Lovely hostess who quickly fixed the front lock when it stuck. Large and beautifully equipped apartment with photos of local birds on the walls. Only a couple of blocks walk to the local restaurant, The Island Cafe, with good food and delicious Key Lime Pie. An excellent and central location for exploring the Everglades. We were sorry when our three days were up. Would happily stay at Rebecca’s again.

Great home base for exploring the Everglades

First time visit to Everglades City and the space was just what we needed! Had all the little touches including some popcorn, a screened porch and easy enough to walk to several places for breakfast and drinks & dinner on the water.

Retreat to warm weather

We stayed at this house for a few days to get out of the New York winter. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed setting out in the screened in porch. That apartment is very good size for 2 people. It is also in a very quiet neighborhood. I would definitely recommend this location.

This is my 2nd visit and will definitely come again. Rebecca is very helpful and easy to reach if you have a question or problem. The apartment is well stocked but a larger frying pan along with the smaller one that is there and a little more silverware would be helpful. L Mercer.

Great find in the Everglades City

We enjoyed our stay here. We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment. It was well furnished and VERY clean! This apartment is located in a great area near alot of the everglade atraction. We will definitely be back. The hostess was very accommodating with check-in. I highly recommend you visit Shark Valley for the day and take the tram tour, take an airboat ride, and see the 10,000 islands.
