We only have this one rental and do all of the cleaning ourselves. We wash the shower curtain liner prior to each rental. This way you know that it is clean in case it touches you.

The Efficiency has a private entrance from the outside and can not be entered from the main house. The Efficiency is like a cottage that is attached to the main house. The common wall between the Efficiency and the main house is your laundry and storage area ( with your snorkeling and fishing equipment). This makes the Efficiency private from the main house. The owners (husband, wife and NO children) live in the main house, but the lot is a large lot about the size of 5 normal size lots in the Keys. They do not have any pets, so you can walk about freely without being bothered by pets.

This apartment certainly exceeded our expectations. We found it to be surprisingly roomy, comfortable and well equipped for a small apartment. Although attached to the owners' house, it is completely private and the location is perfect. It has been lovingly created and decorated, was scrupulously clean and we felt very much at home.

The owners, Tom and Judy, are welcoming and charming hosts. We very much enjoyed our chats with them and found their local knowledge invaluable. Knowing our interest in wildlife, they were able to direct us to remote areas of the nearby Keys. Our only regret was that we had not planned a longer stay here as part of our Florida vacation. We could have paddled the sheltered waters in the canoe and explored the local area more thoroughly.

We would strongly recommend this efficiency to any couple wishing to explore the Lower and Middle Keys or simply to relax in a beautiful location. It will definitely be our first choice place to stay whenever we return.

This is a wonderful little unit in the Florida Keys. It is about 25 miles from Key West so accessible when you want some of the tourist activities there but far enough to provide a wonderful getaway. The unit itself was clean, nicely updated and well furnished. It was a beautiful setting right on the water. The owners, Tom and Judy are very nice and helpful. We would highly recommend this unit for a couple wanting a little getaway in the Florida Keys.

After a less than wonderful day of traveling, we arrived at Tom and Judy's and found everything to be as good, if not better, than we read about. They were so kind (LOVED the cold welcome beverages and the Happy Anniversary balloon!) and attentive. The view was amazing. The location was perfect. We were about 25 minutes from Key West - out of the commotion but certainly close enough to head down for a few hours.
The accommodations were just as promised. It was clean and well-equiped. There was nothing we needed except a little less wind. We never felt like we were being watched and we never felt unsafe. Tom taught us the proper way to open a coconut and we ate fresh bananas from the tree.
Our most favorite restaurant was The Square Grouper. We did some flyfishing one not-so-windy day with Chaos Theory Charters. Other than that, we relaxed and took in a few sights.
It was a wonderful week at a location that I would highly recommend to any couple that is looking to escape for awhile. Quiet neighborhood. Relaxed atmosphere. Definitely 5 stars!

The efficiency rental exceeded our expectations. It was recently remodeled and was well maintained and very clean. The location was ideal being within driving distance of Key West and many of the more popular state parks and local attractions, yet far enough from the "commercialized tourist" areas of Key Largo. Snorkel gear and a canoe are provided with the rental and provide an excellent opportunity to explore the surrounding area. We especially enjoyed relaxing during the evening in the Tiki Hut watching the fish and listening to the ocean breeze rustle the abundant palm trees. Tom the owner was a superb host, being very knowledagble about the area and local attractions. I would recommend the rental to anyone looking for a relaxing, real Florida Keys getaway.

Wir waren vom 11.-17.11 2012 zu Gast bei Tom und Judy und waren total begeistert. Die Ferienwohnung liegt direkt am Atlantik, so dass wir gleich nach dem Aufstehen erst einmal schwimmen gegangen sind. Das anschließende Frühstück, unter Palmen und direkt am Wasser, war ein Genuss. Häufig nutzten Tom und Judy diese Gelegenheit, sich nach unserem Befinden, unseren Wünschen und Plänen zu erkundigen und sie gaben uns wertvolle Tipps für Unternehmungen. Tom und Judy waren sehr freundliche und herzliche Gastgeber, so wie man es sich nur wünschen kann. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr liebevoll und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es fehlte an nichts und alle Dinge sind bis auf das Detail aufeinander abgestimmt. Die Wohnung befindet sich in einer sehr ruhigen und gepflegten Gegend. Wir verbrachten eine herrliche Zeit. Sollten wir noch einmal auf die Keys fahren, dann würden wir wieder sehr gerne Gäste von Tom und Judy sein.
