About this property

Brand New / Totally Renovated Luxurious Home with POOL

***POOL Built in July 2019; Tropical landscaping installed 2020/2021 with great privacy***

Located in Islamorada the premier Key of the Florida Keys, which is known as the Sports Fishing Capital of the world. Islamorada is actually made up of five Keys and this beautiful 3-story home is located in Lower Matecumbe Key, which in my opinion is the best of all. On visiting the property, you'll first notice that it's located on a quiet road at mile marker 76.5 located just 5 houses down the canal from the beautiful turquoise waters of the Atlantic Ocean, and a straight shot to Alligator Reef Lighthouse. This is the perfect place to spend your next vacation with family and friends. This home was completely gutted and remodeled in June 2015 and everything is brand new. This is a non-smoking home. The remodeling and décor are very high-end and everything is tasteful, high quality, spotless, and again NEW! The furnishings, appliances, electronics and fine art were done with my family in mind as a true second home for us and not from a rental property perspective. This home includes many great pieces of art from world-famous Barry Barnett and world-renowned fine art photographer Alan S. Maltz who is known for his work in the Florida Keys and throughout the State. We appreciate the added touch and conveniences, which includes hi-speed WiFi (100+ Mbps download speed), updated Kitchen which includes all high-end (LG) stainless steel appliances, an abundance of kitchen gadgets and appliances from blenders to griddles to Riedel wine glasses, 2015 Samsung 55” LED Smart TV, Apple TV, NetFlix and many other niceties.

This home is only five houses away from the ocean, so you are literally ONE MINUTE away from the crystal clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The house also includes unlimited use of two Scupper Pro Ocean Kayaks to keep you active. We are walking distance (~ 1 mile) to Robbie's Marina, home to a large resident population of tarpon that you can watch and feed.

The home is truly the ultimate in tropical living. You will find the kitchen is fully equipped with all you need. Wood cabinetry, granite/marble countertops, LG stainless steel appliances with all the accessories including a Keurig coffee maker and a regular coffee maker and all the kitchen utensils and accessories that you need to provide gourmet meals, including a great selection of quality spices. A Smart Samsung TV, with Xfinity cable that includes over 140 channels, and if that is not enough the home also is equipped with an Apple TV and Netflix if you want to connect to your own account and download the movies and shows that you have been meaning to get to. I can assure you, that if TV and digital entertaining is what excites you, our hi-speed wi-fi and technology will suit even the most discriminating guest.

Vacationing over the years with another family, it always came down to “who gets the Master bedroom” (we switched off every other year), so one of the great things about this home is that it comes with TWO spacious master bedrooms and these are very large bedrooms.

The Master bedroom on the 3rd floor is furnished with a King size bed. It also has a dedicated working area for those individuals that need to mix a little work with play. This bedroom has its own dedicated A/C unit, so you don’ t have to worry about compromising the temperature in the rest of the house. The sliding doors in this bedroom open to the third-floor balcony/terrace, which will provide you with a glimpse of the ocean, a nice ocean breeze and some peace and quiet if you want to get away from others in your group. It’s a great location for that morning coffee and watching the beautiful sunrise every morning or my personal favorite laying on the lounge chair late at night and gazing at the stars. This bedroom also features a magnificent master bathroom with an extra-large shower which features a rain-drop showerhead as well as a hand-held shower.

The Master bedroom on the 2nd floor is also furnished with a King size bed This room is even larger than the MBR on the 3rd floor. It has direct access to a bathroom and the laundry room.

Both master bedrooms include ample drawer space for all of your clothes and it is of the same quality of what you will find at a Ritz-Carlton, including the mattresses.

The 3rd bedroom has three twin beds. Plus we have a sleeper sofa (queen-sized).

The family room, dining room, and kitchen open up to the tropical outdoors environment through 3 sets of sliding glass doors. This set of expansive sliding glass doors opens up to the veranda where you can sit and soak in what is going on downstairs or wave at the boats going by. Throughout the entire 2nd floor and 3rd floor is hardwood floors. The 1st floor is marble throughout. Every window, door, and sliding glass door in this house is hurricane impact, which is great for protecting the home from a storm but does a superb job in making this home super quiet. Also, every window on the 2nd and 3rd floor, have custom-made plantation shutters that do an amazing job in setting that island feel and keeping the temperature in the home cool.

