There is so much wrong with this I do not know where to begin.the description of the property has not been updated in a very long time.1. The pool spa does not work.2 the pool is to cold to swim in.3. The brand new out door kitchen was not brand new ,it was dirty grease trap was full dripped onto ground4 there is a garage on the premise which I was not aware of that had 3 people living them that were always around and their trucks were parked in the driveway 5 grill on the second deck was filthy.6. All the closets filled with junk nowhere to hang clothes7 draws all over house fill\ed with junk8 in upstairs kitchen some draws filled with pot and pan lids other draws filled with dirty pots and pans. No sets of either.9 Outside furniture was well used some to the point where you would not want to sit in them.10 There was a boat dock not in good shape.11 Lots of clutter all around the property. When walking downstairs from second floor you could see a pile of junk on the bottom floor. Not something I would want to see in an expensive rental.12 about those people living over the garage,one of them accused us of doing something to a package of his,come to find out he wasn’t even supposed to be living there.13 owners were around too much .I think they use the place tom store stuff they get at flea markets and garage sales.14 I can’t believe the reviews of some of the people who rented here .Whaty were they seeing ?

Large Group
Great property for large group. All the things you would want for a large group. The owner was fantastic and had great information and exceeded all of our expectations. Just a note of caution is sometimes in July there can be a lot of mosquitos and seaweed in the keys. This has nothing to do with property or owner just something we did not know.

Great house for a large family vacation!
Would highly recommend this home to any large family. We have 5 children some with spouses and grandchildren on our vacation and it was the perfect fit! Plenty of room for everyone and lots of privacy. The pool and pool table were the biggest hits! We did most of our cooking on the outside commercial griddle. We also loved having 3 refrigerators. Hope to come back next year!

Shark house review
The house was clean and the beds very comfortable! Loved the layout and the house was just so inviting with its colorful walls inside and out.It was so convenient each bedroom having its own bathroom. The space was very big that we were able to spread out and not be all crowded together. It was so nice having all the baby equipment available as we had our 8 month old grand. It also helped having three refrigerators to accommodate 11 people. We spent a lot of time in the pool. It was nice having a dock and being able to walk to the rented boat. We played air hockey, foose ball, and pool. We even put together 3 1000 piece puzzles that were at the house. We had a very enjoyable family vacation. Liz and Captain Bob were the best hosts! We had a couple of small issues that they immediately attended to. Liz had sent information beforehand on things to bring and places to see as well as places to eat which was so helpful! Enjoyed our trip immensely!

The house was great. We had age ranges from 13 to 80. Good for the whole family. It was very short walk (5 Minutes) to Sombrero Beach.

This house had everything you could have wanted. The owners obviously take great pride in this property and do everything they can to make you feel at home. Captain Bob even helped us make pizzas in the pizza oven. Liz, the manager, was as helpful as can be whenever we had a question.

Beautiful house & great communication with hosts
We greatly enjoyed our stay at this property. There was plenty of space for 9 of us, open floor plans and king beds. The pool area was absolutely amazing! We had a couple small issues, but the property owners were absolutely phenomenal with timely communication and resolution of everything. They stayed above the garage on the property and were so quick to address any of our needs. We would highly recommend this property and any rentals with Liz and Captain Bob!
