Best location by the beach
The perfect accommodations for our family of four, to include our 6 and 2 year old. The proximity the beach is unmatched! Loved the neighborhood & feeling very private. The pool being heated over 85 degrees was a game winner for us, as our kids always get cold in the pool. We especially loved the swim up bar/table! House was super clean and hosts were always responsive. The only negative I can think of is the street noise/low soundproofing from A1A that is more of a disturbance for sleep in the bedroom closest to the pool. Just a note if traveling with small children.

Great beach bungalow with pool and amazing location!
This was a great beach bungalow for our family of five. First - the location. You could. Or ask for a better location. The house is across the street from the beach, and while you can’t see the beach from the house (due to the $10+ million dollar beachfront homes) beach access is literally one minute away next to the Auberge. This area of beach is fronted by houses, condos and apartments, so there were rarely more than a handful of folks within a couple hundred years a of us. Also close to a ton of amenities and felt perfectly safe for our family of five (kids aged 7, 5 and 3). The house was perfect size for our family, and we didn’t spend much time inside anyways. The house was very clean when we arrived, not so much when we left (blame the kids!). The best feature of this house is the pool/garage. Pool was warm and crystal clear, and was cleaned twice during our stay. Next to the pool is a garage with games and TV that allowed the kids to hang while we stayed in the pool. We didn’t use the hot tub for more than a couple of minutes but it was very clean as well. One note of caution - the lizards love to climb the tree out back, eat the berries/leaves and then nature calls. My wife got pooped on while we were there! Haha not much you can do about nature. I was a bit nervous about renting from a company, as we typically rent from private individuals. However, the communication and service from Latitude Key and our concierge, Christina, could not be better.

Perfect for couples or families!
The property manager did an excellent job of communicating with us. The house was exactly as described and very clean. They supplied beach towels, bath products, paper goods, detergents, beach gear, ice chests, and chairs, which was extremely helpful as we flew into town. The pool and game room made for fun nights (our teenagers loved it) and during the day the beach was only about a three minute walk and not crowded at all. I would 100% recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

This may have been our favorite VRBO week ever. Start with the location of this cottage which really is only about 100 steps to a section of beach which is not crowded -- and the garage has beach chairs and beach carts. Then add the wonderfully private pool and patio in the back yard. Finally, the bedding and supplies are all top-notch. The house is not large but was perfect for us as a couple. Quiet neighborhood is great for walking and its only a short drive to many restaurants north or south. Good communication from property manager.
