If I could give more than five stars I would. This is a wonderful place to stay. Super clean!! There is nothing bad to be said about this property or the manager. Everything was great. And Wayne knows the most wonderful place to get tacos. Be sure and ask him, you won't regret it!

It was a wonderful vacation for my family.
As soon as we entered the house, we received a warm welcome in a form of exotically shaped avocados and aromatic mangos and a spotless clean house. We found Amazon Prime and Netflix very entertaining and relaxing in the evenings after our busy day. This place is for someone who appreciates nature and enjoys quiet mornings, days or evenings looking at the sky and green grounds. I never felt better on my vacation and I miss it very much already. My family was absolutely overwhelmed by this place. Wayne is very kind and helpful when you need his help. The property is located in a very peaceful and beautiful town, there is absolutely no other place in Florida where you can relax as much.
We will come back, because it is truly best place in Florida! Thank you Wayne!

We had a great time staying at Wayne's place. It was well represented online, and there were no unpleasant surprises. It was clean, comfortable, and well located for day trips to the Keys, Miami, or the Everglades. Wayne, the host, was polite, prompt, and clear in his communication. He gave us our space, and was never intrusive, but was there for us if we needed help, or wanted to ask a question. We would recommend this place to our friends, and would not hesitate to stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at this well appointed comfortable space. Our host Wayne did all possible to make our stay good. He brought us fruits and allowed us in early. The home is well stocked with needed kitchen items and linens. they have labelled all the light switches to make it easier for visitors. We were very comfortable for our family of five with three teens.

We had a great stay at this home! The owner is very courteous and replied to a question promptly. We had a relaxing time, enjoyed walking the grounds and used the fire pit and really appreciated that they had a cooler to use on our day trips to Shark Valley and Flamingo in the Everglades, Biscayne, and out to Key West. The home is central to the parks, quiet, and comfortable. A great stay!

We loved staying here, it was just what we were looking for, nice and quiet, with room and amenities to handle our scuba diving equipment rinse and dry out time. It was surprisingly centrally located to the things we we wanted to do... Everglades NP, Biscayne NP, the Florida Keys and family that we were visiting. It was well appointed with kitchen, laundry, two bedrooms and TVs (though we did not watch any). It is secure with a automatic gate to enter the property. The guest house is to the rear of the main house, with fruit trees all over. There was not much in season when we stayed there, but we did enjoy fresh tomatoes and papayas. The owner, Wayne, was very friendly and helpful, responding to the couple of questions quickly. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to the Miami area again.

We have stayed in several Airbnb’s and Wayne has been our best host so far! He thought through everything we may need for our stay. Unfortunately, we needed a place to stay for a funeral for a close family friend. Having a nice place to stay for the weekend made an emotional weekend so much easier. He was always available and communicated with us throughout our stay! The house was laid out well and very clean!! It has a very homey feel to it. The electric fence made it feel very secure. Thank you, Wayne for making our stay so enjoyable despite the circumstances.

We cannot overstate how much we enjoyed our stay. Being right on an orchard was idyllic, and the home is both stylishly decorated and nicely outfitted. Super clean, very homey, the hosts are outstanding and thoughtful. We loved having the freshly harvested fruit, and the outside wash station is great for beach goers. Awesome central location for south Florida sightseeing, and they have a very nice little library for local info. Everything we needed for a perfect vacation!!!

Wayne and his family were great to work with and communicated with us every step pf the way. They went out of there way to provide anything we wanted. The privacy was outstanding and the fruit farm was magnificent and so peaceful at sunset. We use VRBO a lot and this is one of the very best experiences we have had.

This place was beyond clean and the service was impeccable. It is so nice to be able to wash clothes! The beds were so comfortable. We were able to cook and spend quality family time together. Perfect for our family of five. The location was perfect for us to take day adventures to the Keys, the Everglades, and Miami. We had so much fun exploring the fruit industry and getting to taste all that Wayne grows. We never once felt awkward or unwanted. Kinda felt like we’ve known him forever! We feel blessed to have found this place! You know it’s a win when three teenagers say they wish they didn’t have to leave.

This house is situated in the middle of a tropical fruit grove. It was a so nice to have fresh mango, lychee, and plums everyday. The house is very accommodating for a large family. And we were more than comfortable. The layout was thoughtful and the kitchen had everything you would need to make a great dinner. We were in the Redlands and surrounded by farms and fruit stands. I even found a market close by selling double yolk farm fresh brown eggs. We loved our stay and would come back and stay again in a heartbeat.

This was the perfect place for our family. It's on an orchard, removed from the city. It's quiet and it's location is excellent for exploring the Everglades and the Upper Keys. Wayne is the perfect host. He always timely replied to my messages and was willing to work with schedule changes.

