Updated Waterfront Beachside Home Tavernier Key Largo
Imagine spending a month in paradise relaxing and refreshing your soul! This gated waterfront tropical estate is perfect for a romantic escape or winter retreat. Completely updated 2/2 upstairs with separate 1/1 guest quarters available upon request! Situated on a landscaped, canal front double lot with 45’ concrete dock. Just one house away from the Harris park beach and open ocean, you will have space to relax and enjoy all the keys has to offer! We are centrally located, with easy ocean access and just steps from one of Key Largo's only sandy beaches! Use our paddle boards or kayak to explore the shoreline ( we have steps built into the dock to let you walk directly into the water as you launch.) Only 4 houses in from open Atlantic ocean, you can explore Tavernier’s warm turquoise waters, and local reefs; Tavernier Key is within view from the balcony and can be reached by boat or paddle board. Hang out at its sandbar or head south to Tavernier Creek which cuts through from ocean to the “bayside” (Gulf of Mexico) just minutes south of our channel. Discover the Atlantic coastline and its boat-accessible restaurants, or head out for a day of lobstering (in season) or world-famous fishing! For those who prefer to stay closer to land, relax at the adjacent Harry Harris Park Beach which offers balmy ocean breezes, endless open-water views, sandy beach and lagoon, boat ramps, fishing, children's playground/ swings, & picnic areas. Kids of every age can find something to do! We are within minutes of shops and restaurants, as well as dolphin research center or Theater of the Sea sea life shows and entertainment and Pennekamp park! After a day exploring the beach or reefs, come back to your own piece of paradise; unwind on our screened veranda or enjoy Florida’s colorful sunsets from a hammock or Adirondack chairs with a cold drink in your hand! For those cooler winter evenings, sit back and relax at our easy to start propane fire pit! We have spotted manatees, tarpon and tropical parrot fish, and snapper below our dock; and we frequently see osprey and great white heron who fish for their dinner in our area. This private tropical estate is gated and secure; the double lot with grassy lawn provides room to set up a badminton set or relax amid Florida’s diverse foliage. Though we can fit up to 6 adults with space for 4 kids, the house works best with 1 or 2 couples who desire a relaxing quiet vacation. Begin your morning on the front porch as you watch the sunrise and sip your cup of coffee with ocean views thru the coconut-laden palms. Stroll over to the beach and gaze out at the open Atlantic Ocean as you read a book under a palm tree with your toes in the sand. Cool off in the salt water lagoon steps away at Harris park. Bring or rent a boat to enjoy fishing, diving or water skiing and tubing off of Tavernier Key and the local dive reefs! ( boaters insurance required and fees may apply for boat dockage and extra water usage ) For the water lovers, you can explore the coastline or head out a few miles east to Pickles Reef or Christ the Abyss. The upstairs space 2 bedroom/ 2 bath can sleep 6 ( king master suite, queen guest room w/it’s own bath and full pull out couch upstairs) and ask about adding the separate efficiency apartment/ 1/1 guest quarters for an additional fee if the grandkids can join you for a weekend visit. We strive for 5 stars and want to make your stay pleasant & unforgettable! Please enjoy while respecting our home and neighbors! No overnight guests without prior authorization. This private vacation home is not meant to be a Miami “party house”…if thats what you want please rent elsewhere.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Cozy and private home in paradise
The location made boat launch easy and was very close to the home. Getting to our favorite fishing spot on the reef was a quick trip and the home was cozy and comfortable with everything we needed. The hosts were very welcoming and responsive.

A perfect stay in the Keys
Beth and Dan made sure our stay was everything we expected and more. Not only is this a really nice house, they made sure you had all of the things you need that many people might forget or need an extra day to shop for. Our favorite place was the beautiful screened in patio overlooking the canal and palm trees.

Wonderful vacation
The location is perfect. The grounds of the home are absolutley beautiful and you truly do feel you are in Paradise. Being so close to Harry Harris park is a big plus as we walked over most days Also being on the canal was wonderful as we enjoyed fishing and our Grand children loved the paddle boards. The owners are terrific and available if needed. We are looking forward to returning.

Best stay yet.....
We have been doing a 6 week stay in the Keys for the past 5 years and this Island Paradise Home has been our best stay yet. The owners Beth and Dan are very accommodating and go to extra mile to make sure you're stay is a memorable one. This house easily accommodate 6 adults comfortably and is very well stocked with all yours cooking and bedding needs. The house is located on a canal with ocean access less than 1000' away. Great for a quick trip fishing both out and back in. The back dock area is great for relaxing with plenty of room for everyone, and the Harry Harris Park is just steps away from your door. The hot tub is a nice touch with a great view of the ocean. This house is located close to all the Florida Keys has to offer, from restaurants, bars, bait and tackle shops, shopping and attractions it's all just a short drive away. This is truely a gem that will NOT disappoint.
