Paradise

Our stay was nothing short of perfection. From the moment we entered the unit till the time of checkout we were just in aww. The photos online are exactly as the unit appears. The view, amenities, parking, closeness to everything was top notch as described. Communiation with property owner was so timely and appreciated. Parking is wonderful shall you rent a vehicle. Definitely home away from home. I will 100% return but, for more than one week. The comfort of the unit and property will keep me returning for years to come. It's a full 10/10 in my opinion.

Didn't Want To Leave

The unit was clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed. The property was beautiful and well maintained, with beautiful views from the beach area. The pool was spectacular, and the hot tub was relaxing and the perfect temperature. The neighborhood is relatively quiet, great for walking and easy access to both Smathers and Higgs Beaches. Communication with the host and the property management company was excellent. We will be back!

Beautiful

This condo was beautiful and just as it was described. The location was perfect because it was away from all the busy streets and crowds but only a 10-15min golf cart ride to all the attractions in Key West. We will definitely stay here again and recommend this condo to all our friends and family.

Highly recommended

Mike was a most gracious host. Checked in on us multiple times. The unit itself is wonderfully appointed. I cooked breakfast every day and dining out on the large deck overlooking the amazing grounds out to the ocean was phenomenal. A great way to start every day. Close enough and far enough away, very quiet and easy to get around from there. We loved it and will be staying in this unit again soon!!

Key West Get Away

We had a great vacation even with the crazy weather. Our place was comfortable, clean and cozy. It’s great to have a wonderful place to come back to after doing a bunch of tourist attractions and going to the pool. Our host Mark was checking in on us with the hurricane weather to make sure we were okay and to see if we needed anything. We had a great stay and would highly recommend it.

Great 4 Night Stay

Great four night stay in this beautiful, comfortable rental with a gorgeous view. Exactly as advertised and very clean. Appreciate that the owners called to check on us the morning after our first night. Not sure if it’s the time of year, but we also had the pool area almost entirely to outselves on multiple days which was very nice. Would recommend and hope to visit again on our next trip to Key West!

Beautiful property

This is a pretty location and super clean condo.it was easy to find. The parking spot in the multi car garage to left of the east entrance is a good size spot. The owners were friendly and in contact with us right away so I believe if you have issues they would be good to work with. The only negative is hearing the dump trucks by the pool and the dust all over everything outside. But it was noted in the description that there is a current renovation project there. There is also a lot of remodeling going on inside the other neighbors units so you hear a lot of those noises. my suggestion is to enjoy the ocean sports we loved our snorkeling trip.and sunset cruises. . This condo is a lovely place to stay..

Key west condo

It was great overall. A few little things though. The patio furniture was stuck in place. Moving them took muscle. I was thinking it’s set up that way because of strong winds. There was a knock on the door mid week with guy asking if we wanted an exterminator. I thought it would have been nice to have a heads up from the owner. Good notes. It was a great location and plenty of room for putt family. Great view of the ocean. Nice that there was a library “room” and a game room(but didn’t see any paddles for the ping pong table). Our visit came with rain and storms everyday but we still had a great time around town.
