4 night stay in January for deep sea fishing

Rosario did a great job making the entire stay efficient and seamless. Not one hiccup or issue with before or after our stay. Highly recommended. The location is close to other keys and shopping and restaurants, but in itself is a quiet little secluded island. Very unique.

Amazing stay at Duck Keys

We had a wonderful stay at this Duck Keys condo. Everything was clean and updated and the location was perfect to drive into Marathon or Islamorada for day trips. We loved the back porch with the soaking pool overlooking the canal. Rosario was very attentive and checked in with us several times over our stay to make sure everything was okay. Definitely would stay here again!!

Getaway

We enjoyed the home we stayed in. It was as expected based on the pictures and prior reviews. Contact w/ the property manager was great. They made it simple to check in. The location was the only downside because it is so far from places to eat and we knew this going into the booking. We thought the restaurant onsite would be a good option however it was very expensive. The view was nice and the service was good but for the prices the portions were small and the food was so-so. We were able to Instacart a few things but door dash was not a viable option as only one place delivered and the menu was limited. Overall, we did enjoy the space, the outdoor plunge pool and the weather was ideal.

This was a wonderful property to stay at for our 5nights in the keys. It was a middle point to spend a day in either key west or key largo. Villa was clean and simply furnished. Hot tub was perfect for sore muscles after a long day of fun in the sun. Rosario is prompt with information needed to make our stay comfortable. There is a limited amount of supplies, so be sure to read the list, as some might need to shop for more items before arrival.

Good Time, No Boardwalk

We had a great time at this property. The layout was perfect for a family, and we enjoyed having a private little splash pool. The property manager is fantastic and extremely responsive, which we appreciated. The only drawback was that we could not use the section of boardwalk/dock located in front of the unit, because it was condemned. My boys were hoping to fish off of it.

5 star stay

We enjoyed the villa. The beds were comfy and there was a coffee maker with everything needed so that you don't have to run out to a coffee shop. The plunge pool was a great touch for my toddler. I was lucky to find this place at the price point. Especially since I drug my feet in finding a place to stay. I don't like staying in hotels cause there isn't any privacy. Here I had all the privacy I needed. My only recommendation would be to equip the staircase with a locking gate for toddlers. Other than that...wonderful stay!!

Cute place on Duck Key

This is a cute cozy place in Duck Key. We enjoyed the plunge pool in the back and also walking around on the docks lining the canals on the property. We saw manatees and lots of fish right there. It’s about 20 minutes to Marathon & groceries though you can pick up snacks / soda / drinks at a small convenience type store at the resort. The kitchen has pots / pans that you can use to make basic dinners. The fridge is completely emptied between guests so you’ll have to bring everything you need to cook. Entire place is very clean. Check out is simple, just need to lock the place up.

Casa Wahoo Experience

The property was just as described in the listing, and it was clean and well supplied with toiletries and basic cleaning supplies upon our arrival. It was the perfect size for a family of four with two young kids. The location was excellent for our trip, as we ventured to different areas of the Keys each day. I would not hesitate to stay there again, and I will be recommending the property to anyone looking for a place to stay in the Florida Keys.

Absolutely gorgeous condo with the most accommodating hosts! 10 STARS!!!

Rosario and her husband went above and beyond to make our first trip together as a family extremely memorable. My partner and I stayed for 6 nights with our 1 month old angel on a much need Mother's Day get away!! Since we had our newborn with us we spent a majority of time in the condo relaxing and enjoying the plunge pool. The condo had high end quality pots and pans and mini oven that has the option to toast, bake and air fry! The kitchen was PERFECT for those self proclaim chefs!! You can not beat a morning walk around Hawks Cay taking in all its nature and beauty. The restaurants are open to the public and were top notch, keep in mind the amenities i.e (hotel pools and lagoon) are restricted to members and hotel guest only but it did NOT matter one bit. You can eat at the pool bar and have drinks at all the restaurants. We ventured out easily to Islamorada and Marathon and enjoyed the surrounding keys. The condo was only 15 mins away from beautiful Sombrero beach which has a Publix and liquor store right there and multiple places to eat. Then 30 mins north the most AMAZING sunset at Pierres for a romantic evening. You can also travel 12 mins and go feed the tarpon at Robbie's. We will definitely be back very soon and we HIGHLY recommend staying here!! Thank you for the lasting memories God Bless...
