This boutique cottage-based resort is a gem. We found the owners/operators (Steve & Sue) to be gracious and super-friendly as they seek to accommodate their guests and keep everything looking picture-perfect. It's a bit of paradise!

Lovely oasis just outside key largo. It’s a strip of land where there’s 10 individual bungalows and ours was beautifully furnished. The grounds are well lit & the strip leads down to private access to a beach / marina which provides paddle boards / canoes & pedaloes. There’s hardly any access to beach / marina in key largo or around & all properties section off their own portion of the water. Bed very comfy & very relaxing. Hosts very friendly too. Thoroughly recommended.

this is probably the best maintained beautiful little resort cabana style inn. the property is well situated with a several different areas to hang out and swim or sun. parking is limited to guest so having friends over that are not booked in is not going to work well nor does the management really like it. but very lovely and a great place to hang out.

The property was beautiful and excellently maintained. Staff was dedicated, friendly, and helpful. Only negative was a slight unusual odor in our unit. While compact, the unit managed to have what was needed for a comfortable stay. A comfortable reading chair would be a nice addition.
