This is our second time staying in this specific cottage and it was wonderful. It was very clean with plenty of storage and kitchen ware for our family of 3. The location was perfect for our Islamorada plans. Make sure you bring your own salt/pepper and laundry detergent if you plan to cook or do laundry.

Incredible Cottage

We had the best family vacation! The location is central to great entertainment and restaurants but also secluded enough to be a quiet retreat at night. Loved the pool and the cleanliness of the property! We can’t wait to come back.

Great Little Place!

We stayed here with our son. Its not huge but a very nice updated home that makes great use of the space available. The pool area is very nice. The neighborhood is great for walks and there is a great walking path next to the highway that you can go a long ways on. We highly recommend a stay here!

Great little hideaway

This space was perfect for two people looking to explore the Keys. It would work for three people but be tight for 4. It was clean, adequately equipped, and easy to find. Would definitely stay here again.
