Family-friendly holiday rentals in Vaca Key

Perfect for our family of 5. Great outdoor area at the house for fishing and relaxing. The layout was great for us because of the separation from the master to the kitchen/living room…our baby could sleep and we didn’t have to worry about making noise and waking up the baby. KCB is in a great central location for exploring the Keys. We were also pleasantly surprised at the quality of restaurant’s nearby. The Cabana Club was crowded and has a small beach. Drinks there were good. I have nothing overly negative to say, other than that I wouldn’t look to stay in KCB or this property if you just want to hang at the pool and beach all day. But it was fine for a few easy afternoons between other activities in the area. We highly recommend and would stay again!

It was an unforgettable week in Maria and Johnny's house. The house was very clean and beautifully furnished. Each of our three children had their own room in which they felt very comfortable. Our bedroom had a large terrace where my wife could do yoga in the morning sun. The kitchen and living room were really well epuiped and terrace with the hot tub were just right for a relaxing family holiday. Nothing was missing. Communication with Johnny was easy and quick. He gave us great ideas for activities and restaurants in the area. Thank you for that. We can highly recommend Maria and Johnny's accommodation!

Our group of six adults loved our stay at One Particular Harbor! The property was beautiful and spacious! The pictures couldn’t do it justice. Our hosts were very helpful and attentive! We would definitely stay there again.

Our group of 8 stayed Feb 2025. The home is nicely decorated, clean, and Jose supplied a starter set of toiletries for the shower, hand soap, toilet paper, paper towels, dishwashing liquid, dishwasher pods, some coffee pods, and spices for cooking. They supplied large beach towels for the pool, a small cooler, and noodles. The oasis pool and hot tub were awesome. Don’t miss the second pool by the marina that is heated and a hot tub grotto which was perfect in the evenings. 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, you just can’t beat it! This townhome is located near many restaurants and fun places for activities. You enter the home from the first floor but second floor is the main living area with full kitchen, living room, and nice balcony. Two bedrooms are on the third floor so lots of stairs but worth the trip. First floor has a private king bedroom with a pull out couch in the living area and a small kitchen. Laundry room is in a storage area outside next to the front door. We loved our stay and Jose!

The stay was great loved the big pool and scenery. Anything we needed we felt comfortable asking. Star properties was great ! We will be back for sure

This house was absolutely amazing! Our family had the best week here. The outside area was so nice and lots of room. We all enjoyed the pool. I loved to sit on the swing every morning and evening. The house was perfect, had everything we needed for our family of 6. It was walking distance to the cabana club that we very much enjoyed also. Lots of food options within a 15 min drive. We would absolutely love to come back and stay.

Very beautiful place, quiet, so many things to do in such a short time. Loved it!!

We enjoyed our stay at Keith's place. The kitchen was well stocked except for having only one hand towel which we had to wash a few times. We loved being able to make coffee every morning and sip it on the patio, there is a drip coffee maker and plenty of filters. We purchased coffee and other food at Winn Dixie which is a very short drive, less than 5 minutes. The view from the balcony is even nicer than the photos. Traffic was congested at times because of road construction so we had to leave ourselves extra time to get to places. There were a lot of activities we did like scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, shopping, etc and Keith's place was in a great location to do everything we wanted and a short drive to many restaurants. Keith gave good recommendations for things to do and places to eat. The Roku TV was nice, easy to watch anything we wanted and also to stream Netflix, etc. If in the keys, we would definitely book Keith's place again.

It is a great place just a little tight getting the camper in The neighbors are all very friendly and helpful

We booked this home last minute and now have our go-to vacation spot in Marathon! Alida is a friendly host with great communication. The home is very clean. Beds are very comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, etc. The kayaks and paddle board made our vacation even more special! The steet is very quiet and peaceful. The setting in the back yard is very private, as is the long dock. We had a 23' rental boat for our stay. The view is amazing and the sunsets are a special treat each evening. I very much appreciated the ample, comfortable seating everywhere - inside and outside of the home. Thank you Alida. We made great family memories here!

Beautiful home with amazing access to amenities

5 of 5 stars!! The room was just as pictured and very clean. The taco truck steps away hit the spot after a 10-hour drive, and the bar was a nice bonus. Free fresh coffee in the mornings was a great touch. Room service caught us by surprise, but it was nice coming back to a clean space. Overall, we’d definitely stay again!

Great place and location. Close to lots of restaurants. Pool was really nice! Kitchen was fully stocked and nice that they provide paper towels/toilet paper/dishwasher detergent/etc. to get you started. Had a nice bottle of champagne waiting for us upon arrival as well.

