Adjacent to the pool you can enjoy an outdoor show complete with cold and hot water.
We have also provided a relaxing atmosphere both inside and outside. This house has plenty of outdoor living and dining spaces that are perfect for the private retreat you desire on vacation.

Hidden Gem
We had a lovely stay at this hidden gem! The house & yard are very private even though it’s right off the road. The home was well equipped with what we needed for a comfortable stay and the decor was beautiful. The natural pool was fascinating! We will definitely be back if we come back to Homestead!

Beautiful, private space - excellent location
Awesome oasis property in a great location, allowed us to feel secluded while still being close to amenities. Easy to get to most of what South Florida has to offer, Miami, Everglades, Biscayne, Kay Largo, etc. The natural pool was amazing, the kids loved swimming amongst the fish. It was a great place to call home for a week.

Perfect Paradise
Hands down one of my favorite places I have ever stayed. The house is incredibly welcoming and supplies everything you need which made us feel immediately at home. The property is so tranquil and relaxing that sometimes the most exciting part of our day was when we would get to go back and rest after being out all day. The natural pool with the koi fish is one of the most unique features I've ever seen and was another enjoyable treat.Location is very convenient for getting anywhere we needed. Biscayne, Everglades, Key Largo, Miami were all within under an hour depending on time of day/traffic and which visitor center location we were going to.We will definitely be aiming to stay here again if/when we return to the area!

Unique South Florida Property
Beautiful live plants, koi fish swimming, great decor, multiple outdoor relaxing sitting areas among all the bougainvillea plants - we just loved this property, pricing, and owners. The street noise was a little high but the waterfalls drowned out the sound most of the time. So close to Biscayne and Everglades National Parks along with restaurants and fruit and fresh fish markets.

Absolutely stellar! 10/10 and will be back
This property is one of the best VRBOs I’ve stayed in. Super clean, well decorated, with plenty of amenities. The pool was cold, as expected from a natural aquifer, and it was rough on your feet since it’s coral rock. Bring some flip flops or water shoes.
The charcoal grill and the fire pit and sitting area were delightful.
The owner was incredibly gracious and had great communication. I plan to stay here anytime I’m in in the area.

Jose and Becky are some of the best hosts I've ever rented from. Wonderful people and they were very quick to respond to my questions. The aquifer pool is incredible. Pictures can't do it justice. We stayed for 7 days and had a marvelous time! I wouldn't think twice about staying again. I wish we could've stayed even longer.

Great!
The house is nicely decorated and very well furnished. We enjoyed using the pool (shared with the koi’s 😍😄). 30 min from the Everglades,1 hr from MIA, 2.5hr from Key West was an advantage.
Street was somewhat noisy and crowded but ok.
Too much cameras around the house that we didn’t feel comfortable with.
Mattress of the large BR could be replaced.

Its own paradise
The property was incredible. It is a paradise and just what we needed after spending a few days in Orlando. It was enjoyed by everyone in our party. Communication was prompt and complete. The kitchen was the most well stocked of any vacation rental we have ever stayed in. Honestly the enter home was so well thought out.
We spent time at both Everglades and Biscayne National Parks as well as driving into the keys with ease. Then no one was disappointed to head back to relax.
The natural pool was our son's favorite to spend time in. He is eight and talks more about the pool than Disney World. We all spent time enjoying it whether the water, watching the fish or listening to the waterfall.
If you have read this far I hope you know this is well worth booking. The one detractor was the neighborhood at night, which was loud. The hosts have no control over this and often you completely forget during the day.

This property was amazing! My wife and I stayed here during our wedding and absolutely loved it. The house was beautiful, but the yard was what we really loved. The coral rock pool/ koi pond was our favorite. I highly recommended this property to anyone looking for a quite little get away from reality.

Enjoyed our stay!!
The place was excatly what we needed for our Family which included our two dogs. It was perfect for us! The pool, the patios, the ligthing, the fire pit, upgraded showers, and kitchen. All made for a cozy stay. The home is also fenced in with a electronic gate. The host, Jose, was very welcoming and was a pleasure talking too. There are some great restaurants and shopping centers all within 5-10 mins. I recommend staying here! I will do so again in the future.
