Important Information for Florida Keys Beaches:
Please note Keys beaches are not like mainland Florida beaches. There is no surf and most of the time you will only see small waves hitting the shore. The water is inaccessible from the land. If the water Tide is high, you can kayak and paddleboard out from the shore. If the Tide is low, there's no access to the Ocean From the beach.
Beaches in the Keys, just like beaches on the mainland, have seaweed that comes and goes. We make it a point to pick up garbage that might come ashore on the beach that is within reach, but we cannot control the seaweed as it comes ashore.  
The beach here at this home is man made. If you stepped into the water you're gonna find that there is sinking sand within a few yards of the shore. On high tide you can swim out to the Sandy turtle grass for snorkeling. The experience of wading to this area can be uncomfortable. It is best to kayak out a few yards. Water shoes are a must. 

So why have a beach in the Florida Keys? To sit and look at the ocean from your very own private beach and watch the sea life swim by ..tarpon and bonefish frequent these flats you can see them tailing by. Porpoise swimming and breaching the surface and maybe even a sting ray jumping out of the water and the ever changing water color depending on wind and tide. A great sense of calmness will over take you in this idyllic setting.

Keys Getaway
The house was beautiful and very accurately described. The beach was a disappointment. It was pretty impossible to even get anywhere with a kayak. I imagine it had to do with the timing (tides, etc). The bugs were brutal and I think the beach area breeds them. In our past vacations in the keys we have also been in neighborhoods where we could walk and take the babies for walks as well. That wasn't possible here so for us personally the location didn't meet our needs. The management was very good, very attentive, and always answered our inquiries very quickly. We requested a gas grill and one was brought the very next day.

Week went by very fast!
We had a great time on our family vacation at Casa De La Playa. We especially enjoyed the pool, pool toys, kayaks, back porch, and tropical landscaping. We also enjoyed using the beach toys and beach tent at area beaches.

DO NOT BOOK!!! PART 1
Such a disappointment, I'm not even sure where to begin. The pictures are definitely deceiving. When we 1st arrived we were told the keys would be found in the lock box but yet never instructed where the lock box was located. After searching the property for 20 minutes we located the lock box which in fact had no keys in them. 1.) The outside of the property home was disgusting. The smell was unbearable. The beach front was covered in debris and trash. The house photo listed 8 tiki torches lined on the beach, however there were only two with empty fluid containers in them and then other empty tiki torch containers thrown around the beach. The beach was completely unusable & undesirable. 2.) The pool area is nowhere near what the photos show. The pool was small & narrow with dirt, sand, dead crabs and other debris floating in it. The patio furniture is also not what was shown in the photos. The pool patio furniture was extremely old/outdated and falling apart with holes in it. There were broken pool equipment and yard tools scattered all around the property. Broken/deflated pool toys and floats everywhere. Empty water bottles and alcohol beverage cans left around the pool area. There were trash can lids tossed all under the home with lose trash tossed on top of them rather than secured in a trash can.
