We enjoyed our vacation last week in this very clean and comfortable property. We looked forward to waking up every morning, using the well stocked coffee bar, and then sitting on the patio along the water. Great location to so many restaurants and bars (highly recommend Irie Island Eats!) Property is walking distance to Sweet Savannah's for ice cream and treats and the boutique shops next door. We'll be back to stay in the future!

Great location for fishing!

The property is very close to open water .. if you bring a boat! Communication with Max and Ari was excellent and they were willing to assist with all our needs during our stay.

Winter Getaway

The property was amazing. We really enjoyed our stay. My only suggestion would be to put black out curtains in the bedroom as the neighbor's light would shine through the window.

The house is really cute and welcoming with lots of special touches. The coffee bar has a selection of syrups, the patio has a swing chair that I spent a lot of time in, and they have a hot tub that we enjoyed every evening. My husband used the fishing equipment and there are kayaks available. The location was in the middle of the keys, so it was easy to go to Key Largo or Key West. Ariadna was quick to respond to any questions that I had. We would definitely stay there again.

Perfect property for boaters.

This is the best rental property we have ever stayed at. Boat lift rated for 14K pounds held our 26’ with ease, dedicated bait freezer, and abundance of convenience items like fishing equipment, beach chairs, and beach towels. If you are bringing a boat the dredged area into the neighborhood channel can be as low as 1 foot at low tide. The channel itself is deeper, closer to 3.5 feet at low tide.

It was quite clean

Vey nice clean spot, doesn't specify that it is a shared duplex, and we prefer to rent a single home. Not my favorite place when it comes to keeping my boat.

Thanks for your review. Yes, we are a duplex but we don’t share any amenities. Backyard is fenced, private boat lift etc. We have a large parking space that I mention can easily accommodate two cars and a trailer for your boat. Your guests brought two boats and two cars and still were able to park in our driveway. We are 5 homes away from the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean with easy access to open ocean. However, I will make sure it’s clear to future guests that we are a duplex. Thanks again for the review.

We truly enjoyed all of the amenities and the location of this house. Great safe neighborhood and plenty of space. We had two day of high winds so the boat lift saved our boat from being pushed up against a dock. Only a 10-15 minute boat ride out to 7 mile bridge where we caught some great fish. We were able to bring them back to the house and use the fish cleaning station. One night a manatee came to visit! The hot tub was a blessing after a long day on the water. The house was furnished with things such as garbage bags toilet paper and dish washer detergent pods those are things not normally in a vacation rental. The little touches like that made this a place we will look at renting again.
The canal just steps from the back door!
Beautiful sunset on the water
