About this property

Beach House🌴Waterfront, Private Pool, Boat Dock on Gulf with Amazing Sunsets!☀️

You don't come to the islands to stay in a town! Relax in our tropical paradise away from the traffic and noise of US Hwy #1.

Palm Studded property 1/2 acre property overlooking the Gulf, Can you say Beach House? Panoramic Open water views from your living area, Dock, Tranquil fenced in yard with in ground heated concrete pool. From House, to Dock, to Beach, to Pool, this home has it all. Breathtaking sunsets right from the dock. Almost like your own island!

When we decided to purchase a home in the Florida Keys privacy and being close to nature was top on our list of requirements. We found the perfect combination on Grassy Key, a small island between Islamorada and Marathon made famous by 'Flipper' and the Dolphin Research Center.

On Grassy Key we are close enough to enjoy Marathon restaurants and grocery shopping yet still be able to explore dive sites in both the Upper and Lower Keys!

The perfect location has now been turned into the perfect oasis. Special features include a gourmet kitchen that will please the most discriminating chef. Our guests enjoy luxury bedding with quality linens, fluffy towels and bathrobes. Wireless internet service and cable tv.

After a full day in the sun there is no better place to relax than in the cool fresh water pool surrounded by the lush gardens. Check out the massive coconut and royal palms, the 9' high bird of paradise, the banana and key lime trees, blooming hibiscus and orchids. Just don't lay under the coconut trees!

So whether you are coming to the keys to relax, fish, kayak, snorkel, dive or whatever your heart desires the White Sands has it all for you.

Loved the house and location! It was well stocked with everything we needed...pool floats, beach towels, kayaks etc. The pool area was the prettiest I've seen in any vacation house we've stayed in. Any questions we had were quickly answered by the property manager. Would definitely stay here again!

PARADISE!

We have stayed at this property since 2011. She feels like home every time we come. The pictures of the property are accurate. No, you cannot see the sun set on the water, but after it goes down the sky is simply amazing! Breath taking!! The grounds & pool are well maintained. We were visited every day by a turtle off the pier. Saw some sting rays too! Already booked for next year!!

Marathon, Grassy Key, Florida

This is a wonderful property. Very clean, spacious, perfect spot in the middle of the Keys. Plenty of activities around this area. We kayaked with the kayaks provided, we swam and snorkeled around the dock and beyond. The pool area was gorgeous as well. The peace and serenity the property provided was immeasurable. I highly recommend this property!

Gorgeous views in a well equipped home

We had a lovely time in Grassy Key. This home was probably one of the best appointed homes I’ve stayed in. It seemed to have just about everything. The views are spectacular. Large windows to take in all the sights. The yard had amazing landscaping. Great location if you want to travel north or south. This is not the fault of the owner, but staying on Grassy Key comes with its downsides. As the name suggests the sea grass washes in and with it can be a terrible odor from time to time. While the pier and fishing dock are a great asset to the home the amount of bird droppings made it difficult to enjoy that.
