About this house rental
Upon entering Pioneer Del Layton's private estate, you will experience spectacular sunsets and one of the most beautiful views of the Florida Bay from the beach area or, if you prefer indoors, from every room in the Layton House.. Centrally located between Islamorada and Marathon, you are moments from all water activities, state parks, museums, shops and restaurants. Swim with the dolphins at Dolphin Research Center or experience the hands-on Turtle Hospital. Kayak, swim and fish off the property. Rent jet skis for a fun tour or individually. Cross under Long Key Bridge and you are home to Hemmingway's offshore fishing. Dock your boat at the private 70+ foot dock (boat rentals available), swim in your large private circular heated sale water pool, and cook your catch at the spacious Gazebo on the 5-burner gas grill or in the huge remodeled kitchen. After dinner, enjoy a relaxing evening on the beach stargazing and roasting marshmallows for s'mores at the bonfire. Be sure to plan a day in Key West to see the sights there. We are located 1 hr. 45 minutes from Miami Intl. Airport, 1 hr. 30 minutes from Key West.

We cannot be more happy with Linda and her house. We had such a great week. The house was VERY clean, and even better than the pictures. Cannot thank you enough Linda! We'll be back FOR SURE!!

This was one of the best properties we have ever stayed in. The owner provided everything we could possibly need to make ourselves at home. She even greeted us with a loaf of homemade pumpkin bread. The gazebo was a great place to hang out during the few Florida showers we had while there. The private pool was wonderful and the sunset views from the firepit seating were breathtaking. Would highly recommend this property.

Our stay at the Layton House was everything (and more) than we could have ever expected. What a beautiful view! The house and the grounds were pristine. Linda was very responsive and available and was willing to share a wealth of information about the area. The house is immaculate and has history references on the area that is very interesting. My husband actually sat down and read one of the many books from cover to cover "Pioneer in the Florida Keys: The Life and times of Dale Layton"and found it to be very informative and interesting. Among the many amenities of THe Layton House was We enjoyed fishing; kayaking; dock access; watching the sunsets from the kitchen and master suite and the beach; other beautiful views of the ocean from different rooms in the house; a beautiful cabanna for grilling and enjouing the view; and a beautiful pool for relaxing in the heat of the day; and

We loved the Layton House - huge outdoor and indoor space, pool, fishing, kayaking, learning about the history of Layton, etc. Every night we built a fire, watching sunsets and gazing stars. My grand-kids loved swimming in the pool, fishing, swimming with dolphins, and a trip to Key West.
If you have a large family with young kids, the bedrooms would work. For adult couples, you might share Jack-and-Jill bathrooms. Overall it was one of the best vacation places. Thanks Linda!

The property is on the water in a beautiful part of the Keys with every detail considered. This is an old family home and the generational care of the property makes it a lovely and unique place to stay.
Linda is a wonderful, warm, generous and incredibly helpful host.
We literally loved every minute and hope to be back soon.

Our family of 7 enjoyed everything that the Layton House offered. The description is 100% accurate as described and the pictures don’t even do the beauty of this private oasis justice.
Breathtaking water views and lots of fun outdoor activities like fishing, kayaking, and swimming in the heated pool were some of our favorite things.
The indoor space was perfectly spacious, very clean, and very comfortable. We loved how quiet and private the house is situated. The hostess Linda was extremely welcoming and wonderful to work with. We look forward to returning!

5.0 / 5.0
We had three couples stay in the Layton house for a week in January 2024. The property is just awesome - private beach, fishing pier, huge pool, large outdoor kitchen/gazebo.
Linda the hostess is just the best! She lives next door and is always ready to provide anything needed.
The kitchen is amazing - not only functionally but also the views. The bedroom situation is the only caution. It is great for families, and tolerable for couples. The master upstairs is huge and would sleep several children with their parents. The downstairs bedrooms are smaller, share a jack and Jill bathroom. Again, great for a family but not ideal for friends/couples but not a deal breaker either. The rest of the property and Linda more than make up for any deficiencies in the bedroom layout!
5.0 / 5.0
The views and amenities at the Layton House are perfect, and Linda the property manager is awesome! The property is gorgeous and the kitchen in the house is amazing. One caveat would be that two of the bedrooms are on the smaller side and share a bathroom - not a big deal for a family but not ideal for a group of friends. As long as the bedroom space meets your needs, however, you absolutely cannot beat this place!
5.0 / 5.0
This property was amazing for our extended family Christmas getaway. The accommodations were stellar and would be good for any special occasion venue like a wedding, corporate retreat, or simply a family gathering like ours. It felt like a home away from home. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities as well as gadgets and cooking equipment. There were multiple gathering spaces. Linda was amazing from the decorated Christmas tree, special baked goods left for us, and her fore thought to help guests with deciding on excursions, places to eat, and general history of the area. The pool heater went out during our stay and she had it fixed immediately without any interruptions to our stay. The property lends to being active with swimming, kayaking, and walking/exploring the local state park to also a very serene time to watch sunsets, read, or simply sun by the water or pool. We didn’t want to leave! We saw dolphins just off our “beach” area at least 2 of our 7 days and some other sea life as well. Our visit to the near by turtle hospital and subsequent live release to the wild was an highlight to our trip. It’s very private yet located centrally to enjoy the upper keys of Key largo and Islamorada easily as well as excursions to Key West. You can’t go wrong with this property!

