    THE PROPERTY WAS VERY BEAUTIFUL WILL STAY AGAIN AT THIS LOCATION
    Excellent location very quiet and clean great value
    Cindy and Tony have created a very charming getaway for anyone needing a few days away just to relax. Tastefully decorated with plenty of extra little touches to make you feel at home. Very close to the beach with several fine dining options just to the south.
    We had a wonderful time. Enjoyed watching the turtle working it’s way across the yard. The condo was everything we expected.
    Fantastic condo, beautifully decorated and furnished. Spotlessly clean. Great location, short walk to lovely beach. Had the pleasure of meeting Cindy who couldn’t have done anymore to make our stay so memorable.

    Unfortunately, the property had issues before we arrived. The property was very nice and had a great view. After a one night stay, we had to relocate and it wasn’t the same after that. We went on to enjoy our vacation but we were not where we wanted to be.
    Nice. Accurate description and pictures
    It was lovely – the only snafu is the gate code to get in at the front was not correct but Property Manager quickly resolved.
    Property was excellent. Light bulbs need to be replaced in dining and living room. It would be great if there was at least a double bed in as second guest room but overall we loved property
    This unit is as nice as the pictures! Beautifully decorated and wonderful views. We also appreciated just how clean everything was. Would stay here again!

    Spectacular property will be back. Would suggest some upgrades to outdoor space to enhance what is an amazing location. Interior is perfect, quality and cleanliness second to none. Owner exceptionally responsive very accommodating. Rebooking for next year
    This property is perfectly located. It’s right near the beach and all of the attractions and restaurants. The property itself is very very well maintained. It’s exactly like described online and even more beautiful in person. The host was very assessable and very easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend this property.
    The property was just wonderful! It was super clean and beautifully decorated! Being right on the water was so nice especially for early risers to sit outside and drink their coffee. The host left a few snacks and drinks including wine for us. We can’t wait to stay again!
    We had a perfect stay. Recommend property. Kitchen is a little less stocked than most rentals.
    We really enjoyed our stay at your place. Everything was clean, the location is perfect, host was very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend and wish we could’ve stayed longer as it was just perfect.

    The rental was awesome filled with all the amenities you need and then some left by previous renters. The property manager was easy to contact and replied quickly to any concerns. The only thing that was bothersome was sitting in the outside balcony bothered by the smell of other renters smoking pot. That was not pleasant.
    The condo is huge! Pictures don’t do it justice. It was perfect for my family of 4. You are within walking distance to the beach and everything else you need. We will be staying here again!
    Outstanding Condo. Very clean and comfortable. Seeing the sunrise each morning made it more spectacular. Sophia was great with all the details of checking in and was available at any time. There area was perfect…not too crowded and within walking distance to many restaurants and the beach of course. Will definitely be booking again!!!!
    Our property faced the harbor and was very beautiful. The 8th floor balcony is optimal for morning sunrises with coffee. The pool and spa were clean and conveniently located. The kids enjoyed using them daily. Property staff was extremely helpfull and communicative.
    We had a great stay!! The condo was perfect. Beautiful place, perfect location, amazing views! We would highly recommend staying here!

    One of the nicest units we have rented at Oceania
    This condo was wonderful! So spacious, clean and well decorated. Spectacular views from the large balcony. Pool was clean and never crowded. Loved the additional Ice maker in the condo. If we come back to Destin anytime in the future we would definitely stay here again!
    This property was everything it advertises plus so much more! It was truly a home away from home but with a better view 😉
    We really liked the condo and the beach how it wasn’t crowded. The condo was cleaned well which is sometimes hard to come by. Pam always responded when we had a question. The pool could’ve used a vacuum as we never saw anyone vacuum it. It was nice to have a small laundry room and an icemaker also. I hope we get to stay here next year but we looked at the prices and they have gone up quite a but so I dont know for sure yet.
    Pam is kind and easy to work with. Destin is beautiful and the private beach was so nice.Appreciated chairs and umbrella. Boshamps worth the wait and Boardwalk Cafe was our favorite.

