I am no stranger to beachfront/oceanfront vacation rentals - I’ve rented several ranging from Texas to Florida over the years. Most of my experiences have been relatively positive, but there are always little quirks, and the properties always tend to look better in the photos than in person, so I keep an open mind when I open the door to a vacay rental for the first time.
Well, I have to say that for the first time, I opened the door to a property that far EXCEEDED the online description and photos!!! The condo was so clean, the kitchen was very well appointed, the towels and bed linens were plentiful and of good quality, and all the extras such as beach chairs, kayak, etc were just perfect! My family and I were truly impressed!
The view cannot be beat and the location was fantastic! It’s centrally located in The Keys, so we were able to drive up and down the islands to explore. It’s a quiet spot, which we really like. It’s fun to visit the busier spots like Key West, but at the end of the day I want to relax and hear the sounds of the ocean.
There was a lot of stinky seaweed in the water and on the beach, but I know that’s to be expected at times - it was just the timing of our trip. It wasn’t our first time experiencing manky ol seaweed, so we made the best of it. The pool is between the building and the ocean, so most of the time we just swam in the pool…while looking directly at the ocean…so that pretty much made up for the seaweed issue!
Checking in was a breeze and Todd emailed all pertinent information in a timely manner.
I cannnot say enough nice things about this rental - I highly recommend to anyone needing a smaller rental in The Keys. We will definitely be back!
