Venetian Shores Escape! Heated Pool, 3BR, 70ft Dock, Dog-Friendly!

I really loved the location of this property. The issues I had with the property or the cleanliness, the lack of basic supplies in the house to maintain its cleanliness, issues with some pool furniture that was broken and has obviously been that way for quite a while. Pool maintenance being done in the middle of a weeklong rental. I wasn’t going to leave a review, but the owner of the property refused to address any of the problems along with VRBO until I disputed part of the payment with my credit card company. That’s just bad business. This house is in a great location and I would give it a five out of 10. I stay in a lot of rentals and I’ve stayed in a lot better for a lot less. It’s just not worth the amount they are renting it for. It wasn’t clean, I left one trash bag in the trashcan for an entire week of seven occupants. There were no basic bathroom supplies. The outside bar had obviously not been cleaned in a long time and there were rusted through broken pool chairs that should’ve just been removed a long time ago. We were without water for almost a day and a half and the pool maintenance company added chemicals to the pool in the middle of our stay. We filled our own propane tank. I am used to having one or two small little things happen and I have never left a bad review before. But this one had numerous things happening all at once right from the very beginning of the rental. The lack of addressing these or concern for it was the biggest disappointment.

Wonderful location

We had such a great week here! The house was spotless when we arrived and had plenty of parking for our whole group. The location couldn’t be better — just minutes from great restaurants, marinas, reefs, and of course, the famous Islamorada sandbar. We loved having the seawall deck that fit both of our boats, and the pool was the perfect way to relax after long days out on the water.Inside, the kitchen was large and well-equipped, making it easy for us to cook up delicious meals, gather together, and play games in the evenings. Everything was comfortable and well set up for groups, and we truly enjoyed our time here. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and convenient spot in the Keys!

Check in was simple and straightforward. Lovely neighborhood, terrific location. The furniture is quite dated throughout. For older family members, the rattan in the living room was uncomfortable and low to the floor. The downstairs room had a musty odor and an open box of Damp-Rid on the bookcase. The bedroom dressers downstairs also had a musty odor when you opened the drawers so we didn’t unpack. We enjoyed our stay for the most part but the house could use some care and attention.

Second stay in 3 years. Highly recommend!

Wonderful location, quaint and comfortable home. Great for boaters and families. Loved the pool and Joan was a responsive and easy to work with. Thank you Joan!

The property is central location in Islamorada, best location....The outdoor area is perfect,pool heated very enjoyable.. great neighborhood..Friendly Host JoAnn is amazing, and prompt response, a delightful person, and a wonderful host!

Accomodations met our needs.The downstairs apartment was especially nice.Tiki bar was great to entertain our friends.Would have been nice to have the ice maker working, but everything else was great.

“Heated” pool never got warm enough to get into. 6 bath wash clothes and 6 of us staying. Pots & pans were not usable. Just very disappointed versus the amount we had to pay.

Clean nice area great place

Pool in need of some TLC while we were there, JoAn jumped in to the rescue and repaired it with us not missing a swim.

As advertised
