QUICK OVERVIEW:
We offer you our clean 2 bedrooms with an extra bedroom space and 2 full expanded full bathrooms in our townhouse. It sleeps 4 to 6 very comfortably. Extra charge for more than 4 guests.

Our townhouse is nicely-appointed with a full kitchen, living room, dining room, and patio.

We have two office areas to catch up on your work... both ready desks have large dual monitors (4 in all), flexible arms, and high-end comfy exec chairs. One desk is electric adjustable height with high-end printer. (More home office details below.)

The bedrooms are on the 2nd floor and offer a quiet deep relaxing sleep in 2 king size beds. Plus we provide numerous extras to make you feel completely at home. This beautiful townhouse is fully furnished & equipped with all possible amenities.

Our townhouse is away from the main Overseas Hwy, so we are very quiet. We offer a personal semi-private backyard patio furnished with BBQ & complete outdoor patio furniture.

3 BEDROOMS:
Our vacation home has 2 separate bedrooms, with one being sub-divided with a wall and door. The master bedroom has a comfortable king-size bed (with great high-quality comforter, sheets, & pillows) & digital cable TV on wall. We get many compliments on comfort & sleep on our high-end mattress, with many asking us for the mattress brand.

The 2nd bedroom is 14’ x 13’ with a king size beds. There’s a large smart TV on wall.

The 3rd bedroom is open and has a day-bed and comfy trundle bed underneath.

EXTRAS:
The rooms have their own Comcast Xfinity Cable Smart TVs (3 in all).  Plus the living room has a foldout sofa-bed.  All very nice bedding & towels included. We have plenty of beds, but we stipulate only 6 guests. Special owner exception is required for additional guests.

BATHROOMS:
We’re proud of the most spacious master bathroom possible, with high open ceiling which shows off the natural wood beams above. The surrounding shower walls & floors are beautifully tiled & enclosed with glass & stained glass window feature. To top it off, we installed a new spa-like rain-like shower with multiple body sprays which gives the very best showering experience possible, even better than many 5-star retreats. My wife, a licensed designer, created this luxurious bathroom. We also upgraded & redesigned first floor bathroom. This included adding an awesome over-head rain shower.

KITCHEN & LIVING AREA:
Enjoy the most spacious & functional kitchen in our community. We also supplied our kitchen with just about EVERYTHING that you may need for creating delicious family meals. The kitchen has an open design that flows with the rest of the first floor. So enjoy cooking while still being engaged with everyone.   Close is a large & inviting family friendly table & entertainment area.

ENTERTAINMENT AREA:
1st floor has very comfortable open layout, which is very accommodating for families. We offer the newest entertainment technology TV / secure WiFi / Roku / cable channels. Very few homes offer high definition cable channels. We have numerous board games if you want the family to go low tech (for a change).

SEMI-PRIVATE BACKYARD:
Our backyard patio has beautiful lush landscaping. Our backyard is very private due to privacy wall and surrounding palm trees with orquids, cactus center garden, privavy wall on one side, and trellis plus more trees on the other side. Our patio is furnished with complete outdoor patio furniture (table, shade umbrella, and chairs). For the grill master, we have a very functional BBQ with two propane tanks ready to go.

WORK FROM HOME DREAM!
We created two separate full functional working areas. We have 2 desk & 2 new high-end, highly comfortable executive chair, extra 4 flat largest monitors with HDMI cables ready, keyboard/mouse, & printer. These are all ready to connect to your personal or work laptop. Desks are stocked with just about every office need, including even multiple laptop power supplies. One desk is height adjustable, so you can stand and stretch out as your work.

EXTRA AMENITIES:
We have numerous additional amenities to our vacation home. This includes 3 kayaks, some kids and adult bikes (in “AS IS condition”), different size snorkeling gear (goggles, fins, vests, & diver/snorkeling flag), 4 to 5 higher end tennis equipment, fishing gear & net, beach floats, beach chairs, picnic coolers, a large array of beach towels, beach bags, sand castle building stuff for kids, various board games, balls, Frisbees, hats, and our list keeps growing. (If not sure, just ask us.)

