Great location for our visit. The condo is spacious, everyone was very comfortable. The pool is nice and the grounds of the property are well kept. Would come back here again.
Key Largo is a great location for snorkeling. The property was very clean and the manager was available for advice about the area. It’s very close to snorkeling locations. We would choose this place again.
Great location and very clean condo and facility. Used the pool several days and the grounds are very well maintained. I would highly recommend this property.
This location is in close proximity to absolutely everything!! To make things even better, the boat docks are a great place to spend your evening fishing or watching other people fish!! The resort is delightfully lit up in the evening time!! The pool is very relaxing and inviting. The host is very attentive with any needs wants and does his absolute best to accommodate. We will definitely be back!!
The place was amazing! Location was close to everything. Beautiful and well maintained property with access to many extra amenities for any group of travelers! I cannot speak highly enough about the host! He is local, available, informative and very accommodating with any request or inquiries. I truly feel like I’ve gained a friend and can’t wait to return to this place! KC you’re the goat
Great place for our family vacation - myself, wife and two college age daughters. Our first time in Key Largo was awesome. We enjoyed the pool area, pickelball court, beach area and view at sunset. Thanks Kent for being a great host.
Great property that is getting a better facelift. Enjoyed the activities and everything here. Great staff, clean, close to places to eat and activities. Highly recommend this unit.
We’ve stayed at Moon Bay fours or five times and it never disappoints. The location is wonderful and there’s never a lack of amenities at Moon Bay or a lack of things to do in the Keys. The sunsets are magnificent right from the dock at Moon Bay! People are super nice and the property manager was great. We’ve found a gem in Key Largo!
This was our second time at Kent’s unit. We love the location of Moon Bay, the clubhouse, the waterfront area, and the sunsets! The unit has everything we needed, and Kent was welcoming and super responsive. Great all-around!
Debi,
Very disappointed in the 3 star review after all of the timely communication and immediate attention provided to all of your questions and concerns. Pre-Stay questions answered within an hour, Early Check-in granted and service calls responded to within 2 hours during your stay. The 3 stars is solely because of no view from the unit.
We ask that you are more descriptive as 3 star review negatively impact our "Premier Partner" rating with VRBO.

We decided to stay in Key Largo because we wanted to see the Everglades. We were not disappointed! Our condo was clean & well equipped. We had a wonderful time while we were there.
The property was exactly as advertised. The place was very clean and the added extras (paddles, pickleball equipment, fishing poles, etc.) were a nice surprise. I would recommend this location to anyone needing a sunny vacation in a prime venue. Kent was a great Host and we used his recommendations for local restaurants and pubs.
Kent's condo at Moon Bay is comfortable clean and very well appointed. It was exactly what we thought we would get by looking at the pictures and reading the description. Kent was the most responsive host and very accommodating. We couldn't have had a nicer stay. Highly recommended.
We had a great week. The condo was updated and well appointed. Kent was very responsive. This is our 5th time to Moon Bay and we love it. We prefer condos to a resort or hotel and I liked that the items that were provided to get us started were together on the kitchen counter so we know what we had and what we didn’t. We will be back for sure!
This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this property. The location is great and the condo and complex are exactly what we wanted with a pool, tennis courts, ping pong, walking distance to restaurants and great sunsets! We will likely return for a 3rd time.

Very nice condo with friendly neighbors.
We stayed with our children. Our children loved fishing from the dock. The condo itself was nice. The only thing I didn't like was you couldn't see the water from the condo. Beds were comfortable. The condo has everything you could need. We plan on staying here again!

Moon Bay is a great community and I agree with you that the other owners/neighbors are very nice and welcoming of vacationing guest. It is a great location for children as it is fully fenced in with plenty of activities to enjoy. Our favorite activity is also fishing from the docks. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the accommodations and comfortable bedding. We look forward to having you as a returning guest. Kent

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come again. Encountered a few hiccups with the thermometer turning up to 85 degrees and not being able to adjust the auto set, but the owner quickly responded and was able to fix the issue before we returned back from our activities from the day.
Rating 4 out of 5 because there was a strange musty odor when you walked in and that lasted during the stay. Almost smelled of sewage so we had to go purchase some air fresheners to help with it.
Overall great experience and I would recommend to others.

Thank you for the feedback. It was unfortunate that the Programmable Thermostat for the A/C was incorrectly adjusted by a previous guest. This error in judgement caused the unit not to run the proper cooling schedule and the unit to be warm for your arrival. As you stated, we do pride ourselves on being super responsive to any concerns and were able to schedule our A/C technician to remedy the situation before you and your guest returned Saturday morning from your boat trip. A cover has been placed over the thermostat so the program can no longer be adjusted. Thanks again and we look forward to having you join us again.

Beautiful Updated Condo in a Perfect Location
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience booking this vacation through VRBO. Kent was so helpful with great area information and attentive to all of questions. The condo is so nicely kept and was very clean. A few helpful items were left on the kitchen counter to help us when we arrived including Coffee! We loved spending time around the Kitchen Breakfast counter and relaxing on the balcony one morning when it was raining. Like many areas in the Keys, the complex is right off overseas highway but our friends in the front bedroom could not hear any road noise in the unit thanks to the new hurricane windows. We walked to and from some great restaurants and really enjoyed fishing from the Tiki Hut in the Marina. Thank you Kent for making our vacation stay perfect! We look forward to coming back in December.

The Moon Bay Resort was comfortable and easy access from HWY 1 and other activities.
Kent was very good at getting back to us with answers to any questions. The condo floors were under some renovation while we were there so they were partially completed. The floor will look very nice once completed. The condo itself fits four people comfortably, especially if you use the outside patio area. Remember there is no beach at the resort but it does have a beautiful pool and marina where you can sit and watch the gorgeous sunsets! John Pennekemp State Park is a few miles away which does offer a beach ($2.50 person). Snorkeling and scuba diving tours are available at the park. If you are at all queasy on a boat make sure you take your Dramamine! Keys are approximately 2 hour drive away from condo. Plenty of souvenir shops etc near as well. My husband and I plus 2 daughters (age 16 and 27) enjoyed our stay! Would stay there again!

Jill,
Thank you again for the feedback. You are absolutely correct that the marina and sunsets are spectacular! When we purchased in the Keys, we chose Sunsets and the Bay side over the Ocean side because of those sunsets. Pennekamp State Park is perfect for beach access and easy snorkel tours. Please let us know if we can accommodate your next trip to the beautiful Florida Keys.

Margaret,
So sorry you encountered these issues at our unit. As you mentioned, I am very responsive and would have liked to have the opportunity to resolve these issues during your stay. We do our best to keep the unit turnkey for your stay and will check why the basic amenities were not left for you upon check-in. Appreciate the feedback and glad you were able to enjoy the property besides the poor job by the cleaning crew.

About the host
Hosted by Kent Coviello
My family has lived in Florida for more than 25 years. We enjoy being outdoors and taking advantage of the beautiful weather Florida has to offer year round. Our Vacation Home is our summer getaway when the children are out of school and us adults have time off. We now live full time in beautiful Key Largo.
Why they chose this property
We chose Moon Bay after renting a unit on property during Labor Day weekend of 2013. We did not end that vacation until we had an offer placed on the unit we currently own. After many upgrades and renovation of the kitchen and bathroom, it has truly turned into the perfect vacation home for our family. We take pride in our property and ask our guest to do the same. Please understand that this is our summer home that we rent when we are unable to use it and not a hotel.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful resort like amenities without the higher hotel cost and Resort Fee.
