We found this hotel on a website for pets and travel. I called a large luxary hotel in Islamorada and asked for recomendations for families traveling with pets. They gave me the name of this wonderful piece of paradise! In fact, this is where she puts her family when they visit. It is a small hotel with one upstairs unit... more

This was my second stay, (would.ve been my third, but they were booked last try). Kathy & Bob are INCREDIBLE !!!!!!

Great find....Well maintained and relaxing place to stay. The Manager was very pleasant and proud of the property. Certainly a place to seek out while in the Keys. more

My husband, our Boston Terriers and I stayed here for one night on 5/24. I had flown into Miami and our ultimate destination was Key West. This was a good stopping point. Kathy was very friendly and our two dogs were welcomed and even got to run around a bit with the resident Jack Russell. Our room was clean and... more

The natural beauty of the Keys is present in every... more