TOP QUALITY:
All comfortable bedding, linens, bath towels & towels included. (No cheap TP paper, or towels / linen found here.) You will all find all beds are made.

OUR SPECIAL LOCATION:
Our condo is in a private with 24-7 onsite security & yet everything is close by. Our townhouse is a very short walk to the pool & clubhouse. The big heated pool surrounded by lounge chairs, the fishing pier & private beach area. Manatees come by swimming around the community fishing pier / boat dock.

Due to our picturesque shoreline (with its small lighthouse, boats), it provides incredible daily sunset photo opps. So plan on taking your favorite drink to relax in the beach chairs in this family friendly setting as the sun goes down.

You are within walking distance to Founders Park Complex. This offers you a large Olympic sized pool with diving boards, large sandy beach, sand volleyball court, walking jogging bicycling trails, full basketball court, large soccer & baseball fields, Olympic size pool, kiddie water park & more. Plus Founders Park has full marina with rental boat dock slips available. There are numerous popular FREE to you (due to location) events at Founders Park that take place throughout the year.
Yes, this is all close by & situated in Islamorada, the Sport Fishing Capital of the World.

MORE EXTRAS:
We prepared a 3-ring binder with information about the local area (site seeing, local events, many discount coupons, maps, & more). Our home is surrounded by plenty of great places to eat. Just read our reviews & guestbook for ideas of best eateries & fun things to do. Plus we will be available for any questions via text messaging before & during your vacation.

SUPER CLEAN:
Our townhouse is kept extremely clean. Absolutely NO Smoking in unit. Sorry, no pets are allowed by condo association rules. No carpeting, just smooth high-end tiles & wood flooring, marble floors & counter, washer/dryer, screened doors. & ceiling fans to circulate the air in all rooms. (Yes, we have excellent NEW central air.)

VALUE & OUR RATES:
Compare and you'll find that we offer so much more in terms of true value and all our extras allows you to spend less. So please compare our location, actual home value, extra comfort, and the numerous amenities.

CANCELLATIONS:
Refer to the published cancellation policy. If none is shown, then I'll apply a 60-day cancellation date range. But refunds may take place if we can re-rent. Note that given enough advance notice we should be able to re-rent.

NUMBER OF GUESTS:
Our published rates are based on double/quadruple occupancy. There is charge for adding guests (yes - including children). It is a reasonable assumption that additional guests increase our costs. Therefore, we do have a slight additional daily charge per guest beyond two or four. Security will monitor the number of guests.

MONTHLY RENTAL COMMUNITY:
Islamorada & our community rules has monthly rental policies. However, we may NOT rent an entire month (28-nights), so we may be flexible & consider one single rental during that period. The fact is that we do limit the number of rentals, which allows us to be in our home away from home as often as possible.

AWESOME REVIEWS:
From a guest review: 'The condo is located in a secure, gated community. The facilities & grounds are clean & very well maintained. The condo itself was perfect for our needs. It was clean & equipped with everything we could possibly need, & we quickly felt as though we were at home. The owners were readily available to respond to any questions or concerns & went above & beyond to ensure that our stay would be a memorable one.' Another wrote 'fun at Founders Park (beach, volleyball court, baseball fields) which is walking distance next door... The sunsets are beautiful! All the beds were so comfortable & the upstairs bathroom is amazing!'

OUR GUESTS & FRIENDS:
We look forward to speaking to those that are interested in our home. Yes, we take the time to speak to all guests that visit our home. We look for folks that will take care of home & will respect our neighbors & friends.
Please feel free to ask any important question or even ask for extra clarification to help you with your decision. It's your vacation.
Since we work hard & know that every family must work & plan so much for a time away, we take your vacation experience to heart. We promise to do our best for you always.

SPECIAL OWNER NOTE:
There will be a few areas off limits since this is our permanent home. Some of items are stored. These areas will be labeled.

Through our beach home, we have been blessed to now have new friends worldwide!

