Palm Escape – A Private Oceanfront Tropical Estate in the Heart of Islamorada
Private Estate - Beach, Pool, & Dock all fully Private!
Welcome to Palm Escape—where towering palms, lush tropical gardens, and breathtaking ocean views create one of the most private and unforgettable waterfront retreats in the Florida Keys.
From the moment you arrive through the gated entrance, you're surrounded by vibrant tropical landscaping that makes the property feel more like a secluded island resort than a vacation rental. Guests often say the grounds are even more spectacular in person, creating an atmosphere that's peaceful, private, and unlike anywhere else in Islamorada.
Whether you're sipping coffee beneath the palms as the sun rises over the Atlantic, lounging beside the heated oceanfront pool, launching a kayak from the shoreline, or docking your boat in the protected private basin, every part of the property is designed to help you slow down and enjoy the Keys the way they were meant to be experienced.
The estate comfortably accommodates families and groups with five beautifully appointed bedrooms, spacious indoor gathering areas, and a separate guest cottage that provides additional privacy while keeping everyone together on one spectacular property.
After a day on the water, gather for dinner on the outdoor patio, grill your fresh catch, relax beneath the stars, and fall asleep to the sound of gentle ocean breezes.
Located in the heart of Islamorada, Palm Escape is just minutes from world-class fishing, diving, snorkeling, waterfront restaurants, local breweries, boutiques, and everything that has made the Florida Keys famous—yet once you're inside the gates, it feels like your own private tropical sanctuary.

Boat Docking Information
Yes — You Can Bring Your Boat We welcome boats up to 30 feet at our private boat basin.
Boats regularly enter and leave the basin successfully. The only requirement is that, like many waterfront homes throughout the Florida Keys, you must plan your arrivals and departures around the tides.
Please note: During extremely low tides, the basin can become so shallow that many boats will rest on the bottom until the tide returns. This is a normal occurrence in many shallow-water areas of the Florida Keys and typically lasts only a short period before the water rises again.
Understanding the Tides
Water depth changes throughout the day as the tide rises and falls.
High tide provides the greatest water depth.
Mid to high tide is generally the best time to enter or leave the basin.
During low tide, only shallow-draft boats (such as flats boats, bay boats, or certain Boston Whalers) may have sufficient clearance.
Boats with deeper drafts should simply plan departures and returns around the tide schedule.
Water Depth - The water depth in front of the house is anywhere from 1 to 3 ft depending on the tides.
Minutes from the Keys' best restaurants, marinas, fishing, diving, and snorkeling Whether you're planning a multi-generational family vacation, a fishing adventure, or simply looking for a peaceful escape surrounded by natural beauty, Palm Escape offers the rare combination of luxury, privacy, and authentic Florida Keys charm that keeps guests returning year after year.