For the Fisherman, a stay at our location puts you four houses from the Atlantic Ocean, but backwater access is just minutes via Indian Key Channel or world famous fishing channels number #2 or #5. This home includes 90 feet of dockage on the canal coming straight from the ocean which includes an additional 30-foot cut-in slip, making it a great place for any boat. This private dock provides running water and a large (6-foot) custom-made fish-cleaning station. You will also find in the garage a deep freezer for storing an ample supply of your bait, so you don’t have to make those daily trips to the local bait store or marina. Located nearby (very close) is a local public boat ramp that is free to use as well. With this effortless access to the open ocean, and an abundance of fishing and tackle shops, such as Bud and Mary’s Marina, World Wide Sportsman (aka BassPro), Sandy Cove, Calusa Cover Marina, and more, this location will satisfy fishers of all skill levels.

For rest and relaxation, the outside patio on the 1st and 2nd floor offers a comforting open space complete with many resort-like lounge chairs, tables and chairs, and a stainless steel Weber grill with side burner. The home also comes with two beach cruiser (bikes) for those that enjoy a little sightseeing on two wheels. There are many restaurants within three miles to visit by boat, car, or bike.

We know that you will truly enjoy our home and all the extra features that it provides. We include paper towels, soap, shampoo, dish-washing liquid, laundry detergent, sugar, spices, and much more. We look forward to sharing our home with you very soon. I will be waiting for your call/email to tell you even more about the house and the area. Also, if you are looking for recommendations on things to do or places to eat, I will email you my personal guide to the Keys. I will share this guide with you regardless of whether you stay at our home or not.

Everything You Need!

This property was exactly as identified in the VRBO description. Bedrooms were very comfortable, living and dining rooms were large with room for our guests to join us for dinner. The hosts provide absolutely everything you need—from kitchen gadgets to soap, shampoo, and most anything else you might need. The best part of the property was the pool that was heated perfectly each day depending on the current weather. We enjoyed watching the manatees in the canal and the other wildlife in and around the water. The host was very gracious and responded quickly to our questions. We enjoyed the property and hope to be able to return one day (hopefully next time WITHOUT a broken neck!)

Nice house and beautiful area

All through the process of booking our two month stay along with arrival was an excellent experience. The owners John and Robin went above an beyond to welcome us along with giving us many recommendations which is listed in a book upon arrival. The house is on a canal that is about 5 houses down from the ocean. We were able to take out kayaks and paddle boards from their dock to the ocean. At the house dock the manatees come and visit weekly and we caught 7 red snapper fish from their dock. We stayed from February to end of March and the weather was beautiful. I highly recommend this house and all its amenities. Vicki

Escaping the cold!

The home is both well appointed and clean. The pool is perfect for cooling off and offers great shade in the afternoons. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, grill was a nice touch. The beds were very comfortable and the living room has plenty of comfortable seating. The porch off the kitchen is a great spot for evening cocktail. The dock was perfect for a 28 foot boat. Overall great spot and fairly close to everything! We hope to rent here again!

Amazing Vacation

My husband and I vacationed here with our two kids and our friends and their kids. It was an amazing place to stay! Close to island fun and the location of the house was on a quiet street where you could easily relax. Enough room for us to spread out and the pool was a hit with our kids! We will definitely be back. The hosts were amazing reaching out to us during our stay to make sure everything was going well! Highly recommend this amazing island retreat for your keys vacation!

Incredible Home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. It’s quite large. Plenty of room for our group of 6. I liked the location of the home. Lower Matecumbe Key isn’t as busy as other keys and we liked that. The landscaping around the home was incredible. I also enjoyed that the pool was shaded in the afternoon. The sun is so intense that you could enjoy the sun all late morning/early afternoon but didn’t have to worry about getting burned all afternoon or having to reapply sunscreen. Like other reviewers we thought the beds were very comfortable. There were nice fishing poles in the garage. Pool noodles, dive sticks, water ball, air pump too. We had a manatee come for a visit. You can catch small snappers in the canal. I would definitely rent this house again!