This house was a perfect spot for my partner and I and Cooper our pup. swam in the pool, sat in jacuzzi, paddle boarded ,kayaked, road the bikes, ect. we brought our boat down but unfortunately had a few issues with it so wasn't able to go out fishing as much as we'd liked. but there was plenty to do at and around this beautiful place. would definitely come back in the future:))

This home was just what my family needed for our vacation! We all loved relaxing in the outdoor living room surrounded by greenery. We also enjoyed swimming in the pool and kayaking through the canals and Boot Key. We made most of our meals due to dietary restrictions, and the kitchen here was adequate. The location in Marathon is excellent! It was just a 5-minute walk to Sombrero Beach, so we never had to worry about parking. We could easily drive to all the activities we wanted to do in the area, too.

The house was well equipped with all of the essentials. We had 8 adults and plenty of room. We did have to wash towels a few times, and buy more laundry soap, but the washer and dryer were conveniently located on the main level. The pool was smaller than what the pictures showed, but it perfectly suited our needs. All members of our party viewed the listing before we booked it and none of us realized it was a twin home. However, there is tons of privacy and the only times we noticed we had neighbors was when the shared dock was used. We had to buy a cooler (for poolside and the beach) and beach chairs. There were some pool floaters left behind, from previous guests that we used. The interior of the home is beautiful, with high ceilings and comfortable furniture. This is in a great location - close to grocery stores, restaurants and Sombrero beach! Monica was great to work with!

We had never been to the Keys before and were not sure where to stay. Islamorada ended up being an excellent choice. There was a great variety of activities nearby, and within a 30-45 minute drive there were even more unique places to visit. The private community where Gina's house is located feels like a mini-resort that The Mouse would be proud of. The community was clean, the staff were extremely friendly, and the other people we met were all gracious. Gina's house was well located - close to the entrance and a 1-minute walk to the pool. The house was super clean, comfortable, and the few things we had questions about were immediately dealt with by Gina. We're considering another trip to the Keys and would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to another group.

This is our second time staying at Ron and Irma's place and we'll continue to go back! The condo is spacious, clean, modern and in a convenient location. Ron and Irma made sure to include absolutely everything you may need during your stay– down to the pots and pans. My family and I love staying here, and we highly recommend it.

The view is beautifully tropical with the ocean water alternating turquoise blues! The white sand beach, palm trees and sparkling pool added to the ambience. The condo had everything we needed, beach towels, umbrella and beach chairs were a plus. There is a high school next door so you can expect high school activities. As it was our first experience in the keys, the location worked well for us. We could go back and forth across all the keys and experience what they had to offer.

The accommodation and the host delivered what they advertised and exceeded expectations by far. We had a fabulous week in The keys.

We really enjoyed our stay. The place was very nice. There are a lot of activities nearby ranging from kayaking, to snorkeling, to boating. The pool in the complex was great! We would definitely stay there again.

We stayed at this wonderful houseboat as we began our trip to the Florida Keys and it was perfect! We saw manatees, enjoyed dinner at the outdoor bar with locals, and had a beautiful view of the sunset. Great location with a wonderful host!

We had a fantastic stay here during our week in Islamorada. The house was incredibly clean, uncluttered, and had a nice feel. The road noise was pretty much constant, which we were prepared for ahead of time based on other reviews. But noise makers were provided and helped a bit. There were full sized soaps in the kitchen/bathrooms. There were plenty of cleaning supplies in the kitchen including garbage bags, Clorox wipes, and dishwasher detergent. Beach/pool towels were also provided. All of these amenities make it easier when traveling by air. The property had paddle boards and kayaks for use on a first come first serve basis. All 5 of us, my hubby, our three girls ages 13, 19, and 21 had a fantastic time paddling around nearby. Watching the sunset was particularly lovely on the water. There were some fantastic restaurants nearby that were walkable and within a 5-10 minute drive. If we were to come back to the area, we would definitely consider staying here again. Thank you!!

Amazing!! We had an incredible family vacation and planning our return for next year!! This place has everything you could ask for amazing restaurants right around the corner you can take a boat to or drive!! Chris was great to work with gave us awesome recommendations and answered questions. He rented us a boat dock for the boat we rented so we literally walked out our door jumped on the boat and headed out fishing or snorkeling. The cottage is just perfect with the three beds and the fold out couch. Don’t look any further this is the place to stay! Pool right there beach fishing pod the dock and a cleaning station. Perfect location!! Thanks for an incredible time!!!!
