Key Colony Beach Escape

The property is exactly as shown on VRBO. It was very clean and ready for our stay. Dee was very responsive for the minor problems that came up, even notifying us about the town having a water main break and subsequent boil order. The bikes and kayaks are a big plus along with the Cabana Club. I can't say enough good things about Dee.

Clean and comfortable. Great Location

Great location. The Caban club was a nice treat. The waterfront bulkhead was convenient for docking our boat. The beds were extremely comfortable and the home was exceptionally clean. The living room and family room furniture could use some updating, however everything was clean and comfortable.

About the host

Hosted by Dee

Host profile image
My dad, Gerald Smith originally bought this duplex for family vacation and have SO many wonderful memories! He and my mom loved it so much there, they eventually moved to Key Colony Beach! They lived in KCB for about 10 years, they sold 1/2 of the duplex, enjoying Keys life in the other half. A few years later, due to decline in health, they moved closer to children.
Since moving to the " mainland" we decided to make their keys home available to others so that they could make their own keys memories with their families and friends and enjoy it as much as our family has and continues to do when we can
