Absolutely perfect
House was fantastic. Great beach and snorkeling when tide was out. Everything was what we expected. Far enough away from everything to be peaceful but only 20 minutes to a real grocery store. Thanks for everything!

Perfect Florida Keys Stay
This was our second time staying at the Henry Flagler and it was a great time. The back deck on the water is perfect. We rented a boat from Pier 68 and kept it at the dock. Marathon is the best bet for restaurants near by. The kitchen is fairly stocked and the grill in the porch is nice to grill.

Slice of paradise
We had an amazing stay at this property with friends who rented the other half. It was like living in an aquarium with all of the fish, sea creatures and birds. We spent the days sitting on the pier watching the kids play and snorkel. The units were clean and had ample kitchenware and towels. The washer and dryer was fantastic to have as was Netflix! The outdoor space was great, grills and lots of seating. Even ceiling fans in the palapas! My only negative was that there were a few things in need of repair. - closets all off the rail. Easy fixes. Would DEFINITELY return.

Very enjoyable experience, and location.
The house is small but very enjoyable. The beach is right outside, and the skies, and the ocean make the scene just perfect. A spot perfect to relax and enjoy the Florida Keys.

Everything you want and need
Our family of four stayed here for four nights, and we had an outstanding time. One of the few places with a beach in the Keys, this duplex had all of the sporting equipment such as kayaks paddle boards and fishing poles that one might need. It's location is central to the entire Florida Key system so you can enjoy both upper and lower keys. Can't wait to come back!

OK but not worth the money ...
Several issues on our stay:
- cockroach infestation throughout the house
- disabled internet(asked vacasa for assistance but the issue was never solved and the vacasa employees didn't sound very enthusiastic to help)
- huts need good repair
- beach needs some cleaning(plastic bottles on the shore)
- not vacasa's issue but at&t cell connection always breaks up
- there is not much privacy
- beach not the best for swimming(seaweed)
Overall I can say the location and free kayaks were good, but I would not visit again or recommend it.

Okay
We had a good time overall on our vacation, however, we did have a couple issues with the henry flagler. Our dishwasher had no power the whole stay and smelled bad due to sitting water inside of it. When we called the property manager, they said we would recieve a response by phone within 24 hours. The repair man showed up the next day with no warning and still wasn't able to fix it. The traffic from Long Key bridge was a little noisy if you are sensitive to that kind of thing but we didn't mind it too much. The private beach front and beautiful view made up for most of the little things, but we expected a little more for the price we paid.

Vacation in the Keys
Despite the threat of Hurricane Matthew, we had a terrific time. great sunrises and sunsets. Right on a beach with the best views ever. The 2 bedroom was spacious, clean and well stocked with towels and linens. The furniture was contemporary and with a warm nautical theme. The kitchen had updated appliances. The only hiccup was the sink faucet, the nozzle was very difficult to pull out and use. Great personal patio; with plenty of seating and umbrella table. There was a communal Tiki hut; a little worn, but still great for dining. We would highly recommend and can't wait to come back.

Rare beachfront!
My husband & I stayed in the 'Henry Flagler' side of this duplex. Two bedroom/one bathroom with stocked, full kitchen and comfortable living room with satellite TV. King bed in master was comfortable. We came to the Keys for a 4 day, nothing planned, getaway....this was perfect! Tiki huts with plenty of lounge chairs, covered deck for eating were great. Having a private, white sand beach stay in the Keys is rare, so this was exactly what we were looking for. Bought groceries at Winn Dixie in Islamorada and cooked all of our meals, which saved a ton of money and time. There were already some things in house such as spices but I wouldn't count on it. Long Key isn't in the heart of stores/restaurants so highly recommend groceries. Shared laundry room with the other side of duplex. (we didn't use) Private, shared dock allows for fishing from shore or tying up a boat. There are some parks/beaches near by, within a short driving distance. We'd definitely go back and recommend to friends and family. A few things to mention: only ONE wash cloth for two people, NO dish cloths for the kitchen (I used a dish towel), outside gas grill was left dirty (with food still on) from previous renter. We didn't use the grill because it was so windy, we couldn't keep it lit. AC worked great but it does make a loud noise when it kicks off and the first night scared us to death because it sounded like someone kicked the door down!
