Bumpa’s Big House – A Perfect Family Retreat in the Florida Keys

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our extended family (five families, 20 people in total) had an incredible stay at Bumpa’s Big House! This property was the perfect blend of space, comfort, and convenience — an ideal oasis for a large group getaway.What We Loved:* Immaculately clean and tastefully furnished* Every bed was comfortable — great for winding down after sun-filled days* More than enough bathrooms and showers for our group* Pool + hot tub = perfection. We used it every day!* Ice for days: two craft ice makers, an industrial machine, plus three fridges with ice and water dispensers* Short, easy walk to beautiful Sombrero Beach* Property managers were responsive, friendly, and helpful* Fully stocked with kitchen tools, games, beach gear, towels, and more* Three sets of washers and dryers — super handy for a big group* Strong and reliable WiFi throughout the houseGood to Know:* The provided “starter pack” included 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom and small portions of detergent, dish soap, and trash bags — plan to bring more or purchase extras in town* Pillows were on the flatter side — some guests may want to bring their own for extra comfort* The pool has a textured bottom, which can be rough on sensitive feet (especially for kids)* The on-demand hot water system takes a bit to reach the top floor* The kitchen is located on the top (third) floor, so getting food to the poolside grill means using the stairsOverall, the home was exactly as described, and truly exceeded our expectations. It was thoughtfully designed for larger groups and felt like a home away from home. We’d absolutely return and recommend Bumpa’s Big House to other large families or groups looking to enjoy the Florida Keys in comfort and style!

Amazing!!!

This property is incredible!!! It was perfect for our large group (8 adults and 7 teenage boys). Everyone had their own space. We loved all of the outdoor sitting areas. The company was so easy and kind to work with and responded to our minor issues quickly. It is truly a wonderful rental for a large group.

This House Is Awesome!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a group of 20 people ranging in age from 5 to 70 and we all had a great time. There was nothing we needed that wasn’t already there. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and not feel like we were on top of each other- really appreciated the comfy king beds. The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of dishes and utensils and the duplicate appliances made meals much easier. Best VRBO to date!

Great vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Bumps’s Big House was exactly as described and shown in pictures. We had 15 adults and there was plenty of room to spare! The house had everything you could possibly need. The pool was great, and the fishing from the dock was great too. We even had a manatee family visit us more than once! The customers service was equally as good! I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this house. The location is perfect!

Bumpa is the BEST!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home was incredible... we had two families with 6 adults and 4 kids, so we didn't even use half of the bedrooms, but the space is unbelievable. Bumpa thought of everything for a large family: 4 full size refrigerators (two on the upper living room/kitchen level, one on the mid level bedroom/kitchenette area, and an outdoor one for the pool and boat drinks on the main floor); 3 washer/dryer frontloaders (that's 3 front load washers and 3 front load dryers y'all!) for the constant laundry and towels needed when swimming and boating (even a large drying rack for hang-drying all those swim suits); a huge commercial ice maker so we didn't have to stop at bait shops or run to the store every day for bags of ice to fill the boat and the coolers; the main kitchen has two of everything (coffee makers, toasters, ovens, stoves, microwaves, dishwashers); enough glassware and dishes for an army; a huge pantry for storing food for a crowd... I mean seriously awesome. The boat dock is amazing, with filleting table and hose right there for boat and fish cleaning. The kids never got out of the pool, so awesome, and the shuffle board and putt putt was hours of entertainment. The only thing I could even think to suggest would be a new hose by the boat (it kinks really easily which is a pain when washing the boat) and additional pool towels (there were enough for our group of 10, but if the house was filled to capacity there wouldn't be enough. We had the best time in this home, the management company was extremely kind and accommodating, and we will absolutely be back to stay as soon as we can!

Great Vacation

The house was amazing. 11 bedrooms - everyone had their own space, TV and bathroom and loved it. Lots of stairs but manageable. Great amenities, the host pretty much thought of everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms. Pool was fabulous from the lounging area to the main swimming area into the hot tub the size of a standard pool. Lights at night and the sitting area surrounding made the experience wonderful. Highly recommend to anyone with a large group.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing week staying in this beautiful house. We had zero problems. We had 15 adults and 7 children and there was plenty of room for us all. Every bedroom had it's own bathroom. There is a large, well stocked kitchen on the top floor. There were lot's of stairs but even my 85 year old mom decided it kept us all in shape during the week. Everyone loved the pools and the kids fished all day. We would highly recommend this house and we are planning our next stay here.

What a GREAT time!

We had a wonderful time here... the home and rooms are clean, comfortable, and have plenty of furniture around for gatherings. The boat slip was perfect for the jetskis, and located right at the mouth of the canal for easy access. All of the amenities with the pool/ games kept everyone cool and entertained all day. The location was ideal, with the big grocery store just up the road, and the beach a few blocks away. Having multiple appliances isn't something you think about until you have a large group... but even that was nice to have. My family really enjoyed the place. Only thing if im being petty.... come on, get another grill, the 3 there are junk.

Already booked our week next year!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently rented this property for 5 families including 9 children. This property was absolutely perfect. There were plenty of bedrooms with comfortable and large beds all with an en-suite bathroom. We were all able to be together but also had our own personal space. The laundry room was great with 3 washer and dryers along with a large ice machine. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need and there was a convenient wet bar and fridge in the downstairs pool area. The pool was wonderful with great afternoon and evening sun. We had jet skis for the week and the canal had quick access to the ocean. Beach is only a quick walk away. Location is perfect and convenient to anything you may need in Marathon. There were a few things we needed to point out to the rental company: a broken door handle and dirty grills but we otherwise had zero issues. We would highly recommend to anyone with a large group. This place has it all.

Bumpa's Great Vacation Spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Bumpa's Big House is beautiful. We were a group of 16 and everyone was very comfortable. The proerty was very clean; th pool and hot-tub were amazing; the sitting areas are superb; customer service was wonderful; location was great - near the beach and shopping areas. The one problem we had was taken care of right away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The one suggestion I would like to make is that the property be made more accessible. It is not ideal for oder people or people with disabilities. A lift or elevator would have been ideal in this three-story building, especially since the main kitchen and eating area is on the third floor. We wsould really like to return to Bumpa's Big House next New Year's, but we would need for it to be more accessible. Thank you.
