About this property

Great Location in an old-fashioned lobster/crab fishing village close bye

Boat Docking fee to be paid on site!

One (1) Vehicle, Trailer and Boat Per Unit.

Conch Key- An old-fashioned lobster and crab fishing village that can only accommodate a few lucky tourists who want great fishing and diving and a complete rest! You can often pick up fresh seafood from the local fishermen.

Conch Key Landing (CKL) is our family's unpretentious waterfront winter home which we invite you to share. It is completely equipped and spotlessly clean. We provide everything you need for a great vacation. CKL is directly on Florida Bay. A five minute boat ride from our protected dockage will take you under the US1 bridge to the oceanside flats, the reefs and the Gulfstream. Superb sunsets, bird and fish viewing. Lie in a hammock or relax in our comfortable deck chairs under the palms and let the world go by.

Our friendly, knowledgeable, property managers, live only two doors away. They are most happy to provide you with information about the Keys and to ensure that CKL remains in top condition so that you will have a pleasurable stay

Week away

Everything was great! The property was clean and inviting. We had everything we needed available. The property manager is a few doors down and we enjoyed talking with her and her awesome dog.

You can do better

It was nice being on the bay, but this property is not a good choice if you are looking for peace and quiet. I thought being on a small key would feel like getting away from it all, but instead the small size means constant traffic noise with the main highway so close. We we're in the downstairs unit. The bedroom and bathroom are in the back and are very dark with just a few small windows looking out underneath a covered area. Thankfully there was a ceiling fan in the bedroom, but there was not one in the livingroom which might have helped with limited air flow through the small windows when we had the AC off. I'm guessing the upstairs unit might be better in that regard. Beware, the description for the downstairs unit inaccurately lists the keywords "one bedroom upstairs." Because of this we thought we rented the upstairs unit, which looks like it would have been nicer. We did enjoy having kayaks there for our use (though one of them is not in great shape with worn out straps and a busted seat), saw some nice sunsets from the deck, and enjoyed daily visits from caretaker Joanie and her sweet dog. The main drawback for this property is the constant traffic noise, and that will probably to only continue to get worse.

Quaint lobstering town

Location is incredible. View is incredible. Property managers were extremely friendly and accommodating. This is definitely a fisherman’s type of place. If you’re looking for pedicure/manicure type place , move on. This is for the simple love the water kind of people. I have rented many places in the keys, for me this is my favorite. I will be back. Thank you so much for sharing your property.

This was a great place for a quick reprieve from work, or work from there, wifi connection was good! We love the keys and just needed to be there! Sunsets beautiful, rebounded and yoga on the deck each morning. We will return!

Several things.

Joanie and Denise are very nice and most helpful and accommodating. The view is wonderful. Unfortunately, antiquated DSL Internet service with 1 router for several units was entirely inadequate. The signal was weak and sporadic. My wife and I are both business people and needed adequate internet. Most disappointing., for what I paid, I expected better. The owner was contacted and insisted 1 router was sufficient. Wrong! Fiber optic service is available and this needs to be updated. Also, after completing payment, I realized when I checked the breakdown of owner fees, I was charged for parking. I have rented many times in the Keys and have never been charged for parking. We stayed in the lower unit and heard every step the folks upstairs took. Very noisy. The bedroom has nowhere to put clothes that do not go on hangers. There is no dresser. We had to stack our clothes on top of a linen cabinet in the bathroom. Because of the parking fee, I probably would not stay here again.

Great Quiet apartment directly on the gulf.

We loved staying here! It was a quiet small key where we were able to walk out our door to the deck and watch the sunrise and beautiful sunsets each day. We found it hard to leave each day. The apartment was well equipped with everything you need to prepare meals. The location was very convenient between Islamorada and Marathon. There was a friendly family atmosphere among the people staying around us. Denise and Joannie were very helpful and made us feel welcome! It was a nice convenience to have access to the washer/dryer. The listing doesn't make it clear there is 2 units, upstairs and down, but we were very comfortable downstairs and it was nice to walk out to the deck without going down stars. Thanks for sharing your corner of paradise with us!

Amazing place...

The place was beautiful and well maintained. The hosts Joannie and Denise were fantastic. It is just secluded enough yet a short drive to get anything. Unreal sunsets. Can't wait to return...
