We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Big Kahuna! This house was perfect for multiple couples or families. Plenty of room and space for everyone. The dock and ice machine was great for people who bring their boat. And the pool was enjoyable to cool off in after a day of fishing. We would definitely stay here again.

We was very pleased with the house it was very spacious for our large party the game room was a big hit not only with the kids but adults also love the screened in pool with the tiki hut and the guys were very pleased with the dock The only real issue we had was the icemaker did not work but apparently the owner had also been having issues with it and was trying to get it fixed And then the ceiling fan in the living room did not work but we just bought a floor fan overall I would definitely recommend the place

We loved the Big Kahuna rental property. All of the people in my party were very impressed with the house and amenities. We had 10 people in our party and there was plenty of room in the house for all. The location is great! Sombrero beach is a 5 minute walk. Short easy drive to grocery stores and necessities. The dock was a big hit with our fishermen.

Overall great experience. Overall an amazing Keys house. The dock is pretty much new and is HUGE! You can easily fit 3 25ft boats at the dock!
But the commercial ice machine was a HUGE help as was the large chest freezer.

Bonnie and Rachel were so easy to deal with. They back to me immediately when I had any questions. We had a small issue with the downstairs air-conditioning. Bonnie had a repairmen on site within a few hours and she even stopped by the house to check on us and make sure everything was taken care of. She was extremely friendly and a pleasure to deal with.

We had the best vacation of our lives here. We had a group of 10; ranging from 13 yrs of age to 85 and everyone had plenty of space. There was always a quiet place to get away if you wanted to. The location was perfect. We had people that were there to fish and others who weren't interested. There was so much to do in the area other than fish that everyone had a great trip. The dock, fish cleaning station and ice machine were a huge plus. Nice to be able to fill the coolers with ice everyday before hitting the water. The beach that is only a 10 min walk was absolutely beautiful. It was never busy, not even on the weekends. I can't give enough praise to all that made this vacation so memorable. We will be back next year but for 2 weeks. 1 week isn't enough!

The vacation rental team was amazing. Bonnie and Rachelle assisted us with all of our questions, returned our call/emails quickly. There was a welcome basket prepared for us with all kinds of goodies which made us all feel really special. I'm not sure if it was because we were down there for our wedding or if they do it for everyone but it was a nice touch. It was an overall great experience. As far as the Big Kahuna property itself.... It was beautiful. It accommodated all of the guests. Our only issues were that the light in the pool didn't work and there was no other light by the pool except by the table so it made for somewhat dark swim nights. We had one issue with the heat in the pool on the second day but the Vacation Team fixed the problem immediately and it was appreciated. I would've like the roof top to have been a little cleaner there was all kinds of rusted pieces all around but it was still awesome to go up there and the view of the neighborhood and the ocean was spectacular. We would all definitely go back! Thank you so much for the stay! :)
