Great Location

We had a great time staying here. House was perfect for us and the location was perfect to explore many of the keys! The bikes and kayaks that were provided were a great treat for the kids. We had fun biking around the village and swimming in the pool during down time. Would definitely stay here again!

Great for Family Vacation

Last Key Realty was great communicating prior, during and after the stay. The property was clean and exactly as described in the listing. It included lots of extras such as kayaks, beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, and coolers which made this a 5 star stay. The community was a clean and safe and close to many Keys’ attractions.

Great place

The house overall was amazing. Clean, with everything you could possibly need while on vacation. Master shower could be a little bigger but you don't go in vacation for the shower. Lol. The resort was top notch and everyone was so friendly. Will def be looking to stay here again in the future.

Roaches everyday in kitchen and bathroom. Disgusting! I’m from Florida but you can control roaches! I didn’t want to be in there. Beds were box spring and two queens. Master should have a king and newer mattresses .

No notice of compact parking

When we were asked about our vehicle make and model, no consideration was given about the compact parking this rental property had. We received a parking ticket by the community that my truck was in the road blocking traffic. Which is was not. I have picture proof. My truck was clear as day pulled in the driveway as far as possible with maybe half an average handprint of my tire sticking out. Just beyond uncalled for. Especially when anyone with common sense can see that I was pulled in to the best if my ability.

Boaters paradise

My family stayed here for 4 nights and couldn’t be happier. Hurricane Helene threw a wrench in our plans but we made the most of it. The location of this home could not be more perfect. The dock is large with a wonderful location to get out on the water with beautiful views. The home was adorable and well stocked with everything you could need! I also must point out that the ice maker is wonderful and makes a good amount of ice. We enjoyed having bikes to scoot around. Lots of yummy restaurants nearby and friendly neighbors. Charity was super communicative and friendly. We will be back for sure ! 10/10 recommend.
