A Place on Emma

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall it was a positive experience. There were a few glitches. The pool was filthy for the first two days of our stay. The filter was broken which I believe was already known to the owner. Not sure why this wasn't fixed or we were not told before check-in. Wifi was incredibly slow. Only basic cable, but we weren't there to watch TV. Upstairs hallway bathroom needs a remodel. Location was great. Pool was beautiful once fixed. Master bedroom and bath were very nice.

Christmas in Key West

This is a lovely home. My family enjoyed staying here very much but felt the management company failed miserably. Before we arrived I had specified that I wanted the pool to be heated. it was not. Despite 2 phone calls to the management office and speaking to the regular staff, there. was no effort made to heat the pool. Finally a third call prompted action. The third call was answered by an "emergency" worker who actually did something. She told me that she would have someone to the house the next day but that it would take 36 to 48 hours for the pool to come up to temperature. That meant that for 4 days of our 7 day stay the pool was not heated despite the fact that I had prepaid for it. It seems to me that I should be offered a refund on the heating charge. There was never an apology or the offer of a refund.

Great house in a great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased to find this house clean, everything in working order, beautifully furnished inside and outside, and well located for our activities. The rental agency was easy to deal with and very professional. The only negative for us was a den with a sleeper sofa instead of a 4th bedroom. That might be ok for a short stay, but not for 7 nights.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A Place on Emma is a wonderful house in Truman Annex. We loved how close it was to everything but yet far enough away to be quiet and relaxing. Our family loved the room options and the great pool. It was an awesome vacation and we can’t wait to return.
