About this property

Duck Key waterfront villa with private pool, kayak, SUP

  • Make vacation wishes come true at this two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath Duck Key waterfront villa. Set right on a canal in the heart of the Florida Keys, this lovely retreat features shimmering water views. Take in the beautiful vistas from the private pool or head directly to the water to launch the provided kayak and paddleboard. The beauty of this location is matched only by its convenience - find easy walkability to a nearby marina, spa, restaurant, and watersport adventures. Contemporary furnishings, cool tile flooring, and ample natural light create a warm and welcoming vibe throughout the home. Unwind in the living area, furnished with a sofa bed and armchair. Watch favorite shows on the 42-inch HDTV, or simply slide open the glass doors to let in the fresh breeze.

    Whip up tasty meals in the well-equipped kitchen, detailed with pristine pearl blue granite countertops and a full suite of stainless steel appliances. Sip morning coffee at the kitchen bar, and dine together in the elegant dining space. Between the queen sofa bed in the living area and two bedrooms on the top floor, this two-story home has more than enough space to accommodate guests. Both bedrooms have a 32-inch HDTV and a balcony with seating. Find quiet privacy in the main suite, outfitted with an en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Step out to the main balcony and take in the glistening views of the pool and canal. Sleep soundly in another queen bed in the second bedroom. The guest bathroom on this floor is configured with a tub/shower combination. Providing added convenience, a half bath is located on the first floor.

    Enjoy sparkling water views from your private pool. This gated area includes a covered poolside patio with loungers, a cushioned loveseat, and chairs. For adventures on the water, take advantage of the provided kayak and paddleboard, or fish directly from your backyard. Luxe amenities include a fishing kayak and a paddleboard (life jackets included) - all can be launched right from your own yard! Extra perks include complimentary WiFi and a washer/dryer are provided.

    Dock or rent a boat at Duck Key Marina - you'll find boat slips and 20-foot to 30-foot boats all within an easy two-minute walk from home. Book a sunset cruise, a group snorkeling tour, and a private boat charter at Sole Watersports. Or, swim with the dolphins at Dolphin Connection. For an afternoon of pampering, treat yourself to a visit to award-winning Calm Waters Spa or squeeze in a workout and purchase a day pass at the nearby fitness center. All locations are within a five-minute stroll. When dining out, you'll find Angler and Ale within a three-minute walk. Additional excellent eateries within a short drive include Island Fish Company and Sunset Grille.

The perfect weekend getaway

This was a fantastic property for two couples looking for a long weekend getaway. The location was fantastic - easy drive to Marathon, walking distance to Hawks Cay’s public restaurant and marina, private access to the canal. The private pool was big enough for four adults to cool off from the Florida sun and humidity. A great stay!

Wonderful stay

We loved the space in the unit, very roomy. The pool was a great bonus. My favorite part was the opening in the trees and the walk to the gorgeous water. We saw parrotfish, shrimp, birds, and lizards there.

Great Stay at 5115 Palm Villa, Duck Key

Had the whole family stay for four days in mid-October and it was gorgeous. The villa was lovely, clean, and had all the amenities we expected. Kids loved the complimentary kayak and paddle board. Beds were comfy and our son even noted the pull-out couch was comfortable as well.

Beautiful Tranquility

Loved the view of the canal from the patio. The water was a beautiful milky aquamarine color. We could have stayed there watching the water all night.

The property has potential but needs A lot of maintenance and upgrades. Also wasn’t very clean. In addition since they do not participate of hawks cay resort program you can’t enjoy the area. I stayed in this area and other owners are part of the program so you can enjoy the amenities around

Great place for a get away

We really enjoyed the time we spent in this property and Duck Key. It was away from the busyness of Marathon, but a short enough drive to enjoy the sites. We particularly enjoyed the pool on the deck and spent many hours there reading and relaxing. Kitchen was fully stocked with all we needed to prepare meals. If we go back to the area we will likely rent this property again.

We hated to leave

The property was clean and well maintained. It was convenient to everything we wanted to do (fishing, kayaking, snorkeling, eating). It was great being able to launch the kayaks directly from the back yard. And also do some swimming and snorkeling right there as well. The private pool was a nice feature. We would definitely return.

Fantastic Keys Vacation

My wife and our friends wanted to come down and explore the Keys. So many other Vrbo options were so expensive but luckily we found this listing on Duck Key. It is basically in the middle of the Keys section off the highway and it provided such an easy way of exploring the various Keys without feeling like we were in the car the whole time. We loved unwinding in the personal pool on the patio after a nice day of exploring along with having some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets that we have ever experienced. If you are looking for a place to stay to explore the Keys, then stay here!

Quiet spot

The property was beautiful. The backyard was a fun spot to watch nature and peek for passing by sea creatures in the channel!! The king Mattress was awful to sleep on, the knife set was dull, the 4 slice toaster only worked on one side and the body board has some concerning cracks so we didnt get a chance to enjoy that amenity

Excellent management, perfect location

Lovely condo on duck cay. Everything we needed was there, raised small concern and it was dealt with within 48 hours. Highly recommend staying in the middle keys for access to all activities. Only thing I didn’t realize is that there was no direct access to water for fishing. Had to walk down to end of the row of condos.

Perfect spot for a Florida Keys vacation!

We LOVED this gem of a villa for our family of four! Staying on Duck Key was the perfect location to be able to explore different parts of the Florida Keys each day during our stay. While the house is not huge, the kitchen, den and half bathroom downstairs along with the two bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs was just the right size for us. Our daughters loved the pool and using the paddleboard and kayak in the channel and harbor right behind the house. A short 1-minute walk behind the house toward the harbor is the perfect spot to watch a beautiful sunset each night. Having a washer and dryer was so helpful! We highly recommend this villa and look forward to returning again one day!

Great Place

The townhouse was very clean inside and outside, especially the pool. The boys had fun fishing right outside the canal that leads into the bay. There are some great mangrove snappers to catch and eat. Overall the place was small, but we made it work. The only negative thing I have to say is that I wish there was a squidgy to help remove some of the water in the patio area. Due to the kids splashing in the pool, the patio collected a lot of water.

Centrally Located for Keys Vacation

The location of this property was ideal for everything we wanted to do (activities from Tavernier all the way down to Key West). Check in was seamless and, while there was never a need to contact the property manager, the communication from them was clear and timely. The pool, landscaping, and overall neighborhood were all lovely. Very resort-like. That said, we did take note of several maintenance issues. The kitchen chairs were wobbly (and some of the hardware was later found in a fake plant), a cupboard door's hinges were broken, the dishwasher was not secured to the countertop, and the master bathroom toilet has a leak to name a few. A few other reviews have mentioned the lack of kitchen essentials and we found that to be true. To be clear, none of these negatively affected our vacation but should be noted. Other have mentioned that the beds were uncomfortable but we had no difficulty falling asleep after our long days out in the sun. Relaxing in the pool became a near nightly ritual and whoever maintains the pool is doing a stellar job. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would book with this property again.

A nice place but had one issue!

My biggest complaint was that the maintenance man came to pick up outdoor furniture for the hurricane and instead of knocking, started putting in the door code to just let himself in. I was standing in the kitchen cooking and the others in our group watched him walk up (the blinds were open on the door so he must’ve seen us in there as well) and he did not even try knocking. We didn’t know he was needing to come in otherwise we would’ve met him at the door. That was incredibly rude and unprofessional. There was no warning from property management that someone would be coming to pick up the furniture either. Which would’ve been totally fine but a strange person feeling like they can walk in to a rental whenever they choose with no warning is not okay. However, other than that it is a nice property and in a good location to be able to day trip to other keys.
