Keys family vacation

The property exceeded every expectation. The house was clean and in a great location. Docking the boat outside was easy and convenient. We enjoyed using the pool and having a drink under the tiki hut in the afternoon. It had everything we needed and Bud the property manager was very helpful. We can’t wait to come back.

Great property.

Just spend the month of February at this property. Communication with the owner was amazing. Property Manager (handyman) was very responsive to any request we had. Great having the heated pool and use of the boat lift. The property was clean upon arrival. Nice set up for couples or families with the 2 separate living quarters. Walking distance to coffee shop, restaurant, breakfast place and bait shop. Thanks Dave!!

Spectacular Getaway

My family and I stayed at this spectacular property for an extended weekend getaway in Tavernier. We were able to launch our boat less than 7 minutes away from the property and keep our boat on the dock for easy access to nearby sandbars. The pool was exquisite and relaxing. The homeowner has really thought about all the needs of a guest including an on location grill and ice machine. This saved my family and I lots of time when filling our coolers for a day on the water. Rooms, kitchens and bathrooms were updated and very clean. Bud, the round the clock property manager, was excellent, helpful and very kind. We are eager to return in the near future. This property exceeded my family and I’s expectations.

Highly Recommend!

We recently had the pleasure of staying with friends at a beautiful house that truly exceeded our expectations. The property was exceptionally clean, which immediately made me feel at home. **Amenities:** The highlight of this house is undoubtedly the pool. It was perfectly maintained, offering a refreshing escape during the warmer days. The surrounding area was beautifully landscaped, providing a relaxing atmosphere for lounging and enjoying the sun. Additionally, the dockage space was a fantastic feature for anyone looking to enjoy water activities. Whether you're into boating, fishing, or just want to spend some time by the water, this space caters to all those needs. **Overall Experience:** The cleanliness of the home was remarkable. It felt like well-cared-for, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the surroundings. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and provided all the necessary information for a seamless stay. **Recommendation:** I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a getaway that combines relaxation and outdoor activities. It’s perfect for families, couples, or anyone wanting to experience a tranquil retreat.
