About this property

Waterfront, dock, easy ocean access, heated pool, walk to beach! Great location!

One room with a king sized bed and the other has a queen sized bed – both with cool comfort memory foam mattresses. Pull-out queen sized sofa and twin love seats add additional sleeping options. Bathrooms lined in elegant tile with glass block showers. The well-stocked chef’s kitchen has all stainless appliances (including fridge with ice maker) with an eat-in breakfast bar and everything you need, from toaster oven to blender, to feel at home. The skylight adds openness and light to the entire space. The screened-in patio with fan has a dining table for 6 and leads directly to the tropical and private waterfront back yard and your own heated pool! Outdoor shower is great for quick cool off or rinsing gear and toys. Fish off the private dock, keep bait or fish in the outdoor freezer, grill your fish (and anything else) on the Weber grill, and bring or rent a boat, as there is ample dock space and a community boat ramp at the end of the street. Separate laundry room with full-size high efficiency washer and dryer. It is one half of a duplex (in a previous life these were a botel - boat up motel), but it is more like a single-family home, as the only thing shared is a wall - you have a private driveway, private pool, and it is all very private, with the backyard fully fenced.

Just 4 houses away from complete open water ocean access – paddle board, kayak and more! House is walking distance to groceries, pharmacy, stores, movie theater and other shops and restaurants, yet nestled in a quiet neighborhood – AND less than a mile to the Sombrero Beach (a rarity in the Keys!), the best beach and park in the area! The park is just beautiful – white sand blue water beach, covered pavilion, bathrooms and showers, playground, sand volleyball courts and individual gazebos with seating and BBQ grills. Park and beach are pet friendly. Kayak trips run daily from the park and there is outdoor yoga multiple times weekly too. House is equipped with 4 bikes, including locks, lights and helmets; a tandem kayak; fishing gear; beach/pool toys and more. Rentals of various other items are nearby and many deliver. Plus, you're only about an hour to Key West and all it has to do, and just 45 minutes from all the fun in Islamorada!

Please note that boats (personal or rental) are welcome, with prior approval and a $100 dockage fee. Please inquire at time of booking if you plan to bring or rent a boat.

About the host

Hosted by Sascha

Host profile image
Originally from North Carolina, now living in New Orleans most of the time, but get down to the Keys as much as possible.

Why they chose this property

After coming to the Keys regularly for years, we finally decided it just made sense to own something there. And once we saw this place, we knew it was the one. There is just no place connected to the mainland U.S. like the Keys - you have to experience it yourself to understand.

What makes this property unique

This home just had the perfect mix of everything - superb location (close to the beach, close to shopping and other amenities), incredible views and incredible attention to every little detail. We love to share our little slice of paradise with others when we're not there.
