Avis Key West-style oceanfront home w/breathtaking views and private beach walkover

Great location. Beautiful, clean house with gorgeous view. Great for a big family or for four couples. Not comfortable for the elderly people for now, until the access to the beach is rebuilt. Everything we needed in the house for our stay was provided. Would be nice if a beach umbrella and beach chairs were available. The property caretaker was helpful when we had some questions.

The 3 story house was well stocked with dishes, towels. Plus pull out couches for the kids to sleep on. Loved the elevator, just had resent knee surgery, i was not able to do stairs very well. The only disappointment we had was no beach access. I rented this house on the beach so that my 7 grandchildren can play on the beach. The pier on this property was never replaced from the last storm. We had to drive to go to a beach for them to play.

The location and the view are excellent. The house on the other hand needs some work. It is not setup as a rental property and needs improvements on some basic stuff. Its missing curtains including the master bedroom and bathroom so neighbors can see right in at night. Electrical outlets and switches don’t work (only one outlet works in the whole kitchen). There’s missing/burnt out light bulbs through the house. There’s not enough plates and glasses to accommodate guests. 3 plates of a kind, only 1 tall glass and they still only have 3 wine glasses. The back door on second floor doesn’t close right and the whole door is missing in the pantry. They also need a better cleaning service their fee is quite high and not well cleaned. The windows look like they haven’t been washed in quite some time. Beautiful view but you can’t see out the windows. The coffee pot still had old coffee, the stove was dirty and some pillows were stained. It’s a shame because it’s a great location and the balcony views are amazing. They just need to put some TLC into the house and make it vacation rental property ready.

The house was nice overall but needed to be cleaned better and there were some safety issues that need to be addressed. I reached out to owner to let them know what was going on and still have yet to hear a response. The floors were not cleaned, there were broken toilet paper holders/towel bars in several bathrooms, missing posts on deck, unsecured deck handle, dead palmetto bugs stuck in a/c vents, etc. House was nice and bedding was clean but there are quite a few things that need to be updated to make it great. Cleaning crew was also late finishing which meant we had to check in about 30 min late.