    Lack of cable TV, need to pay extra for room service and toiletries, run down,
    Resort is amazing. Room needs to be updated majorly. Balcony was extremely dirty. Toilet was dirty. Water pressure is so low, showering and bathing was annoying. However this resort is incredible.
    The room is fine. It does have older carpet, curtains, and furniture, but we don’t care about the decor. The resort itself was very nice and the view from the (hotel like) room was beautiful. The only complaint we have is the AC didn’t seem to be able to keep the room cool enough with the heat and humidity.
    The resort is gorgeous, all the staff were incredible. The host was very communicative and gracious. The amenities were fabulous, I highly recommend the restaurant, coffee shop, beach view, pool, and lazy river. Thanks so much for the incredible experience!
    Great value for the location. The employees were extremely nice and accommodating.

    Most importantly I wanted to thank and commend Paola for her attentiveness as the property manager. Check is was a breeze and we texted her a few times with questions. She was ALWAYS responsive, within minutes of our inquiries. The Conch house has a lot of character and a good deal of room out back to relax in the sun or shade. There is an outdoor shower, which was great as well. A/C was quite ample and easy to control in all rooms. I have NO complaints and would definitely work with Paola again! Thank you for being awesome!!!
    Perfect location. Near all the Old Town action, but in a very quiet residential neighborhood. Cottage is clean, and in perfect order. Decor is wonderful. Backyard is great.
    We absolutely loved our stay at 730 Passover! The house is adorable, a very creative floor plan with lots of storage, the perfect front porch, a secluded back deck, and even an outdoor shower! Paola was incredibly responsive and the best property manager we’ve ever had in KW! By far the best! As the pandemic was ongoing during our visit, we ate at home much of the time and found the kitchen to be somewhat lacking with no serving dishes, only a few storage containers, a can opener that didn’t work, and sadly, no grill. We made do with what we had or could find locally, but would have loved a better equipped kitchen, especially for entertaining. The wine fridge was a big bonus! Otherwise, the house met all of our needs and we enjoyed having the doors open and allowing the breeze to flow through the house. The a/c was quiet and more than sufficient (way better than window units!). The bed linens and towels were very nice and plentiful. The bed was comfortable and the home’s decor was welcoming, bright and uncluttered. I even had the perfect little workspace in the kitchen. The washer and dryer are new and efficient. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks so much for a great stay!
    Very nice place, great location! Agent helpful and easy to work with!
    I had the pleasure to stay in this cute conch house last summer. Despite the heat outside, the air conditioning inside was exceptional. It is a very quiet location (the key west historical cemetery is across the street). The location is excellent and only a few blocks from the excitement of Duval and numerous restaurants. We walked everywhere. No car is necessary. I returned this year to find wonderful improvements. Last year is was a bit dated but still nice. This year, it has been professionally painted and redecorated with all new furniture. There is a secluded back deck for relaxing. The outdoor shower on the back deck is a very refreshing way to wake up in the morning. Yes there is a shower curtain if you were wondering. I plan to come back every summer if possible. It was very relaxing when desired and close to the action when desired.

