Relaxing Getaway

It was amazing to be in the warmth of the Keys! We had a wonderful time taking it really slow. Lots of yoga in the yard for me and walks with my husband through the neighborhood, or down to the community beach. The kids have been playing music, creating a board game, making art, and laying in the hammock. We have been kayaking, canoeing, and supping around all the canals and in the bay. We've seen several manatees and even a couple of mamas and their calves. They swim right by the dock! On the suggestion of the owner, we went to Theater of the Sea, the Turtle Hospital, and snorkeling at John Pennekamp. We felt totally safe (Covid wise) because each of these things is outside and requires masks. I'm sure that this trip would have looked different at a different time (we would have gone to Key West) but it was an absolutely perfect warm getaway for us right now. Thank you Mark!

Best Vacation Ever!

Great to be close to Pennecamp, snorkeled, Kayaked and played. Perfect spot on the canal. The most relaxing spot to get away. It is a Jimmy Buffett song! This is like paradise. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Fantastic week in the Keys

We have just returned from a wonderful week in the Keys staying at this property. We had the BEST time! It worked perfectly for us (4 women) even with one bathroom! lol! The property was very clean, had everything we needed, and was in the perfect location for us to take day trips to various destinations in the area - Miami (an hour away), Key West (approx two hours away), Bahia Honda State Park (with THE most perfect beaches!). There was also plenty to do close to home. We dined at several great restaurants within a 20 minute drive, took full advantage of the use of the kayaks, canoe and hammocks, and just enjoyed the beautiful tranquility of the area. The owner checked in with us to be sure everything was ok which was very nice. We are already planning our next trip here and I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet place to relax and unwind.

Wounderfull, relaxing vacation

My family and I stayed here for our first time in the Keys. The house was very comfortable and clean, with everything we needed to make our stay great. We were greeted by manatees on the first day and saw them many times during our stay, along with iguanas and peacocks. The small community beach was a nice place to go swimming/snorkeling (saw a nurse shark one day), and was only a short walk to the end of the block. The use of the canoe/kayaks was great in the canal ways and bay, and we also had fun exploring the area on the bicycles. Fishing was fun in the canal as well as the bay. The location is great with many wonderful restaurants nearby. We enjoyed snorkeling, scuba diving, and visiting the everglades and all of the other Keys, all the way to Key West. We all thought the Key deer in Big Pine Key were something special to see. The owners gave recommendations, answered questions on things to do in the area and helped make our stay unforgettable. I would highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the Keys.

We really enjoyed our stay here, and the owners were very nice. They were helpful when needed and it was easy to communicate with them. We had never stayed at a house on a canal before. Sitting by the canal was very relaxing where we could fish and still had internet access. The wildlife was amazing, we saw peacocks, iguanas, a lot of different types of fish, jellyfish and manatees(saw 7 at 1 time). It was a peaceful neighborhood, with friendly neighbors. There's a lot to do and a lot of great restaurants in this area.

Great place, great owners.

Rented the place for the month of March 2014 with my wife and daughter. The neighborhood was very quiet and safe and great to walk around in. We even walked to some local restaurants. The property is great. We really enjoyed the porch, large yard and canal views. It is just a short block from the community beach which was nice for our child. We also appreciated the covered parking, kayaks, and canoe. I cannot say enough good things about the owner. He was exactly who you want to rent a vacation property from.

scuba lover

My husband and I have been coming to the Keys since the early 80's and have been enjoying "Pleasants Nest" for the past several years. This property is definitely the most comfortable, centrally located conch house that we have ever stayed in. The owners and Bob, the maintenance person, have done everything possible to make our stays enjoyable. I feel very comfortable in the neighborhood, Pirates Cove, when taking our evening walks. There are manatees and iguanas that visit while we are enjoying the quiet mornings. And when it's time to go do what we do best, scuba dive, we are only 5 minutes away from the only dive operation in Key Largo that we use, Horizon Divers. Can't say enough about Pleasants Nest and the owners, Mark and Geraldine!

Perfect Keys Getaway! We Love This House!

I was lucky enough to stay in this wonderful Keys home for the first time 2 years ago. I have been back several times since then, and my family and I just LOVE it! We even rented it for a month this past summer, and I was so sad when the month was over. I didn't want to leave! This house is so relaxing! It is located on a canal and has plenty of room for your boat to tie right up. We have seen manatees every time we have visited, and once we even had 9 manatees playing right in front of the house complete with a little baby manatee. It was so exciting! There are coconut trees in the yard, and iguanas exploring the yard and boat dock. I love that you don't have to travel far in your boat before you are out in the ocean and fishing, diving and snorkeling. Heck, you can even catch tons of fish right from the dock. The house has lots of extras. There are two kayaks to use, a canoe, and even bikes. We spent hours in the kayaks exploring all of the great areas right in the waters by the house. And, speaking of the house, it is a very relaxing home. I always sleep in the king bed in the master bedroom and it is DIVINE! Super comfortable. I love the open area of the kitchen and den, and the wrap around porch/balcony area. We love sitting out there after dinner and just enjoying the Keys! FInally, I cannot say enough about the owners of this home. They are simply incredible. You could not ask for nicer of kinder people! They are extremely accommodating and truly want their guests to have a great experience. I cannot wait to visit this wonderful home again soon.
