In addition to the actual residence, there is a large deck terrace (1200 square feet) adjacent to the master suite with patio furnishings and a charcoal grill for your private use. There are super views from this deck. In addition to the home you have the use of the boat basin. You are allowed to dock one boat up to 26 feet in length. It is private and secluded with private homes on either side of the property. The actual location is close to both the ocean as well as back-country fishing.

Owner's Map of Islamorada
I am from the Show Me state originally and always longed for an outlet to the sea. I was until recently a licensed real estate broker in a ski area in California. My sport is sailing and I have sailed all over the world. When I first came to the Florida Keys in the early 1970's, I knew I would be back over and over again. The ambiance is unbeatable!

Best place to stay in Islamorada

My husband, daughter and I have been staying at the Osprey Nest for the last 6 years. We would not stay anywhere else. The grounds are always beautiful as are the sunsets. We like the quiet and cozy feel of this condo. There is plenty of room for all of our dive equipment and the boat dockage is right by the front door. There are so many restaurants in the area that you can reach by boat and the sand bar is only around the corner. We are blessed to have found this place and the owner Don is the nicest person to rent from. This condo is always clean, inviting and comfortable.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.

This condo is everything that is promised...beautifully decorated, immaculately maintained and well-equipped, including very comfortable furniture and beds. The owner has paid a lot of attention to details and to making his guests feel welcome and at home. Wonderful views of the bay, just steps away from the boat basin...be sure to enjoy the spectacular sunsets from the jetty. The location is right in the heart of Islamorada and close to all the attractions and conveniences, including some extraordinary restaurants and my very favorite bar, right on the water. You just know Jimmy Buffet spent a lot of time at the Lorelei! Every time I've been here I've had a marvelous time and highly recommend this rental condo.

This will be out third visit to paradise. The unit is clean and well maintained. The property is bayside and centrally located between the famous Holiday Isle sand bar, and Alligator Reef to the south. We bring our 13’ Boston Whaler and launch it on site next to the marina. There are several restaurants nearby that are accessible by boat and have plenty of dockage. From the marina you have one of the best views of the sun setting over the bay. You will not be disappointed.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers.