Lovely House, Great for 2 Couples or Family

Pros: Beautiful house, best on the street. Amazing, Incredibly responsive hosts -- immediately addressed problems (even after one issue went away, they still sent someone to be sure) and super communication. Best stocked house EVER. Not only everything we could need or want but also tons of spices, sugar, coffee etc. even some vodka -- great "toys" too (bikes and kayaks even though we didn't use) Great wifi Easy canal in & out of ocean (we rented a boat for our stay and it was SO EASY) Obviously recently renovated and beautiful bathrooms / hard wood floors Quiet -- when many houses in Islamorada are closer to main highway and traffic noise Great outdoor spaces, upstairs coffee deck, main level cocktails deck, downstairs outside eating comfortably fit larger group for daytime hanging / eating / etc EXCEPT for sleeping (more on that below) Perfect location to great restaurants and bars and many options -- this in our opinion is the best section of Islamorada and the best part of the Keys! And owners gave GREAT recommendations! Fresh lobster down the street! Occasional Manatee off the dock! Cons / Really Wish We'd Known or someone else had mentioned to us: Third downstairs "bedroom" really only suitable for kids in our opinion. It has three twin beds but no bathroom -- so when we had two middle-aged couples to visit, one couple lived like kings in the gorgeous main floor "second master bedroom", the other couple drew the short straw in the lower level (they called it the dungeon) where they had to make their way upstairs in the middle of the night to pee. We mistakenly thought both guest bedrooms were somehow next to one another with a shared bathroom between them (description didn't clarify no bathroom for the third guest bedroom / on a different floor). If you have kids and/or only two adult couples staying then you are set!! Three couples were an issue (for us). No door to 3rd floor upstairs master made it rather loud upstairs as a result. Remote working, one of us had to go to the lower level and the other on top level for Zoom calls because you can hear everything on top floor without a door to close. No sun on pool area as someone else in reviews noted, but we were there to work, so not a big deal. Few other minor issues but immediately resolved. House overall was lovely and we'd recommend for a couple or family with kids who can bunk in lower level. Thanks!!

Fantastic Experience

We stayed in John & Robin's wonderful home the first week of January and we highly recommend it. We have stayed in vacation rentals for about 15 years now in the US and elsewhere, and we honestly felt that this was our best experience yet. The home is tastefully decorated, extremely comfortable, has modern appointments while maintaining it's Florida beach home charm, and has everything you need to enjoy your stay completely. John and Robin were easy to reach and very friendly. They had helpful recommendations about the house and the area and answered our questions almost immediately. They were obviously interested in making sure we enjoyed our stay to the fullest. John provided us with all kinds of recommendations on things to do in the Keys, and in Miami. The home sits on a channel and a lovely, safe and quiet street, about a half block from the ocean. The pool is brand new, fairly large and heated. Beds are very comfortable, and with living space on three levels, it offers a lot of privacy if you need it. We loved the spacious balconies overlooking the channel and pool, with Adirondack chairs to relax in. We also LOVED the fab porch swing chair on the pool level. There was even a commercial ice machine in the garage! The owners offered three kayaks, bikes, and other toys to enjoy with family or friends. We used the kayaks one day and we were out on the ocean in two minutes - beautiful! The home was spotless, and the kitchen well appointed with all we needed to cook and enjoy dinner on the patio by the pool. There are fish markets galore in the area, so on a number of days we picked up fresh fish or seafood and cooked at the house. The patio had very comfortable seating and tables, along with a gas grill that we used one night. All of the furnishings, inside and out, were high quality. Manatees swam up to the pier on a couple of occasions while we were there. We enjoyed walks in the early evenings as there is a nice long trail about a block away. Stores and restaurants are minutes away, including a couple of nice venues where you can have cocktails and watch the sunset from the beach. We hated leaving and would return to this amazing home in a heartbeat!

Beautiful, clean, excellent spot. Short paddle down canal to ocean. Manatees in canal every day. Nice place to dock boat. Nice pool. Very helpful owners. Really felt like home away from home. Only complaint is not enough sun at pool — prob b/c time of year — but I guess you can’t move the sun!

I do not typically leave reviews, but I knew I no had to give credit for this place! Amazing location, warm pool, manatees in the canal, commercial ice machine in the garage, super comfy beds, and any type of kitchen utensil or type of entertainment you could want! The restaurant recommendations they gave were perfect. The owners were in touch with us throughout our stay, ensuring everything was going well. I have never experienced that before! It was an excellent personalized touch that made us feel at home and like the owners really cared about our stay as if we were their close friends. We will be back!