Winter in Islamorada
We usually stay in Key West in March. This year we decided to try Islamorada. It was fabulous! This condo was absolutely perfect! It had everything you could possibly need for your stay. It was so comfortable and well equipped and Jose and Marcia were exceptional hosts. The mattresses were superb and the selection of spices in the kitchen made it just like home. The community was great- friendly, welcoming residents, a lovely heated pool and a short walk to the beach. What a delightful place! I didn’t give the highest rating for check in because, even though Jose did all he could, the community was having some issues and getting into the gate took a little work. I’m sure this will be cleared up soon. I also didn’t give the highest rating on accuracy of online listing because the place was even better than the pictures show! The upstairs bathroom is much more luxurious than in the pictures. It should also be noted that there is a spiral staircase that is not shown in the pictures. It is very sturdy and easy to use. If we come back to Islamorada, I will definitely try to get the same place.

About the host

My personal GoToKeys journey...
I grew up in New England and later lived in Michigan. So I appreciate our unique year round warm tropical climate.

My GoToKeys adventure has always been about building family memories by sharing special fun times. So that's what we've done. My beautiful wife and I have been married for twenty-five years. We have two awesome daughters, plus their two baby cats.

My wife is the one who showed me the importance of taking family vacations and creating our own special getaways. So we have vacationed in numerous US cities, throughout almost all the Caribbean islands, parts of Canada, honeymooned in Mexico, and traveled to a few cities in South America. Plus we have made many trips to enjoy Europe (Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Turkey, Malta and England) and South America (Argentina, Colombia, Chile, and more). Yes, we have created great vacation memories for ourselves and our families.

We discovered the Florida Keys. We fell in love with this series of incredibly beautiful chain of islands. So, now we truly hope that you will select and enjoy one of our GoToKeys vacation homes in Key Largo and Islamorada.

We extend our home to both old and new friends with a real sense of pride and humility. This is in the true classic Spanish sense of “mi casa es su casa”.

Best Regards,
Jose "GoToKeys" Grullon

Why they chose this property

We chose this property since we enjoyed snorkeling and diving, fishing, site seeing, photography, and the area’s good food and ongoing events.

We had been coming down to Islamorada & Key Largo for many years. We both dreamed of owning a second home right here in the Keys. Finally, a good friend told us about this community. We came down to visit him at his place and we simply fell in love. We saw first hand the beautiful family oriented pool and clubhouse. From the community's private boat dock, we traveled out on his boat and took in all the wonderful relaxing water adventures and returned just in time for the spectacular gulf sunset. I think that we were completely sold with that final sunset!

Having done so much traveling, we know that our community is a special place. It is so easy to just relax reading or listening to music by the pool. While there are plenty of opportunities to add excitement of the local destinations. These are as close as the dock, or Founders Park next door, or a bike ride away.

By the way, our vacation home is only a nice 1.5 hour scenic drive north to Miami and famous South Beach restaurants and activities. Plus you also head further south on a day trip Seven Mile Bridge, Bahia Honda, or Key West. To get to that special furthest southern point in US, you drive about 1 hour and 45 minutes surrounded on both sides by beautiful water scenery.

What makes this property unique

You will enjoy the numerous amenities offered by this Islamorada community, such as the bay front heated pool, which is conveniently right next to air-conditioned clubhouse and lounge, outdoor patios and community BBQ cooking areas with tiki huts, and plus two immaculate lighted tennis courts (rackets provided).
Next take a two-minute stroll over to the private sandy beach area and take a dip in the ocean water, or sit in one of the various beach chairs and just take some sun. Don’t forget to come back here and wait for the beautiful sunsets. You will treasure memories and the photos of your spectacular waterfront sunsets.
The days are as active as you want in this Islamorada community. You will see folks walking, riding bikes, or skating around the complex. You can fish alone on the pier / boat dock or just sit and read as the gulf waters surround you. You can walk over next door to Founders Park Sports Complex, which has walking and cycling trails, soccer fields, baseball fields, skate park with incredible boarding ramps, white sandy beach, Olympic size pool, special events and much more... Founders Park has marina with boat slips and ramp.
Leave all concerns behind since our place is in a private gated community, with 24 hour security. Your biggest concern is what to do each day, what music to listen to, and where to have lunch and dinner.
