The Neighborhood:

Located at Mile Marker 82.5 in the heart of Islamorada, this home is in one of the more walkable areas in the Upper Keys. You’re just steps from local shops and a short walk to popular restaurants, bars, and the well-known Islamorada Beer Company.



Despite being close to everything, the property itself is tucked away in a quiet, wooded setting—offering a more relaxed and private feel than most nearby stays.



A detailed guestbook is provided with our favorite recommendations for dining, drinks, and local activities.



Getting Around:

While this area of Islamorada is more walkable than most in the Keys, we recommend having a vehicle to fully explore nearby attractions, beaches, and surrounding areas.
