We had an absolutely phenomenal stay at The Islander for a week, and without a doubt, this place deserves a solid 5-star review. First off, the location is unbeatable—right in the heart of the Keys, close to restaurants, beaches, fishing spots, and pretty much anything else you might want to do. The sunsets over the water are incredible, and we loved lounging on the outdoor decks in the comfy seats and dining outside.
The house itself is gorgeous and there wasn't a speck of dust to be found. It is stocked with everything you could possibly need while on vacation, including a plethora of welcome snacks and drinks. We couldn't stop talking about how easy it was to find whatever we wanted or needed. The kitchen is fully equipped and labeled with all the cooking utensils, dishware, storage containers for leftovers, and more. The pool area was great too, with tons of fun stuff like pool noodles, games, bluetooth speaker, quality beach chairs/umbrella, ping pong table (including paddles/balls), a portable cooler, freezers, fishing gear, comfy seating options, a grill and prep table, snorkeling gear, and even beach toys for kids. They thought of everything. It's clear the owners have put a lot of thought into what guests might need while on vacation, making it perfect for both adult groups and families.
A shoutout to the property manager, Jessieca, who was super helpful and always ready to answer any questions and help out prior to our arrival, and at all times during our stay. She is phenomenal, and even swung by on our first day with a bag of ice for the freezers downstairs. I can't say enough good things about her and the service she provides.
We’re already thinking about planning our next family trip and wouldn’t hesitate to book here again. If you’re thinking about a trip to the Keys, this place is a no-brainer! It's an A-plus experience, and all the little things and details that Jessieca and team do make this place not one of, but THE best. The entire experience was simply incredible.
