Tracy S.BEST TROPICAL VACATION EVER!!!!!!!!
Here is the review I am trying to post via for our March 2024 stay.Wonderful! Fantastic! Amazing!Wonderful Hosts!!! Jay and Sharon are so welcoming and supportive! We felt at home before we even arrived and that continued as we walked in the door and were greeted with a personal note, wine , gourmet cheeses & crackers. They were very responsive to inquiries and truly enjoyed hearing about our adventures!Fantastic home! The place is immaculate, beautifully decorated and so comfortable! A home away from home but better! We stayed for a month and loved every minute of it! The tiki area was a favorite spot where we enjoyed the views and sounds of the channel & good tunes through the bluetooth speakers. We loved the hammock chairs so much we bought 2 for our home in Ohio.Amazing location! Islamorada is a beautiful place to be. The home is in a quiet, residential area with friendly neighbors! It is an easy drive to many great restaurants. The nearby bike path leads to beautiful views and fishing in either direction. The private beach was absolutely lovely and only a few minutes away by bike or car…a few minutes more via kayak. If you love being on the water then this is the place for you! Kayaking, paddle boarding and snorkeling were daily activities! If you are an avid boater &/or fisherman this is your paradise with easy access to the bay and ocean right from the dock.Last but certainly not least, there was no shortage of sea life sightings right from the dock and in the open water. Manatees, crocodiles, nurse sharks, bonnethead shark, various fish including parrotfish.Overall one of the best island vacations! We plan to return!

Dawn Alexis C.OUTSTANDING ON SO MANY LEVELS
The magic began with the excellent, attentive, and kind correspondence with the owners. So excited for us to enjoy their home. Upon arrival, the magic continued. The photos you see are exactly what you receive when you enter the property and home. Very clean. Very well maintained. During the first week, the owners kept in touch to make sure we were happy and needed anything. After that, they let you "vacation" but made sure they were a call away if needed. You have everything you need. And I mean everything. No need to bring your soap and towels. Had every kitchen utensil, serving platter, grill tools that you would need. We were welcomed with a beautiful sign and goodies basket. The manatees were well trained and visited very frequently. That alone (after the property of course) was well worth the price of admission. The private White Marlin Beach is fabulous. Renting a golf cart, even though it is a short walk, was a good idea. That being said, their dock is the perfect place to be anytime of the day. Not to mention, the plentiful kayaks to use. The cool kayak launch is perfect for those not able to jump down into a kayak. And a short paddle to open water. We so look forward to returning as it is that good. Very peaceful, surrounded by beautiful nature, and you could not ask for better hosts. Sharon and Jay were so amazing and kind. You are treated like family before you walk in the door. You will not be disappointed!!!

WOW! Thanks Dawn, We appreciate the kind words but working with you both through your vacation made us feel like we were on a family vacation with you... thank you for respecting the house and taking care of it like it was your own. You guys were amazing and cant wait to have you visit YOLO again!!! See ya Soon, Jay and Sharon
Meghan and Tom K.5 STAR!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE Our new found home away from home. YOLO truly lives up to the name!!! for the avid fisherman it has everything you could possible need. Outdoor living space provides relaxation second to none with its hammocks, chaise lounges, top of the line gas grill, sectional sofa and nurmerous games including cornhole. Indoor living beautifully appointed and the best part is the king size bed is the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in aside from our own. This house does not dissapoint. We look forward to the next time we can vacation there. Jay and Sharon are especially accommodating, willing to go the extra mile.

Carmen M.Awesome
We had a wonderful time!! The house is beautifully decorated and we had everything needed in the kitchen to cook our Thanksgiving dinner. We used the kayaks and bikes provided almost everyday for trips to the beach or to view a sunset. The private beach was very inviting. The water was so clear it was like being in the Caribbean!! We had so much fun playing games in the back yard and relaxing in the tiki hut with a cold drink. The Tiki hut is the best!!! The host was very easy to get in touch with, very informative and friendly. He made us feel so welcome. We absolutely love and totally recommend YOLO.

JohnLocation, location, location
Wonderful location for a Keys vacation. Close to beautiful private beach and channel 2 and 5 bridges. Canal behind house makes it a perfect place if you have a boat (if not there are kayaks). House was super clean and owner was easy to work with. Can’t wait to go back. Was sad to leave because I had just figured out how to catch fish.

Jennifer K.Amazing! Beautiful House!
We had a fantastic stay at YOLO! The house is beautiful (recently renovated) and very well appointed with linens, towels, kitchenware, etc. and was spotless!There are bikes, kayaks, a ping pong table and a bar to use while staying there. Our favorite part was sitting outside on the covered patio watching the manatees swim by.White Marlin Beach is a short walk through the neighborhood. The beach is clean and the water is crystal clear.Very relaxing.The host was fantastic. He was very responsive and available 24/7. We can’t wait to come back.
