Review Submitted: November 16, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
The exterior of the house was as described & shown. Inside, cleanliness & comfort were issues: the shower curtain liner in the tiny bath was covered in mold, the very uncomfortable and small sofa in the living room was so soiled that we wouldn't sit on it unless we threw a blanket over it first. The beds had all seen better days & were sagging & not comfy-they need to be replaced. The clothes dryer burned our clothes, even on a low setting. No complaints about the neighborhood-it was mixed as most Keys neighborhoods are and we didn't really spend much time at the house - except to sleep. Pam is very helpful & answered all our questions prior to arrival in a prompt, professional and courteous manner. Rick, the major domo, was really nice and very helpful. The private island looked much better as pictured than reality proved it to be-the interiors of the structures were dirty & smelled, the kayaks at the island were dirty & smelly so we didn't use them. The waters in this area are filled with sea grass-you have to go further South to get crystal clear water for swimming & snorkeling. However, having the little boat was nice because we could cruise around, throw out the dive flag and snorkel just about anywhere. Restaurant selection is not the best & cuisine was limited in this area. There is a little Italian place within walking distance that was good. Otherwise, be prepared to eat typical dressed up, same ol' fast food- like burgers, shrimp, etc..... or cook for yourself. We had good weather the entire stay & enjoyed travelling down the coast & going in to Key West. Strike Zone Charters in BPK gave us some very good snorkeling. Bahia Honda beach turned out to be our favorite place. We spent many of our days there swimming, snorkeling & having picnics. The water and area there are beautiful-it was so relaxing. You must have a car to get around. We weren't expecting to-die-for luxury on this trip, but this cute little house could really use a thorough cleaning & updated furniture for guest comfort.
Owner's Response: Update: Since June 08, our ongoing regular maintenance continued to be preformed and in addition, the sofa in the living has been replaced, the home's interior and exterior has been painted, and mattresses have be addressed. The cottage is a rustic structure on the island and we strive to keep it clean and cheerful!

Jeanne,
we had the most wonderful time in the keys. The island was great, we spent most of the time there, so peaceful. Snorkling was very good, we even saw a manatee swim under the dock, and four dolphins came up to the dock another day. Stingrays circled the island every day, they were very colorful.
We will definetly come back again.
