My husband and I stayed early November 2021. The duplex was exactly as pictured. It was very clean and comfortable. Since you are on the channel, the neighbors across the channel are very “close” so being out on the patio is lacking in privacy, but that wasn’t a big deal for us. The patio has a large fence on both sides so there is privacy from the side neighbors ( but not from the noise-there was a very barky dog on the one side). Just be aware, you will hear your neighbors when out on the patio. Again, this was not a big deal for us, but if you want a quiet private back patio area, you may not get it at this duplex. There was a friendly family staying on the other side of the duplex when we rented. We never heard them when we were inside the house, so it is quiet inside. We really enjoyed the easy walk to Sunset Park each evening. We used the Cabana club several days to swim and get drinks. We rented bikes for the week and rode to dinner , to the Cabana club, and we did a long ride down to the seven mile bridge ( we wanted to ride out to Pigeon Key, but the old bridge is closed for repairs-and has been for 4 years). We also visited Key West ( 1 hour 15 min drive ). Overall, very nice place to rent and we would rent it again!
