The home was just nicely renovated and super clean and spacious. The pictures really didn't do it justice. The location is perfect for shopping, eating out and exploring. You definitely won't get bored. The other houses are also beautiful and really impressive. Joel was the best host you could hope for and a wealth of knowledge. You couldn't ask for better neighbors in this close-knit neighborhood. They were a perfect resource for things such as where to eat, visit and great fishing spots. If fishing and boating are your thing you definitely won't be disappointed. Your only a few minutes to the open ocean out the nice deep water canal. Once out, you have 2 keys right out side the canal with great swimming at sand bars. A few miles out your surrounded by beautiful clear blue water, patch reefs and conch reef. We saw alot of different species of fish, sea turtles and dolphins. The fishing was great for grouper, snapper, barracuda, trigger fish and even shark. Swimming in the canal was fun and Manatees were a common sight in the canal, really cool.
The area is said to have the best fishing, snorkeling and diving in the keys. The next key south of Tavernier is islamorada the fishing capital of the US. Robbies is awesome with cool shops, good food, Tarpon feeding, jet ski rentals, fishing, diving, snorkeling and sandbar charters. Miami an hour away and key west 2 hrs. I really could go on forever with this review and won't hesitate to book again in the future.
