The furnishings/decor are beautiful. This is one of the nicest houses we have had the pleasure to rent, everything is spotless/brand new. It was hard getting our kids ages 8 and 10 to leave the house each day for adventures. -Kristie Krueger

As a boating enthusiast, I designed Captain's Retreat for families who want it all – luxury accommodations plus authentic Keys adventures.

The spacious living area features panoramic water views through floor-to-ceiling windows, witha massive sectional where everyone can gather to share stories of the day's catches.

Outside, the private heated pool and spa create the perfect tropical oasis, surrounded by lush landscaping that provides both privacy and that quintessential Keys atmosphere.

Eric’s Place was Truly Special! From the moment we arrived, it felt like the perfect getaway for our entire family. The house was wonderfully equipped with everything we could ever need, and more. - Yanet Hernandez

    We had a great time at this property! With such a large group, it was perfect. The sectional had plenty of space for seating. Everyone had their own room. All the adults had king beds and the teenagers even had queen sized bunk beds. We really enjoyed playing pool and ping pong each day, and played several of the games on the infinity table. The outdoor area was really nice. The pool and hot tub were very relaxing especially in the evenings after a long day. The location was perfect for lots of activities in the area and it was an easy drive to Key West a couple of times during our stay. Communication with the host was quick and easy. We would highly recommend this property!

    We had the best trip! The house was awesome—perfectly located right on the water where we saw manatees right from the dock. The house was spotless and fully equipped with everything we needed. Plus, there were so many fun games for us to enjoy! Eric was a great host, very responsive, and made the whole experience easy. We cannot wait to come back!

    The home worked perfectly for our group ages 9mts to 93 years. It was clean and well stocked. Between the pool hot tub and games a good time was had by all. Nice location and the host was very responsive! Highly recommend!

    The house and property were described very well in the listing. The house is large and spacious with a great entertaining area outside. We did not rent a boat or use the canal at all. Property is located minutes from the gas station, grocery store and restaurants/Bars. Nearest beach was a short 10 minute drive, you do have to pay for parking at the beach just a heads up. We had 10 adults on the trip, property was liked by everyone and enough space for everyone to be together or have your own little area.
