returning someday to revisit our favorite spots. For us it has really become our island paradise, and as we leave this beautiful place, we are convinced that we love Key Largo, too.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway.

What an unbelievable place!! I stayed here with my year old twin boys and enjoyed every minute of it. It is a very child friendly home and had all we needed for the boys including safety gates, toys, highchairs and cots. The owner even had a babysitter we could contact so we could go out and enjoy the beautiful surrounding areas. I have been fortunate enough to travel all over the world and feel this vacation spot and home have been one of my favourite destinations!! I would recommend this beautiful home to everyone and will be back again soon!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

This house is amazing! From watching porpoises off the dock, the amazing sunsets and spacious house, this place has everything. This house was perfect for a family gathering. We were all able to sit together for meals at the large table in the kitchen or at the table outside on the huge porch. There was plenty of room in the living room areas for all of us to sit comfortably. This home had kayaks, bicycles, helmets and fishing gear for use while we stayed in the home. My 7 year old son and I went for several leisurely bike rides around the quiet neighborhood. We spent hours fishing off the dock and caught fish after fish. The abundance of fish we saw swimming by and around the dock was astonishing. The owner even arranged for a rental boat delivered right to the dock! This home was welcoming from the moment I stepped in the door. Wonderful restaurants and shops are nearby. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a great place to stay while in Key Largo!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

I have rented numerous homes throughout the Florida Keys for years and this one has stopped my search. It is perfect! The house is big yet comfortable. It has everything that I need and want in a vacation rental. It was easy to find, easy to use, easy to contact the owners, and easy to pay with my credit card. It is clearly owned by people who know the service industry. The free use of the kayaks goes above and beyond. The kitchen allowed us to make gourmet meals and the beds are very comfortable. Just when you think that relaxing and enjoying the view is the best part, the manatees (including babies) swim by the dock. It just kept getting better and better! Beyond the house, the Key Largo area has so much to offer. I had a great time kayaking, fishing, shopping, and relaxing. My biggest complaint about my trip is that I ran out of time - I did not get to the many dolphin attractions, the glass bottom casino, or go snorkeling in Pennekamp State Park. Next time I will stay at "We Love Key Largo" for longer.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
