About this property

OCEAN VIEW ANGLERS REEF - POOL, DOCK, BEACH. Walk or Bike to local food + bars

***June 2022 - Installed a new AC with Germicidal UV light air purifier, which improves air quality by sterilizing mold, bacteria, allergens and viruses: and of course, our housekeeping staff complies with the latest cleaning and disinfecting CDC guidelines. ***

ANGLERS REEF is a quiet oceanfront community of Key West inspired homes, streets, and walking paths, that wind through a quaint village-style retreat. Located at Mile Marker 85 by Theater of the Sea, Windley Key Geographical Site, Snake Creek Marina & some of the best bars and restaurants in Islamorada.

GREAT LOCATION
The house is in a quiet section of the community, away from the highway and just 2 homes from the ocean. Our porches are shaded and face a tree-lined yard with a view of the ocean.

OCEANFRONT RESORT-STYLE SWIMMING POOL
The pool is both heated & chilled so that it is always a perfect 87 degrees.

TWO PRIVATE SANDY BEACHES
The South Beach has a shoreline & ocean access. A tandem kayak sits on the beach for your use, (additional kayak, paddleboards, jet ski & boat rentals are available close by and available for drop-off to your beach or dock).

The North Beach, a white sandy beach, is located just steps from the house.

DEEP WATER MARINA
Our boat slip, with direct ocean access, is available for rent and is also just steps away from the house. But whether or not you use our slip, the marina is part of the community and enjoyed by all guests.

OUR HOUSE
Built in 2007, this home, is bright and cheery with tile floors, high ceilings, and many large windows. It is newly decorated for the Keys and surrounded by lush tropical landscaping.
The main floor has an open plan with, tile floors, granite counters, stainless appliances, flat screen TV w/DVD players, cable with ALL PREMIUM CHANNELS, A DVR, Fast WiFi & a SONOS wireless speaker system.

There are 2 bedroom suites with flat screen TV’s and private baths located on the 2nd floor. Both baths have frameless glass showers and granite vanities. Rear bedroom has an ocean view and a private porch.

ISLAMORADA
Parks in Islamorada, Village of Islands: Just 2 miles north is Islamorada Founders Park at MM 87 Bayside, which offers activity or relaxation for the whole family. An Olympic-sized pool with diving area, a shallow water beach, water sports rentals, ball fields, fishing jetty, bocce, tennis and basketball courts, vita course with 18 exercise stations, multi-purpose path, skate park and dog park all are within the 40-acre park. Fees may apply. Village municipal parks also include the Islamorada Library Beach and Anne’s Beach. There is the Windley Key State Geological Site, a state park, at the site of a former coral rock quarry. In addition to shady walks through unique foliage, fossils of sea creatures can be seen throughout the park. A free guidebook is available at the visitors center for use during your stay in the park. Islamorada also offers an 18-mile bicycle path that extends the length of the Village.

Scuba/Snorkel!: Islamorada, long recognized as the 'Sport Fishing Capital of the World,' is now an icon among sport divers for a similar reason: a massive population of tropical marine life. High-profile coral heads and broad ledges shelter huge congregates of French grunt and goat fish, while regal queen angelfish casually graze amid the reef recesses. Friendly green moray eels swim freely along the spur-and-groove channels, and reclusive nurse sharks lurk beneath the overhangs. Islamorada offers a wide variety of shallow coral reefs, mini walls, shipwrecks, and even an underwater habitat for scientific research, the Aquarius. To learn more about Islamorada or any other manner of local lore, stop by the Chamber of Commerce at MM 82.5.

Great Home, Great Host, Great Community

This home had all the amenities you could expect and them some. It has 2 comfortable bedrooms, each with its own bathrooms. It has relaxing balconies on the first and second levels and along with an open floorplan with the kitchen and living area.

Great visit to the Florida Keys!

This is a very nice property in the private Angler’s Reef development on Islamorada. Great location in the Keys. We loved the pool and access to the beach and water. We had a great time at the property and as a base of operations to explore the Keys. Can’t say enough about the landlord, Craig. He provided great information on what to do and see. He was responsive our entire stay. We would absolutely rent this property again on a return trip to the Keys.

Great Stay!

