Nice location and house but it was unclean and infested with animals.
When we arrived we realized the dishes and silverware were not cleaned very well at all. Most still had food on them. The silverware drawer had dirt and what seemed like spilled juice all over it. Which is really bad when things are supposed to be extra clean for COVID. We had to rewash everything which is the last thing we wanted to do upon arrival. The beach had some garbage on it as well like an old pair of flip flops and like food wrappers. The upstairs was really clean but the ground floor had worms all over the place. They were on the floor and the walls and there was a lot of them! We kept stepping on them and having to sweep them away. It was not fun having to watch where we stepped all the time. Had a hard time sleeping knowing some might end up in bed with us. It’s especially not fun when you have kids, the kids had to sleep upstairs. The ground floor bathroom also had a flying ant infestation. There were also rats that were eating out of the outside garbage cans and making a mess. We found a dead one outside of the garage. Luckily none came inside. I would not recommend this house to anyone who has kids with all the infestations going on. The ground floor’s air conditioning didn’t work very well at all. The bedroom with the two twin beds was always really hot and uncomfortable. Another reason the kids had to sleep upstairs. Luckily we didn’t need to use all the beds. Check in was a pain. We had to go all the way down to the south bottom of the key to get the keys out of a lockbox. It is a good 10-20 minutes out of the way unless you’re coming from the bottom of Florida which is unlikely. Overall cool house but we didn’t stay there really at all during the day because of all the bugs inside, rats outside, and the poor air conditioning. We would’ve liked to invite family over but with all the issues we couldn’t. They really need to get an exterminator in there. We ended up leaving on our last night there to stay at a hotel so someone didn’t have to sleep downstairs with all the worms for once.
