The house was very nice, and the sunrise over the water was beautiful. We greatly appreciated the heated pool as our stay coincided with the coldest weather in the Keys in decades. Key deer visited on the daily. If I could make one suggestion to the owner, it would be to add stepping stones from the stairs to the pool; the coral landscaping is not foot-friendly. Launching the kayaks was fairly easy from the dock, and the one day when the temp and wind got along, we were able to paddle to a couple of the nearby Keys.

AMAZING!!! Did not want to leave.

Wonderful and relaxing

House was great, and very clean. The pool came in very handy, and our kids loved it. The dock was wonderful, and made for excellent sunrise pictures! It was also fun catching fish from the dock. You do have to get used to the smell of the sea grass…especially on a calm day when the wind didn’t clear it out from accumulating. Great location home.

Although there are three buildings on this property, they will not rent the other two if only one is rented which is very nice and allows privacy during your stay. Michelle was very attentive to any questions/concerns we had. This would be perfect for a multi-family reunion and rent all the buildings!

Private oasis

On arrival I will admit I was a little skeptical….The awful odor and the nonstop winds had me concerned, but as others commented we really did get use to the smell and after settling in and enjoying the secluded home, fantastic swimming pool and great fishing dock…we really loved this place! The property was clean and well stocked. Michelle was extremely friendly and helpful. And the clean, warm , private pool made the trip! Our stay in Big Pine Key was extremely, unusually windy! Made it a little hard to enjoy the deck with a view but obviously not anyone’s fault. We enjoyed the convenience of location to great restaurants and activities while being tucked away from large crowds and rowdy neighbors. Overall this was a great trip and great place to stay!!

A little slice of paradise

This property is everything I hoped for and more. We stayed in the coral house which had three bedrooms & had the full property to ourselves. It was clean, well stocked with everything we needed and the beds were comfortable. The deck and bbq were perfect for the evenings. We were up every morning to see the sunrise and the key deer then morning swim with the kids. We tried the kayaks, enjoyed the fishing from the dock & played games in the shade under the house. The house is near Bahia Honda State park for beaches and snorkelling & about 40 min from Key West. Michelle was responsive to any questions. Overall we had a fantastic time at this property.

Lovely location, great house!

We spent the week here in April. It was perfect. A few things for those who are traveling to the area for the first time. 1) The blue floating barrier in the pictures is not a swimming area, it's a barrier for the seaweed and weather. That area prior between the sea wall and the barrier is a shallow non-swimmable space to protect the property. 2) The pool is amazing and you will utilize it. It's deep enough in one end to jump in (I wouldn't recommend diving for safety) but is lots of fun for the kids. 3) The dock is essential - great for tying up boats and fishing. No cleats, just the dock pilons to tie to. Gets about 4-6 feet deep at the end and the currents are very manageable. 4) Fishing: it was hard to fish sometimes from the dock due to the seaweed (this year is especially challenging but usually not as bad) yet we still caught mangrove snapper, tarpon and other fish. The water is so clear you can see EVERYTHING, and the Cobia hunting at night is wild (we didn't catch any of them!) 5) House has everything you need to cook etc, first house I've ever been to that I didn't really need anything. 6) Bait/fish freezer was very lovely - nice to keep things separate 7) Shade: there is no shade on the dock and limited on the property (except under the houses). So you may want to bring something for that, we were fine. 8) Grocery shopping: Michelle put it best - if you need something NOW hit up the Winn Dixie on Big Pine, but if you want to do a comprehensive shopping, take the time to go to Marathon and go to either the Winn Dixie there or the Publix. 9) Smell - you may be initially put off when you first arrive during the Sargassum (seaweed) season. The seaweed itself is fine, but as it decays there can be a "rotten egg" smell. DO NOT PANIC. It's really not as significant as you think it will be. It's really only there if there is ZERO wind which there never is except when we drove up and parked. The rest of the time even my crazy picky kids and husband didn't notice it or care if they did. We will be back and stay again!

Awesome time at Island Sunrise Resort AGAIN!!!

This was our 6th straight year staying at Island Sunrise Resort. We rented both the coral house and the mermaid cottage. As usual, Michelle let us drop the boats at the house as soon as we got there. We bummed around until the houses were ready and hit our usual lunch spot (Boondocks on Ramrod Key) and got groceries from the Winn Dixie. When we got in the houses, both were clean and well equipped with all kitchen necessities and other household items. There is a gas grill for cooking your catch and the kids spent a lot of time in the awesome pool. Plenty of dock space for our 3 boats and paddle boards. The house also provides three kayaks and a bait freezer. We caught tarpon, snapper and bonnet head sharks right from the dock. Launching the boats is easy and convenient at the paved boat ramp about a mile from the house at the base of the Spanish Harbor bridge and there is plenty of room to park the trailers on property. The house is about 3 miles from Bahia Honda State Park and the old railroad bridge and its free to tie up at the marina for boaters. Ran the kids over there several times to get ice cream from the ships store. Made day trips to both Content Key and Looe Key for snorkeling. Also made our annual pilgrimage to Key West for some adult fun and to watch the sunset at Mallory Square with one of the boys getting invited up to assist the Cat Man with his show. We fished the bridges almost every day, catching tarpon, Jacks, black grouper, snapper and BIG nurse sharks. Got out to the reef for some good action with yellowtail, mangrove snapper and cero mackerel. Boys spent a morning at the Keys Cable Park in Marathon wakeboarding. Had dinner at No Name Pub and got take out from China Garden in the Winn Dixie parking lot. Resident Key Deer came to visit every morning and evening. One of our friends even got to help rescue one deer that got caught on the wrong side of the chain link fence along the road as she was jogging one morning. Thanks to the guys at Lower Keys Tackle for chum and all the helpful info. You can still see some of the effects from Irma but the island is coming back strong and there's a lot of new green growth everywhere. We've already booked for 2020.
