Absolutely do not miss out on the opportunity to stay at this lovely vacation home. The house is beautifully decorated and really feels like a home away from home. It's spotlessly clean, warm and inviting, and Venture Out feels completely safe for a family friendly environment. The owners have thought of absolutely everything you could need while staying there, and there is a great binder of activities nearby that they have compiled. It was great to wake up every morning and enjoy breakfast and coffee on the porch (with a spectacular view of the ocean!), and spend the afternoon fishing right off into the canal. We would highly recommend going deep sea fishing with Capt. Jim Sharpe from Sea Boots, based in Summerland Key!!! He and his first mate Johnny gave us the trip of a lifetime. Two of the restaurants we enjoyed were the Square Grouper and Galley Grill; do not miss either, and make sure you go to the Galley Grill for a seafood omelet! We also went on a sunset cruise in Key West (just a short drive away) with Sebago; DEFINITELY choose this one over their competitors, Fury charters. And actually, we thought the best place to watch the sunset was at Fort Zachary Taylor park in Key West (Mallory Square may be famous, but it was always packed with people). It's quiet, secluded, and at the real "southernmost point" of the US. My family will definitely be back to vacation here again, and it will absolutely be at this home.

As we pulled up to our vacation home for the next 5 nights, I felt myself give a sigh of pleasure at what was waiting for us! I felt like a little kid, as I ran from one area to the next, exclaiming in delight! Your home is a jewel down in the Florida Keys and I am so happy to have discovered it! It was late evening when we arrived, so the best was still yet to come! Our morning sunrise!!!!!! The views from the porch are spectacular! I could have spent hours, maybe even my entire vacation, sitting on the porches, just relaxing and enjoying the views. However, we did leave this splendid home to see what the Keys have to offer. We went on a fishing charter. It was myself, my husband and another couple. I caught a 55lb Amberjack!!!! I've never gone fishing before, so that was fun! Our "mate" Larry, cleaned the fish for us and we took it to a local restaurant in Key West where they prepared it for us. DELICIOUS!!! Our days were busy doing things but it was always wonderful to come home in the evenings. Your home is better than described. It really is perfect. We will definitely recommend your place to others and plan to come back next year. Thanks for sharing your home with us and others!

We had an awesome time at your wonderful place. it was perfect for us. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked ( although a pitcher would be a great addition) The views were like a huge dose of medicine. I literally spent hours on that porch. We have an older child so he could ride to the pool with his buddies so that worked great for us. The drive to Key West was longer than i liked but we still did it several times. We had a major breeze the whole time so the heat was totally bearable. It did rain all day one day, almost a tropical storm, but we just hung on the porch and visited with our friends. We found the delicious place right on Cudjoe called the Wharf which everyone should visit. Fresh organic blood orange margaritas, or fresh mango!! Awesome burgers, super clam chowder!! We also found No Name bar on No Name Key which i highly recommend. Again, i loved our house and its location. Can't wait to come back asap!

Just returned from Cudjoe Key Yesterday. What a wonderful time we had in Venture Out. We've been to Venture Out before and loved it there. Your house is EXCEPTIONAL. You've equipped the house with everything, we could not believe how thorough you were to include any little item that is useful. We loved using the bikes. The bedrooms & bathrooms were great. Kitchen too. 3 TV's - awesome!! Great friendly neighbors. And best of all the LOCATION of the house. Incredible views & vantage point on both decks & seawall. This must be the BEST unit in the whole complex!!! We will definitely be back next year.

Great home. Amazingly clean. Just as listing described. View was incredible, beds were soft, nice bath and beach towels were provided and the kitchen was amazingly organized. We rode the bikes around the community one morning, which was a fun break. If you are a music lover though, the home does not have a CD player/speakers, but they do have satallite music stations on the tv. The Kubiaks are great renters and provided plenty of info about the area. I highly recommend the Square Grouper for lunch or dinner (about a 3min drive) and stopping at the SugarLoaf Lodge outdoor tiki bar for drinks and their amazing fish sandwich as you head down to Key West. You will not be disappointed with this place. My only one was that we didn't stay longer. Thank you!

Just returned from 2 weeks at this fantastic home. This place has absolutely everything -- great location and views, dockage for larger boat, lockable storage, plenty of shade. Home is extremely clean and well appointed and has good privacy which is hard to come by in this busy resort. Photos included on this site do not do it justice - the sunrise is incredible. Venture Out Resort is safe and very well maintained with great amenities and this house is one of the finest rentals there. Owners have provided everything needed for a memorable Keys vacation.
