Summer Vacation at Gulf side Gem! 45 ft. Dock, pool , hot tub and more

The house was very roomy for the amount of people we had, the house was equipped, with kayaks, bicycles , bbq grills and the ice machine was perfect, the location for us was perfect. The house was not exceptionally clean when we arrived, The Margaritaville Machine had mold in it, the dinnerware, silverware and pots and pans all needed to be washed before use. It definitely is not a place to take children, in my opinion there were to many hazards, even for adults. The pool area, had tripping hazards for the young and old, the door walls were very old and did not slide very easily, the showers were extremely slippery, my recommendations would be to have some sort of non skid put in, the downstairs bathroom, you had to step down when entering and then step up onto where the toilet was with inches to spare, 3 people fell, this property is definitely in need of tlc,. The beds and bedding could be updated, the living room couch and chairs definitely need to be replaced, you would sink to the frames when sitting in it. Overall would I stay there again? Probably, this property just needs some attention

Located in a nice neighborhood. The pool and hot tub were a big hit for us. The pool is missing a few tiles but works amazingly. The hot tub is spectacular. The house is as advertised, however, could use a bit of TLC and a deep clean on the fans, vents, and doors. The host is AMAZING. Overall we enjoy our stay just wish it had been warmer temps.

Nice

This house was very spacious and open. The pool was always refreshing and fishing off the canal was fun. The location of the house is perfect. Very close to stores, restaurants, etc. In a very quiet neighborhood next to the airport. Great vacation home.

The property was amazing with everything you'd ever need and Gail is the best! Will definitely come back!

Great property for the price. Hard to find a better deal for a 5 bedroom home with actual real beds and not funtons or bunk beds. Host was instantly responsive.

Beautiful house! Very clean and close to everything!! We had a fabulous time!!

Overall great home close to several restaurants,publix and winn dixie. Host was amazing and answered any questions we had promptly. Will definitely stay again.

we enjoyed the house - so easy and accessible - the pool was a great way to cool down after being on the boat - location was perfect -

Plenty of space and great communication!

My family (myself, 2 daughters, 1 son-in-law, 4 granddaughter) spent 2 weeks here. We really enjoyed it. The owners can easily improve it even more by addressing the few negatives below. Positive: Property manager was very responsive and addressed every question/concern immediately. Best Equipped/supplied rental I've been to (and I've been to a LOT). Kitchen fully updated, very nice. Property was in an excellent location between Key Largo and Key West. Day trips were easy. We're an on-the-go family and were out every day except one (a rest day). State parks are also close. Location in neighborhood was very nice, peaceful. Son-in-law had a blast fishing from the deck in the canal. Teen girls (4 of them 13 to 16) took over the lower level and loved the privacy (so did we!). Loved the ice machine on top deck! Negatives: Owners controlled the upstairs air remotely and had programmed the temp to go up at set intervals. I complained to the property owner as we were getting up several times a night sweating. She conveyed it to the owners. It improved for a few days but was back after that even worse. We'd set the temp at 70 (it definitely didn't reach that temp in the bedrooms, but was much warmer), and start feeling warm 30 minutes later and it'd be back to 76 . Night times were the most frustrating as we'd wake up sweating and have to go turn it down again. Note: The lower level was window air and as long as the girls kept the blinds drawn, it was very nice downstairs. General Complaint: A washing machine that I tried to use then realized it wasn't plugged in and wouldn't work when I plugged it in. There was also a working washer/dryer. There was a TV on the upstairs deck and a TV above the pool under the deck. We were happy about movie night by the pool. But neither TV worked. They were not advertised. Get rid of non-working appliances. The 3rd bedroom upstairs: * It was hot. The Property Manager supplied a fan and it helped, but it was noticeably warmer than the other bedrooms. * The bed frame in the bedroom broke 2 times. I do have pictures of the original as well as the repairs. It had obviously broken multiple times before as it had old McGiver-type repairs with pieces of wood bracing it, etc. * The mattress was old, very old. It was the type with the bare springs covered with material. They don't even make that type anymore. It was horribly uncomfortable. * The entire bed/bedframe needs to be replaced.
