Sunset Peninsula—a multi-family, original, Florida Keys waterfront retreat!

Welcome to the Sunset Peninsula! This gated, multi-family compound is perfect for those traveling in larger groups with family and/or friends who want to share great memories while maintaining their privacy. This unique and private tropical oasis welcomes all guests with lush vegetation uniquely indigenous to our fragile ecosystem. The paved driveway adds appeal and functionality, making parking for all an easy convenience. Beyond the gate, you will notice a private half ramp where small boats, jet skis, or kayaks could be launched. Often referred to as the "cruise-ship shaped" house, this solidly built, all concrete home, offers a 3 bedroom/2 bath main house (2/1 up, 1/1 master quarters down), and a separate, recently renovated 2/2 ground level/ranch style apartment. For chefs who wish to indulge their guests, the property is equipped with 2 full kitchens and a small galley. The roof top deck imparts a great vantage point for our amazing sunsets, and levered pergolas provide a great backdrop for entertaining under the sun, moon, or stars. Upstairs, the wrap around deck overlooks the canal breaming with Florida Keys marine life including dolphins, manatees and countless fish. Downstairs, the poolside provides relaxing ambience with plenty of space to lounge, read a book, take a nap, or catch up with one another. Interested in fishing, boating and/or other water sports? No problem! The property boasts over 195 ft of water frontage with deep-water dockage and open water-views. At sunset, the underwater light show begins as Green Blob lights expose backyard marine fauna including 3-4 foot tarpons and sleepy mangrove snappers. Why drive to breakfast/lunch/dinner when you can boat there? Located 2 minutes away from both the Tavernier and Snake creeks, bay/ocean access to your favorite waterfront restaurant or to an intimate picnic on the water is quick and easy. Heading to the Sandbar for some fun? The Whale Harbor Channel Bridge is within a 5 minute boat ride. For guests launching larger boats, Harry Harris Park is close by and there is ample space to park your trailer and/or RV on the compound safe and sound. The miniature putting green is perfect for those days you feel like staying in and practicing, day or night. Kayaks, electric bikes, and fishing poles are available for our guests. The waterfront, heated/chilled saline pool showcases amazing sunset views and offers a perfect place to relax after a day of water play. If you want to give the sea legs a rest, there are plenty of restaurants, pubs, and shops nearby to satisfy all your senses. CVS, Winn Dixie/Aldi, ACE Hardware, the Tavernier Cinema, and Mariner's Hospital are a stone's throw away over the Tavernier Bridge. Nestled in the heart of Indian Waterways, this truly unique estate is in one of the Key's premier neighborhoods and combines classic Florida Keys flavor with modern day comforts for all guests to enjoy.

Great location with plenty of room for the family
We were impressed the moment we arrived at the property. Beautiful grounds and an awesome pool. Carmen was very responsive to the few questions I had and even ordered a bait freezer for the property knowing we were going down to fish. Can’t wait to go back!
