Wonderful condo!

We loved the condo! We didn’t use the “dip pool” but very much enjoyed the great patio. The condo is conveniently located to everything in the keys, was very clean and a lovely, quiet retreat.

Nightmare

Where to start. Furniture very worn-out couch no padding, sink down no seating area even for 4 must use kitchen chairs, kitchen table stained dirty, pots very old would not use, kitchen towels are rags, stairs short and steep, carpet is very dirty, air conditioner strange blasts on or off no in-between. Small bedroom upstairs no place for belongings, wash/dryer in closet other closet sheets, shower horrific, 1 lounge chair outside very old, toaster very old doesn't toast both sides, nothing good except the location.

Liked: Cleanliness

A bit disappointing

Very clean, beds in the two bedrooms were comfortable, adequate kitchen supplies, the sofa bed (which was supposed to sleep two of the six guests) was very uncomfortable. Online ad said there was cable but the unit did not have it and we were not able to connect our streaming service. The clothes washing machine was slow and seemed to stall on the rinse cycle.

We had a great visit here! We were attending a conference at Hawks Cay and the VRBO was super convenient. Very clean, plenty of space for our group of 3, and the patio out back was great for relaxing.

Duck Key

We loved our stay at Key Lime Cottage the location was perfect, right in the middle of the keys so we could explore the area. We also appreciated the quiet safe, family, friendly neighborhood. The house was very clean and well appointed with everything you need. We loved sitting on the patio at night overlooking the water and the boats. Although the home provided us with the beach umbrella, I thought they could have provided some beach chairs and a small cooler. We wound up buying a cooler other than that. It was a perfect stay

Lovely townhouse

This worked out well for us, location wise, since we were coming from Key Largo and visiting Key West the next day. It was in the middle. The place is very comfortable and accommodated two couples perfectly. The view from the living area is pretty, as you are looking at the water in the canal.

Recommendations

We had an excellent stay! Would have preferred a hot tub versus the cooling pool. And would recommend handrails for the shower/tub. We will definitely use again if we come back to the Keys!
