This property is in a terrific location and having the pool nearby was a plus. I could easily walk to town and really liked having the quiet time at night. I would go back!
Was great place to stay. Just don’t cook anything as the fire alarm is extra sensitive and constantly went off. Otherwise great place to stay.

Overall great experience. Unit very clean and comfortable. I suggest instructions for the TV. TV in living room was not easy to navigate to news or local channels. Never watched TV due to lack of instructions. The keys should be in a lockbox at the unit instead of pickup and grip off at the office.

Second time renting for several weeks in early March. This unit is nicer than some others we looked at and rented previously. Nice deck in back, short walk to the pool. Very convenient to everything in Key West. Two blocks to the Green Parrot, three blocks to Duval, 15 minute walk to Fort Zach beach.

THIS IS A CONDO WITH A WONDERFUL LOCATION. THE UNIT HAS COMFORTABLE BEDS, BUT A TERRIBLE FUTON AS A LIVING ROOM COUCH. IT IS VERY HARD AND NOT APPROPRIATE FOR A LONG STAY.
Communication of the staff was superior….a very organized and professional team. Location and unit were great. I’d definitely like to book again

Perfect weather, location, and week in Key West. It’s our favorite place! We always go out to dinner, which is a treat, but noticed there was no grill at our unit. We would have not used it anyway because there’s so many good places to go out, but some people like to cook at there house or condo. Other than that, it was a great place and would rent there again!

Reviewer Comments:
An over abundance of pots and pans but very few bowls. The lack of a key to open and close the patio door meant a walk round the street side to go to the pool or take out garbage etc.
Aqua Oasis is the perfect spot for a little get away. We stayed for ten days and it was everything we needed. It was very clean, just enough space for us, and only a five minute walk from Duval and a block from Blue Heaven. If you are looking for somewhere nice and quiet, this is the place for you! The only problem we had was parking, because we had multiple vehicles. You only get one spot, and have to find somewhere else around town to park another vehicle or golf cart if you rent one. I would definitely give this a five star rating, and would stay here again in the future.
Clean, great location, PARKING IS A logistical nightmare
We arrived on the weekend after hours and the guard shack attendant said we couldn’t come in because we drove a Ford F-150 truck and they don’t allow parking of those. We called the office and they told us how to get our key, and confirmed there was no parking of trucks in the annex. The lady told me it was in my contract. I must have missed that part. Also, we contacted the property manager the week before our visit and asked about parking our seadoo or our boat and he messaged back and said no trailers allowed only 1 vehicle per property on the street (he mentioned nothing about trucks). So after we unloaded our luggage we had to park 1.2 miles away and pay an additional $215 to park for the week at the local parking garage. We rented a scooter to get back and forth to our vehicle as we needed it daily to put our boat in the water. Between scooters and Uber’s and parking a regular sized truck it was a nightmare. We went to the keys for mini season so of coarse we had a boat to go lobstering. The place was nice and clean and had plenty of linens and the pools were nice as well. The location was great, the communication or lack there of and parking is the only reason we weren’t happy with our stay. Our friends rented a unit there as well and had 2 vehicles and were only allowed to bring one so they used our parking space as we weren’t allowed to. Parking was a logistical nightmare.
Great location close to everything! The condo was wonderful and had everything we needed. Can’t wait to go back!

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Lack of communication
The property was decent but the units are not well insulated and the top floor guests kept us awake many nights. Also, there was a lack of information in the unit on how things work like the TV. It was requested that we take out the trash, but the trash bins are hard to locate. It would have been nice to have some welcome items such as coffee and such. This is not the nicest VRBO I have rented.
Absolutely loved the location of this property. Pool area was amazing and we could walk to the beach at Ft. Zach. We will definitely return to this property!
It’s a great location, in a great neighborhood. There are lots of amenities, including a pool. If we were in the neighborhood is extremely friendly. If you do an after hours check-in, it can be a little time consuming to call the after hours number, but once you get a hold of someone, they were extremely helpful. Overall it was a great stay and pleasant vacation.
A great location in Key West. Easily walkable to most major places of interest. The Truman Annex is a beautiful neighborhood. The property was nicely set up and the instructions were easy to follow. We had a minor issue but Compass fixed us up right away.
