The 4 of us had a wonderful week at Taimy's home, Key Largo and the Florida Keys in general. Communication with Taimy was timely from the beginning and when a few minor issues came up during the exchange she was quick to resolve them even though she was out of the country and in a different time zone. The pictures don't currently show it, but the house has some super comfortable soft seating and dining table located in the shade under the home and an outdoor billiards table. We spent most of our time when home relaxing in this wonderful outdoor environment. The kitchen was so well stocked with cooking supplies that it probably has more than our full time home. The AC worked great on the warmer days, although it did get a bit chilly some evenings without heat being available. Although there were plenty of blankets provided which made for cozy and happy sleeping. There were not very many neighbors around when we were there but in general the neighborhood was very quiet and well located relative to shopping and great restaurants. We were a bit disappointed that the listing stated there were bikes available only to find out after we finalized that the bikes were in disrepair and we couldn't use them. Not a big deal though as we were quite happy spending most of our outdoor time on the water. The house is right on a canal that leads to miles and miles of amazingly clear water in the wide open and also in very fun small "paths" in the middle of mangroves. We saw so many fish, stingray, manatee and sharks every day! The house includes many water sport options including kayaks and SUPs which we used daily and put into the water right in the backyard. But they could all use some TLC to be fully functional and fully enjoyed by all guests. All in all we had a wonderful vacation and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend exchanging with Taimy for this lovely home.
Taimy’s home is gorgeous, it’s even better than pictures. The sunsets are beautiful. We even saw manatees in the canal. The house is Impeccably clean. So much to do a week was not enough.
We hosted Taimy and her husband for 10 days in November. Taimy was very easy to communicate with. She knew Dubai already having lived in Qatar, so she was very autonomous and needed very little support. I hope you enjoyed your stay at the studio. You are welcome back any time!
Taimy’s family was great. The house was left super clean and tidy. One couldn’t tell someone stayed in the house. Would love to exchange again.
Ryan and Michelle were great guests. Communication was perfect. Would love to host them again in the future.
Anick’s home is beautiful and the location is perfect. Having a hotel set up is great. Communication was very smooth. We would love to visit again.
Very nice townhouse, the community is very kid friendly so they can play outside or at the playground. There’s also a community pool that can be used. The house is very clean and has everything one might need.
Very nice guests. Excellent communication.
