Awesome week in KCB

Communication from the property owner was excellent, making arrival and entry fast & easy. Property is clean, comfortable, well equipped and very convenient to the Cabana Club. KCB is a great place to visit and relax. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend this property.

Beautiful & Exotic

Was roomy and clean with all the amenities. More than enough beach towels, spices to cook with, seats for everyone, etc! The pool and Havana Jack’s was right across the street. The mornings were beautiful with birds, palm trees, & the beauty of the Keys! Highly recommend. So many restaurants and shops! All the beaches are very close.

Vacation

Loved it, perfect for us. All communication was great. Great property. Great neighborhood. Felt very safe and was quiet at night. Great area for walking. Perfect location to explore all of the Keys. The nostalgia appliances were cool. Had everything we needed. Nice to have access to the Cabana Club and beach but they are strict on what can be brought in. Next time we visit the Keys, this will be on the top of our list.

Relaxing Getaway

“The Keys to Happiness” was absolutely perfect for our family. Location was perfect-we were able to kick back and relax after days spent at the pool and different beaches. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. Communication with the owners was easy and they were very prompt in replying. I am telling everyone how great our trip was and that they need to stay here! :)

Great stay at the beach!

2nd time staying at the property. Love the proximity to both the regular beach as well as the cabana club., as well as the rest of the restaurants. The property ownership was in transition, but the new owner Laurie did a great job during it all. The only big improvement I would suggest is putting up curtains in the bedroom. The room gets bright in the morning and it is necessary to use a sleep mask or cover your face with a pillow to block out the sun in the morning.

Great house in a great location! Family friendly.

This duplex is just one block from the ocean using the Cabana Club facilities just across the street. House is very well equipped being a rental house. Frying pans were brand new! All necessities provided, i.e. TV, Wifi, towels, linen etc. Nice to have breakfast on the porch as well as an afternoon beer. Communication with the owner was seamless and the deposit was returned very fast. Can recommend this place and the small community of Key Colony Beach. It is a small and friendly neighbourhood where people seem to know each other. Very calm and safe. Marathon is close by for shopping etc. If there is one thing on the negative side, the beach is not there for your morning walk.

Anniversary get away

WOW! This place is perfect! Love the decor. Super clean. Quite neighborhood. Laurie and Joe where easy to get a hold of and where very responsive to any questions or concerns that we had. Also liked meeting your mom and dad! The condo is in the perfect location. Easy to go north to Key Largo or south to Key west, both within an hour or so drive. The passes to the Cabana Club across the road were awesome. So easy to just walk over and enjoy the pool/beach and restaurant/bar. Grocery stores, post office, restaurants all very conveniently close by. Would highly recommend Sunset beach just down the road for a beautiful sunset. Sombrero beach is only about 15-20 min. south of the condo. Would also recommend Sunset Bar & Grill for the food and sunsets. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this condo. Thank-you Laurie and Joe for sharing your home with us and adding those special touches to make our stay memorable! Hope to be back in the future. Karen & Sherman

Great vacation

We really enjoyed the property. Laura is very kind and helpful. Condo is large and it was plenty of space for our family of 5. Just a short walk to a cabana club which has a pool and a beach. Overall property was very clean and well taken care of, owners have done some updates lately. 5 out of 5.

Comfy, convenient, and charming

Located right across the road from the Cabana Club and Havana Jacks. Unfortunately, HJ was closed for vacation. Bright, cheery condo with cute retro accessories and everything you would possibly need for a great vacation. The owner, Laurie, and I had great communication and we loved that she shared the area restaurants and things to do. There's a washer and dryer and tons of towels. The mattresses were so comfortable and I loved the ceiling fans in every room. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks Laurie!

I was in regular correspondence with Laurie regarding the stay, before and during the trip. This is a lovely spacious condo in a great area. It has plenty of space for a family of older teenagers as we have. The Beach Club is just on the other side of a quiet road which adds to the amenities availbale at the property.

Perfect Location - Best Value

This is not the largest or most luxurious house on Key Colony Beach, but it’s hands down the best house for the money. The location is perfect, right across the street from the Cabana Club and Key Colony Beach is a great place to stay to explore Marathon. The house is clean, well stocked, and well maintained. We like to cook on vacation and the house had everything we needed, including a gas grill. If you’ve read this fall, let me save you some time, just book the house, you will enjoy it. We had 2 adults and 4 kids and were very comfortable. The house would be comfortable with 4 adults and fine with 6 adults as long as someone is ok with a pull out couch. The two bathrooms were a little small, but it’s better to have two than one large one. The Cabana Club is close enough it’s almost like having a pool and beach at your house. It was easy enough that we went over several times just for a quick dip in the pool or hot tub. We’ve stayed in a number of house rentals and Steve is the best owner we’ve ever rented from. Communication was great and it was very clear he wanted us to have a great stay. He made the whole process smooth and easy. We would definitely rent from him again, and would love to stay here another time.
