Great location with easy access to all the ocean activities around Islamorada. The fishing was awesome we caught Maui, Tuna, Snapper and even a Sailfish. The manatees visit the dock daily and we felt like we were living in paradise! We can't wait to go back.
The Irvine’s are great hosts, and we had a wonderful week. This house is a great location for boaters, with easy access to both the gulf and Atlantic. We will look forward to another stay.
We really enjoyed our stay. The owners were quick to respond and very accommodating. Plenty of room for our boat. The description was exactly what experienced. We’ve already booked our next stay this and their other house.
Great home, great location, great property manager
Very nice home, very clean and easy access. Private boat slip/dock was very nice. Owner was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Definitely plan to reserve again.
well maintain, clean and relaxing. we brought our boat with us, nice dock just be careful when low tide, depth is just around 1.5' at entrance to canal.
Had minor issue and owner got it taken care of right away good deal on house and location was good one not road to property is very narrow so impossible to bring boat on trailer to home plan to put boat in the water prior to going to home and if you are not great at backing up a trailer in complex areas plan on leaving trailer somewhere else. We were able to get trailer to home but was very challanging
House was nice and clean, as usual. Some updated furniture and new paint was a nice surprise, the place looks great. Chris is helpful and communicates well. We will be back again next year!
Fantastic stay. We come down to the keys once a year in June for a week every year and this was the perfect spot. Super clean and updated. Everything you need to cook anything in the kitchen. Great water access to the ocean or the bay right around the corner. We kayaks and paddle boards down to the end of the canal every night at sunset. Communication was fantastic. Very responsive. No negative comments whatsoever. Will definitely stay here again.
Beautiful home. Very well maintained! Owner was excellent to work with and very clear instruction and communication. The only downfall( not the owners doing) but the home is at the end of the canal lots of debris gets stuck in the water. Especially when Debby came to town😉 The canal is not swim-able nor fishable since lots of people go out on their boats and come back to clean their catch. Neighbors were very nice! Nice quiet neighborhood.
We stayed for a week for fishing and diving. The house was perfect for our needs. We had ample space for our 32 center console including space for our trailer and 2-3 vehicles. The house is close to the end of the canal so boat traffic was minimal. Communication with Chris was great. We had an issue with the ac when we woke up we made contact at 6am and he had the Ac back up and running in just a few hours. We would stay again and recommend to others.
This was our first trip to the Keys and the Irvine's great canal house is right in the middle of everything! As the many other reviews stated, the house was bright & clean and ready for an active family. We didn't see any manatees in the canal which made my duaghter sad-- and we realized too late that having our own boat would have been a good idea.... But Chris is an excellent 'host', was super accommodating, full of good local hints & knowledge and a good Embassador for his world.
The dishwasher did not work. No instructions for the air conditioning unit. Very difficult to use Wi-Fi.

Not bad, not great
I would say this place is just okay. Configuration is very strange with the lower bedroom not internally connected to the upper floor main living area...you access it from a separate entrance with separate key outside next to parking. Two of the bathrooms (which are not pictured in the listing) are horribly configured and very inconvenient. Couch and chair in main living area are incredibly dirty and disgusting...it's like 25 years of accumulated filth. Bedspreads were stained which is not acceptable. Upsides...the location is good and the communication with the owner was fine. Not sure we would stay here again, however.

About the host
Hosted by Chris 239 -398-7706
We are a family that loves to be on and near the water. We love to fish and swim. We also love to share our favorite spots with friends and family. We enjoy sharing our home with friendly good natured families who love adventure. We are responsible owners that spend lots of time at this home. We really care about your vacation.
Why they chose this property
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!! We love Islamorada FL and this home. Its location helps us easily explore the crystal clear water of both the reef and back waters. We are close to many shallow water snorkeling spots and lots of waterfront restaurants. Fishing close by is wonderful. We strongly believe cleanliness is more important than ever. We are ever vigilant in keeping this space fresh and clean.
What makes this property unique
IN THE HEART OF ISLAMORADA, this home is located on a safe, quiet, private paved street and it has wonderful protected dockage with quick easy access. Also plenty of room for your trailer if you bring your boat!
