Please see our other house in Marathon where we have over 200 five star reviews ! See VRBO # 335111 { Casa del Sol } The Casa Del Mare is a wonderful house built by D'asign Source --- considered the top builder \ designer in the Florida Keys . Situated on the ocean side of the island on a wide crystal clear canal only a few yards from the open ocean, the location could not be better. Our dock is approximately 100 yards from the open ocean and just across from the entryway to Vaca cut and accesses to the bay country. The dock is 30' long and can easily accommodate boats up to 38' . This is a real plus for the serious diver or fisherman.
The house is sited on a beautifully landscaped lot with mature plantings -- to include honey mango and banana trees. PLEASE share honey mangoes when ripe in June --- everyone wants some ! There will be well over 100 fruits --- and they are the best ! A great house for families and children.

A huge pool and an attached child's pool along with several seating areas highlight the waterfront side of the house. Plenty of room for families with children to enjoy without being on top of one another. Also a very convenient pool side bathroom so bathers do not need to run into the house.
A classic old Florida style gazebo with stone columns and tiled roof adds to the enjoyment of the waterfront . The gazebo is equipped with lights and an overhead fan --- a favorite dining spot .
A beautiful new outdoor kitchen to include a Crown Verity SS grill , Fire Magic power burner and sink , round out the picture. The outdoor kitchen is undercover and has lighting over the power burner, grill , and the sink area , as well as two overhead fans. There is ample space in the stainless steel storage drawers and cabinets , all of which are fitted below beautiful full length granite counter tops . Finally , there is a convenient outside powder room adjacent to the pool and outdoor kitchen . Casa Del Mare was built as a family home and not as a rental property , and as such was designed and built with far greater attention to detail than a typical "rental home" .
