"Overall recommend. Great accommodations. Owner was pleasant. Property location was excellent for Lido Key beach. Would recommend a bit more stuff for the kitchen like pans and a user manual for use of the stove, since it’s an induction range. Also would be good to have some more pillows for sleeping. Water kitchen doesn’t get hot, may need to be adjusted. Just some ovservations but overall the property was clean & as pictured. Thank you!!"
