About this property

OCEANSIDE ANGLERS REEF 2/2.5 HOME- Gated community- Pool, Dock, Private Beach

"Windley Cottage" is a spotless 2/2.5 Islamorada home located at mile marker 85, away from the highway. Gated, with gorgeous pool and private beach from which to launch our kayaks and paddle boards. Whether you’re looking for a couples’ retreat or an exciting Keys experience with the family, this home is the answer!

For a laidback vacation, take a leisurely stroll among the “Bahamian conch style" homes tucked in among lush landscaping. Lounge pool-side with a good book. At sunset, relax with your favorite beverage on our private beach. Then dine at one of the fabulous nearby restaurants, many offering nightly entertainment.

Visit some of the local artist's shops, Robbie's gift shop, or the Rain Barrel. Explore the Windley Key State Geological Site, a former coral rock quarry, where fossils of sea creatures can be seen throughout the park. For a bit more history, stop by the 1935 Hurricane Memorial.
Angler's Reef is centrally located and perfect for exploring all of the Florida Keys! For a day trip, head down Route 1, over the Seven-mile Bridge to Key West and the Southernmost Point in the US.

If you're looking for an adventure packed vacation, start your day with a few laps of our temperature-controlled pool, mere steps from the house. Then paddle out to the sandbar on our complimentary paddle boards or kayaks. After lunch, scuba or snorkel the nearby coral reefs and shipwrecks, rich with underwater wonders. Dive near the popular Alligator Reef Lighthouse, which is visible and easily accessible by boat from Angler's Reef.
After a busy day, enjoy a glass of wine on one of our two private beaches. Play a board game on the back porch. Dim the pendant lights in the great room and turn on the fireplace as you cuddle up to watch your favorite movie after a busy day.

For a fee, dock your boat in our protected lagoon with direct, deep-channel access on the Atlantic. No Boat? Rent a boat or jet skis from one for the local marinas. Book a fishing, scuba, snorkeling charter or party boat at Robbie's.
Fishing is a must, since Islamorada is known as the "Sport Fishing Capital of the World". Whether flats-fishing in the back bays, deep-water fishing for big game, or fishing from our docks, you're sure to have a great experience.
Swim with the dolphins and learn about the local marine life at Theater of the Sea (1/2 mile from our home).

Just 2 miles north is Islamorada Founders Park at MM 87 Bayside. The park offers a shallow water beach, ball fields, playground, fishing jetty, driving cage, 3 paddle ball courts, bocce, tennis, a large playground, basketball courts, an exercise course with 18 stations, and a multi-purpose path within the 40-acre park.

Other municipal parks include the Islamorada Library Beach and Anne’s Beach.

Just pack a few clothes and your toothbrush and head down to the Florida Keys for the vacation of a lifetime in the comfort and luxury of Windley Cottage! See why people from all over the world get sand in their toes and return here again and again!

We offer flexible bed arrangements to meet your group's needs. Call 239-250-4135 for more information.

About the host

Hosted by Roger and Linda Robitaille

Host profile image
We both grew up in Western Massachusetts. For many years, we lived and worked in Naples. Now retired, our permanent residence is in Ave Maria, Florida, where we enjoy playing bocce, swimming, and being active all year long.

Why they chose this property

For years, we dreamed of owning a Keys home. The quaint, well-maintained conch homes and gorgeous landscaping in Anglers Reef captured our hearts immediately! "Windley Cottage" is the perfect location within the community - close to the pool and boat lagoon, yet farther from the road. With its "Keysie" charm and subtle, beachy decor, we were sold!

This was our first vacation rental property. Our other location is on Cape Cod in MA. To learn more about our "Seabury Sands" see the Vrbo listing 3757615.

We accept direct bookings to save our vacationers the Vrbo Service Fee.

What makes this property unique

Windley Cottage is in an architectural style known as a "Bahamian Conch Cottage" with high ceilings on both floors, porches, balconies, and metal roofing. The community is reminiscent of the classic structures of Key West. Although each of the homes has different individual details (dormers, gingerbread, hip or gabled rooflines, porch railing details), all are of the same basic style, providing the feeling of a village within the Village. A stroll through the community is a step back to simpler, more laid-back times (but with all the modern amenities).

Our particular home's pastel yellow painted clapboard siding is cheery and inviting. Large double-hung windows allow plenty of light into our home. Sitting on the back porch or on the guest room balcony marveling at the sunrise over the ocean or a sunset to the west is a treat.
The attention to details inside makes our home stand out among the others! It's so much more than a well-outfitted and maintained home! The delightfully decorated interior, includes some bead board and wainscoting, with a few custom beachy accents, complete the home's feel of a luxurious, tranquil accommodation. Mood lighting and an electric fireplace add to the romantic feel. Windley Cottage is truly special and we open our home to vacationers, like yourself, so that you too can enjoy it!
