Enjoy this 3BR/2BA home, 5 houses from open ocean! Amenities include fish cleaning station, electricity and water access, bait freezer and salt water-heated pool with a tanning ledge! Catch a show in the outdoor TV while relaxing in the separate hot tub!

Our waterfront, single-family home, affectionately named “Turtle Cove” is a tastefully furnished Florida Keys home and located on a quiet side street, in a residential neighborhood. The home is equipped with six (6) outward facing security cameras to protect the property, which will be disabled upon guest’s arrival with the EXCEPTION of the two (2) dock cameras. strictly for water safety purposes. There are NO cameras inside the home.

Inside, the open living and dining room space is great for gathering with plenty of seating for everyone; a great environment to sit back, relax and talk about your daily and upcoming adventures!

The main level has two (2) bedrooms: one canal side with a king bed, TV and sliding glass doors to access the outside; the second has a queen bed and a TV. Our lower level, which is accessible from the outside ONLY, has a full and twin beds, a seating area with a TV, a little serving station with a microwave, small refrigerator to hold some essentials and a washer and dryer.

Our outdoor living area features a lovely saltwater pool with tanning ledge. The lanai, a covered area provides outdoor dining/sitting and a TV to relax in the hot tub and watch your favorite shows.

If you don’t have a boat of your own, there are plenty of rental/guide services in the area. We have one (1) tandem kayak with seats and life jackets for guest's use. When you aren’t out enjoying our beautiful Atlantic Ocean or your private pool and hot tub, you’ll enjoy a host of other entertainment options: just minutes to Sombrero and Coco Plum Beaches, the Turtle Hospital, Crane Museum and just a short drive to the Dolphin Research Center or Aquarium where you will learn about the wonderful sea life in the area.

In case you can’t get to the outdoors or to our sites or are winding down in the evenings, we have large screen TVs, a DVD player to watch movies and have a few games and puzzles if that is your thing.

There are so many great restaurants to try in the area, it will be hard to pick a night to stay in and cook on your own. But if you do, you’ll find that our kitchen is stocked with cooking essentials. You’ll appreciate the stainless steel appliances and granite countertops with plenty of room to prep! Of course, we provide standards: a coffee pot, keurig, toaster, blender and plenty of serving dishes.

We loved amenities of the home! The pool and canal access were great! We like to cook rather than go out to eat so having the grill and a well appointed kitchen was much appreciated. Great property for boaters! The host provided wonderful details about which boat ramp to use and how to navigate back to the home. Our host was very responsive to our needs during our stay and communicated very well.

The drive to Sombrero beach is less than three minutes giving you both the best of the beach and the pool at the property.the home is immaculately cleaned and maintained by both pool services and landscaping services weekly.The greatest thing about this property is your property manager Gail she will keep you well informed and is always available for questions and thinks about the small things and provides those which most people will forget.
