Fun family getaway

We chose this location for our summer getaway & it was great! Was plenty of room for 4 adults, 4 kids & a Golden Retriever. The kids loved fishing off of the dock, swimming, kayaking & paddle boarding right from the house.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our week at the rental. The house was spotless with comfy furnishings. The pool is larger than many rental house pools in the Keys. Our boat was easy to dock, too. The communication with CoCo Plum Vacation Rentals is almost instantaneous!

Overall very nice.

Overall it was a very nice property. Very well maintained. Great location. Everything you could need supplied. I like that there was a separate room on the second floor, was perfect for our non family guest to stay. Only complaint is that the master bedroom bed is very uncomfortable and the couch is even worse. If those two things are upgraded then the place would be perfect.

Great house / great location

We stayed here over Christmas break with another family (5 children under 10 / 9 total people). The house was excellent and clean when we arrived. We reached out to the management company several times and they were very responsive over text. Great central location in the keys with plenty to do for the kids (when we could get them out of the pool). Highly recommend the property. The only thing that could make the experience better would be to stock the kitchen (another set of silverware, baking sheets and some more pans). Thanks for a great time!

Sweet spot

Lovely property, very clean, very nice swimming pool. We really enjoyed this duplex with a private pool and canal side yard. It was nicely landscaped and pool was a great temperature. We did pay for pool heat. Loved the easy access to Sombrero beach and many nice restaurants. We spent a lot of time in the pool and on the patio. The property worked well for our dogs. We stayed exclusively on the first level which is second floor from the ground per local construction standards. However stairs are hard for me and the VRBO ad said bedroom on first floor and no pic of the house was found by us on VRBO. Perfect retreat if stairs are easy for you even better. So we were expecting a first floor to be a ground floor. The third floor had lovely bedrooms and would accommodate a full family. Lovely property and great stay. Thank you so much.

We rented both sides of the house. The host was very responsive to all of our concerns. It was very clean and matched the description. We were very disappointed in the beach situation in the Keys. (Way too much seaweed- I was expecting clear water.) Of course, this is not a reflection on the host or property.

Family vacation for 9 adults

Upon entry the house smelled like stale smoke . The property was not as large as the pictures lead you to believe especially the pool. The kitchen was not well equipped . That being said the access to kayaks and bikes were a great amenity. Good location to beach and shopping . Overall house was clean and accommodated 9 adults comfortably. Would consider renting again . Renting agency was very quick to respond to minor issues as necessary.

Great place and location

We are very pleased with our stay minus a few details. The house was not very clean. Our feet were black a few minutes after being in the house. The rental company attempted to resolve by sending housekeeping but it was the same after they returned to clean ( we were not present and I assumed they never came until the rental company told me otherwise). The other issue was the bed was broken. The large/heavy footboard was detached and leaned against the wall. My toddler pulled it over— if my husband’s suitcase wouldn’t have been in front of it, it would’ve smashed the little guy. After communicating this problem, they sent someone to install a new bed but unfortunately, they left the old bed including the frame and footboard leaned against the wall, which was more dangerous than before. No one was ever sent to pick up the old bed and it remained there for the rest of our trip. Everything else was otherwise great! The house was just right to house all 9 of us comfortably. The outdoor area was amazing and very well taken care of. Kayaks and paddle boards were awesome! The dock was perfect for our needs and access to the boat was easy!
