Great spot

Well equipped home in great location. Many good restaurants close by as well as activities. This is one of the nicest places we’ve stayed at in the Keys

Great location!

Very cozy home! Great canal front. Pleasant street and the homes across the street are directly on the ocean. The home is clean, well equipped and comfortable. Really enjoyed our trip and we would stay here again!

Great place for 2 adults

This is a very nice house on a canal. It is clean and inviting, with a back deck on the canal.The master bedroom is spacious with an en suite. The second bedroom is small with bunk beds that would be OK for 2 kids but not adult friendly. There is a second bathroom that was nice. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly. It's a 5 minute ride to Harry Harris beach, which is a quite little beach great for hanging out but not for swimming. We enjoyed swimming at Founders Park pool,with has many lap lanes and is about 20 minutes south. All in all it was a very pleasant and relaxing stay for the month we were there.

Great Vacation Spot

Fantastic property with great location. Our month stay was absolutely wonderful in this great house that opens up to the ocean. We had our boat with us on this stay and enjoyed the ease of hopping on our boat and enjoying everything this location had to offer. The house itself is incredibly clean and comfortable. We would highly recommend this location to anyone interested.

4 Month stay on the water

Very good location and well supplied. You can fly in and most every kitchen item and linen is there. Neighbors are all nice. New interior flooring, furniture, and refridge with a ice maker is really is great. A/C works well Parking good. Landlord cares about making your stay enjoyable.

So much fun

We had a great time, the outside patio is just perfect. So many perfect weather nights sitting outside with friends. The one suggestion I would make is the inside needs a table (or a desk) to sit at with some comfortable chairs. We brought our laptops and working at the counter on a bar stool wasn't ideal. Overall though, we had a blast and would love to come back again!

Lovely canal home!

Lovely home with beachy decorations! Very comfortable. I would’ve given it five stars but there was no icemaker so I had to buy bags of ice during my stay. Atlantic ocean is right across the street so you always have a great sea breeze! Conveniently located between Key Largo and Islamorada. Lots of things to see and do! The owners are just the best.

Had excellent vacation.

This place was everything as described. Clean fresh bright. All amenities were there and functioning. Plenty of towels and accessories, kitchen well stocked, especially if you fly for a stay. The owner, Angel, was quick to respond to any questions we had. We would stay there again without hesitation.

Exactly what the online pictures described it to be. A great stay!

We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Angel was very cooperative and responded to our emails or calls promptly. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants a stress free, enjoyable stay in the Keys. Looking forward to renting here again next year!

Perfect Ocean Access and nice clean accomodations

The house was perfect for our stay. It was comfortable and clean and met my objective for short access to the ocean for a week of fishing. Angel was extremely helpful with any concerns I had.

Beautiful relaxing property

My family of 3 just spent a week at this property. It was very clean, welcoming and beautifully decorated. The open floor plan was conducive for spending time together as a family. There was a great selection of games. The outdoor porch space was nice and spacious overlooking the canal in back. The weather was breezy so it was very pleasant back there. The landlord was very helpful and accommodating. Our family loves the Keys and we definitely would consider returning to the property in the future.

Location and more!

Angel Garcia, the owner, was very responsive in answering our questions in a timely manner. This is always a peace of mind BONUS when using Home Away. The property was spotless and well equipped for our 9 day stay at the end of March. We rented a boat and kept it right in front of the house. Located right off Hwy #1 and within minutes of good restaurants and a major grocery store, it gave us flexibility to enjoy the area. The location is Oceanside and within a few minutes by boat to a fuel stop under the Tavernier bridge/channel, bayside. The pictures shown are accurate and the furniture and beds very comfortable. We will highly recommend Angel and his home for your next visit to the Florida Keys. Be sure to check with Angel directly regarding the payment method. He does a great job of guiding you through it.

Good home for great Keys vacation

We spent 10 weeks at this house and had a great time. It is spacious and nicely decorated. There is a comfortable king sized bed in the master bedroom and a queen bunkbed (unusual, but our guests reported to be comfortable) in the spare bedroom. We often ate outdoors on large porch, but also enjoyed the many nearby restaurants. We are avid kayakers and the canal is a short paddle to the ocean. The outside is totally fenced in making it safe for our small dog to be off leash. Biking in the Keys can be risky, but the path on Burton Road, then north headed towards Key Largo is safe. The owner, Angel, is open and responsive. Bonnie and Frank from Philadelphia.