    We booked a nice one level unit and was called the next morning to say it had been double booked. The manager called the next morning to let me know what happened and said he had a 2 bedroom 2 bath unit upgrade at no additional charge. Since I was at work, I didn’t research the unit before agreeing. Huge mistake!My poor 6ft 3 1/2 foot husband couldn’t even stand in the upstairs half bath! Yes, you read correctly, no shower near the bedroom. You had to go down a spiral staircase for that. Again, my poor husband. I feel that the agent and lisiting should discourage anyone over 6ft to not book the Sunset Sweet. I emailed the manager and asked to be moved. Unfortunately, no other units available. We were miserable.Property in great location, though.
    Wow! What a GREAT Location. We loved the accommodations and location at McCartney’s Manor. Check in was very easy, but as we were rolling luggage, it would have been easier if transportation via Golf Cart, etc was provided. It was a bit of a walk (with luggage) to get from check in to McCartney’s Manor. Yes, we could have summoned an Uber, but it looked a lot closer on the map! The unit was very clean and well appointed. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was small but not a problem. We used the hot tub on the deck nightly and enjoyed the shared pool as well. I would highly recommend this “Abbey Road” location to anyone!
    The property was perfectly maintained and was the pool was wonderful. And you cant argue with a private deck and hot tub . It was a 3 minute walk to Duval and a 20 minutes to Mallory square on the gulf. The staff was so helpful and kind.
    This was a great vacation rental. The separate cottages give people in a group their own space, but there are still places to congregate and celebrate to have fun together as a group. Everything was very cleanly and well kept. Cute key west getaway spot!
    I booked the 5 bedroom 4 cottages Abbey Road property for friends and family attending my son’s Key West wedding. Location near Duvall street made it tourist friendly and everyone liked their bedrooms/cottages and the thoughtful amenities that made the property so comfortable. The backyard oasis with the 8 person hot tub and plenty of patio furniture became the gathering place each evening and also was the brunch location the morning after the wedding party. The group also enjoyed access to the nearby pool. The parking challenge of no assigned spots at this property was alieviated for some of our party (car with handicapped tags needing close access) when we asked for help from the service staff. Others had difficulty finding nearby parking space. Everyone associated with this property was most helpful and went out of their way to make this a memorable and fun weekend.

    Enjoyed our stay and the opportunity to decompress. Lovely breeze day and night.
    The property is exactly as we had hoped, in fact, it exceeded our expectations. The ocean was warm and clear, we saw sea turtles, manatees and nurse sharks right from the dock. The swimming was excellent, although the current can be strong especially when the tide is in but it’s shallow enough to still get in the water when it’s really moving. Besides the neighbours that were connected to us, we hardly saw another soul. The duplex is set up so that each party has their own amenities, huts and BBQ so even though you’re connected to another group, it doesn’t feel that way. The house itself was a cute beach house with fun beachy decor. We really lucked out renting this place and would love to come back in the future.
    We loved this little “hole in the wall” duplex. It’s older and well loved but clean and the view and location is perfect. Not to mention a private BEACH, which is hard to find in the Keys. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
    Great Hidden gem. Our family loved it And will be back again someday
    This place ruined most other options. Just walking out into the sand was perfect. Really excellent overall. Don’t hesitate. Book.

    Clean and convenient to Disney. The kids really loved the themed rooms. This is a great place to stay
    We really enjoyed our stay at this townhouse. Very clean and well maintained. It is very close to all the major attractions. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks !
    We were thrilled with the Disney theme throughout all the rooms and the quality of furniture, beds, and high end finishes. The kids absolutely loved going from room room and pretending to be “in the movies!” An added bonus was having Disney plus to watch movies during down time. Would recommend this property to families!
    Great home. Very clean
    This property is as advertised (or better). You are a short drive to the Disney parks or to Wal Mart and other places for supplies. We had an issue with the door lock. However, the owner was very responsive, even though it was later at night when we contacted him about the issue. I would highly recommend staying at this property and would not hesitate to stay here again.

    It was difficult from the beginning. I was unable to open the door and the instructions given were inaccurate. The house was poorly cleaned and we were unable to use the pool because it was dirty. We founded sharp objects in the carpet so we’re unable to let my baby crawl around the house. Animals come to the trash can outside every night and take all the food out so be careful. I contacted Vrbo and the owner and no response on getting a partial refund since we didn’t get to use the pool. Vrbo responded saying they are only the advertisement company and can’t do anything. Do yourself a favor and stay in a hotel.
    This house was a perfect place for my big family. The kids had a blast and really enjoyed their stay here! There’s plenty of rooms for everyome to sleep in comfortably and different activities within the home to be entertained with. There is even a little waterpark and gym in the clubhouse of this resort! I would stay here again in a heartbeat!
    Felipe is an absolute amazing host! He went over and beyond to ensure that we had everything that we needed and checked on us to make sure that we were fine. The home was clean and very spacious. I highly recommend to stay at homes hosted by Felipe.
    The host made the experience smooth and easy. The communication was always there

