About this property

La Isla Del Sueño - Your Private Island of Dreams

Welcome to your Island of Dreams!

This beautiful, spacious home located on its own peninsula has everything you will need for a five star stay.

This dream home is designed to comfortably accommodate 2 families or 4 couples. The second floor has a symmetrical design that begins with the Great Room at the center of the home. On each side of the Great Room you will find an oversized master suite with private bath, walk-in closet, and a private entry to the rear patio. In addition to the master suites on each side of the house, you will also enjoy a spacious queen bedroom, full size closet, and access to a seperate large full bathroom. With comfort as the ultimate goal, there are three independent air conditioners for each section to allow for individualized comfort (East, West, and Center rooms).

Wrap-around windows grace the granite countertop kitchen that is not only comfortable and convenient to use, but is fully equipped with all the modern amenities and gorgeous views.

Occasionally, dolphin and manatees have used the basin as their playground. Enjoy nature all around you, with the conveniences of modern living.

Experience beautiful sunrises and sunsets on the wrap-around porch overlooking the basin, and enjoy your favorite breakfast or cocktail. Cool breezes surround you whether you're relaxing in the beach, pool, tiki hut, or floating in the salt water basin. Take a stroll along the 500+ feet of concrete dock and observe the serenity of the sea life surrounding the peninsula.

Bring your boat and in just minutes you are ocean bound and can enjoy fishing, swimming, shelling, or just cruising around Tavernier Key. Your boat can be located just steps from the home and ready to go whenever you are. The size of the property enables you to park your boat trailer comfortably and conveniently inside the gated property, as well as your vehicles.

La Isla del Sueño is our Island of Dreams - let it be yours as well.

Private resort

We just returned from a month stay at this beautiful property. It is better than the photos! There is plenty of space and it feels like you have a private resort. The house is clean and comfortable. The spacious grounds are beautiful! We enjoyed the pool, kayaking, fishing and relaxing on the comfortable decks. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. The location is convenient. Be sure to check out key largo fisheries market for fresh fish to cook; We had some great meals out on the deck. I would highly recommend this property! We hope to be back again soon!

Amazing house and fabulous hospitality!

This house is beautiful and spacious. The covered porches were perfect for morning coffee and we spent hours in the pool each day. Gloria was super and met us when we arrived to show us around. This was the most relaxing vacation I’ve ever had and I hope we get to return next year!!!

The Best By Far

My family and I travel allot. We have been coming to the Keys for many of years. We have stayed in allot of hotels and rentals. La Isla Del Sueno is now the only place for us. When we rented this property on the Web from HomeAway it looked like a very nice place from the photos. When went there Gloria met us at the front of the property. She showed us all around and gave us all the information we needed to have a good stay. Her son Carlos was there also to help if need. The property was much much more then the photos showed. the place was gorgeous. It had a lot more then stated on line. You can stay on the property and not leave, it had everything you need to just relax and enjoy. You will love Gloria. She will help you and is very easy to deal with. We say go there try it "you will be back".

Amazing!

Once again, our group of 8 had an amazing time in Gloria's beautiful house. Everything is spotless and spruced up after last year's hurricane. This is our 4th year of staying here and while we totally recommend her home, we like to keep it a secret as our own bit of paradise! Seriously, you won't find a better place in the Keys.

Excellent Property and Amenities.Clean and well maintained.

The home was comfortable and well equipped for fun and comfort. Carlos met us on arrival and showed us around, orienting us to all the features. He was even available to answer questions throughout our stay. By far the best house we have stayed at in our visits to The Keys.

2nd stay as wonderful as the first!

Gloria maintains this property with great pride. Our group of eight family members and friends enjoy the spacious rooms and wonderful private property with a private pool. Close to everything we need. We only ate out twice and actually enjoyed our home cooked meals better. Will return again in the future. Thank you Gloria for another awesome vacation!

The most beautiful, peaceful & relaxing island paradise. Well named / The Island of Dreams!

