Exactly as described

The house was as described and in a very convenient location. We were told to leave the home at 80 degrees and this explains why it took so long to make it comfortably cool the first day. One thing that could be improved would be to provide more beach chairs and not only low sand chairs—these are difficult for elderly people to use. It would have been nice to have a beach umbrella for some protection from the sun. We bought one and left it at the house—so you’re welcome for that!

Fun in Florida

Let's start with the positive. This is a great location, so easy to get to and close to grocery and restaurants. I enjoyed the walking/bike path and walked every morning down to Sombrero Beach which is lovely. Lot's of kids though. We really enjoyed having the pool and the dock on the canal. Although, the resident to the right as you face the canal has some very loud grandchildren. I'm talking about screaming and fighting for a full hour before an adult stepped in. Adults were present just not involved. Lastly, the accommodations were roomy for 6 adults. Now the negative........this place is really dirty. We weren't completely shocked since we had read the negative reviews concerning cleanliness. When we checked in I received a text asking about cleanliness and I gave a rating much higher than I should have. Toilets were clean and sinks were clean. The furniture inside and out was really dirty. Kitchen cabinets had crumbs and food inside. Baseboards were gross with dust bunnies and hair along with vents and fan covers. I think the cleaning company just sweeps whatever is on the floor under the furniture because if you get down on the floor and look it's pretty disgusting. One of the couples had to wash their blankets because they were stained and not clean. I slept in the Master Bedroom and immediately noticed that the bed did not have a mattress cover/pad on it. I checked the other beds and they all had covers. This seemed odd to me. After a few nights I felt like I was being eaten alive by bugs. Of course, I expected bugs outside but not inside. I probably had 50 bug bites. I began to look around the bed and the nightstand and noticed teeny tiny little bugs crawling everywhere. I have video. So, I decided to strip the bed and wash everything. We killed the bugs we could see and sprayed along baseboards. When I moved the nightstand I saw that there was food under it that the bugs were attracted to. Now for the worst part. When I stripped the bed I saw a relatively large diarrhea stain on the mattress. This was quite distressing to me. I decided to call the number for management that was left on the refrigerator. All I wanted was a mattress cover. I spoke with a very nice lady, her name is Sandra. She agreed that this was a valid request and told me that someone would bring one out and took my phone number so that I could be contacted before they entered the rental. No one ever came or tried to contact me.

Marathon Vacation

I was concerned about the readiness for our arrival after some negative reviews. However, the house was very clean and everything in order. For the most part we had 4 adults and one child staying. We had the remainder of the family join us for the last two days (2 adults, 2 kids). Everything was perfect. I would recommend a list of areas of interest to put on the refrigerator or a notebook, such as the boat launch, area restaurants, the fishery, 7 mile bridge, etc.

Not the best

Texted rental company to be sure key code for front door was changed. Answer was- that codes are generally changed. This is a yes or no answer which they could not provide. There is no secondary lock on the door. We ended up sleeping with the bedroom door closed and locked every night. Not very comforting when you just need a pin key to open. House is not professionally cleaned or sanitized. The sink drains were dirty and stinky. Most surfaces covered in dust, cobwebs, dustwebs, and dirt. Base boards and barstool wall are dirty and have food particles stuck to them. Cabinets had crumbs, washer had hair ball stuck in drum sticking out, and upstairs patio had pooled water with mold under table. We were able to sweep off the water and pour bleach over patio to scrub. Couch cushions dirty as well. The bugs! There were sugar ants everywhere. Cabinets, outside and on top of fridge, floor, walls, crawling on you while sitting on the couch. Large fire ants in master bedroom and bath. We went to the store and bought ant/roach spray to do all cabinets and baseboards. The a/c went out. The rental company gave out key code to the door to HVAC Company. A/C guys just walked into the house while I was sitting at my computer. The house is on a street with 30 or more rentals and it gets loud. The bikes are broken down & one has a hole in the tire. The grill is rusted out and has holes in the bottom. Safety and cleanliness is not a priority for this company. Very alarming.

Nice condo on canal but lacking many of the small necessities

The house was very nice but lacked a dryer, which I believe impacted the lack of dish towels, hand towels, etc. that are normally washed and dried at condo. We had to buy our own towels etc., not acceptable when you consider the price we paid for this condo! A dryer was finally delivered the last day of stay.

Sombrero Beach

We very much enjoyed our stay near Sombrero Beach - the BEST beach in the Keys! Home is a 20 min walk to beach and very convenient to Publix plaza. The property is very spacious and has dock access to canal. Home could use more kitchen items to help with cooking. Also, cleaning could have been better prior to us moving in for the week. Overall, would recommend this property given great location and above average space and quality.
