This has been the best vacation ever! We thought it was great last year but with the beautiful weather we had it was excellent. The Overlook is great, located where you can relax but close to Key West so that you can do all the tourist things if you want to. The key deer are beautiful, Sebastien, the fish was great! We went on an ecotour with Big Pine Kayak Adventures, highly recommend that! We had friends and family come down and they all loved it also. We'll be back next year! Beautiful and serene, you can experience the Keys from the Overlook and dont forget to see the sunsets on the roof. Thanks Again!

Bill Keoghs Kayak nature tour was great, highly recommended, plus it is right around the corner at the No Name Bridge. I bicycled over 150 miles from 7 mile bridge to the Southern most point. We spent out second day in downtown Key West. Pirate Soul was great, stopped to eat at Mangrove Mama's for dinner and sat right next to Big Paul Teuttle from American Chopper and got a picture with him. Thanks for the great time!

We had a great time snorkeling, fishing, lobstering, exploring and just hanging out. It's a terrific, natural place far from any crowds. Thanks Sebastien for the tour and lobster training.

This vacation was one that we wil not soon forget. Seeing the Key Deer in the morning and evening was great. Old Town in Key West with all the shops and vendors was memorable. The two most memorable things we all did was snorkel off of Looe Key. That excursion will remain with us for a lifetime and the second most memorable thing was the outside shower! We hope to come back and visit in the near future as your location provides some of the most quiet nights that we've had in a long, long time.

Thanks so much Sebastien & Trish for a taste of island paradise. We especially enjoyed the boat rides, snorkeling and sunsets. Loved being surrounded by deer, iguanas and herons & having all the comforts of home in your home.

We had an excellent stay here at the Overlook and have fallen in love with the beautiful keys. Your lovely home was perfect and just out of the way enough from the hustle and bustle. The deer and iguana, and other wildlife were a hit with everyone. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This is a trip we will not forget!

Wow! Awesome! Fantastic! Wonderful! Spectacular! Thanks for sharing your Florida vacation home with our family. Everyone has a great time-from the fishing, to the snorkeling, to the sightseeing to the shopping. Seeing the key deer and the angel fish reef where we snorkeled was incredible-it would be hard to believe if you did'nt see it yourself. We would love to come back & stay longer.
