Central Location

Convenient location to both Biscayne and Everglades National Parks. Clean with ample space for our family with three teens as long as someone doesn’t mind sleeping in the living room. Back patio provided a nice escape despite being in a relatively crowded neighborhood.

This was a nice little house in Homestead, and close to both Everglades and Biscayne National Parks. We were easily able to drive to both parks, with each being about 15 minutes away. The place was clean and a good space for my family to stay at. It’s a great option if you are visiting the parks.

great trip to Everglades

Outside was a little disconcerting, but inside was very clean and efficient. Everything worked great. We had a wonderful time spending several days in the Glades using this location as our base.

Clean, comfortable and close to National Parks!

We were in Homestead to visit Everglades and Biscayne National Parks and this was a perfect place for our family of four to stay comfortably. The kitchen is well-stocked so we could prepare meals at home, everything was clean and very comfortable for all. We would stay here again if we come back to the area.

Dont judge a book by the cover the neighborhood looks a little rough and worn down and could sketch out some people but inside is clean and organized and it has a nice patio...the days we were there it was very quiet no traffic no noise very peaceful and it surprised us all because its a neighborhood where the houses are right next to each other but its so quiet and still there you do feel uncrowded .

Family Visit

stayed here for a short family visit. Property is clean, in good condition and as advertised. Kitchen was well-stocked with all the necessities including coffee, spices, condiments, utensils, etc. Javier was responsive and easy to communicate with and was very helpful returning our iPad that we mistakenly left behind.

Great for Cruise

The place was excellent. Great space definitely accommodate six family members. It was extremely clean. He gave excellent. Excellent instructions on how to handle it. After our departure entry time and availability. He was 100% available. I will definitely enjoy going back to Florida and having Javier as my host. It was a little far, but definitely worth it.

Mother/ daughter Everglades Escape!

This home had everything we needed to launch us into the Everglades and the Keys for a 3 night vacation. The kitchen was well stocked so we could eat in after shopping at the conveniently located Publix grocery store. The neighborhood is a little older, but very quiet and friendly. The house was clean and comfortable. We purchased extra TP, to hold us over.We'd stay here again!The host was very responsive when I messaged him.

Older unit in a suburban neighborhood, but good location to National Parks

This unit was perfect as a home base between national parks. It is clean inside and was stocked with all the basics. Not fancy, but fit our needs.

Perfect for visiting the National Parks

The location was perfect for visiting Everglades and Biscayne. It was also perfectly located for travel to Key West. The property was impeccably clean and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed. Most of all, it was like coming home after a long day of adventure. Loved the courtyard for drying our gear and it wss monitored by a miniature panther (house cat).

Great location for National Parks trip

We stayed in Homestead for a central location to visit all of the parks in South Florida. Javier's place is just as pictured, clean, great location and a quiet neighborhood. It was perfect for our family of five. We enjoyed mornings and dinner on the patio after days in the parks. We appreciated the new bed linens! I wouldn't hesitate to book with Javier.

Perfect for a visit to National parks

We used this home as a base for seeing Biscayne (20 minutes), Everglades (1-1.5 hrs), and Big Cypress (1.5 hrs). It was clean and just as pictured. It had everything we needed for a short visit. And close to multiple grocery and restaurant options. Definitely recommend.

Unsure after reading property details?

This home was exactly what was listed in property details. It served the purpose just for what we were looking for—eating breakfast, sleeping, and showering. We were constantly on the go during our stay. Always room for improvement, could use some cosmetic updates, but overall experience was good.

Hurricane evacuation

My wife and I from Tampa, and her daughter and boyfriend from Sarasota needed a place to stay, fast, that would also be pet friendly. We were all getting out of the way of Milton, and we found the place in Homestead that was perfect!

Practical and pleasant

For our purposes, the location was ideally situated between Miami and the Keys. Javier was very flexible and had no issue with us arriving a little early. The apartment is well equipped with new furnishings and comfortable for two couples. It was great to have the patio out back.
