First, the good, and there was a lot! The location can't be beat. Close to Duval, Fausto's, Cuban coffee, the Farmers Market, and a liquor store. Everything you need is within biking distance, if not walking. Firefly and Santiago's are both great restaurants within walking distance! The pool was great (heated, which in December was important.) Beds were very comfortable. The best part was our outdoor space in the back, with a sofa and dining table...we LIVED out there all week. The uplighting on the tropical foliage at night was absolutely gorgeous. The outdoor space absolutely makes the unit. Also, when our garbage disposal backed up (totally our fault, one of the men decided it should be fine to put a bunch of raw broccoli through there), we called Vacasa who said they would send out a repairman in the morning. But then he showed up anyway to fix it right on the spot, at about 9:00 at night on a holiday weekend! We were so impressed and grateful.
There were a few things that were less than perfect, so I'll be honest about those, too. The kitchen lacked even the most very basic, standard things that most places make sure are stocked at least for your first night, such as salt and pepper, a couple coffee filters, oven mitts, etc. While it did sleep six of us as advertised, it was a really tight fit. Not a lot of space to park six bikes, either, which meant we had to give up our front porch space (but we preferred the back anyway.) The very nice gentleman next door, who is a full-time resident, smokes several cigars every day out on his back deck, so if you are sensitive to that smell, you will probably be happier in another location.
All in all, it was a very good stay in Key West, which is always fabulous.