    Everything went very smoothly
    Family of 4 had a great time, great house and location.
    Our family of 10 stayed March 19-24. Upon arrival, parking was a breeze for our 3 vehicles. Check-in was easy using a code given prior to arrival. The house was quaint yet spacious enough for our large family. Bedrooms were separate from the living space…great given our group size! The location was great, just a short walk to the beach! The view from the top balcony was stunning! Mgmt was responsive to emails & offered to take phone calls for any questions about excursions. With that said, we read the reviews prior to booking & were under the impression that the cottage was clean, well kept & stocked with basic necessities. Our experience was different. There was sand on the floor, in beds & on furniture. Our feet were black after walking barefoot in the house. A bunk bed mattress had a large area covered in something resembling blood or vomit. We brought this to the attention of mgmt. She said there was a new cleaning crew. There was not enough bedding for each bed. We were short sheets. We messaged mgmt & she brought sheets the next day. In the meantime, we washed blankets to have enough clean bedding for each bed. Mgmt said the new cleaning crew must have overlooked that each bed should be supplied with full sets of bedding. The listing said linens were provided. 10 bath towels, 3 hand towels & 3 washcloths were provided. No kitchen linens were provided. We ended up buying extra linens at Wal-Mart. The listing said there were ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Only one bedroom had one. The listing said toilet paper was provided. A total of 6 rolls of toilet paper were provided for 10 people sharing 3 bathrooms for 6 days. There were no paper towels & only one garbage bag was provided. We brought this to mgmt’s attention, & she said they only provide a starter supply, so we purchased toilet paper, paper towels & garbage bags. The listing said pantry items were provided. There was only salt & pepper. Amenities list water sports gear. We asked what was included prior to coming & were told fishing poles, sand toys & maybe a boogie board or 2. There were 3 fishing poles (no sand toys or boards). Overall, our stay was super nice & we had a fantastic time exploring PCB! However, there were many inconveniences. The listing was inaccurate. The house was not clean even though our cost included a $250 cleaning fee. It was disappointing to have to clean upon arrival, do laundry prior to sleeping and run to the store for basic supplies.
    We absolutely loved our stay. The location is great and with perfect access to the beach. The house is adorable. The kids really enjoyed going on top of the observation deck to hang out, look out onto the beach and just chill. The front porch swing is a nice touch. We will definitely be back.
    Unbelievable property! This rental location and home is so great that I texted the owners and offered to buy the property. The house is DIRECTLY on the water. Home has a gate directly onto the public access ramp (Access 33). Home could sleep 13 comfortably, though we only had 7 people. Home equipped with everything you need (and the rental agreement tells you exactly what they don’t provide) Check in was a breeze. Check out was the EASIEST of any VRBO property. Some properties make you strip the beds and start the laundry. This property was not bogged down with “rules”. Simple. Easy. Driveway easily fit our two ginormous SUVS. Neighborhood is quiet. Neighbors/locals are soooo friendly. We met wonderful people. Beach is clean. Sand is white and soft enough to walk barefoot (shells a plenty at the waters edge!)Something I will mention because it might bother some, but it was one of my FAVORITE ASPECTS… the house is old. The ceilings are low. The doors are wonky. But it adds to the beach-y kitschy vibe. I loved every single thing about this house! This home is S P A C I O U S !!! It’s a sprawling ranch home with lots and lots of privacy for everyone!STRONGLY RECOMMEND!!!

