Perfect spot to explore the keys and soak up the sun

Our family loved this house! The pool was warm and perfect for relaxing. Easy drive to Key West for a day trip, and right next to groceries and dining.The AC got the house COLD and there were so many little things the owners thought of to make our stay convenient and stress free. Highly recommend!

Wonderful house!

We really loved our stay at this beautiful house. Agree with a lot of the other reviews - house was super clean, centrally located, kitchen is about as well stocked as you could want, decor is beautiful, pool and downstairs hangout area are super fun, though it is a little odd the access is only from the front. Overall, it was everything we could ask for and we enjoyed our time here immensely.
