Perfect Holiday Visit to Islamorada

Our family of 5 adults spent 2 weeks over the holidays. We have visited the keys many times over the past 20 years and this was by far the best place we have stayed. The home is beautiful and well-appointed. We rented a boat and utilized the dock, which worked out great. The pool is very nice and the heat can be turned up to function as a hot tub, which was awesome on a few of the cool days. We had a private chef dinner (Chris' Clearwater Charters) at the home and the kitchen had everything needed and more. The location is perfect with many restaurants and bars within an easy walk. Communication was outstanding and check-in was a breeze. Owners were close by and very responsive during our stay. Just an awesome place and we can't wait to go back!

Comfortable Home

The house was well maintained and comfortable. The kitchen was better equipped than most rentals. There were plug-in air fresheners in every bathroom which we unplugged upon arrival because we prefer unscented interiors. The plunge pool was a great place to relax in the afternoons. Highly recommend this house.

Best Vacation in Islamorada

Great house in a perfect location

Pleasantly surprised by the quality design and comfort of the house. The private outdoor area is nicer than the photos. Very well appointed, good appliances, great layout for 4 adults and a few kids. Location is perfect for Islamorada lovers. Dockage is convenient. Owner is extremely accommodating and communicative. Whatever inevitable minor issues or questions arose were addressed quickly and thoroughly. Neighbors are friendly and the complex is quiet and private. Overall a terrific experience!

Islamorada Getaway

This property is everything you need and then some. Cleanliness was top notch. The kitchen is spacious with plenty of supplies to meet our baking & meal preparation needs. Both pools are beautifully maintained & we used them frequently. We met some of the neighbors who were very polite & friendly. Everyone enjoyed using the paddle boards. We even got to see a manatee!! Our favorite spot was the upstairs, covered porch.. playing cards, watching the sunset or taking a nap in the hammock chair. Thanks Giovanna, we'll spread the word about your amazing property!!

This property is absolutely beautiful and I don't think the pictures even do it justice. The ocean was even closer than I anticipated which made it very convenient to rent a boat for the week. I highly recommend this location.

Everything you need

This property was beautiful... great space, has all the amenities. We loved the location and the setting. Having the private plunge pool was fabulous for having a cocktail after dinner. The dock was perfect for the boat and also seeing all the wildlife (manatee, fish, baby sharks). We took sunset cruises out into the harbor each night. Plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. Our group had a great time and were very impressed with this propery. Thank you for a memorable vacation.

Relaxing Stay in Islamorada

We had a wonderful stay at this house in Islamorada. It is in the prime location to walk to local events, spas, shopping, and the best restaurants. We enjoyed time at the Cheeca Lodge, Bad Boy Burrito, and Square Grouper. It’s in short driving range to Theater of the Seas, Robbie’s, Bud and Marys, and Founders Park. The house was spotless, very clean, had all the amenities you needed for cooking, and had lots of room. The private plunge pool and the large community pool were both perfectly heated during our stay and both were very clean and well maintained. There were bikes available for use to ride around Islamorada. Our host Giovanna was very accommodating and had excellent communication skills. We had a wonderful, relaxing time and have already planned our vacation back next year!

Thanksgiving in Paradise!!!

This property will not disappoint! The community has a laid-back Keys vibe, and the home is beautifully decorated. We stayed the week of Thanksgiving when the weather was perfect. Enjoyed the bicycles and paddleboards, as well as hanging in the plunge pool watching football on the big screen and relaxing. Giovanna was the perfect host. We hope to stay again soon.

Paradise and Relaxation

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful property. The home is gorgeous, immaculate and has everything you need for rest, relaxation and a bit of fun. The location is also great. We were able to snorkel, fish, and swim at the beach within just a few miles. My girls loved spending time in the splash pool after the days activities. While my husband and I enjoyed watching the sunset with a glass of wine at the end of the day. We look forward to our next stay.

Beautiful, stylish home in the center of everything that Islamorada has to offer!

This new-construction home is simply lovely, with a smart layout and contemporary coastal decor that captures the spirit of the Keys, without being cheesy. The property was exceptionally clean and was turn-key. The kitchen was equipped with everything one would need, and then some. With two teenagers and a younger child, the bedroom arrangement was ideal, giving each of them plenty of space. We brought our 22' boat, which the dock accommodated nicely. The dock was well lit, and had new rubber bumpers, plenty of cleats, and water hoses for easy end-of-day clean up. The open water views from the dock and pool area are fantastic. The property's location is within walking distance of multiple famous Islamorada restaurants and waterfront bars. The new Publix just down the road, along with a smaller nearby market, made stocking the fridge a simple endeavor. Giovanna was a terrific host, making our arrival worry-free, and answered any questions we had thoroughly and promptly. This was a fantastic rental! Great job!

About the host

Hosted by Giovanna Clerici

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Islamorada over a decade ago when we drove down as visitors for a weekend getaway. Ever since, we kept returning every chance we got. On a serendipitous occasion during one of our many visits, we happened to walk by the pre-construction site of Coral Cove and instantly knew we would love making this place our home.
We eventually built the home of our dreams and decided the only thing better than keeping it to ourselves would be sharing our paradise with families and friends seeking a relaxing, yet excitement-filled experience in unforgettable Islamorada.

What makes this property unique

Our home's location is truly unbeatable. Central to everything Islamorada has to offer, from world-famous restaurants to activities for the entire family, while nestled in a peaceful cove on the bay. Direct water access allows guests to keep watercraft within reach for the duration of their stay.
