Just what we needed after a chaotic and sometimes stressful last year or so. Comfortable place with a pool that was perfect to paddle around in, do a version of some water aerobics moves, and enjoy the jacuzzi action. It felt more like a family home than an impersonal rental. We did nothing but read and enjoy the pool. We walked to the restaurant at the marina and had some good food. Even though we just stayed around the pool, there's tons to do around there. We plan on going back.

The owner, Jerry, was quick to respond and very helpful when needed. The property was extremely private and the pool was excellent! The outdoor shower was key for me! I don't think I ever toook one inside. The house itself was a perfect size for my wife and I and the location was excellent. We will definitely be back.

Loved it. Would have stayed forever if it was possible. It really felt like home while we were there. Lots of supplies and equipment at the house. Pool is amazing and is such an oasis. Host provides a ton of information about restaurants and things to while there. Property manager shows you around personally. We will definitely recommend the place to anyone and will be saving up for our next visit.

I don't know where to start. Everything about Dragonfly was great! It was very clean, things all worked as they should. The beds were comfortable. Jerry was easy to connect with if we had questions prior to arrival and was still offering tips during our stay if we asked. All questions before, during, and after our stay were answered quickly and courteously. We have already booked again for next year!!

Relaxing vibes with the best location on the keys

We loved this property. Very close to everything but still felt like a tropical get away. The pool was amazing. Beds were comfortable and the space was everything described in the listing. The outdoor shower was also a perk. We loved having laundry on site as well. Super convenient and all the things you could need. Hosts were very attentive and answered al of our questions. The snorkel gear readily available was a cool addition and kept us from renting gear while staying in the area. Would consider staying here again.

Poolside Paradise

This was our first visit to the Keys and we were very pleased. The house is cozy and clean, and the outdoor pool area is phenomenal. Jerry and Lynn were wonderful hosts. The only bad part of the trip was returning to central Illinois weather.

Beautiful outdoor patio, amazing pool, and a very well air conditioned house. We had a great week here, only thing we wished was different was the jacuzzi connected to the pool was the same temperature as the pool, other than that, fantastic host and property.
