Perfect for my Wife and I

In town to shop for property. Location was not only perfect for the areas we were looking at but also in being able to speak with the locals about the area. The Cass Cove, or whatever the name of the bar next to the condo, was a great spot for a nightcap and/or dinner everynight. We'll be back for our next stop when it's time to sign to build!

Keel Cay condo

Condo with nice pool. Condo provided 2 TVs, good amount of dishes, kettles, utensils, condiments, paper towels & TP, and linens. Cute beach theme. Overlooked the pool, quick walk to outdoor bar, store, & restaurant. Marina is steps away, too. Mike, the owner, very nice and responsive.

Great condo and friendly people!

My daughter and I stayed for a week and had a great time! The condo was very clean and well stocked with everything you would expect. The kitchen has everything you need. The pool is very convenient and the people there are super friendly. The owner was very responsive to all my questions before we arrived. Check out the outdoor patio at the restaurant for great drinks, food and nightly activities. On Fridays, there is a Farmers Market out front and the food vendors are wonderful...especially the fresh fish guy. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay and very nice accommodations.

Nice place to stay

We stayed here for a week. We enjoyed our time at the condo. Neighbors were all very friendly. I’m not sure where the heated pool or hot tub were, because we never found them. We did have fun however! Our waitress at the Restaurant our last night there however was not very good. Seemed to cater more to the regulars and forgot about us. I had to ask the hostess for our check. Just FYI, nothing about the property was a bad experience!

For a post hurricane property it was in decent shape. We had a good time and the amenities were adequate. The condo unit could have used a good and thorough cleaning prior to our arrival.

Nice, clean condo.

We had a great time on this trip! Didn’t really spend much time in the condo, but it’s location and proximity to everything was perfect for us! Mike did a great job communicating and checked in on us periodically to make sure everything was perfect. The only thing that wasn’t mentioned, is that the fitness center is an additional cost. Not really a big deal, because we spent most days on the road house shopping and checking out the area. Just wanted to mention it for future renters.

Unexpected change

We arrived at 8pm to enter our rented condo with a marina view but instead we were surprised with a pool/parking lot view. When I called the owner, Mike, he informed us he had water damage in the originally rented condo the week prior. We were not made aware of the condo change until we arrived. The condo we were given was very nice however we felt this issue should have been communicated to us prior to arrival. According to the owner the damage happened the week before, this would have allowed us time to agree to change condos or cancel and rent elsewhere.

Terrible experience

We arrived to check in and someone answered the door to the condo and said it was her place. We were shocked. She called the owner and then she took us upstairs to another condo, not the one we had rented on the 1st floor. We had NO idea what was going on. The condo was not very clean, it was hot and not ready. We could NOT get a hold of the owner. He wouldn't answer the phone. There were NO check out information, just the worst experience. We would NEVER rent from that man again.

Stayed here while waiting for my house to close. I especially appreciated the full kitchen. There is a restaurant/bar immediately next door overlooking the marina as well as a small general store with some interesting local items. Mike was very helpful and accomodating.

Late Sept. trip

The unit that is showed on VRBO is a first floor unit and That is what I thought I rented. (due to my knee) there are 2 second floor units that I had a choice of the day I got there. Owner was accommodating but clearly needs to be more specific on website.
