CHECK OUT A FEW WORDS FROM THE OWNERS BELOW INITIAL INFORMATION...

4 bed/5 bath beachfront on over 1 acre with a private beach, heated pool & dock
Separate upstairs Den area sleeps up to 6 kids.

* 7 Day minimum rental - Saturday to Saturday *
SORRY NO WEDDINGS OR LARGE EVENTS ALLOWED
Max 8 adults + 4 children
You must be 25 years+ to rent this home and must be staying for the duration of the rental.

Our house is one of the most highly sought-after vacation homes in Islamorada that regularly books years in advance. The Last Resort is a firm favorite of multi-generational families and friends looking to create memorable moments that last a lifetime in a lush, private, and tropical setting.

As owners, we have spent 23+ years providing the best possible Keys experience for guests. Michele handles the day-to-day operation of the property and ensures that guests have everything needed for a stress-free vacation. We believe that guests should not have to worry about 'extra or hidden' charges so our rates INCLUDE many of the things other vacation rentals charge for such as pool heat, BBQ gas, kayaks, and baby equipment. Though the property is self-catering we supply many household items so you don't have to worry about purchasing them, such as laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, garbage bags, kitchen paper, cleaning fluids, etc.

We also don't charge a security deposit or pet fee. We operate on the honor & integrity system, giving our guests an authentic Keys experience that keeps them returning year after year as repeats.

From years of international travel with our kids, one of my pet peeves was the amount of equipment that I had to pack, just to go on vacation. Another was arriving at houses that were sparsely stocked or having to rent additional equipment. Greg and I made the commitment to provide as many supplies and equipment for our guests, from all kitchen equipment to baby equipment, from hairdryers & straighteners to lifejackets and water shoes, all to alleviate the need for guests to stuff their suitcases and truly make it a 'pack your shorts, flip-flops & toothbrush' kind of house.

The Last Resort is truly in a beautiful setting and we look forward to the opportunity to host you, your family, and your friends someday.

Beautiful historic feel, well appointed
A beautiful house and really well appointed. It is rare that you rent a property with the level of dishware, silverware and kitchen tools that this place has. Also, the decoration made you feel at home, not like you were inside a rental. The porch is great for sitting and the view was wonderful. We did have strong winds that pushed alot of sargassum on the beach the first day. It was not cleared until our final day. That would be the only challenge that we experienced.

Best Week Ever!
We had an absolutely AMAZING stay at The Last Resort! Our family of eleven (6 adults and 5 teens) gathered to celebrate Christmas and our 50th wedding anniversary. The house and property turned out to be the perfect location for this occasion - the large (yet cozy) house, the idyllic ocean-front setting, the awesome sunrises from the perfect porch, an incredible heated pool, and so many extras too numerous to list! Heartfelt thanks to Michele for going above and beyond to make our stay so comfortable and fabulous! We couldn't have asked for a better host, location, amenities, and accommodations! THANK YOU SO MUCH, Michele and Greg! Our warm memories of our stay at The Last Resort will be forever in our hearts as one of the best weeks our family has ever had together!

Magical
The drive up the long circular driveway to this beautiful home made us instantly relax. When we walked up the porch steps and in the front door we were faced with an amazing view of the calm ocean and palm trees on the sandy beach and we knew it was going to be a good vacation. The house is spacious and beautifully appointed. The pool and outdoor seating and dining were great. Everything we needed was at the ready. There were two...or more...of everything in the kitchen.There were lots of activities for all ages in the area. Our children arranged for a bagpiper to play from the upper deck and then on the beach on our last night and it was a magical way to end a magical week. We all highly recommend this property!!

Island Fun in the Hot Sun
This property is amazing!! The owners have STOCKED this thing. Don't bring a beach or pool towel, there are plenty ready to go. Beach toys, pool toys, Kayaks, Beach Chairs, Grill (with Propane and back up tanks). Are you traveling with young children (we had a 6 month old in our party)? They have what you need, high chairs, swings, nursery area, stroller, etc... The kitchen has a ton of supplies as well, spices, appliances, aluminum foil, parchment paper, and more. This place has 2 washing machines and 2 dryers so just bring a few things, pack light, and use the wash often, be a tourist! Communication with the property before during and after was quick, easy and responsive. They truly want you to have a good time and focus on your vacation. Make sure to take advantage of all the tours and offerings Robbie's has while on the island. Definitely a good time there. Get in line early, there is a reason this property is hard to book and stays busy (we booked a year in advance). You will enjoy your stay!! Thanks Michelle and crew, we had a blast!!!

Amazing Experience
The Last Resort is amazing, from the location to the layout of the house, how well it is stocked with all the essentials and the ease it was to communicate with Michele. The layout of the house is fantastic and extremely comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals for large groups. Outside the pool is a great spot to hangout after being out on the water. We rented a boat for the week of our rental and kept it in the creek at the Last Resort’s Dock which is a great amenity if you would like to have a boat on vacation. There were also standup paddle boards, kayaks and bikes available. I would highly recommend this property as Michele and Greg have thought of everything to make for an unforgetable vacation.

We were a family of 7. We had a great time in the pool, really enjoyed the back porch with the breeze all day long. We were not able to walk into the water from the beach because of the seaweed but walked out onto to the dock. House had everything. Instacart delivers so we only left for dinner a few times. Great time!

First Resort
The Last Resort was spectacular. Our adult children vacationing with us agreed it was an 11 out of 10. That back porch on the water was our home for all hours throughout each day. The interior of the house was beautiful and new. We’ve never had a better equipped and better stocked kitchen in a vacation rental. This house in Islamorada is a perfect combination. And Michele our host was perfect in every way.

This property is absolutely perfect. With the beach and the pool and so many different spots to enjoy sunrises and afternoon cocktails, you just can’t go wrong. The house is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need- best stocked rental we’ve ever stayed in. The bathrooms are luxurious and although the house itself is older, it’s a historic property so we found this to be charming and sweet. We loved the kayaks and the bikes. Robbie’s was so close for snorkeling and feeding the tarpons- kids loved this! Such a delight to spend a week at the Last Resort!

Fabulous setting, fabulous property, and all the amenities needed.
Private large lot right on the water. We had 4 adults and 4 kids and we had plenty of room. The master bedrooms are wonderful en suites, and the massive kids room easily accommodated 3 of the 4 kids. (The teenager naturally chose a solo room. ) the large pool looking at the water was a HUGE hit with the kids. Kayaks at the property allowed for great snorkeling over the choral bottom. As it is the tropics in August, we had a rainy day on arrival and into the second morning, but after that it was sunshine and warmth the rest of our stay. The house was spotless on arrival. The landscapers came one day, as did the poolman and the property manager (Dave) who lives across the way. He gave us inside info that made us walk across the property’s access to the canal where we used his info to summon manatees. The kids were thrilled. As I said, a fabulous rental led to a fabulous family vacation

For a family of 6 and 4, this made packing a little lighter on the 10 hour trip. The property was kept immaculate and exceeded all our expectations for our vacation.
