About this property

Stay where you play, On the water w/Boat dock & Trailer parking. Pet friendly!


Stay where you play.

The spacious newly refreshed two bedroom vacation rentals are ideal for fishermen and families or anyone wanting to get away. You can bring your own boat or rent one of ours. All of our rentals come with a dock for your boat. Our accommodations are fully furnished and are supplied with linens and towels.

Sunset from the patio or out on the dock are spectacular. Look for the famous green flash right as the sun makes its final dip into the water for the night.

The marina basin is full of sea life. We regularly see tarpons, tropical fishes, snappers, lobsters, and manatees. As well as , a variety of sea birds.

Enjoy our wonderful vacation rental. The advantages of staying with us are, your boat slip is right out your back door and the rental is on the same property as the marina. Take advantage of the bait and tackle shop where we provide up to date fishing reports and locations. If you did not bring your own boat, rent one from us.

Our location gives easy access to the Atlantic ocean and the Florida Bay. Florida deep-sea fishing is great fun when the dolphin (Mahi Mahi) start running in May. The sailfish are here in January and the mackerel and wahoo too. Tarpon fishing is awesome!

Great location and property

Our host was very welcoming and friendly, and the accommodations were as represented on VRBO. The location was fantastic, we were able to travel easily to Key West and other things we wanted to see. Enough space to comfortably house 2 adults and 2 teens. We would definitely book in again on our next trip to the Keys.

Great get away!

My husband and I wanted quiet waterfront get away in the Florida Keys. Very clean and perfect location. The owners couldn't have been nicer. We had planned on renting one of the Marina's boats but it was a bit choppy for us. We would highly recommend staying here.

Keys secret get away

The apartment was clean. The coffee machine worked & there was just enough kitchen ware that we managed to save lots of $$$ cooking ourselves - so we could enjoy other activities. The Staff assisted us whenever we needed something and they left us alone the rest of the time. This place is very secluded - great for a quiet get away.

Peaceful location with amenities nearby

We arrived here during the onset of Tropical Storm Nicole, and the skies were blustery and equally beautiful. The unit was spotless, spacious and well equipped. The back door offered a beautiful view of the Gulf of Mexico and a soft breeze. The venue is close enough to civilization for the sake of amenities, yet detracted enough that one can enjoy an unobstructed view of the stars at night. Despite the twist of fate that the weather threw at us, we had a fantastic time, and we wouldn't hesitate to book here again.

Would have been a great place to stay if there were so many rules.

Seems like we were there to accommodate them and not them to accommodate us as their guest. Too many rules not enough privacy and the fact that at night they block the road so you have to move barricades to get to the parking area is just ubsurd!

Response from VrboOwner on 17 July 2023
Sorry you felt that way, we block the entrance at night so you have privacy. many of the locations in the keys do the same thing. My rules are listed on the site on VRBO. The 3 main rules are common curiosity like, stay out of the neighbors yard,.which seems to be an issue. And stay out of the marina boat yard. And thirdly no fishing in the marina, we do that to preserve the sea-life for everyone’s pleasure. Most people enjoy watching the sea-life. I did not interact with you while you where here except to say good day and make Sure everything was ok for you. After 5:00 ,the place is very quiet and on Tuesday it was like you had the place to yourself.

Great weekend!

We enjoyed our stay at Sea Bird Marina! There was easy access to launch and store our boat. The marina provided safe and secure storage for our boat trailer during the stay. The launching/docking of our boat and the trailer storage were included in the room rate. The room was as advertised. It was cozy and comfortable. The room highlight was the convenience of being right next to the boat dock, with our boat in sight. The marina staff provided great local insight and helpful information. The marina had easy access to basic supplies like ice, live/frozen bait, immediate care items. A big thanks to Lynne and her family for making us feel welcome.