Wayne’s location is great for anyone who wants to explore the Everglades. It is also near grocery shopping, yet it is still a rural setting with many plant nurseries in the area. We enjoyed having breakfast and dinner right on the patio and listening to all the birds. Wayne has a great library of nature identification books and local history books. We were delighted to find a cooler. Everyday, we packed up our lunches and headed off to the Everglades for a day of looking at nature. The house was spotlessly clean. A live, blooming orchid was on the dinning table- a beautiful welcome. Loved it! Thank you Wayne.

This is a lovely 2 bed house with large lounge / dining room and well equipped kitchen in a handy location. The garden / orchard is large and very nice to walk around with many birds to see especially at dawn. The location is handy for trips into the Everglades or to the Upper Keys without the high cost of Keys' hotels. Detailed access information arrived in an email a few days before check-in and we didn't actually see any occupants of the main house at any point. I guess work and vacation timings don't meet. We would happily stay here again.

We stayed here while visiting the national parks in South Florida. The house was easy to find and we knew exactly what to expect thanks to the detailed instructions/information provided prior to arrival. When we arrived we were thrilled with the comfort and cleanliness of the house! The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and everything was easy to find. We were greeted with a bowl of fresh picked limes from the orchard which were delicious in our evening cocktails. The house was the perfect size for our family of 4 (2 kids, 2 adults) and the orchard was a wonderful place to explore with the kids. We truly enjoyed coming home every evening to this relaxing, peaceful retreat. Wayne was a pleasure to work with-even when I accidentally booked for the wrong week and had to change the dates-and made sure we had everything we needed. If we are ever in S. Florida we will definitely stay here again!

The house is in the middle of an orchard with limes, avocados, and star fruit, if you are a birder you will love it out there. Wayne and Christina are amazing hosts and will help you any way they can. If you want a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the Redland's are that place. If you have time check out some of the amazing Latin cuisine around the area the convenience stores have some great food. Miami brewing is close by and the beer is great. So if you want a great place to stay this is it very secure and beautiful. Enjoy the sunsets and the beauty of Florida in a place that is very peaceful. Have fun, you won't find better hosts anywhere.

The grounds were enjoyable, I spent most mornings on the patio watching lizards and birds. The mangoes and avocados growing there were delicious and exciting to have fresh! The site is in good proximity to many outdoor places to visit, being between the Everglades and Biscayne, plus close to the Keys. Grocery shopping and restaurants only a few miles away. Wayne left very detailed info on the house, and gave us a great tour of the trees and told us a lot about the local agriculture. Really an amazing stay. Could not be happier. I recommend this place to any family or group wanting to relax away from an urban setting. I was extremely impressed.

We loved our stay in Homestead! The guesthouse is roomy, charming, clean, and comfortable. It was easy to find and access. The homeowners are excellent communicators via rental website, email, and voicemail. The linens were luxurious and mattresses so comfy. We appreciated the coffee and condiments, microwave, toaster, modern bathrooms, beautiful furnishings, and even granite countertops. The setting is a tropical paradise with mango, avocado, lime, and lychee trees just outside the door and across the patio. We wondered around and picked and ate lychees and ciruela off the trees! There was even a carambola tree right by the patio. Wayne and Christina are friendly and kind. They encouraged us to pick whatever we wanted and gave us all kind of fruit to eat while we were here and sent a bunch home with us, too.
The Fruit and Spice Market was a blast, and we marveled at being in the midst of so many huge nurseries and orchards. We took advantage of being so close to 2 different entrances to The Everglades. We loved the Homestead Bayfront Park.
Thank you, Wayne and Christina!

This house is on a tropical fruit orchard located in the Redland agricultural district just north of Homestead/Florida city. This is the perfect location for visiting Key West, Everglade National Park and Biscayne National Park.
We, two couples, had a very comfortable stay at this clean and spacious house in a very quiet area. Those host is very responsive to our needs. The host treated us with freshly picked mangoes daily. These mangoes is the yellow mangoes similar to the Manila mango. We really enjoyed to have one mango as part of our breakfast or in the afternoon after returning from an outing.
There are also a number of fruit stands on the main road to this house and a large grocery store (Publix) is only a few miles away. The famous "Robert is here" smoothies joint is only a few miles from this house. We are glad that we did not stay in Miami and its adjacent cities such as Coral Gables as the traffic there is terrible. We visited Miami and Miami Beach on our last day in Florida. We really did not like the traffic and the hustle and bustle of Miami or Miami Beach after the few leisurely days in a rural setting.
