Love the property. Great amenities, pool, paddle boards and kayaks and use of the golf cart were all enjoyable. Easy check in. Loved the security of the property. My only recommendation would be to get new mattresses for the beds. Everyone likes to sleep well on vacation. Otherwise a great place to stay. Has something for everyone and every age.

We had a wonderful stay and truly enjoyed both the location and all of the amenities the home had to offer. The golf cart was a great added bonus and made getting around even more convenient. Our kids especially loved having pickleball and basketball right by the house, it kept them entertained the entire time!The pool area was fantastic, and we really appreciated the friendly, welcoming atmosphere from both guests and the community. It made the experience even more enjoyable.Another highlight was how easy it was to access the other Keys, which added to the overall convenience and adventure of the trip.Overall, it was a great stay, and we would definitely come back!

Our anniversary getaway.

The property was great. Everything was as advertised. The property is close to restaurants and local hang outs. The Square Grouper and the Morning Joint are a must. Our kayak ride was amazing , as well as the fishing. We would definitely stay again. Thank you for a wonderful visit.

A little piece of paradise.

Sitting right on a very wide canal looking out into the ocean with beatiful breezes. The house made it feel like paradise for us. It was very clean, offered every thing needed, also with paddle boards, bikes and a golf cart! Our stay was way too shortshort though.

January getaway

Loved our stay! Pickle/tennis ball courts right next door, my husband could play and I could watch from the balcony. Home was clean and included little extras, spices, coffee filters, laundry soap. Loved the use of the golf cart! The weather wasn’t great so we didn’t use the kayaks. The community was great with activities. Loved the pancake breakfast!

Amazing time!

This home truly has it all. It’s been fully renovated and stocked. The golfcart was so easy to use and helpful for getting around the park. The canal frontage was amazing! We saw lobster, stone crab and blue crab in it every night. Even though the tennis and pickleball courts are right next to it you can’t hear them and the games don’t start until 8:30am. We will for sure be coming back every year!

First time in the Keys

Very nice community of seasonal residents. Trying to communicate with the agent after hours was less than desirable. The “24 hour agent” was a loop of computer responses. The loop response should have indicated that someone at the entrance security gate would be available to answer any questions 24/7. Which they were very nice and friendly. All in all, enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

Nice House - great amenities!

The house is very clean and has the kid’s park right next door. The gulf cart, kayaks, and paddle boards are the cherry on top for the property compared to the other properties we’ve stayed at VO. The only minus is that the property is located at the end of the canal, so you get the accumulation of sargassum (floating sea weed) and that makes for a bad smell as well as its not best thing for the boat. Oh, forgot to mention, the checkout list - “clean the dishes and store them” is a bit over the top. Usually you can leave the dishwasher machine running and that enough. The property manager is non-existent.

Maso, We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately the wind did blow out of the east for your entire stay. Air curtains help but weather is the boss. We ask you leave the unit in the same condition when you arrived. All the property management members live in the park so we can better assist our guests. Hope to see you again soon. WFR

Incomplete listing and terrible management company

Our family had never been to Venture Out before, so I really did not know what to expect. This neighborhood is a mixture of mobile homes, small homes, and empty RV lots. Most of the people here are full timers, or people who rent and stay many months at a time. It’s not really conducive to people only coming for a few days or a week. There are also several important points missing from this listing (see Cons below). Here are my pros and cons of the home and the neighborhood. Pros: lot is right on the water (canal), community pool and hot tub, Pickleball and tennis, kitchen had everything needed to cook meals, owner allowed use of paddle boards, bikes and other sports equipment, generally friendly people Cons: HVAC did not work the whole time we were there and it got up to 81 degrees in the house, management had no interest in helping fix it, management company is awful, the house is right next to (a few feet away) the Pickleball courts and they start playing loudly at 7am, the house is at the end of the canal where all of the grass/debris builds up and you can’t really jump in to swim right there, no beach at the resort

Amanda, Thank you for the review. The quiet hours in the park are 11a to 7a and there were other units in the same price range that were not next to the pickleball courts. The AC required a service call as the unit was set into the 60deg range and it froze the unit up even with a note stating please not to turn down that far. The owners had just left 2 days prior to arrival and had no issues for the whole 2 months with the ac. Also we do apologize but we can not control which way the wind blows the seagrass in from the ocean. Unfortunately the keys are a bunch of rocks in the middle of the ocean and there are only 3 beaches in the entire 125 miles that makes up the keys. We look forward to seeing you again in the future at Venture Out a condo association. Waterfront Keys Realty