The accommodations were more than we had ever anticipated! It is a beautiful home with everything you would ever need for a weeks stay or even more. If I had to speak on anything negative, it would’ve been the construction that was going on route 1 all night with machinery And hog heaven, which is an all night bar that closes at 4 AM. Sometimes the music was very very loud. & resonated to the condo. We really and truly enjoyed our stay in spite of those two inconveniences. The home is absolutely appointed so beautifully and we needed nothing! The balconies on both floor offered opportunities for us to have early morning coffee and listen to the wildlife and birds that were abundant. There is a boat slip at our disposal and we would most definitely think about using that. should we stay in the future as it is extremely convenient to the unit. in addition, the hosts were more than accommodating with suggestions on things to do places to eat. They were always available should we have needed anything or questions.We would go back there definitely.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. It was clean, tastefully decorated and comfortable. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the 2 beaches and pool are so nice and the view is amazing! The location is excellent also for dining and easy ride to the rest of the keys. A great place we hope to return to!

Truly an Islamorada gem

This property is AMAZING! Communication with owner was fantastic. He provided quick responses to questions and was a wonderful resource for local restaurants and activities in the area. The house and neighborhood were beyond perfect, with the house conveniently located near so many great local restaurants that were within a safe walking distance (so you can leave the car at home and enjoy the delicious local cuisine and fun happy hours). The house was very well stocked (especially the kitchen), incredibly clean, with plenty of towels and pool/beach supplies provided. The ocean views from the porch were incredible. We absolutely loved the oceanfront heated community pool, which was heated to the perfect temperature and had picture perfect ocean views. There was plenty of seating and umbrellas at the pool, and the pool bathrooms were kept incredibly clean throughout our stay. The neighbors in the community were friendly, the neighborhood was peaceful, and the location provided the perfect backdrop for our family trip. We also loved the updated bathrooms and tech in the house, with premium cable and WiFi (signal was strong and consistent). The beds were extremely comfortable, which is important. Even the sofa and dining room table chairs were comfortable for family gatherings. With many rental choices in the area, this was our favorite rental house and location in the Keys by far. We definitely plan to rent here again for our next trip to the Keys.

Beautiful Escape in the Keys

My family, including a 5- and 3-year old, had a perfect stay at this Angler’s Reef unit for fall break. The home was clean, comfortable, and well equipped for every activity - cooking, pool/beach toys, beach chairs, a cooler, fishing rods, games, and plenty of seating both inside and outside. Mimosas and coffee on the back deck were a highlight of the trip. The pool and private beach were both a dream with stunning views. The unit is also within walking distance to a few restaurants and many more are close by car. Several attractions are also nearby, like Theater of the Sea, Windley Key Fossil State Geological Park, charters at IslaMarina, and the Rain Barrel shops. We hope to be back next year!

Review of Anglers Reef

The property was very nice and clean and centrally located to where we wanted to be. Pool was nice and clean and the boat dockage was nice and well utilized. Would recommend for a nice relaxing vacation. There are charters close if fishing is on your list of things to do. Local dining spots were very good. Host is very responsive and has helpful guides with local spots. Thank You Craig.

Craig property was absolutely perfect for us. The townhome is beautiful and extremely well appointed with all the conveniences that you could hope for. Close proximity to the pool as well as the boat slip. My family found the property super clean with great water pressure and comfortable beds. He was quick and easy to respond, a great communicator and even thought of a gift basket, full of snacks and suntan lotion. We are already planning on booking again for next year. If I could give him six stars I would!

Fabulous

Such a beautiful week in Angler's Reef and the location was perfect! We rented a boat since we had the slip available to us and we took advantage of the relaxing pool whenever we had the chance. It was a bit too windy during our stay for the kayaks and paddle boards, but we took Craig's advice and rented bicycles for a few days, which were dropped off and picked up right at our place. The stay was comfortable and homey and Craig gave us plenty of information on local places to visit. The welcome basket was a great touch and we made pina coladas from the rum - thank you for a lovely vacation we'd love to do it again!

About the host

Hosted by Craig Drucker

Host profile image
My wife and I both grew up in New York by the ocean. She is a Rockaway girl, I'm from Atlantic Beach. Both of us were born with "sand in our shoes." We traveled to Miami on our wedding night and have been living there for over 30 years. We recently purchased this home and look forward to spending our vacation time in this paradise. We plan to continually update our home and continue the great service that the prior owner provided to vacationers.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I had been looking to purchase a vacation home in the keys for almost 2 years before we came upon Anglers Reef in Islamorada. This property, finally, had everything we dreamed of; beach, boat dock, resort pool, security, an ocean view, quiet location and walking distance to restaurants and bars. On top of all that, the house is in a quant Key West style community in the middle of Islamorada.

What makes this property unique

Our house has been a popular unit in the rental program since 2010. One of the reasons we purchased this home is that we were very impressed with the great reviews (30) praising the house, facilities, and community. Most importantly, every reviewer said they had a great vacation. We are very excited to have the opportunity to vacation here and offer this unique spot in paradise for others to enjoy as well.
