The house is fine and will serve your vacation needs— but let’s be honest, you’re not going for the house. You’re going for the beach. The back patio and waterfront is amazing. Parrotfish, mangrove snapper, sting rays and nurse sharks (docile, beautiful!) right off the dock. Unforgettable family vacation, can’t recommend enough.

Hi Matt, thank you for the great review. I’m glad the house met your vacation needs and that the back patio and waterfront made the trip unforgettable. It’s wonderful to hear your family enjoyed the marine life off the dock. Thanks for the recommendation — we’d love to host you again.

A hidden gem. Extremely peaceful. Had the whole beach to ourselves. The water is constantly moving due to tides, which is nice as you can sit, swim or wade in the water and enjoy the cool, clean water going by. Has all the beach amenities you can ask for. Docking our 22’ boat was not problem. The management company was very responsive and took care of a couple issues immediately. Make sure to bring your own spices and some extra citranella candles. The house itself is dated but you don’t rent this place to sit inside. The outdoor area is second to none. Can’t wait to go back.

Lovely Beach Getaway
We loved staying here. We had 4 adults and 3 children with us so we rented both sides of the duplex. The house has everything you will need while visiting. One of the sides of the duplex was very musty when we arrived. We had to open up the windows to air it out the first night. The beach is gorgeous and there is sea grass in the water so that may deter some people. We enjoy snorkeling so the grass wasn’t an issue for us. When snorkeling in front of the house we saw a manatee, barracuda, stingray, sea turtle, and multiple other tropical fish. We fished from the dock and from the fishing bridge which is a short walk from the house. We are so grateful for ability to unplug and enjoy some family time. We are already planning our return next spring!

Nice spot for a quiet vacation. A bit hard to find as it is just before the bridge. Located between Marathon and Islamorada. 2&1/2 mile bridge is a GREAT morning walk. Fishing off of the bridge or from the property dock. Great deck for enjoying a cocktail or dinner. lots of "toys" provided i.e. paddle boards, kayaks etc. Overall the description on AirBNB is accurate. I'd rent this place again!!!!

Me and 2 of my best friends stayed here for a girls trip. Amazing place with amazing views. Perfect to relax and unwind. Close enough to still do sight seeing, but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet. Thank you!! We will definitely be back!!

Nice accommodations on the Atlantic side of the key. The outside space offered both covered and uncovered areas for sitting and relaxing. Nice beach and dock for swimming, snorkeling and fishing.