    This is a beautiful beach home that did not disappoint!! It has a wonderful open floor plan with plenty of room for family gatherings. We really enjoyed the pool, the large tv’s and especially the fire pit area. We had a fire and s’mores several nights. We only had a little problem with the pool heater but the management company was very responsive and got it fixed pronto. We will be back!!!
    Property well maintained. Bike or walk to beach.
    We came to PCB for a softball tournament and this house was the perfect place to unwind after a day at the ballpark. The outdoor living space can not be beat!
    This house was PERFECT for our group of 6!! The location was perfect from the beach! We rented a golf cart to go to the beach and places close by! All the amenities that came with the house were a BIG PLUS especially the kitchen and beach stuff to use!!! Enjoyed the bikes and pool!!
    This house was amazing! Our kids really enjoyed having a pool to themselves and not having to worry about other people and it being fenced in provided all the privacy we wanted. I personally loved the bikes that were included because it was so nice to take a bike stroll around the neighborhood and shopping centers without having to drive the car every time. It isn’t right on the beach but we walked every time and it wasn’t bad at all. I do wish there would have been more then 2 trash bags, 1 roll of paper towels and 1 roll of toilet paper because with 8 people we definitely had to go to the store for those items. Also the alarm on the back doors were very annoying and went off every time you opened the door. I get it is for safety reasons but it’s hard to keep that from going off with kids in and out. I also wish we would have known there were pool toys and beach wagons/toys because we would have packed lighter on those items. Overall though it was an amazing experience and we couldn’t be happier.

    Quiet Canal Home With Private Pool$1,014/nightly avg

    Situated in a quiet neighborhood just off the beaten path from the Village and beach, this Siesta Key vacation rental can be found on the corner of two canals. It offers direct access to the Gulf, which is nice since it comes with a tandem kayak for guest use. Watch boats come in and out from the pool area and keep an eye out for the osprey and great white egrets that roam the property’s lush landscape. Walk down the street to see the sun go down over the Gulf, then walk to a restaurant for dinner.

    Everything went well and enjoyed our stay immensely
    It was everything we wanted. We all felt so comfortable there. My grand kids loved the pool. My hubby and sons caught lots of fish off the bulkhead. We walked to the village every morning for coffee and evening for dinner. The location is so convenient. The bedrooms were great for the whole family and the beds were extremely comfortable. We all had a wonderful time.
    Chose this house for our yearly gathering of family (12) from around the country. While our timing put us in the heat of July, the amenities of the home, the wonderful pool and outdoor space, and a picturesque setting surrounded by canals made for an enjoyable experience. A really terrific and large kitchen, comfortable beds for all, and indoor and outdoor eating spaces all made this a terrific rental. Our host was responsive to any questions and assistance we might require. Don’t miss out…
    Really enjoyed the house. Close to the beach and nightlife. Pool was great!!
    Our experience with this property was excellent from start to finish. Property was beautiful, clean, and in a perfect location. Kids loved exploring the canal in the kayak and of course the pool was a hit. Easy drive (or longer walk) to town with shops and restaurants or the beach. We loved every minute!

    Our stay here exceeded our expectation as we were very pleased with the reservation and check-in process. Excellent communication and attention provided. Property was very comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it. We will definitely stay here again but with more days as there is so much to see in St. Augustine. Thank you so much.

    We rented out three of the four cottages for the 4th of July week. The cottages were so cute and absolutely could accommodate our group of 15! The pool was the best part to escape the summer heat!

    Highly recommend.
    This property epitomizes luxury vacation rental. It was our second stay this summer and it did not disappoint. Thank you to the owners for sharing their home and to Lisa for being the absolute best property manager. Her communication and assistance are second to none and she is the perfect compliment to the perfect home. All the best!
    Everything is kept up top notch on this house. The pictures don’t even begin to describe how nice the house and location is. The multiple master bedrooms all facing the ocean really make it a wonderful stay for multiple families. Property manager is quick to respond and great to deal with. Will likely stay again.
    My family and I loved our stay at this property and hope to be back.
    When we booked this home we thought the photos were possibly artist renderings because the property looks so perfect. Upon our arrival we realized the pictures are indeed actual photos and still didn’t completely capture the beauty of this home and property. We are so thankful the owners choose to “share” their property and cannot wait to come back. We have vacationed on that coast for over 30 years, and we have never spent more time in a vacation rental. There was never a reason to leave. Our family Instacart’ed our groceries to the house and put the amazing kitchen and summer kitchen to work. I hesitate even writing a review in hopes of keeping this property a secret, but in fairness to the owners I’d like everyone who reads this review to know that this home will exceed every expectation for family’s and friend who enjoy spending time with each other!
