Enjoy cooking with the newly added air fryer and all the utensils you need for a gourmet meal. The kitchen shares a bar with the dining room, giving additional seating to the large dining room table. The living room features 2 couches (one being a sofa bed), recliner and entertainment center with TV and games.
Separated by a breezeway is the guest suite with 2 queen beds, baby bed and ensuite bathroom. It's hibiscus décor gives a tropical garden feel.

About the host
Your host
We are from the Houston, Texas area. We walked into this home during an open house and instantly fell in love. We love gardening and are continually working to make the large yard into a tropical garden. This is our happy place. We enjoy getting to know our many repeat visitors and sharing our home.
Why they chose this property
The middle keys are a perfect area, not too far from the mainland, but far enough to feel the relaxation the islands offer. Key West is a short drive, but doesn't offer the peacefulness of the middle keys. Duck Key is residential and our property is very private with all the amenities that you need.
What makes this property unique
We have one of the largest lots available for rent in Duck Key. The house offers a guest suite, separated from the main house by a breezeway offering privacy for your guest. We are on the water and have turtle shaped swimming pool! We have lots of things to do: ping pong, domino table, croquet, badminton, lounging by the pool or in the tiki hut - even a homemade ice creamer maker to cool off on warm days.
