Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1990
I love to fish and dive and enjoy sunny days in the Keys.
Why the Owner Chose Summerland Key
I always wanted to live on the ocean and found the Keys to be the perfect place. I came down in the 70's and loved the peace and quiet of the lower keys especially and its close proximity to Key West. Best fishing, diving and snorkeling in the world.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Swim in the crystal clear waters of Summerland Key. Closest location to Looe Key national underwater reef community. Close to Key West but not as crowded. Many restaurants and a local putt-putt golf.

We've rented homes for the April vacation for years starting out on the west coast of FL then changing the venue to the Keys. The last family vacation, children are grown, was in 2009 at Casa Monte. It was the most spectacular rental and so much more for the price than any previous rental. Don't hesitate to stay here. It's fabulous!

This is an outstanding property. My family and I just completed an 8 day rental and it was great. This house is a home and not set up like a rental property. Lots of personal touches throughout the home. It is also an exceptionally clean home and appears never to been rented before. Open water views and easy access to both the ocean and the back country. Sitting in the pool and watching the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean was our favorite experience. Easy drive to grocery store, bait, and 30 minutes to Key West. Thanks for great memories and we look forward to renting this property again.

Another Keys Vacation

My family recently returned from spending 11 days at Casa Monte on Summerland Key. Let me just say first that the home far exceeds the pictures and description on the website. This home is immaculate and perfect for a family. We spent hours on the dock fishing and enjoying the views and sunsets. The pool is fantastic and the grounds are simply beautiful. This was our second visit to the Keys and we will definitely return. Kudos to the owner and all those involved with maintaining this lovely property. Our time spent at Casa Monte was one of the most relaxing and pleasurable vacations we've taken in a while. Thanks for helping us make memories that will last a lifetime, although they won't have to because we will certainly be returning.

A Terrific Family Vacation

We just returned from a stay at Casa Monte in Summerland Key with our college age kids, and it was terrific! The home is spacious, beautiful and immaculately maintained. The pool and ocean front dock offer opportunities for relaxing happy hours and gorgeous sunsets. The pool table provided fun for everyone. Summerland Key is quiet but close enough to Key West (about 30 minutes) for easy excursions out to dinner. The Wharf Restaurant and Boondocks are also very close by, and we enjoyed terrific meals and drinks there. Access to the channel and open water is very direct and easy, and we spent lots of time in our boat fishing, exploring, snorkeling at Looe Key, and weekend partying at Picnic Island. We also swam with the dolphins at Dolphin Research Center in Marathon and parasailed with Adventure Water Sports in Marathon....both were great. All in all, Casa Monte provided a great location for a wonderful vacation. We will plan to stay there again in our next trip to the Keys.

It was our 5th time to the Keys, renting various places, and by FAR, Casa Monte was the best! The house is beautiful, along with the outdoor entertaining area. We caught fish off the dock, and enjoyed every evening watching the sunset as we tried to capture it on our camera. We purchased fresh seafood from the market nearby and grilled them. First time we ever spent so much time @ the house vs. sightseeing. Highly recommend to anyone.

We just returned home from a month at Casa Monte. We are in the withdrawl phase and missing our views, sunsets and heated pool! Mike and Jerry have a special place here and made our stay so special with all they include with their home. We felt like we were at home right from the first day which is rare. And the rental agent Cheryl from Action Keys was so friendly and easy to work with too. We rented bikes and rode through the neighborhood and up to Murray's daily. Loved the location and how close it was to Key West yet private and QUIET when we returned home. Thanks for the wonderful memories!!!

Thank you so much for making this home available for rental! This place has it all - gorgeous oceanfront viewing, pool and dockage for your boat. There's plenty of room to break away from the other guests to wind down, if you need to and kids (or Mothers-in-Laws) love their own 'suite' downstairs. When you stay here, do all you can to have some STONE CRABS! A local helped us in this regard, at first I couldn't understand why they would turn down my favorites, Mahi-Mahi and Lobster Tails... well, it's because they know what they're talking about. Locals don't get too excited for Dolphin or Bugs, but they do about Stone Crabs.... do yourself a favor, try it! I can't express how awesome this place is... you need to find out for yourself! You won't want to rent ANY other home!
