Great place to stay!

The property supported our needs to a “T”! We travel to the Keys annually and need a place that is on the water, has a dock, a pool, is clean, and has the necessary amenities. This place had all of that and had lots of wildlife in and out of the water. We will stay here again if available on our next visit to the Keys.

We had a great week at this property and ultimately gave it 5 stars because it delivered exactly what we needed: an unbeatable location, beautiful water views, and a convenient home base for exploring the Keys.The biggest strengths are definitely the setting and location. The views are fantastic, and Grassy Key was a great central location for day trips both north and south. We spent most of our time out exploring, on the water, or enjoying the area, so having an affordable waterfront place to return to each evening worked well for our family.As fellow vacation rental hosts, I do think it’s important to set realistic expectations. This is not a luxury property or what many travelers would consider a “5-star experience” home. The house itself is quite basic and could benefit from some updates and repairs. The beds were not particularly comfortable, and amenities were minimal compared to many vacation rentals we have stayed in. If you’re looking for a highly appointed property with premium furnishings, extra touches, and resort-style comforts, this may not be the best fit.That said, if your priorities are location, views, affordability, and having a simple place to sleep between adventures, this property offers good value. It worked well for our family because we were rarely inside, and the waterfront setting was the real highlight of the stay.

The view this house has is absolutely stunning! I could stare at the water for hours. All the different blues and greens.The house could use a little TLC but honestly I'm there to enjoy the gorgeous water. The pool needs some painting but nothing that hinders your experience.The house is large and roomy!The beds are extremely comfortable and so is the couch in the living room after a busy days in the Keys ,that's a plus! I walk every morning and the neighborhood is extremely safe and beautiful.Honestly we had a wonderful time and can't say enough about the View!We sat at the dock every night for sunsets and saw dolphins, sharks, manatees, lots of fish and turtles. Absolutely breathtakingWe had a blast! Blessed to have a beautiful week of weather as well!Frank is very communicative and friendly All in all a great experience

A wonderful vacation rental. The house was very clean on arrival. Kitchen was fully equipped. The dock was a dream for taking the boat out everyday. We enjoyed the pool in the afternoons. Each bedroom has an en suite bathroom which is ideal in a vacation rental. I would recommend and we will most likely try to book again next year.

The location is fantastic. The house leaves something to be desired. Cracked and loose floor tiles, missing shower tile, heat listed on amenities but not in place (though space heaters were ultimately provided when requested). Kayak/canoe listed in amenities, but were not on property until asked for. The property maintenance staff member, Yoan, was excellent and helped us in many ways. I can't say enough about him, he is great. I could go on with other issues but let me say, location is ideal. My group is low maintenance and we had a great, great time. However, do not expect to arrive at a property in good shape.

Great location.There were a few things broken in the house when we got there. No big deal. We let them know.My main problem was that the hot tub isn't actually a hot tub, although lusted in the amenities as a hot tub. There are no jets and when I asked were the control for it was I was told it was listed as a spa, which is bunk.
