Peace and Quiet Remodeled Resort Home 20 miles from Key West!

Nice place. Quiet neighborhood. Close enough to key west to experience what you want to do there,

We spent two nights here. When we arrived we decided to rewash the bedding as it smelled musty. Luckily there are a modern washing machine and tumble dryer in the property. Then we discovered the other issues.

The air conditioning was already operating before we arrived which was a nice touch, but unfortunately one of the three units was contaminated with black mold inside so we had to turn it off. Another one, in the main bedroom, was connected to a wall socket with exposed wiring (as the wall cover was detached).

The only means of blocking out light in this room is a net curtain, which doesn't block very much at all; a problem if you wake when it gets light. The living room blinds were of a type with gaps, that meant in the evening if you had the lights on you could be easily seen from outside. We liked the stained glass effect on the second bedroom windows, but something had caused this film to substantially peel off.

It was handy to have a kitchen although the fridge wasn't clean inside. It is possible for bugs to find their way into this home. We saw two cockroaches, one crawling across the floor and the other in the sheets of the lower mattress in the second bedroom (this one was dead).

It was nice to have bikes provided (we've not had that anywhere else) but one of the bikes had a seat that was falling to pieces (just exposed foam).

To add some balance, good points were the internet connection, and of course Cudjoe Key is in the lower keys which is surrounded by beautiful warm clear water. In most places the vegetation has recovered after Irma, so it really feels like a vacation (not a disaster zone). You can also get really good cuban sandwiches. The shower was newer, and effective despite the low water pressure.

As it was a short visit we didn't try out any of the resort-provided facilities so can't comment on them. The keys are great, and could do with support after the hurricane, but it's a shame to have these issues with the accommodation. Correcting them will take time, but this place has the potential to be better than it was when we stayed.

We loved our place. It was perfect for our family.

Home was great, remodeled looked good. Amenities at resort were great, close to Key West if that is your thing, close to grocery store and plenty of restaurants. We are a family of 5 with a family dog and house easily accommodated us. Danielle is great and responds promptly. Next time in will rent again.

WE enjoyed the community atmosphere along with easy access to local offerings / experiences. A little upset with the amount of red and black ants in the home. would do it again. : )
