House was clean and functional. Location is great for water access and sunset viewing. Neighborhood people were friendly.
The location of the property was convienent to shopping, and restaurants. Great little park across Route 1 was perfect for snorkling or outdoor lunch, with access to clean bathrooms. Also the local Outdoor Market on Saturdays & Sundays was nice with local fresh fruits & vegetables and stuff..
Be sure to bring your bicycles or kayaks as there are none. Getting around on our eBikes was great.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The split floor plan is particularly nice with large master BR and bath. Kitchen/great room great for gathering. Docking boat was a breeze.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Arnoldâs place. This is the second time we have stayed at one of Arnoldâs home. Great location and great neighborhood. Arnold and Al are very responsive.
This was an absolutely beautiful home in a perfect location. Very clean and had everything you could think of that you would need. We have a 24ft boat and a 28ft boat and they both fit nicely against the dock! Owners were very nice and made check in very easy. I would absolutely stay in this house again!!
Great house/central location to Key West, but out of the hustle of downtown
House is very nice & updated. Location was perfect central location to Key West, but far enough away from the hustle of the city/tourist. Quiet suburban neighborhood in close proximity to grocery & other stores, restaurants & some other key destinations points. The house was clean and had most of what you would need for a lengthy stay. The outdoor deck area was nice with ample seating for time spent outdoors. We were very fortunate to see some manatees who had come up the canal and get some great videos/pics, so be on the look out for them as you are sitting on the deck or when navigating the canal! The only negative was the sparse furnishings in the living area (considering the number of guests the house accommodates) with only one small couch & two small chairs. The house could have used a few more linens as well (towels/washcloths, blankets/sheets) so we had to wash daily to keep the supply. Overall, I would give the house a 4 out of 5 star rating and would return for another stay! Be sure to check out the large Farmers Market nearby on Saturday & Sundays! Great stuff!
My wife and I were at this property for the month of March with our son, daughter in law, and 12 year old grandson joining us for week of Mardi Gras. Accommodations very new, clean, and spacious. Great location with plenty to do. Lots of Key deer, saw manatee in canal. We swam and kyuacked in canal. Wonderful memories!
Beautiful new home. Convenient location. Large enough dock for multiple boats if needed on a clean canal. Enjoyed seeing the Key deer in the neighborhood. If you are lucky enough to stay here you must visit Looe Key!
We loved the house. The dock could use some cleats to make tying up the boat easier. Overall, a very good impression. We would be interested in renting again next Feb.
The property is brand new and in an excellent location for going fishing, diving, and snorkeling. We put our boat in at Little Torch Key public ramp and kept it in the canal behind the house. We love fishing and target Yellowtail Snapper. There are excellent fishing locations within 3-5 miles into the Atlantic, about a 20-30 minute boat ride. Looekey is also only 3.5 miles away. We were fortunate to see three Warsaw Grouper under our boat while snorkeling at Looekey.
The is also a public beach and snorkeling are that we went to several times called Bahia Honda State Park. Snorkeling is best on the Atlantic side and the beach area is best on the gulf side.
The house has very comfortable queen beds as well as a pullout sofa bed. The kitchen is very roomy and provides an easy cooking location conected to the living and dining as one great room.
Remember to pack lots of sunscreen and Off bug repellent.
Our children and grandson enjoyed seeing the Key Deer. I was very surprised to see them after returning from grocery shopping one evening. They followed me around the car looking for hand outs. You arenât supposed to feed them but they knew where the food was and showed up the day before garbage day.
We are already planning a trip for next year. Canât wait!!! This month went by too fast. We were truly blessed to find this lovely location and have the opportunity to share it with our family.
We are Arnold and Alfred , the brothers that own and manage our wonderful house on Big Pine Key. We have always loved spending time here in Paradise and enjoy knowing that are guests are also having a fabulous and memorable vacation getaway!
We are here in Paradise with the best boating and fishing in the world. With restaurants , supermarkets , bike trails, kayaking , Key West and so much more. What an incredible vacation spot to make fun and exciting memories.
