Property was in great condition and the listing is very accurate. Very convenient location if you want to go into Key West while also being a pretty quiet area. Highly recommend.
Our entire family and friends enjoyed our stay at the Fandango . The place itself was awesome. The area is beautiful. I was born and raised in Key West and this is my first time staying on Cudjoe Key. The whole vacation was absolutely fabulous.
We had a group of 12 family members ages 8-55. Everyone liked the location, view, private beach, kayaks, and also snorkeling and fishing from the private dock.
My family and I had a great time staying at Fandago. It was located close enough to Key West to visit, yet far enough away to enjoy some privacy and peace and quiet. We were there for my daughter's wedding and everything was absolutely perfect! Would definitely stay again!
The house was a great size and the dock was easy to access. The only things to note would be that the house shares a fence with a junkyard so it’s not a pretty drive up to the house & the pictures don’t reflect this so just be aware. Otherwise this was a standard property with all the amenities you would need for a long week.
Our group of 5 couples really enjoyed this property. It was only a half hour drive to Key West, but we spent several days just enjoying the private pool, hot tub, and beach access with kayaks.
This was a great property. There were ages ranging from 9 years to 90 Years.The location was great and easy access to site seeing locations.Would highly recommend the property. There was a glitch with the cable TV but the property managers handled the appointments, so it didn't interfere with our adventures.
Great property to enjoy time with entire family. We had 12 people and this place checked all boxes enough space for everyone to enjoy. The view is amazing many amenities available kayaking pool and spa, fishing and room for a boat. Definitely recommended also very short ride to key west a plus! Thanks again

Overall we enjoyed the House. Plenty of space and the outdoor area was relaxing.
We were disappointed that there were no fruit trees as mentioned in the description of the place.

Hi Shelly,
I am sorry you were disappointed about the fruit trees. Unfortunately we lost all the fruit trees in Hurricane Irma. We have replanted quite a few, however they have not matured to bear fruit yet. I have removed the fruit trees from the house description.
We are glad you had a great vacation and hope you will visit us again.
Thanks,
Amy
My family stayed for a week and it was lovely. My husband and son loved the ability to fish off the little dock and the entire family took advantage of the kayaks. We spent every evening on the deck watching the stars. The little Cuban restaurant up the street was a huge hit!
Very clean and comfortable. Fandango was all it promised to be. The hot tub and pool, the sunrise views from the deck and the convenience of the dock were all we could have hoped for and more. Property management checked in on us and we’re very friendly and attentive. We will be repeat clients.
Fandango was perfect for our family vacation. The pool was nice for our 12 year old and the grandparents. The dock was great for our boat and to sit and enjoy the water. The kitchen has just the right amount of tools, the beds are comfortable, and there are enough seats in any area for everyone to enjoy each other's company.
Close by we visited and enjoyed Morita's Cuban, the jumping bridge, and Murray's Market has all kinds of great things to grab to whip up a dinner at the house.
From the view, to the spacious, beautiful home, everything was top notch. The house was super clean and everything was in great condition. Having a private pool was wonderful and we were literally 50 steps- human, not stairs, from the water. It made a great home base for our daily excursions. Only slight issue was low water pressure, but that was far outweighed by everything else. Thanks for a great week. We highly recommend!

Looked great online!!! However, upon arrival the house was extremely dirty and very worn. Pool was dirty, hot tub was nasty, overall needed a deep clean and some freshening up. Would not recommend a stay at this house until some wholesale changes are made.

We are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the cleanliness of this home. Our homes are professionally cleaned and checked by our staff between each guests. This homeowner takes pride in keeping the home updated and maintained. We are always available to respond to any issues and would have been happy to correct any issues you may have found had you given us a call upon arrival
We absolutely loved our stay at this home... the property and home are wonderful.. our whole family enjoyed the pool, jacuzzi.. we docked our boats there as well and bought our paddle boards. The cove is a little tricky with the tides going up and down for the boats but we worked around that, it was amazing for paddle boarding and kayaking. this home rental by far was the best we ever stayed at. The little extras that they offered were a delight to see as most places do not offer beach towels, games, plenty of bathroom towels and other little things that just made the whole experience a delight to be there. we are already planning our trip for next year - we loved the home and the location.. just a hope skip and a jump to drive to key west and enjoy the day.
We were a group of 9 retirees/family--this was the perfect spot. Most drove from Ft Lauderdale/Punta Gorda Airports--some from Key West--very accessible to KW, Marathon--but the restaurants in Cudjoe were wonderful (esp Square Grouper!). The house was excellent--plenty of room. We had plenty of space--dining, lounging, playing games--very comfortable and pleasant. The pool, hammocks, and kayaks were well-used. There is lovely walking/biking trail right across the street we wish we'd known about sooner. Check-in/Check-out were super easy, never needed a thing from our host. A very quiet retreat (hope the neighbors said the same about us!) The only drawback was that we couldn't stay forever--but we'll be back!
Our vacation at Fandango was amazing. Easy to find, clean and well appointed. The house was perfect for the 12 of us (7 adults and 5 kids, ages 4-12). Plenty of room, 5 bedrooms, and having 3 bathrooms was a bonus. The location was ideal, we had a 22 foot pontoon boat that stayed docked at the dock and our private little beach was great for the little ones and a perfect place to enjoy the view! We took the kayaks out and the kids loved it! The pool is an added bonus, great for cooling off after a day on the boat. I highly recommend snorkeling at Looe Reef, spectacular! Fandango exceeded our expectations and our family had a vacation we won’t forget! Thanks for allowing us an opportunity to share your home ❤️
All 8 of us were completely satisfied - no complaints from anyone. We cannot stress enough how spotless this house was - inside and out. Kudos for a wonderful cleaning crew. The online description was accurate, loved the video showing the house and outside surroundings. The decor was lovely, no complaints on the beds. All outdoor furniture was clean and free from any breaks and rust. Hot tub and pool were in working condition and clean. All instructions for use were labeled and visible. The owner prepared a binder with maps, local restaurants and menus. If we get a chance to return to the Keys, I will definitely look into renting again! Thank you for making our vacation a great one.
On arrival entry into our home was very simple and easy. The home was above our expectations! Wonderfully spacious rooms for the whole family! Our group consisted of Parents/Grandparents (My husband and myself, our three children, our Son by marriage, and our precious Grandchildren ages 3, 7, and 10. We all loved the view, the beach, and the pool. My Daughter and Son (by marriage) chose the room upstairs to left then left. She said she watched the stars and actually saw a comet ☄️ until she fell asleep! We played games in the great room and had space for everyone to participate. I cooked for most our meals because we are retired and funds were limited but the kitchen was stocked with what I needed. We did by plastic cups for our small children. We saw iguanas, lizards, 🦌 deer, jelly fish, hermit crabs, and fish, and that excited everyone!!! I really hope we can do this again!!!! Thanks for sharing this wonderful home with my family - The Murphys

I designed this house and completed it in March 2010. It replaced a home that I lost in hurricane George in 1998. I love providing families with a great vacation experience and I have been doing that for 13 years at the Tropical Paradise which is located next door.
