Photos and Description of the Tavernier vacation house rental
House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2.5 Baths, (Sleeps 6)

Spend your vacation in paradise! Enjoy sunsets and panoramic, 180 degree views of the Florida Bay from the balconies of this newly-constructed (CBS construction completed in 2005) 3 bd/2.5 bath home located in the quiet fishing community of Hammer Point at MM 93 just 60 miles from Miami and 90 miles from Key West. This home offers easy ocean access -- just minutes from Tavernier Creek -- and sits on wide, deep water swimming canals. Relax in one of the many hammocks around the property or take a swim in the refreshing in-ground pool. A double Kayak and bikes are available for your use as well as a charcoal BBQ grill. 3 bedrooms plus two bathrooms are on the first level and the great room/kitchen/ bar and 1/2 bath are on the top floor with wrap around balconies. The views and sunsets are breathtaking. Book your paradise vacation now!

Pets under 30 lbs. are welcome and this house is kid friendly (we have three kids!) and loaded with board games, movies, and Nintendo systems. There is a state-of-the-art stereo system wired in every room and flat screen TV's in most of the rooms.

The home was constructed in 2005 and, as you can see from the pictures, no expense was spared. Impact doors and windows throughout; top level had sliding glass doors on three walls that open up all of the walls like a beach house; stainless steel appliances; granite tops; wood and slate floors; dumbwaiter; stereo system in each room; and inverted layout (the living area is on the top level to maximize the views of the Bay). This is one of the coolest places you'll see in the Keys in one of the best areas (right in between Key Largo and Islamorada)!

Beds: 1 King in the Master bedroom, 2 Dbl beds in one bedroom, plus two double pull out sofas, one in the third bedroom and one in the upstairs living room.

Dock space is available but with a 22' limit on boat size. Please inquire. All water vessels must be approved prior to signing contract.

About The Owner

My husband, myself and our three boys are Miami residents who vacation at our home away from home as often as we can. It is an easy drive, just an hour from Miami, and it is truly paradise. Once you cross over the Jewfish Creek bridge and see the crystal clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean, you are nearly home. We hope you enjoy it as much as our family does.

The Owner purchased this house in 2008
Why The Owner chose Tavernier

We chose to buy this property because we wanted a nice getaway vacation spot to enjoy some relaxation with our three children away from the hectic pace of Miami. Our house is just an hour drive from Miami and less than 2 hours from Key West. We had a previous home in Key Largo, but we found ourselves driving to Islamorada (25 minutes) too often. Living in Islamorada is too far from Miami, so this place -- in Tavernier -- is right in the middle of Key Largo and Islamorada. The community is very small and cozy (only 200 homes), so it's very nice for biking or walking your dog. The canals have crystal blue water and are known as 'swimming canals.' There is no better location.

What makes this house unique

Many things you will enjoy while staying at our house are the beautiful panoramic bay views and sunsets offered from our wrap around balconies. There are bikes and a kayak available for you to use as well. Take a dip in the refreshing in ground pool or relax in a hammock. Snorkeling, Scuba diving, and fishing are some of the many activities you can enjoy nearby as well as fantastic restaurants featuring local seafood.

AWESOME PLACE

Submitted: April 1, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Had the pleasure of spending 4 nights in this FANTASTIC home! We were all VERY pleased with the TERRIFIC PANORAMIC VIEWS, the warmth and openness of the entire home. You will not want to leave the upstairs room as you would not want to miss the SUNSETS!!!! Very KID FRIENDLY. They enjoyed seeing the manatees and huge tarpons! We preferred to grill out and enjoy the home as opposed to eating out!! Would highly recommend!!

Panoramic Views

5 of 5
Submitted: February 22, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
What's not to like! We had 43 days (30 at this property) and 1 day of rain, with temps typically in the 80's. This allowed the true value of this place to really shine.....the ability to open up three sides of the third floor living area to the nicest panoramic views we have seen in a while. Many hours were spent watching the resident manatees and tarpon from the decks on the second floor (bedrooms) and third floor. In the land of single/double wides either raised or not, this house stands alone. There were many nights when we just decided to stay in and dine on the deck or just inside rather than go to the many fine resturants in the area. Sunset became a must see event simply because of the view from this house. My father (a well traveled 92yo WWII navy vet) said they were the nicest he has ever seen.
Everything in the house is as depicted in the photos and description. It is well situated in the area with easy access to just about everything. The owner was readily accessible and immediately took care of some minor descrepiencies. Overall ...this is a very comfortable, attractively decorated home and we highly recommend it. We will be back.

Sunset Heaven

Submitted: August 7, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
My husband, daughter and I had an incredible vacation at this house in Hammer Point. The house was decorated beautifully and truly had the most beautiful sunset views,I hated to miss them if we were out for the evening. The area was convenient to everything and Natalie gave some great recommendations for restaurants in the area. Really enjoyed Marker 88 for dinner the first night. We had our boat with us and found it a short and relaxing ride thru Tavernier Creek to get the Atlantic and after each day of diving, fishing, or snorkeling, we came back to the perfect size pool to cool off with a drink in hand. The desciption and pictures of this house are extremely accurate and we will definetly come back to stay in the future. Thank you for a great vacation!

Comment Text: Excellent location to enjoy beautiful
sunsets and time out on the water! The views from
the house were spectacular; especially great from
one of several hammocks. This house had all the
amenities of home including, but not limited to: lots
of board games, great space for entertaining,
stereo speakers wired throughout and beautiful,
comfortable decorations. We enjoyed our stay and
know you will too.
Owner's Response: Thanks Susan, It was a pleasure having you and your family as guests in our home. Please come visit again.
Best Regards, Natalie and Jeff
