This is a beautiful property that offers a home like atmosphere as
well as complete privacy. The property is in the community of
Plantation Key Colony. This is one of the best communities in the
Keys. Ample roads, large lots (space between homes), very quiet, very
family oriented community. This property is part of 'The Village'.
Meaning as a resident you have access to Founders Park for a (small fee for short term renters) that is
considered to be one of the most complete parks in the Keys. This is
a solid home that has been kept in a pristine condition and has all
the comforts I high standard living. The location is ideal for all local activities and is still close to Miami.

Vacation Rental Amenities

The property has 3 bed rooms and 2 complete bathrooms.

1st bedroom (main living area) is equipped with a king size bed. It has an orthopedic mattress and an entertainments center (Flat screen Smart TV, DVR Direct TV dvr with Full Subscription (HBO, Showtime, FOX, CNN etc., Surround soundbar & DVD player). In addition to a ceiling fan, reading lights on each side of the bed and closet.

The 2nd bed room is larger with a big walkway and equipped with King Size Bed that has an Orthopedic mattress. This room also has an Flat screen TV, DVD Player, Direct TV DVR and sound bar. In addition to a ceiling fan and closet.

The third room is on the 1st floor and is considered a man cave. It is air-conditioned (split unit / high efficiency) and has a full size futon. TV mounted on overhead swivel to be viewed on both ends. Also has Direct Tv DVR with sound system that has Bluetooth with speakers for the inside living area and outdoors to be heard while on the patio, SPA etc.,. XBox one and Nintendo Wii with games and controllers. In addition to a full size SS refrigerator with ice maker. This is a large room and also has the option of a pull out queen memory foam bed with platform (additional cost to use).

The TV/Family room has a complete entertainment center. This
includes a 50 inch High Definition Flat Screen TV, large sound bar,
DVD/Blue Ray Payer, Direct Tv dvr that includes a complete package with all HBO’s, Showtime,
Cinemax etc.,) This is all seen
from a large custom sectional sofa that has multiple recliners with remote controls for all positions.

Then you go to the kitchen and find a maple wood cabinets protected by a granite counter with under mount sink. Appliances are all stainless steel and the customary utilities are included (toaster, coffee maker, plates, cups, silverware etc.,

The bathroom is beautifully decorated with a keys like theme. The
bath is a shower with a oversize head for a complete and relaxing
shower after a long day at the beach.

The home is also equipped with a modem front loading Maytag washer and dryer combo. All, linens and towels are also included. In addition, the property is accessed by specific combination for each renter this includes all entry points (entry gate & main door). No one gets a key and every renters gets a unique code that is never repeated.


On the first floor you find a large area / room / man cave. This is a great air conditioned entertainment area with overhead fishing rod holder, refrigerator with ice maker, an entertainment center.

Step outside to find a professional ping pong table, domino table, dart game, ring toss game (traditional Bahamian game of trying to hook a metal ring by swinging it until it is caught by the hook). There is also a complete bathroom also nicely decorated so that you do not need to run upstairs.

Decorative flooring downstairs with custom fish designs / pictures throughout.

Nice 6 person SPA / hot tub.

Half Court: Custom Miami Heat half basketball court with adjustable height hoop.

There is also comfortable chairs, beach chairs (easily taken with back pack feature), a twin size stand alone hammock that can be placed between the trees on installed rings and a gazebo with a stainless steel BBQ with protective cover. Another gazebo with a ceiling fan, lighting and 6 person outdoor table. The back area is large and full of tree's that offer shade and lots of privacy. In the center of the yard is a custom build Miami Heat basketball court with adjustable back board. The property is completely fenced in with a chain link fence in addition to a privacy mesh along the rear wall for privacy and to avoid the basketball from going into the neighbors home.

We have some Kayaks on the property that can be used. But you need to have a method of transport to take them to the ramp. They are heavy and bulky and the ramp options are not that close. I do have a front door neighbor that has his own private ramp but cannot guarantee he will let you use it due to who is renting from him at the time of your stay. Also, Chanel is long and it takes a while to get out. It is best to use the public ramp at the Tavernier bridge because it has a floating ramp that makes it easy to launch and to get on. This is a free option and has safe parking.

There is a covered parking areas at the left side of the property that has a separate gate. This one is reserved by the owner which leaves his boat on site. However, accommodations can be made if needed. Yes, bring your boat and further enjoy the Florida keys with no waits and hassle in our private ramp! Meaning inside the perimeter you can park your boats, rv and cars. There is also more space for guests in front of the gated area.

Activities and Attractions

Community private ramp! Several nice spots close by for fun or fishing. Can provide GPS points to all needed locations (make you look like a local). Minutes from the famous tiki sand bar 'Whale
Harbor'. Great to hang out or go to the ocean side for one of the
best fishing areas in the Key's.

Perfect Location for Diving
This was the perfect house for our 5 weeks diving in the Keys. The covered open area provided an excellent area for cleaning and hanging our dive gear. The main living area was comfortable, and the kitchen allowed us to cook any meals we wanted to eat at home. We will definitely look to rent this house again the next time we are in the Tavernier/Islamorada area as it is a great home base to explore all there is to do here. Joseph was a fantastic owner to rent from. He was very communicative and quickly responded to any questions we had.

Wonderful vacation home
This was the perfect place for our 5 week vacation. The home was clean and was perfect because there was a place to my boat. There were so many amenities that came with this home we loved them all. The hot tub was great to relax and enjoy the evening. The man cave down below was perfect to hangout and relax in. Next trip that we take to the keys we will be renting this home again. The host was great and gave use the privacy needed but was always a phone call away if we ever needed anything. Thank you again for letting us stay in your home.
