Excellent vacation

One of the best places we have stayed in KCB. We stayed at Flamingo Nook for 2 weeks. The place is beautiful! The pool, the screened porch and the entire home is beautiful! You can tell it has recently been refurbished and that the owners take pride in their home! We have already booked for 2026! Thanks for a great vacation!

Quiet and relaxing!

Beautiful place to stay. The private pool was a huge bonus for us, we were in it all day long. Enjoyed being on the canal and watching the boats, birds, and jellyfish. The house has everything you need. Nicely decorated, comfortable beds. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Flamingo Nook

We booked our stay after combing through dozens of places. This little gem was just what we needed. It was clean, fully equipped, has an adorable pool and a place to dock our boat. It’s also located in the middle of Marathon so it is close to everything. Buyer beware—it says it sleeps 4 people but that you can make special requests for extra guests. However, this property really only means 4 people. No exceptions.

Perfect!

The pictures do not do this place justice. The water is seriously out your door. We had a couple of concerns based off the reviews. The kitchen sink was replaced. Grill was brand new and had 2 new tanks of gas. Pool was clean. Great central location for day trips to Key West. Would definitely stay here again.

Loved our stay at the Flamingo Nook!

Everything was as described. I have rented in Key Colony multiple times and loved the location, the property, and the canal. Rental was clean and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots and pans. Had a little bit of an issue with the hospitality app that was used for check-in/communication not showing new messages but that is due to the app and/or my phone and I was very happy my call was answered on the weekend to help us check-in. Would definitely stay again!

Absolutely Stunning!

When I booked this property, I was already hooked on the amenities. But then I got there it was more than I could ask for! My family (boys 10 and 7 + husband (I mean really 3 kids! Ha) and I enjoyed seeing the manatees, pelicans, herons, yellowtail snapper, mutten snapper, etc off the dock. To top it off swimming after a long day of being on the boat. It was amazing! We will be booking here again.

Flamingo Nook Review - 27April2024

My wife and I along with another couple had a great week at Flamingo Nook and the KCB-Marathon area. Flamingo Nook was perfect for four people. Kitchen was well equipped, beds slept well, plenty of towels including beach towels. The staff at Key Colony Beach Realty were excellent to work with. Thanks to Casey and Tyler for answering my questions and communicating when we could get in, etc. The Cabana Club was a nice plus! Large pool, nice little beach, good bar for an adult beverage and excellent staff. The pool at Flamingo Nook was a great plus. It was nice to cool off and relax after an afternoon on the boat. Dockage is good with the tide slide mooring setup. Dock was big enough for a 21-foot boat with no problem. All in all, it was a very good vacation. We would stay at Flamingo Nook again.

KCB

What a great place to stay. We loved the pool and the sunset views. Everything worked out great for us and another couple. The only thing that bothered us was the grill. Prior to arrival I had inquired if propane would be there so we could use the grill. The rental company stated there should be propane. We used the grill one night then it ran out. I stopped by the rental office and asked how they filled the propane tanks. I was told I could fill up the propane tank myself. If you're providing a grill then propane ought to be included.

Very nice place ...

Please read ALL of review and not just concerns/cons. Thank you.1). Cons/issues: a). Pool was not cleaned (maintenance schedule(?) or weather timing(?) with a small metal spring and a metal angle bracket found in pool to which I removed, and the pool pump had known issues that were needing to be fixed (LOUD). b). First bathroom sink drain was draining slow and toilet ball valve slow-leaked. c). In the hall up on the wall near the first bathroom was some bare wiring (missing smoke alarm?). The next day after reporting the pool issue, maintenance came in and wired/connected the emergency light to the bare wire. d). After pool pump was fixed, pool heater no longer worked. e). After pool pump was fixed, outside lights along the palm trees and the mini-putt no longer worked.2). Pros: a). Communication with Chandler was friendly and prompt. b). Pool pump was fixed. c). Bathroom concerns were fixed promptly. d). Nice place.If pool heater and outdoor/outside lights are fixed, my wife and I would not hesitate to stay again.
