You're just minutes from John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, dive and snorkel shops, and world-class reefs and shipwrecks. Spend your days snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking the mangroves, or fishing, then come home to your private patio to watch boats, manatees, and nurse sharks glide by and take in the famous Key Largo sunsets. This waterfront studio sleeps 4 and features a full kitchen, walk-in shower, Smart TV, fast Wi-Fi, ice-cold A/C, assigned parking, and a private boat dock by reservation.

A returning guest who makes hosting easy. Communication is clear and timely from booking through checkout, she follows the house rules without needing reminders, and she leaves the cabana in great shape every time. She's respectful of the neighbors and the quiet setting, and she's been a pleasure to have on the property across multiple stays. Any host would be lucky to have her. We're already looking forward to the next visit. - Haze, Waterfront Cabanas

We had a great stay at this condo. It was clean, comfortable, and matched the description provided in the listing. As expected, there wasn't a lot of privacy, but we knew that ahead of time and it wasn't an issue for our stay.The location was convenient, and we especially enjoyed having a fish market nearby, which made it easy to pick up fresh seafood during our visit.Overall, this was a great place to stay, and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-located condo.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 Aug 2026
Thank you for the kind words. We are glad the cabana was spotless and comfortable, and that what you found matched what you read. The fish market being a short walk from your door is one of those things guests don't expect until they've picked up dinner without ever getting in the car, and it sounds like you made good use of it. Groceries are about five minutes away too, and restaurants just up the road, which keeps the errand-running to a minimum. Next time, leave an afternoon for snorkeling, the reef is a short drive away and well worth a day. We'd love to have you back. -Haze, Waterfront Cabanas

Dive Trip

Good location, clean room, easy access to the room and back patio area. The cabana was great for our dive trip as we were able to dry our scuba gear on the back patio. Instructions and responses by the host were timely. Overall I'd stay here again.

Don’t rent it!

Mot a single comfortable lave to sit inside, noisy construction site location. Very poorly equipt kitchen and most uncomfortable bed we have ever encountered! It looks pretty in a picture but it isn’t worth the money, honest.

What makes this property unique

Cabanas Key Largo is the first island in Florida Keys. Here are some reviews from previous guests. "Great location in Key Largo. Wonderful home and was great with a kid. Really enjoyed the back patio and watching boats go by. Home was spotless and wonderful!" "Spotless, quiet, peaceful outdoor seating by the water. Great to be able to walk to lovely places to eat. Great to be able to walk to shops for basic groceries. Recommended" "We had to make a vacation pivot last minute and decided to stay in Key Largo. We were so lucky to find this canal front location at a great rate with wonderful managers. The space was perfect for the two of us and all our dive gear. Super close to the best seafood restaurant (backyard Cafe),our dive shop and all other needs. The main bed was too firm for me but the smaller couch/beds were good. Not a ton of boat traffic so it's not noisy unless a neighbor throws a party. We're so grateful for a wonderful experience!"
