This property was listed as having 1900 ft.² when in fact it only had 1200 ft.² as per the listing in Zillow. Also, the host would come into the house unannounced numerous times. The host listed the property for sale which is against policy. The host also claimed the refrigerator was broken when in fact, the owners changed the settings. The overall experience with these host was extremely terrible.
We visited from Colorado for a month (mid Dec-mid Jan). On our day of arrival, we received a message from the host advising where to find the key and inviting us to check in earlier in the day than planned. Once we got there the house was as described in the listing. There was information provided (wi-fi, trash etc.) and the host provided a cell phone # so we could text if needed. The host responded promptly to our texts. The house had everything needed to cook/clean/laundry and was a very comfortable place to stay. It felt cozy and "like home" The neighbors were nice and the neighborhood was very quiet. The area was a good location for seeing sites around central FL (highly recommend Santos trail for biking/walking) It was a nice surprise to see a small Christmas tree in the front window:-) The host even gave us a Christmas present. I would highly recommend this
"cool vibe" oasis on a trip to FL. Thank you for the hospitality.
The Key West is absolutely beautiful and we had a wonderful stay. We appreciated the well-thought-out theme and lovely decor. The accommodations and amenities were perfect. The owners are such nice people—best property managers we have ever dealt with, bar none. The neighborhood is quiet and relaxing. It is scenic and just a short walk to a gorgeous lake. Our neighbors could not have been more welcoming. They offered tips on things to see and do as well as valuable tips on places to shop and dine. They gave true meaning to the expression “Southern hospitality.” We will always remember our stay at The Key West with fond memories. We recommend a stay here very highly!!!
We stayed here and it was wonderful! Nice clean place, all the amenities needed for daily living and the owners were magnificent! They were easy to talk to and were there for anything I needed.

About the host
Hosted by Toshwatie Sharma
We love to travel but our favorite family place to visit is anywhere that the water is ice blue and warm in temps. We love the snorkeling finds like conch shells, old bottles (On display in the home), Red snapper caught fresh off the beach, waves and Sunshine!
Why they chose this property
This home was built in love in a subdivision where we (As property owners) raised our (2) young children for the past (2) decades. Every nook and cranny is top notch, safe and clean. Neighbor to left is an avid bass fisherman and goes out daily with his boat to catch fish. ALL neighbors are exceptional in manners, friendliness and respectful.