We have stayed in many vacation homes, all very expensive and beautiful homes. However we must say that this vacation home is the nicest home we have ever stayed at. Truly beautiful, the house and the grounds (almost an acre) were spotless not even a leaf or palm branch on the grounds. The house was spotless and so beautifully furnished with such a wonderful kitchen all new top quality appliances and every cooking pot or pan you could ask for, the best quality you could get. dining area & family area very comfortable. One of the best parts of the house is that all 4 bedroom suites are on the same floor. 2 king size suites & 2 queen size suites , all with their own bathroom. Very comfy beds in each bedroom. The deck furniture extremely comfortable, all very high quality. Table for outside dinning. The loungers by the pool very comfortable and also of very high quality. The pool was very enjoyable, a little chilly for the first week of March 2018. We enjoyed the Tiki Hut, hamocks, bar & cooking area, also hook & ring simple game. Believe me not as easy as it sounds. Small things like this made our stay so relaxing , peaceful & enjoyable. We have booked next year in March 2019. Excellent value for such a amazing & ideal place to runaway to. We were greeted by Gloria, she is the owner & the nicest lady wanted to make sure everything was alright. Showed us around the grounds, where the laundry was, also where the outside bathroom & shower was, also around the grounds. Such a amazing outside area, everything (Gloria's must have beach area) had to have, the pool, the benches around the property facing all of the waterways, the Tiki Hut we must admit, Gloria thought of just about everything. Pictures do not do justice to this beautiful vacation home. Once you come we guarantee you will return. Just to add fantastic blender & Huge Ice Machine. Needless to say both were well used. Almost forgot, we enjoyed the kayaks, used them quite alot, we also really enjoyed seeing the manatees at the dock. Perfect vacation in every way, just too short. Bill, Mary Lou, Kathy Fred, Bryan & Nancy See you next March.

Truly PARADISE!

This is a little slice of heaven on earth!! There isn't much I can add to the previous raving reviews and comments. Gloria thought of everything when this property was built and it is truly your own private island. It is even more beautiful than the pictures. We will be enjoying La Isla Del Sueno again for a vacation!!

Great House

We rented another, more expensive, house in the keys last year- and this one was so much more enjoyable. It is very obvious that the owners take great pride in the home. We used the kayaks almost every day and saw manatees in the canal. This was the first time that we have rented a house where each bedroom had it's own bathroom and it was great! We loved having the small bathroom near the tiki bar too. Gloria's son Carlos was on site almost every day, and was very helpful any time that we had questions. The only negative was that the pool wasn't balanced when we arrived so there was some algae and we had to stay out of the pool for about a day during the trip.

Outstanding!

We could not have been more happy & impressed with both the property, house & Gloria! The house was immaculately clean and well-stocked with all the necessary essentials and was beyond beautiful. The property was amazing with the incredible pool, views, kayaks, hamock and the tiki bar was the perfect place to enjoy dinner overlooking the water. We will definitely book this location again!

About the host

Hosted by Gloria Martinez

Host profile image
We purchased the property in 1998 and completed our home in 2007. We enjoyed it tremendously for a year or so and then wished to share this wonderful experience with others. We have always loved the sun, water, and ocean breezes and we find this everytime we stay in our home.

Why they chose this property

We built our home to enjoy the view and surroundings. We also found that it suits all of our tentants well. We love the sun and surf and have always wanted to live in the Florida Keys again. The location of the property and home is central to fishing, diving, and just cruising around by boat or car. The distance from Miami Intl Airport is a comfortable driving time (1 1/2 hrs), as well as going south to visit Key West(2 hrs).

What makes this property unique

I love the fact that grocery shopping and some simple amenneties are just around the corner. With a grocery store less than 2 miles away, picking up groceries is very simple. The fact that jumping on the boat and cruising down the canal to open water within 5 minutes is exceptional. Tavernier Key, just outside the light channel marker, is a great place to just relax, walk the sandbar, or watch the sun go down over the keys.
