Summerland Key oceanfront rentals

We were so pleased with our stay at this property. Everything went smoothly from check in to our departure. The home was beautiful, perfectly located and sparkling clean. For us the location between Key West and Marathon was perfect--and so peaceful. If nature and peace and quiet are what you are looking for, you will find it here. We visited Key West and Marathon but were more than happy to return to this oasis. Of all of the units in this community, this one is prime. It is directly on the small beach and right next to the pool with unobstructed, beautiful views. I chose this unit partly because of the bikes, kayaks and paddleboards offered, but my husband injured his shoulder prior to the trip, so we didn't get to use any of them. There are many very good restaurants nearby--the closest is Broil--and was the best, in our opinion. The food and service were over the top. A more casual option, Boondocks was fun, and we were surprised at how good the food was. We also love stopping at Hogfish Grill in Key West on our way up from the airport. The Key West airport is an easy drive. We drove up to Miami when we left, and that drive is one you need to do at least once in your lifetime. As far as the unit goes, as others have mentioned, it was very well stocked. You could literally arrive with just your clothes, and everything else would be provided. The decor is so beachy and fun, bedding was very nice and beds were quite comfortable. Hope to return!

Neighbors were wonderful. Included me in neighborhood activities

We spent the month of December at the Hideaway and found it to be immaculately clean, comfortably furnished, and super well equipped. Especially during the holidays, it was so nice to find a real assortment of baking and cooking tools and utensils.The home itself is an older keys home, impeccably maintained, in a quiet key, surrounded by nature preserve. You are an hour from Key West and 15 minutes from the closest stores of Big Pine.The owner was very responsive. The use a third party (iTrip) app added an additional layer to the communication but was not a problem. We had a wonderful, restful time there.

We loved the property! The private dock and ramp was amazing. All my kids caught countless snapper and baracuda from the dock each day and night. Walt was a fantastic property manager and even helped us level our boat onto the trailer in the strong current on the way out. Great experience here in Little Torch and would highly recomend!

The house had a magnificent view of the ocean, it had every thing we needed. We fished every day, was easy getting in and out of canal. Would love to come back.

We really enjoyed our stay in Summerland Key for the month of February. The house was on a very private street and was quite spacious. The master bed and bath are quite large. The master has a king bed and a good-sized closet in the bathroom area. There is access to the front patio from the master bedroom. The master bath has a large shower. Access to the second bedroom/den is off the kitchen. This room has a sofa that can be converted to a bed and has a small desk. There is another small room that has bunk beds. The second bathroom is located off the entrance area from the garage. It also has a shower. This bathroom is also accessible from the bedroom/den. The house was well-equipped, and the appliances worked well. The living room area had a couch and two chairs. The TV set was large and worked well. This was a working vacation for my husband, so he set up his work area on the dining room table with a view of the back patio and ocean. The internet was good, and the speed of the connection was adequate for our purposes. The view from the back patio was very nice. The patio had many chairs, small tables, and a propane fire pit. We did not have use of the garage during our stay but there was plenty of room to park in the driveway. The washer and dryer were in the garage. The house did not have central air/heat but had two individual units. One in the living/kitchen area and one in the master bedroom. The area is beautiful, clean, and safe.

We had an absolute amazing time staying at Ellen’s home. Ellen was a great host and was always available for any questions we had! The location was perfect for our family, only about a 25 minute drive into key west if you want to be by the action but far enough that you get to enjoy the quiet. Large property with a great pool and perfect dock if you rent a boat/jet-ski. Everything in the home was immaculate and very comfortable. This home was truly perfect and we are looking forward to staying here again in the future.

If you want a secluded getaway in the Florida Keys, this home is perfect. With only one neighbor next door, this is also a quiet place removed from the built-up areas. The screened porch was a great place to hang out to enjoy the vast water view. The long pier and dock was a good place to fish and swim. We not only caught fish, but also saw other marine life including stingrays, sharks & lobsters. The home was ideal for two couples with the 2 separated bedrooms and 2 baths. The kitchen was fine for the cooking we did and we also used the gas grill, which worked well. There was a Win Dixie on nearby Big Pine Key where we shopped for groceries. One day we went to Key West which was only a 45 minute drive. We all enjoyed our week here and would love to return someday.
