Enjoy the sunrise while sitting on one of two terraces while sipping your morning coffee in the exclusive part of Kawama Yacht Club overlooking the Marina and Ocean. Enjoy the many choices for the day: Kayaking or paddle boarding just 20 steps from your door, walking to the south beach just 100 yards away, or walking to the beach jetty just across the marina. Or take a swim/snorkel in our swimmable lagoon or one of our two pools. Then bring a glass of wine to watch the breathtaking sunsets from our oceanfront private beach or 400’ jetty.
Uniquely situated and nestled in a secluded and quiet tropical setting along a private and exclusive strip in Kawama Yacht Club with breathtaking views of the marina and ocean views.

Other Things to Note:
DEEP WATER MARINA: I do not have a slip. An on-site harbormaster will help you with your boating and slip rentals and I can give you the contact info. The Marina accommodates all types of boats from jet skis to yachts. Boats require $300,000 Liability Insurance in the name of the person on the contract for the rental. And if there is room in boat storage for your trailer or boat, you can use it; otherwise, you will need to find parking off the property. This usually is not an issue, but you know if it becomes one. Summer is a high season for boat usage. It's first come, first serve on trailer/boat parking. I suggest trying Pilot House Marina as another option, or Pennekamp State Park or the Caribbean Club.

Please note that the description and photos are accurate! As you can tell from my past guest reviews, this is an immaculate and comfy townhouse. I hope you find the best fit for your vacation needs and I do not want you disappointed. This is your vacation home away from home. It may have a light out (things happen but I provide many bulbs in the closet) or a dirty filter in the AC (I may have forgotten to change it last month)……things happen, but I'm here to fix it if needed. If you're here to enjoy the Florida Keys, this is perfect for you.…….relax, and enjoy.
Please do your research. If you are expecting a white sandy beach with waves, go to the West Coast of Florida or South Florida. Stay in the Keys if you want to be ON the water as we say here in the Keys. The best snorkeling, fishing, and diving in the world! Or go to a hotel or public park where they ship in sand. We have ocean access with a sandy area that steps into the ocean. The water in the Keys is shallow and only sea grass and sand until you get out to the reef—plenty of marine life. The area is wonderful for kayaking or paddle boarding through the mangroves. The closest parks are Founders Park, Harry Harris Park or Pennekamp State Park.
Two Cars are Permitted by HOA rules. Free Parking
It is suggested that travel insurance be purchased, as hurricane season is from June 1 to Dec 1, and there will be no refunds for canceled bookings due to hurricanes or mandatory evacuations.
If using the convertible chairs, please pull out the support legs on BOTH sides.
Sorry No Pets & No Smoking!
Please follow all house rules posted on Airbnb and in the guestbook.
Check-in is 4 pm and checkout is 10 am. I am not able to honor early check-in requests or late checkout requests. I abide by all CDC cleaning guidelines which require the unit to be completely vacant for a timeframe. Unfortunately, this prevents me from honoring late checkout and early check-in requests. Please adjust your travel day.
