Wonderful Senior Spring Break

House was perfect for families of 6 high school seniors for spring break trip. We had 22 people, and the house accommodated us very well. The kids loved their separate spaces, and having the beach and Village area so close by. The bikes and beach chairs were wonderful to have.

60th Birthday Family Celebration

Perfectly located for enjoyment of the beach, live music, and fantastic food and drinks. We could walk to everything. Great space for young and old. Really appreciated the heated pool!! Accommodations are situated on separate floors and not side by side. Felt a little rushed on the departure.

Big Kahuna

This place was perfect for our big family that also needed some space , we rented both units. Management was very responsive and it was clean. We received a personalized sweet treat, which was very nice. Loved having beach wagons and chairs. My only critique would be that the units need to be maintained and updated. There were lots of minor issues with running toilets, doors that didn’t shut, no working ice machines or water dispenser, broken garage door, broken bikes, broken blinds, etc. nothing that ruined our fun, but for the money we paid to stay here all these things shouldn’t of been an issue. The communication was very easy.

Hi Amy, Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review. We’re glad to hear that you found the home itself amazing and that your family had a fantastic time overall—especially during your daughter’s graduation and your 25th anniversary. We're honored you chose our home for your special occasion. That said, we want to sincerely apologize for the concerns you experienced during your stay. Your comfort and safety are incredibly important to us. We are sorry to hear about the chair and the high bed causing issues. We offered to resolve the issue immediately during your stay and you respectfully declined during the vacation. We are replacing all chairs with high quality seating and have added stools to all beds. We also understand there was some frustration with the “All-In-One” washer/dryer unit. These are designed to be efficient for our guests, and we will monitor and replace it if this becomes a recurring issue for guests. Your feedback allows us to enhance the guest experience, and we hope to welcome you back for a stay that’s truly exceptional from start to finish. Warm regards, The Cottages on the Key

Great house & location

Love the location and modern house will all its amenities!It was super clean, beautiful and really everything was thought of - the cup cakes in the fridge were great bonus after a long day of traveling. The walls were very sound isolated and we never heard our neighbors. Also great service as we called and made a few checkin changes at the end, would recommend this great house to anyone!
