My daughter and I used this property as a base to explore the everglades and the keys. What a great location! The house was very comfortable and a great balance between feeling like our place and getting the sense of the owners. Preston and Anita were probably the friendliest hosts we've come across and they were very responsive and accommodating. We'd love to return and stay in their spacious and beautiful home again in the future.
Excellent 4bedr house in great location. Easy to get to stores, Starbucks, Everglades, Keys, Miami. Perfect for our family.

Just ok
Conveniently located to Everglades park entrance and the keys, however overlooking the broken AC (host discounted the stay), house had lots of mosquitoes and was not clean. Disappointed with this property mostly because of it not being clean.
Accurate listing of a home rental with excellent location for access to the Everglades and Biscayne National parks. Nice, safe neighborhood and plenty of space for all. We had a great stay. Thank you!
This place was amazing, it felt like home. We had another VRBO cancel on us the day before we arrived to Homestead and Anita accommodated us at the last minute, we are so grateful. The property was big, nice, clean, and fully stocked with anything we needed. Nicely decorated and cozy, would absolutely choose to stay here again
Clean, comfortable, and close to everything in Homestead. Very nice home in a nice neighborhood. Great communication.

Nice home, but various issues
Nice home and patio, but floors, toilets and counters were dirty. Clothes closets and dressers were completely full of owner's items and unavailable to use, no place to hang or store clothes. Refrigerator and kitchen cupboards had lots of owner's food left in them leaving little room for our items. Disposal was not functional. Icemaker was not functional. Ants in kitchen and bathrooms. No instructions on checkout. Overall we were pretty frustrated/disappointed having to deal with these issues. Our usual experience with VRBO has been way better than this, mostly very positive.
This home was cozy.
Host met us there and gave us a tour of the home, chatted a few minutes, and gave a few points of interest. This home was way more space than just 2 people needed but with a day and a half of non stop rain...it was nice to have space to roam! Even with this home being in a neighborhood-it was quiet.
Would recommend this home for your stay! The host, Anita, is great and just a txt away if needed!
Large home with plenty of space for everyone. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure in there shower was awesome. Anita was so kind to accommodate our late checkin and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. A fabulous stay, thanks 😊
Selfishly, I don’t want to tell anyone how great this place is for fear there will be a run and I can’t get back in again. But for the sake of the wonderful people whose home we were blessed to visit I will rave of its beauty and perfection. We had such a lovely vacation in this home, it will always be special in our memories. The mangos, the coconuts, the convenience to everywhere we wanted to go, this has it all! All the comforts are there and all the necessities as well. On a 5-star rating I give it a 10!
Anita was amazingly hospitable, she met us a bit earlier than check-in time and gave us a tour and a tropical smoothie from backyard fruit, and had plenty of coffee— always very nice! — and some groceries she invited us to use. We quickly discovered some common background and it certainly added to feeling like guests. Beautiful, tasteful and very peaceful house, very pleasant space, full of light and sweet details. Very comfortable beds, very nice backyard/garden blending into the open grassy park with a playground within short walk. You can make a 30-minute, 1.5 mile loop around the lake (we did every night we stayed there). Grocery delivery is easy. Straightforward drivers to Everglades NP and Key Largo. Strongly recommend.
Spacious house with comfortable beds and sitting areas. Close to the Everglades and Key Largo. Fresh fruit from trees in the back yard were a delicious bonus!
