  My husband & I were awed by your gorgeous home on beautiful Duck Key. I honestly don't know how it could have been any nicer! If we are ever lucky enough to have a home in Florida, I would decorate it just like yours. There was one little problem, though....the WEATHER!! We picked the week with colder temperatures. Although, being from Kansas City, where we had just experienced 25" of snow and freezing temps, the Florida weather still seemed wonderful. Just not warm enough for any water activities. We visited several restaurants and bars while there..many were ones you recommended. It was a great trip and we hope to be able to visit again. Thank you.

  Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

  Owner response: We thought of you often the time that you were down. We really want everything to be perfect for anyone that stays at our home, including the weather. We enjoy this weather year round, so when it is cold or rainy it almost forces us to stop and relax. We know that is not true for visitors. Hopefully, you will come again and the weather will be perfect!It has been a cooler winter here in Florida like much of the country. Whatever happened to "global warming" Ha Ha.

  There were no disappointments whatsoever in our experience. It was our greatest Key vacation ever, we have loved the Keys for 30 years as a very special place, the owners, the property and location are as good as it gets. The house is very homey and welcoming, impeccably neat and clean and the furnishings more than complete. The only thing negative is that we had to leave.

  Owner response: Dave, We are so pleased that your vacation was everything you hoped it would be. I know that feeling about leaving. Since I was a little girl, I would cry as the car would pull off the island. Now my kids look at me and ask, "mom, are you crying?" Usually, I am. We hope return and thanks again for the kind words.

  Over the years, we had travelled to the Key West for vacation. This time, we decided to check out Duck Key. We absolutely loved the quietness of the island. The house and furnishing were wonderful. We loved the outdoor area and being surrounded by the water. Our days were spent fishing off the dock, kayaking and just relaxing by the water in the hammocks. The owner was very helpful. This is a place our family intends to return to again and again :)

  Our family of 7 just returned from a week long stay at this beautiful home. We couldn't have been more pleased with everything! Such a wonderful spot for a family to hang out together and enjoy the Keys. Our favorite part of the vacation was playing cards on the balcony, relaxing in the hammocks, and hanging out under the chickee hut. Kayaking, leaping off the dock and fishing were favorites as well! The house was beautiful, clean, comfortable, with great new appliances, showers, and a great family sized couch. Relaxed comfortable feel. The neighborhood was very nice and great for evening walks. Lots of smiles and waves from neighbors. Stunning views, and beautiful sunrises over the water. The owners were quite helpful in planning our vacation and checking to see if we had any questions during our stay. We would recommend this property to others without hesitation.

  Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

  Owner response: We are thrilled that your vacation was everything you hoped it would be. So glad you chose to spend such precious time with your family at our home. We hope you'll come again.

  Our family has been coming to Duck Key for nearly 40 years and, without a doubt, no other property even comes close to the amenities and feeling of being at home like this one. Every other place we have vacationed on Duck Key before this property had the feel of a "rental" with aged decor, minimal appointments, and the borrowed feel of a hotel room. From the moment you step inside this property, the pride of ownership is evident in every detail. The owners must have been inspired by a Caribbean resort before updating this home in every way. The brand new kitchen is appointed with high end stainless appliances, granite counters, and a beautiful barstool area to look out over the bay, when not enjoying the beautiful farm table in the dining room. Each bedroom has designer colors, ample room, multiple sleeping options, plantation shutters, and top quality linens - the kind you would have in your personal home. The recently-renovated, spa-like bathrooms have huge duel head showers, (the upstairs hall shower having one on either end of the shower), frameless glass doors, amazing stonework, and wainscoting to soothe away the sore muscles from a full day in paradise. The downstairs retreat is perfect for a little alone time with it's own family room, bathroom, and bedroom. Nightly family board games on the expansive, upper patio overlooking the bay create enduring memories for years to come. This property is situated on a very exclusive, quiet street with a vacant lot on one side and is perfect for enjoying the peace of the islands. We enjoy the huge cabana with multiple hammocks, outdoor hot water shower, and a new dock which can handle a pretty sizable vessel or possibly 2 - 3 smaller boats. With the dock lights attracting fish each night, we catch everything from tarpon, snapper, and sharks right from the dock. Imagine a "home away from home" retreat with all the amenities of home, tons of space for an extended family get together, and nooks for that much needed solitary downtime you seek during a family vacation. That's what this property offers. Now, add amazing owners that are so kind and easy to work with. Each summer, we look forward to reuniting with our extended family in this amazing home and can't imagine spending this precious time anywhere else. I welcome calls about this property, the wonderful experiences we have had here, and recommend this vacation home without hesitation to anyone looking to create amazing memories on Duck Key.

  Recommended for: Adventure seekers, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

  Owner response: Nothing warms our hearts more than to know that those who have stayed in our little piece of paradise enjoy it as much as we do. Thank you for our kind words. It makes all the work worth it. It's nice to know that our home is part of your family tradition. How special!
