Nice open layout, clean, great central location. Pool was nice. Enjoyed checking out the fish in the canal. The huge tiki hut and outdoor living area was fantastic!!!
This property is just as it looks. The home is well decorated and cared for. Beds are comfortable. Pool is perfect. The cabana provides lovely sits in the shade while taking in the view. Our family of 5 loved it. Kids swam, fished the canal, enjoyed several visits from manatees. Highly recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay. It is a great location with the park down the street. The house is very comfortable. The property manager is very responsive. We had an issue with the pool and it was quickly resolved. The second fridge in the garage is a bonus. We would like to come back again.
Very beautiful home and very clean. We definitely enjoyed our stay. The house has easy access to fishing and lobster. We will for sure want to come back next year.
Great home on the water. Stayed for a week with the family. Had our boat in the back yard. Perfect location, clean, friendly owners. It was exactly what we were looking for.
The trip went perfectly, the home is beautiful and easy to access via boat. The hosts were there to accept delivery of some new furniture and they were the nicest people. We will definitely be back.
Great location. Hosts are very nice and accommodating. The place has plenty of room. Nicely appointed. The pool and Tiki are a great way to relax and enjoy the sea breezes. Would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend it
We had a great time and Rhonda was a great host. Anything that came up she immediately replied and helped. The house was very well stocked for everything we needed. Would stay again!
Highly recommend. Clean, convenient drive to restaurants and stores. Host reached out personally to ask if we needed anything. Top 5 places I’ve stayed at and I travel for a living. Will be booking again next year.
Beautiful place and a perfect setting. The property was as listed, clean and very well maintained. Close proximity to the beach and restaurants by car and a short walk to Dunkin’ Donuts which we walked to every morning. We seen manatees almost every day!! Rhonda was very responsive to any questions we had. Would definitely recommend staying here. And don’t forget the heated pool!!
We could not have asked for a better place to stay. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The outside patio and pool was wonderful too. We got to see the manatees outlook which we throughly enjoyed watching ! When we come back to the Keys we will definitely stay here again!
This property was extremely clean and well appointed. The pool was perfect to cool off and relax in. The HUGE covered patio was the STAR of the trip. There was always a cool breeze to be enjoyed under the shade of the enormous lanai! The owners were super helpful, friendly and down to earth. We WILL be back!
This house was exactly as listed! There was plenty of towels and kitchen items. The pool area was spacious and relaxing! The caretaker Jim was very nice and informative about the area. Rhonda was a pleasure to deal with! Would definitely stay here again!!!
This house is a very nice place to stay. It is clean and in good condition. The owners were great to deal with. The location was great for boating with quick access to the ocean (just follow the well marked stakes through the shallows and you will be fine with any sized boat). We will definitely be back!
We had a delightful stay at Sea Salt Cottage. The rooms are large, the kitchen is well-equipped, and the tiki hut and pool are great for reading and relaxing. There's some construction taking place on the other side of the canal, but the occasional noise wasn't bothersome. We were especially thrilled to see manatees in the canal -- they may have been the highlight of our trip. Communication with the owner was excellent.
We had an amazing time staying at the waterfront Keys cottage! The home was nicely updated, comfortable beds, clean and had all the supplies we needed, LOVED the pool and tiki hut and having our boat our back was even better! Only a few houses away from the Ocean! We had several friendly visitors every morning and afternoon- MANATEES! Hosts were very responsive. If we had a question, they responded right away! We were sad to leave and will definitely be back next year! (We didn’t take a lot of photos bc we were too busy relaxing!) The Keys is our ‘Happy Place’!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea Salt cottage. Rhonda was quick to respond to any questions or for dining recommendations which were also listed in the welcome pkg. Florida Steak and Lobster was our favorite! Easy check in and clean. We loved the Tiki hut and pool. Perfect for our 23 ft boat with easy access to Atlantic or gulf if you prefer. Beds were comfy and kitchen had everything we needed. Bonus access to garage to keep our boating/fishing stuff. Bait freezer was great. We will definitely return. Thank you again Rhonda for hosting us!
Alot of small trash front yard. No curtains or privacy in kitchen and living room. had to wait for cleaning lady at check in. Cleaning lady was dropped off 1hr 10min before check out and was standing outside with her equipment.

Thank you for the feedback.
For our future guests at our cottage. We did ask out landscaper to check the front yard for the small trash that was mentioned. He cleaned one area around the trash cans by the road but otherwise noted that the yard was indeed clean-the wind blows on the island, we all do our best to keep it clean.. Our cleaning staff works very hard to clean the house and have it ready for guests arriving. They do sometimes depend on others for transportation and may indeed arrive early but they never interrupt guests or enter the property as guests are gathering items to leave.
Our kitchen window is a pass though to the bar in the tiki and is a loved feature for guests that love spending time outside. We do not have blinds over that window as it looks directly out the back to the view of the canal. Read all our previous reviews about manatee sightings! The living room has a windowed door also facing the tiki/canal and view of the pool. We do not have blinds on that door as so much outdoor living occurs at this home and it brings it all together. All areas of needed privacy (bedrooms, bathrooms) have blinds and covered windows. We strive to have a great property that guests will enjoy and make memories to last a lifetime.
Sea Salt Cottage is a fabulous house on a beautiful canal leading into the Atlantic Ocean. The pictures don't show all the beauty in this house. My family and I had a wonderful time staying here. We brought our boat along with us and the docking area was great with a cleaning station. There were beach chairs and a cooler for us to use also. The accommodation of this home is amazing. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything that is needed. The owner responded quickly to our questions. Our family truly enjoyed our stay at Sea Salt Cottage. We would surely rent Sea Salt Cottage on our next trip to the Keys. 5 Stars
