Comments pertaining to above rental property that we first rented in October 2010 & again October 2011. We always had looked forward to returning to one of our favorite places Key West, Florida. We found what we thought was a good vacation home rental. The rent was reasonable and the house has everything that you could want to make your stay enjoyable. Plus the fact that it is within walking distance of a nice beach. Those are the positives regarding this property. As far as the not so positive aspects there are a few. #1 it is located across from Key West High School so you do have the problem of students arriving around 6:30 am. Also because it is a high school they have a high school band that practices daily. #2 The house lies in the direct path of Key West Airport. #3 If it happens to rain for any length of time plan on the 1st floor becoming flooded. It happened twice in one week with over 12" of rain during our last stay in October 2011. It did happen to flood but minor in 2010 also. During the 2011 flood we lost luggage and an expensive computer because of the flood. When we raised concerns about this we were told we could no longer rent the house which we had already reserved for May & Oct. 2012. #4 the single story house on the right has an owner who exhibited an arrogance that was unacceptable, he played his music loud most of the day and it seems that he was always working with a power saw on his boat, it was quite annoying. And finally he had a rather large black dog that at various times wandered around unleashed which he said he had because he had been robbed. Since we had small children with us we were concerned for their safety. We were willing to overlook these issues because of the all inclusive price.