Place was fantastic. Very clean and comfortable. View of the water and sunsets were out of this world. Definitely reccomend this place. The owner lives on property and was very friendly and kind. She was quiet and gave us space we didnt even know she was there. 5 star

The Layton house is not to be missed! It was the perfect setting for my daughter and my low key birthday celebration. It was private and comfortable. The house, beach, property and pool were immaculate. Linda, the owner, was attentive and available if your needed anything but unless you sought her out, you wouldn’t know she lived next door. Upon arrival we were greeted by the most amazing pumpkin bread that she had baked for us! We will definitely be back!!
5.0 / 5.0
Words cannot do the justice describing the beauty of the Layton House. The sunsets will transcend your soul into tranquility. The house in spacious and the open water views make you feel like you are on a ship. Linda’s attention to detail did not go unnoticed from the softest towels to the homemade treat she brought us upon arrival. The pool is large and inviting- I cannot wait to plan another family trip to this beautiful oasis. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Our group of three couples spent a week at this wonderful home. We spent most evenings and every morning sitting around the fire pit next to the ocean. The best thing about this property besides the view, the pool and the amazing house is the absolute sense of privacy.
The host, Linda is readily available, but not intrusive at all. Communication with her was a breeze.
We all agree it was probably the most amazing place we have ever stayed. Hope to return.

We had a great time. The house was great. Best sunsets we've had in the keys and close to both islamorada and marathon. Pool and tiki hit were great for afternoon and evenings as well as fire pit right on the water. Looking forward to our next visit

This is an awesome property! We loved every minute of our stay. The owner, Linda greeted us with a fresh loaf of Pumpkin Bread upon our arrival. Nice touch! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. We enjoyed the back story of how the current property was developed and how the town of Layton came into being. The house was immaculate, grounds and pool were impeccable. Linda made sure that our stay was trouble free. There was ample information in the house regarding the local area and was very helpful in finding those hidden gems in the Keys. I highly recommend staying in this house. This was the high light of our yearly visit to the Florida Keys!

This was our first time staying at this property, and our first time in the keys. We really enjoyed it. We had several kids with us and a couple of days of cloudy and windy weather, so having the pool was a huge benefit. The layout of the rooms and bathrooms is a little unorthodox for having two families, but we made it work. Having the gazebo and the waterfront sitting area, along with the kayaks was fantastic. Linda was very helpful and we had a great time!

Our two families enjoyed staying at the Layton House and took advantage of renting a boat for the week as well. The fire pit, outdoor spaces and kitchen/ dining areas were perfect and Linda was a very hospitable host.

This beautiful oasis sits directly on the water with many benefits. Ms. Linda is a wonderful host and makes it convenient to ask questions 😊...as she lives next door. Our family has made some life-long memories in a tropical paradise. Thank you for everything!

This is a lovely home with beautiful pool, gazebo and grounds. It has everything you need, including a very well stocked kitchen. The views of sunsets can't be beaten and is an awesome location for pictures. Linda, who lives on the grounds, is a wonderful host and her pumpkin bread is truly noteworthy.!

By far the best vacation in the Keys we have ever had. This property is meticulously clean and maintained. Beautiful views. The owner was wonderful and extremely responsive. She was accommodating to any questions or needs we had. Well worth the money. I would highly recommend this property.

Layton House is in a naturally beautiful setting, to be right on the ocean, have a large, clean pool and generally close to all activities that the Florida Keys has to offer. (Kayaks were great and easy to get into and out of the water) It is a lovely home, perfect for families to cook, do laundry, relax both inside and outside. Linda, the owner and property manager is helpful and easily available. The stated number of beds (10) is accurate however it is important to note that two of the beds are off of the master bedroom in a very nice enclosed porch. (2nd floor) This area is not air conditioned. We hoped that by leaving the sliding glass doors between the master bedroom and the porch open and running the porch ceiling fans and the master bedroom ceiling fans this would cool off the porch enough for sleeping but given the hot early June weather (close to 90 each day) it didn’t work. We were able to make it work on the main floor so it was fine for our group but I do think it should be noted that this area is not air conditioned. In the winter when temps are in the 70’s it is probably fine. Overall a great experience!

We spent 2 weeks at The Layton House- one of the very best places we have ever stayed--clean, well kept, large property with views that are unmatched. Linda is a delightful host--welcomed us with yummy pumpkin bread! The pool is so refreshing and well maintained--a private resort oasis. My grandkids had fun fishing-even caught a barracuda from the dock. Enjoyed walking out into the bay looking for shells and aquatic wildlife (bring your water shoes). Everyone enjoyed the kayaks. Sitting under the Palapa for morning coffee or afternoon drinks with the trade winds was so relaxing. The kitchen was spacious and well-equipped for cooking meals--everything you need is right there! And the most amazing views from all the windows in the house.! Sunsets were spectacular! Thank you Linda for sharing your family home. Hope to see you again.
