About this property

Sweaping Waterfront Views, 10 Minutes From Key West

Welcome to Pasa Tiempo :-)

Note: For high season, December-March MINIMUM rental period is 58 days.

Why settle for a canal view of your neighbors’ deck party when you can drink in the peaceful open water? Launch your boat docked out back and head to the backwater - or dive / fish the Atlantic. Greet the day in the huge master suite facing the open water and relish the 3-headed rain shower. All areas in the home are individually climate controlled with the Mitsubishi ductless system. ALL the pictures are FROM THE HOUSE - not local scenery you have to walk to enjoy.

Our home is an "open concept" designed for you to soak in the water views and let the stress of the world roll away. Our guests tell us the pictures do not come close to describing the island experience with the panoramic "tree-house" style water views.

Tastefully decorated with original local art and many "international" additions we gathered on our travels, Including handmade glass fish from the Ukraine, Pendant's from Murano Italy and light fixtures from Thailand. This "Keys Oasis" takes advantage of a reverse floor plan where the main living area is on the top floor and the master and guest bedrooms are on their own floor. Both suites have their own bathroom.

Completed in 2015, the home was a labor of love for us. Attention to every detail was considered in integrating this unique home with the environment. There is a dock in the “backyard” and some guests snorkel right behind the house. This is "skinny water" and / or skiff country, perfect for Kayaking (2 are provided) or Paddle-boarding (not provided). Just a few minutes to the back-country or the lesser known reefs on the Atlantic side where there is great deep sea fishing, snorkeling or spearfishing. You can splash a small boat right here or take advantage of several larger ramps nearby.

Please note, the home has very high balconies with cable railings overlooking the water. This deck system enhances the water view but unfortunately it makes the home unsuitable for smaller children. Please note: the home may be difficult for the elderly due to stairs, railings and overhangs. One will need to take SPECIAL CARE with anyone needing extra attention.

For December to March, minimum rental period is 58 days, the rest of the year the minimum period is 28 days. PLEASE: don’t waste time asking about rentals for less than 28 days. County ordnances WILL NOT ALLOW ANY NON-HOTEL rentals for less than 28 days.

TV NOTE: There are two smart TVs. A 60" in the main living area and a 40" in the bedroom. Since the Internet is very fast, streaming to your account is never a problem. Most people use their own streaming service but if you do not have a streaming service let us know and we will activate YouTubeTV at no charge.

Sorry - NO SMOKING or Vaping ALLOWED. Any evidence of the use of these products will result in the loss of deposit.

NOTE ON PETS: We cater to a number of family and other hyper allergic individuals. We only use natural, low odor cleaning supplies. For this reason we cannot consider any animals in the home as it puts our family and other guests at risk.

COVID-19 UPDATE. We are formers owners of a commercial cleaning company. All surfaces and bedding are sanitized and cleaned with a multi-spectrum anti viral cleaner between guests.

Please include the exact number and ages of anyone that will be staying. We look forward to sharing our little piece of paradise!

Near the Action but not in it :-)

Beautiful home with stunning sunset views. The wrap around decks provided views of the entire waterfront. This house had everything we needed for a fantastic month in the keys. The kitchen was a joy to prepare our own "catch of the day." The beds were comfortable. We kayaked in the mornings and enjoyed easy access to Key West proper for all activities. The neighborhood is quiet. Best of both worlds!

Very nice!

Thought the house was very nice, ocean right outside the back door of the house. Drive to store, or any place to eat was about 15-25 min drive, but was doable.

Lovely stay in the Lower Keys

Home was just as described, great location for exploring the Lower Keys, still close enough to enjoy Duval St. and Key West yet a quiet retreat from the madness. Larry and Wendy were great to work with, quick and easy communication, and accommodating to our travel plans. It is a very clean, comfortable home with beautiful views. Well stocked with the basics and a full kitchen for the nights we felt like eating in. Our group enjoyed the kayaks and access to the water. One suggestion from the group was that bicycles would have been nice to explore the neighborhood. The houses are close together in the neighborhood, yet the home felt private. There were sounds of construction throughout the stay from neighboring homes, but to be expected during the ongoing recovery. Did not impact our stay significantly, but could be bothersome to some visitors. Overall, we had a wonderful stay at Pasa Tiempo and would be very happy to stay again if we require the same arrangements in the future! (Great for 2 couples and a 5th)

The Best of Both Worlds!!

Pasa Tiempo is absolutely the perfect Keys getaway! It offers the ideal combination of peaceful sunsets over the water and ready access to the excitement of Key West! This was our 4th Keys vacation rental in the past 5 years, and Pasa Tiempo is exactly what my wife and I have been searching for. It is new, stylish, comfortable, and the views are fantastic from virtually any location in the home. We visited with another couple this year, and the guest rooms are private with their own baths while the shared living/kitchen area is bright and spacious. The beds and furniture are all like new and very comfortable, while the kitchen appliances were all in great working order with an abundance of cookware, utensils and place settings available. We enjoyed home prepared meals and drinks some evenings, but also made the quick 15 minute drive into Key West to eat out and enjoy the nightlife. Larry and Wendy were great to work with throughout the process communicating frequently, offering great advice and clear instructions for the use of the home. The posted pictures very accurately represent all aspects of the home, though they can't do justice to the spaciousness of the living area or the beautiful views. After searching up and down the Keys for our ideal location, we plan to make Pasa Tiempo our annual destination!

About the host

Hosted by Lawrence or Wendy

Host profile image
After years of searching for the right spot we finally found the perfect lot to construct our dream vacation home. We love Key West and crave everything about the water. When we tear away from our favorite oceanfront home will still find ourselves vacationing by the sea. We’ve been blessed with VRBO friends around the world and are excited about sharing this rare property with select folks in the VRBO community

Why they chose this property

West facing (i.e. sunset) open water views are extremely rare in the keys, but it was at the top of our list. We looked at property for 5 years and after walking on this little slice of paradise we immediately fell in love with the views. Our offer was accepted that day and we immediately began a 3 year custom building project.

What makes this property unique

Just a note, this property is all about enjoying the beauty of the area. We have high speed (500mb/sec) Internet and no cable but other than a 60" flatscreen in the great room and a "smart tv" in the master, there are no other TV's. Of course you can download a movie , or bring your Roku / Chromecast / Apple device - or just use your computer anywhere on the property (or in a provided hammock by the water). Once a rental is confirmed we have interactive maps of local places, tips and tricks we share with our limited guests.

Also Note: We highly recommend a car for this area.
