Great location and nice neigh hood

My wife and I were down for the key west marathon. The place was great, beds very good good stock of pots and pans. We used the 2 person kayak which was very nice but it weights a ton hard to get out of water. Bikes were also great to use although a little beat up. I which their was a little more information on the area ,by the time we were getting comfy with the area we had to leave. Fishing poles would be a nice addition. Also I know we are the exception but if you don't have a cell phone the owner can be very difficult. Thanks we will definitely stay here again..

Nice relaxing place to stay in the Keys

Stayed for a week at this charming VRBO with my husband and another couple. Plenty of space for all of us to enjoy. The house has everything you need. We didn't have time to use the kayaks but did use the bikes and also the new grill. Went to Key West for the day which is only a 20 minute drive from Venture Out. The heated pool at Venture Out is very nice....comfortable 88 degrees. The only thing we wish we would have known about is the list of activities at the resort. We didn't find out about them until our last day there. The guard at the check-in didn't give us a the list when we arrived in the evening. Maybe that is something that only the office has when you check in before they close for the day. The property manager for this unit was easy to get ahold of her via text. She responded promptly to any of my questions. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Gorgeous Key Get-a-Way!!

This place was beautiful. When staying in a rental, there can always be a little something that is not right or goes wrong. Nothing went wrong with this place. The master bed evidently has an older form top mattress that doesn't dissipate heat, so it you are warm sleeping you will want to sleep in the second bedroom. It's not quite as bad. You may want to bring your own King Sheets and pillowcases. They were very rough!! All in all, I would recommend this place! They seemed to have everything covered! Remember that you have to pay a $125 plus tax fee to the resort weather you stay one night or more. This is on top of your rent to the owner!

Canal stay

Property was clean and accommodating. Enjoyed our stay even though the wind was blowing a little and had some rain. Close to nearby store and places to eat. Only thing that came up was the neighbor complained about my son fishing on the sea wall a few feet onto her side. We apologized and went on with his fishing and spoke for a couple more minutes which at the end she was very nice. Recommend this place for a young family.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay. This house is incredibly clean, modern and everything you need for a stay in the keys. The location fit our needs perfectly. We loved having the marina on site, the opportunity to ride bikes through the community, swim and to simply enjoy the outdoors in a secure community. We would absolutely stay again.

Absolutely perfect!

Everything was perfect, the house was beautiful and well stocked. We even saw two manatees hang out right in front of the house for about an hour! The location is great and the host was extremely helpful. Side note, the Square Grouper restaurant, which is just down the road, was one of the best places we ate in the Keys!
