Beautiful Home

Sailfish Villa checked all the boxes for our two families with young children. We loved being able to walk to the aquarium and nearby farmers markets and events. The home felt spacious and comfortable even with eight of us, and the layout was perfect for shared dinners and game nights. Ringing in the New Year in Vaca Cut was absolutely magical.

Great Vacation, Great Company to Book With!

100% Recommend booking this property with this company. Meredith could not have done a better job helping us find a rental property, and also she was glad to help with anything during our stay. The property itself was perfect. We had a full house and still felt like there was plenty of space. Lots of good food and boat rentals nearby! Thanks!

The property was very clean and the location was beautiful. There was a pool there that we paid extra to heat - well worth having it heated. The property manager was easy to work with.

Clean and well-equipped

We had a wonderful stay. Our children loved the games, ping-pong table, hammock and pool. We saw a manatee and several small sharks from the pier. It was a perfect rental to come back to after a long day of exploring and adventuring around the keys.

Great vacation rental and location

We had a great stay at sailfish villa! We would highly recommend it.Absolutely beautiful home, very clean and everything we needed. Fishing off of the dock was fun and even caught some fish.Bikes were available and came in handy. We had a family of 10, which the house accommodated perfectly with plenty of room. Meredith was available for any questions we may have had. We would highly recommend this property!

Gem in the middle keys

Great location, fantastic layout for a large group or families. Manager is super easy to work with and the property was spotless. Very relaxing to just chill and watch boats in the cut and convenient to all the keys have to offer. Will definitely return !

Family Vacation

We stayed as a family (11 people total). The home had plenty of space for all of us to not feel overcrowded. Plenty of pool/beach chairs/floats/toys/coolers provided which was a huge help with small kids! Meredith was very attentive and wonderful to work with during our stay. We're looking forward to staying with Pineapple Properties again!

Family Vacay

We stayed as a group of 12. Six kids, six adults. It was wonderful to have our own pool and the fishing off the dock was awesome. I have never walked into such a clean house/hotel/condo. We loved everything about this property and our stay.

Beautiful and well-appointed with a wonderful water view.

The home was pretty and very clean. Mattresses were in good condition, and the linens were all high quality. The bedrooms are roomy and have good natural light. The home is well-equipped with most everything one would need. We took paper towels and toilet paper but never had to open the packages. The water views are great and fun to watch the birds and boats.

Perfect Week

We had a fabulous week in the Sailfish Villa. One of the cleanest rentals we have ever rented! Meredith was absolutely perfect to work with and very quick to respond. The property is gorgeous, spacious and the perfect home base while in the keys. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and watching all the wildlife. We will definitely rent the sailfish villa again!

Florida Keys Family Vacation

We loved our time with our children and grandchildren at this property. The home and pool area were every bit as nice as described. Everything was very clean. Property management responsive to the couple of questions and needs we had. This property was perfect for our family of 10. Enjoyed the gorgeous sunsets! Nice central location on the Florida Keys.

Great House!

We had a great time at the Sailfish Villa with ten in our group (four adults and six kids). The property was just as described and provided plenty of amenities. We had a great time swimming in the pool, fishing off the dock, and looking at the plethora of marine life in Vaca Cut. The location is fantastic, as you're easily able to access both the upper and lower keys. Meredith was also very responsive and helpful during out stay. We'd definitely stay again!
