Great time as expected
The property was amazing. The house, canal and boat lift made our fishing and boating a breeze. I hope they're house is available next time were visiting. Also with any issues that came up which were not too many they were always available to answer questions.

The home was very nice, well stocked. I didn’t get from the listing there wasn’t a first floor or the only entrance was with stairs I should’ve known probably just my overlook. We had trouble with the boat lift a lot and with the price we paid for our stay we had hoped this would be a big part of it being able to use. We had to call about above ground pool being serviced and my husband wasn’t a fan of the grill however overall the home was clean, well stocked. There were 6 of us and to use the nice dining room table we had to move the couch over quite close towards TV shrinking the living room quite a bit. From the pictures the house did appear to be bigger. But I could’ve looked at sq. Footage etc. the owners were very responsive.

Amazing home in paradise
Beautiful home, exactly as pictured. Everything looks brand new and is in pristine condition. Well stocked kitchen with all the cookware, utensils, dishes, etc that you could need. Pantry had some basics like salt & pepper and cooking oil, which is always appreciated. Both lanais are screened in and have tons of room. We spent most of out time at the home outside on the upper lanai. Kids loved the pool (temporary above ground pool until the inground pool is constructed). The garage was available for use, which you do not always find in vacation rentals. There were 2 paddle boards and some yard games available for use. Quiet, residential neighborhood. Location is convenient to Key West, Marathon, each about a 30 minute drive. Bahia Honda state park is very close and Blue Hole is on the same key. Kelly was very responsive and accommodating. Couldn't have been happier with the rental. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting the lower keys.

Construction nightmare
There was confusion as to the listing to start.The inground pool will not be installed untill the end of 2023. I did not want to be on vacation if there was construction of a pool on the site. I was told there would be an above ground pool installed for our use. A month later, a few days prior to our stay the pool had not yet been installed. I was told it would be installed in a few days. There was no pool when we arrived. They asked if I wanted them to proceed with the installation of the pool as it would only take a couple of days. I agreed. A load of sand was delivered, the fence was removed. (they were very accomodating as to the fence getting temporarily put up due to our dog)Finally1 man came with 1 shovel. He dug the first day he was not sure if he could install the pool himself. Obviousy we would not have a pool for our stay. The oweners offered to give us a 3 day discount for our inconvenience. This was also due to(out of their control)the nextdoor neighbor was under contruction on their dock and had jack hammering daily. Also being told it would only be 3 days.
We had to leave the house daily due to the noise and we could not use the back yard. We asked for a refund and went to stay elsewhere. We were given a credit for the 4 days we left but no compaensaition for the 10 days with no pool as advertised. The house is nice, bring everything you need as they are new and do not have much. The neighborhood is just OK.
