An exceptionally clean, quiet, well furnished condo that you can call your own for a few days, a few weeks, or even a few months. The condo has all the amenities needed, such as a full-sized refridgerator, stove, dishes, pots and pans, full bath tub/shower, air conditioning, tv, and nicely furnished. I loved the fact that I could get away from it all, but yet be within 20 minutes from downtown Miami. It was fun to head on over to South Beach and check out the night life and then be able to come back to my clean, quiet apartment, and have a great nights sleep. Another plus, there is a washer/dryer on the premises, which for me, is a godsend; since I stayed 3 weeks. Even though I didn't use it, the outdoor pool was spotless, the garden was lush, and well maintained. The manager was very congenial, prompt and helpful with any questions that I had, either regarding the condo or Key Biscayne. My favorite restaurant was Sushi Siam, a Japanese and Thai cusine within walking distance from the condo. It is in the same shopping center where the huge grocery store is. I absolutely loved the Community Center which was approx. 1 block away across the park. I worked out on weights and machines, took Yoga classes. There are also aerobics, belly dancing, beading and pottery classes, and a small cafe which serves delicious gelato. I found out too late in my trip that you can take an express boat from the middle of the bridge in Key Biscayne to Key West and it only takes 4 hours; so much faster than driving! If I could, I would go back to stay here year after year. It was the perfect getaway among lush, tropical warm white sand beaches in a peaceful location that was away from all the hubbub of the larger cities on the mainland, yet close enough to it all to be endlessly entertained if that is what's desired. I highly recommend this place to my friends and family and now, of course to you!
