Thank you for the kind comments. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and happy to see that you are coming back!
A month in paradise!
After staying in St. Pete Beach for a month, we decided to go south and visit the Florida keys. We found Bill and Carolyn's place on Florida Rentals and decided to give it a go. What a wonderful experience!The apartment is ground level with a basic kitchen and all the amenities one on vacation would look for. Anything we needed would magically show up after requesting it. Kayaks are available for use and we also rented a boat which we tied up to the sport port for a few days. AC works great, as did the internet, but I wouldn't really call this is a work from home apartment, plus who would want to be working in keys anyway?We had an issue with the pool pump making noise, which was promptly dealt with during our stay. Other than that, nothing to report.Bill was extremely responsive and gave us recommendations for restaurants and other spots to visit during our stay. Look no further for a fantastic, affordable place to stay in Islamorada, we will be returning next year!
