About Jose & Katie

My wife Katie and I met in New Jersey, where we both grew up, in 2010. We moved to Miami, FL shortly after having our son Nico back in 2018, where we live today. Katie works in Private Equity and I am a Real Estate Agent and Mortgage Advisor. We spent many years traveling the country and the world, using vacation rental services almost everywhere we went. We are excited to now be able to offer our own property to travelers to make memories in, as we have made so many memories in the homes we stayed in over the years. We will soon be a family of four with a little girl about to join us so we have put a considerable amount of thought into making this home a fun place for kids, as we use it whenever it is available to us as a quick get away and to make memories of our own.

Jose & Katie purchased this House in April 2021

Why we chose this house?

We fell in love with this homes breathtaking dramatic cathedral ceilings and custom wood design. It is a very unique property. You can tell when you are in the house that every part of the home was well thought out and if you look carefully on every window and door frame you will see a different nautical themed carving on each corner. However, the part of the home that really got our attention is the downstair area with the amount of potential for fun and entertaining. The screened in porch is amazing to sit on during nice breezy nights and the back and side yard make for a great open area for family gatherings. Catching fish is a breeze off the back dock and make sure you turn on the underwater light at night time to watch the fish go by. We've been able to modernize the house to fit the needs of the today's family, making rooms more private and making the living space more functional. We think you will enjoy your time here and if there is anything at all that we can do to make your stay more comfortable please do not hesitate to reach out!

What makes this House unique

Being on the water is what living in the Keys is all about and that is one of the biggest benefits to this house. We've added a floating dock and ladder for easy access to the water to launch paddle boards and kayaks or for access to your own boat. Don't forget to turn on the underwater dock light at night time and enjoy the show. The location of this property is also extremely convenient, with the ability to walk to a number of stores, restaurants, a theatre, gym and grocery stores. You have quick access to Overseas Highway to get to any other restaurants or activities during your stay.
