Facts
We had very high expectations of a gorgeous clean private beach. The edge beach was littered with sea trash. Asked if rakes were available and told no. That the owner cleans every couple days, which is false, it looked like it had been quite some time since last cleaning. We were there from Friday to Wednesday and paid a good price which included service fees of $350+. Not sure what the service fees are for. We had to provide own toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags. Privacy was good. Kayaks, only 2 could be used because they were the only 2 with seats. The actual house was fair. It was clean. Definitely could use some TLC. We did spend most of our time on deck which was very nice.

We will definitely stay at the Zane Grey again!
We had the best time at this beach house! The house was equipped with all that we needed! It was sooo convenient to be able to wash and dry our clothes on site! The hammock and seating areas were awesome! We loved having the ocean within a few steps from the back door! Our 3 and 1 year old had the best time! We loved Layton/Long Key, because it was centrally located and we could travel to all of the different areas in the Keys. It was such a quiet area. The house comes with kayak use, so we enjoyed using those! If you have a small family, STAY HERE! We will be back!

Such an amazing place. Has everything you need and want. We brought our dog and he had the best time. You can watch the sunrise and the sunset from this house. This place has a lot of history that we learned about from the neighbor which made it even better. My son and his girlfriend kayaked, fished off the dock and caught some sharks. Great restaurants not far from the location. We will be back to this slice of heaven.....Over and over again.

One of a Kind Location
We stayed in this house on our fourth trip to the Florida Keys. We travel down each winter with our 3 kids for a respite from the New England winters. I can say, without a doubt, that this spot is beyond special. With a lack of beaches in the keys, having your own private sandy spot in these crystal clear waters was paradise. We fished off the dock, saw dolphins feeding right off shore, a shy nurse shark and endless other creatures. We kayaked and searched for sea treasures. Dinners on the wonderful deck were a highlight at the end of our days. There is a tiki hut on the beach and another built onto the deck which provided lots of shade and a wonderful respite from the sun. The tiki huts and deck all seem brand new and in fantastic condition. There is a grill for your use which also seemed new and worked great. We used it almost everyday. The house itself is just what you need. The only thing I can say about it is that maybe it could have been a little cleaner and the mattress on the sofa bed could use replacing. Since we have young children, who needed to be in bedrooms, my husband and I slept on it every night and it was a bit of an adventure! The beds however were extremely comfortable. We sadly had a glitch with the management of the property and Vacasa itself. We stayed for 5 days and before departing for our trip down to the keys, we got an email which stated items like shampoo, body soap, etc would be provided for our stay. When we arrived there was only 1 small bottle of shampoo and conditioner, no body soap and not quite enough toilet paper left for 5 people. I called Vacasa to request more but in 24 hours no one came. I then found a number for the local property manager who informed me that they just leave enough to get you by for a day or two (this absolutely needs to be stated in the email before you arrive) but she assured me that either herself or the housekeeper would be by with more. No one ever came. We finally took the 1 hour round trip to the grocery store on day 3 to buy supplies so we could shower and use the bathroom. Lastly, we left some valuable fishing reels at the property and my email to Vacasa about returning them to us has still not been answered. It was a frustrating experience, one we have never had with places before when renting down here. Overall, the house itself is just what you need and you will love this incredible spot on the keys!

Disappointing!!
2.5 Stars. Really too many concerns to list here. Worst part was how the property manager tried to deflect all our concerns and tried to twist them into somehow being our fault!

Just what we were looking for!
This property was as described and perfectly met our needs for a keys vacation in July. We could not have enjoyed ourselves more and especially liked the dock access, kayaks and free to use beach gear. Centrally located with easy access to marathon and islamorada.

great location
Location is the best part of this place. Perfect for just gazing at the water. House is well equipped. Marathon & Islamorada are equal distance to go to town. Beach gets seagrass deposit every high tide, but a quick rake as the tide is running clears it up pretty well. Though I prefer a separate house to duplex like this, not much noise from neighbors. There was sufficient room on the beach and decks to have your own space. We rented a 19 ft skiff for a week from Seabird Marina (good folks there). Water is thin, so approach parallel to shore from bridge. Tie up to dock and mooring so it will not swing into dock in current. Water between house and adjacent condos has a spot full of lobsters, but did not find much more snorkeling there.

Beautiful outdoor space
Outdoor area was absolutely beautiful! The tiki huts provided excellent shade and the kayaks and paddle boards made for fun adventures in addition to swimming. However, I didn’t like how the beach was not cleaned prior to our arrival and there were trash and toys scattered about. The inside cleanliness was absolutely appalling. Queen sheets were placed on a king bed, the mattress pad was horribly stained, the closet doors were off their hinges and leaned up against the wall which is a safety hazard. There were several other issues with the cleaning but I don’t want to belabor my point. My husband found a bra and a dirty pair of socks in the corner of the master bedroom which was off-putting. But, we enjoyed this home because we spent our time outside but I am questioning what the steep cleaning fees are actually going towards because the home was far from clean and maintained and finding others intimate garmets and having soiled linens are simply unacceptable.
