About this property

Paradise in Plantation Key/Deep Water Canal House/Boat Dock/MM 89

  • Paradise in Plantation Key. If you are looking to relax and learn about “Keys Time” you are looking in the right area! Sometimes I come down and relax on the water and others I am paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, scuba diving etc. It is the epitome of true mental relief.

    My home is conveniently located at Mile Marker 89. It is the upstairs unit only. The downstairs is not available for rental. The units are separate with there own private entrances. If you are planning to bring your boat great! They are welcome, I have plenty of parking at the residence. This is a 28 day rental. This is a pet free rental - we do not allow pets on the property.

    There is room for your boat and recreational watercraft with 45 feet of dock space available in this deep water canal however, you will need to load it at a local ramp. The closest ramp and pool is at Founders Park (MM 87).

    Founders Park offers activity or relaxation for the whole family. An Olympic-sized pool with diving area, a shallow water beach, water sports rentals, ball fields, fishing jetty, bocce, tennis and basketball courts, vita course with 18 exercise stations, multi-purpose path, skate park and dog park all are within the 40-acre park. Fees may apply. But seriously if you're in the Keys…no pool…... GO TO THE BEACH OR OUT ON THE WATER!

    Florida Bay is just minutes away with one turn onto the head canal. Waterfront marina or convenient store is available for fueling and bait at the basin of the head canal. You are welcome to fish from the dock. I have a fish cleaning station available. You will see all types of sea life in our canal.
    You can walk to a local grocery store for supplies. The nice people at Payfair will prepare you some delicious subs and wrap them for the cooler. They are also known to be one of the best butcher shops in the area. They always have a very nice selection of meat if you didn’t catch your dinner! ;) Or you can walk over to 'Craig's Restaurant' for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Make sure you try the famous fish sandwich YUM!! Hope to hear from you soon.

Wonderful vacation

Beautiful, clean upstairs condo. Easily accessible to restaurants and the ocean (best fish sandwich at Captain Graig’s right across the street); was able to keep our 32 foot Edgewater boat in the canal behind the condo; nest AC kept it nice and cool when return back after hot days, property manager Tresa was amazing to work with; definitely will be returning!!

Scuba diving trip

Here from Wisconsin for a fall diving trip. While I worked remotely, my husband enjoyed diving. Tresa was absolutely a dream to work with. Any questions I had were responded to within minutes. The property is well maintained and has everything you need. Absolutely would stay here again. Thanks.

Great Location for Fishermen

The property had everything we needed to get to the fishing in the Tavernier/Islamorada area. We had boat docking in a deep canal with direct access to the Florida Bay (Gulf of Mexico) and a short ride to the ocean via Tavernier Creek. A manatee and her calf occupied the canal which was fun to watch but we needed to be cautious with the boat not to injure the animals. Bait shops, grocery stores and restaurants are close by. The lodging was clean and comfortable. The rental is on the second story so be ready and fit to climb some stairs. Tresa was a great host and we had a great stay.

FL Keys House

House and host were great but the fridge didn’t work, no lights in the fans worked, the cleaning people put the towels in the bedroom dresser drawer (we had to search for them) instead of under the bathroom sink, my son said the 2nd bedroom bed was “not good”, the kitchen was missing a strainer and measuring cups. Sounds like I’m dogging on the house but really all of these issues are easily corrected.

Wonderful host and very accommodating. The house is nice and well taken care of,m.

I loved everything about our stay other then the cleaning company really dropped the ball. Linens were stopped from beds and left laying on the floor (dirty) in front of the washing machine, dust/dirt on the floor, etc. We had to rush around late at night to get laundry detergent to wash the linens so we could sleep as well as spent 2 hours cleaning the house and disinfecting due to the poor job done by the cleaning agency. The house was in great shape and well taken care of. The host was great and very accommodating. I would definitely be willing to stay there again as long as the cleaning is more thourough.

Awesome place and location

My son and I and my father in law came down from Michigan and brought our boat with us to enjoy some scuba diving. Staying at Tresa’s place made our experience that much more enjoyable. We were able to dock our boat right behind where we were staying. And when we would arrive from a long day out on the water, we were able to dock our boat and walk right into where we were staying to cool off. Tresa’s place is very nice and very clean. It is in a location that is close to every where we needed to be at as well. She was easy to communicate with and helped make our experience that much better.

Perfect location

We loved our stay at this property. The owners were friendly, helpful and great at communicating. The location is perfect. You can walk across the street to eat at a locally owned restaurant, get a visitors pass to Founder's Park, you're close to a grocery store, pharmacy, local shops and restaurants. You'll even see a few manatee swim up to the dock. We had the best trip, and will be booking future trips to stay at this property.

Amazing Month!!!

We arrived on July 8th and began a month we will never forget. The accommodations were wonderful, island theme, as expected. The balcony was well used for all meals for the most part, but seating inside was available. The kitchen had all the necessary equipment for cooking needs, roomy fridge, dishwasher (but never used) and breakfast bar. It was used for my computer to do some business while there. The canal was great feature. We had the opportunity to watch green herons be fed and learn to fly, iguanas were plentiful (locals don't like them) and we enjoyed them, had a manatee come in twice and we "watered" them and even saw 2 nurse sharks. Being a Facebook fool for fun stuff, and loving my iPhone/Camera, captured all on it and friends so enjoyed our trip along with us. Thank you Anne and Joe PS going back!!!

Great location convnient for boat owners

The location is perfect! We spend the moth of June and had our boat which was a perfect amenity to have the house accommodate our "water toys" as well as the restaurant across the street cook our catch. Safe and friendly neighborhood. The house has everything you need so don't over pack, all you need is your swimsuit, shorts, flip-flops and sunblock. Friendly owners and daily Manatee visits...

An amazing place and amazing location

The pictures dont do this house justice. Very nice layout and everything you need is already there. This was our first vbro rental and this was the best case senario, a very nice house better than described with everything so nearby that you can walk to most places yet had a smalltown feel. I would recommend this jewel to anyone. My wife enjoyed the manatees the most out of everything we did in the 10 days we were there. They showed up at random right off of the private dock. Jerry

Fantastic Location

What a great find. Quiet spot but close enough to many activities. Snorkeling at John Pennekamp was fun, breakfast at Made 2 Order, and dinner at Islamd Grill was good. As previous renter mentioned, we also had visitors..... Manatees almost every day in the canal. You can launch your boat at Founders Park (but no PWC) and an ok beach. I would recommend the beach at Harry Harris park just 2 miles North. The owners whom we met at the tail end of the trip were extremely friendly. We will be back!

I wanted to take the time to let the owners know what a wonderful time we all had staying at their place in the beautiful Florida Keys. We were fortunate enough to meet both Anna and Joe towards the end of our stay. They are great people. This home is located in the perfect spot because it allows you to access all points of interest in the Florida Keys really quick. The beaches are outstanding and not far. Same goes with the fishing you can access both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic. Perfect spot to stay if you are a diver or snorkeler. Like others have mentioned the dock is ideal if you are traveling with a boat. I would stay here again and again no complaints.

Excellent for boaters!

If you are looking for a place to keep your boat while you vacation, this place is perfect! We have a 33' foot Hydra-Sport Express and the boat parking was perfect! Clean and well furnished. The apt is located in a convenient spot and it's in a great location if you want to sport or fish around in Islamorada, and the surrounding keys. A great restaurant is right across the street too!
