Perfect location

This condo is in the perfect location, near the beach and near restaurants. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go. Key Biscayne is a beautiful safe town with laid back vibes. The condo was clean and cute and had everything we needed. Great for a small family.

Great place!

This was a perfect fit for our family of 5, and the location was wonderful. It’s on a quiet street, very close to the beach, and still within walking distance to restaurants. The apartment was clean and the host was easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this place if you are looking to spend some time on Key Biscayne.

Miami Christmas vacation

The owners were great to work with. They were very responsive when we needed them. Their place is situated within walking distance to the beach. They supplied beach chairs, umbrellas and although we didn’t use them, sand toys for kids. The area was very safe and I felt comfortable for my teens to go out walking at night. Winn- Dixie is close by for groceries and other restaurants if you choose to eat out. There is a washer and dryer, which was nice to have in the room. Parking was tight, but that goes for everywhere in the area. You do have 2 spots available to park. We had a fun vacation- thanks!

Short walk to beach and restaurants

Walk to beach in 5 minutes and multiple restaurants within 5-15 minutes. Short drive to historic sites and Miami. Not your typical tourist destination as most people seemed local. Beautiful area.

Great Decision!

We were going back and forth between a few different condos in this area. We actually decided to go with this one because it was way more budget friendly. And boy am I glad we did! This property has it all. Close to beach and pool was just right down the hall. The pictures really don't do this condo justice (inside and out). I highly recommend!

Island Paradise

My friends and I had a great time on Key Biscayne and in Miami. The property itself is in a great location, walking distance to beach, shops, grocery, and restaurants. The island is peaceful and beautiful to spend walking everywhere! The location is also quiet at the property and even walking throughout the island. If traveling off the island frequently, it is definitely recommended to have a car as ubers and rideshares are pricey and can take a while waiting. Communication was easy through the app and owners called to check in on us a couple days in. Will need your own beach towels and toiletries-a quick pick up at the shops. Other than that, the a/c had a hard time keeping up during the day, but at night it was fine. Everything we needed was there and available to make our stay enjoyable for the week. Would book again if returning to Key Biscayne/Miami area.

Perfection in Key Biscayne

This lovely condo is situated close to the beach, shopping and parks in quiet Key Biscayne. Our family enjoyed the beautifully decorated and very comfortable condo. The owners were very welcoming, responded quickly and were excellent hosts. Having beach chairs available was outstanding. We took advantage of the beaches, walkable quiet neighborhood and restaurants in Key Biscayne. It was a great stay and we rested well in the soft comfortable beds. We wish we had more time there!!!

Perfect for a Family of 5

Perfect for those arriving by air and looking to enjoy the beach. I couldn't travel with beach chairs and umbrellas so it worked out perfectly that the rental had those available for our use. The walk to the beach was a very easy quarter of a mile.

Great apartment, building and location!

We loved the "Welcome to Paradise" apartment, building and location. The decor was fun and delightful, convenient parking spot, fully furnished, very clean and comfortable layout with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. We enjoyed having breakfast and then walking on the beach in the mornings. This was a last minute reservation and Mario and Flory were so helpful, accomodating and easy to coordinate with. They called, emailed and texted apt details so it was easy to have the address and codes with you at all times. They treated us like close family coming to visit. We love the Governors Lodge building. The halls are very well lit, very clean with beautiful landscaping and quiet. Thank you Mario and Flory for sharing this delightful home with us.

Good location.

Great location. Tidy apartment but windows all open directly into parking lot if that is a problem - it wasn’t for us - super quiet windows. Parking was a tad difficult with construction workers using our designated for storing materials - but owner was able to get us another spot. All in all would rent again if in Key Biscayne.
