Perfect location in the keys! We absolutely enjoyed every minute at Leatherback Cottage, it was exactly as pictured and couldn’t have been a more beautiful location! The pool was relaxing, my boys fished off of the dock, and close to the store and restaurants. Sue was attentive and fantastic to work with, couldn’t have asked for anything else! Highly recommend this property!

Beautiful Property
This was our second time staying here and it was just as great as the first time. Plenty of room for the boat. Clean pool and beautifully landscaped property. Comfortable beds and everything you could need in the kitchen. We can't wait to come back.

Perfect Stay
Staying at the Leather Back cottage was amazing. The house was very comfortable with many amenities. The incredible view offers peace and tranquility! The pool provided a refreshing dip late in the afternoon. The tropical grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Centrally located to restaurants, shops and nightlife!

Islamorada Vacation House
This property is perfect for a couple or small family, the house is nicely remodeled and furnished comfortably. There is a well stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes, glasses and cookware. Nice newer appliances and a separate drink fridge. The gated complex has lots of plants and trees and provides a private and tropical vacation. I wish I could stay forever.

Family stayed at this exceptional property for 9 days. Rented both upper and lower levels. Clean and very well provisioned both with household items and water toys (4 kayaks, 2 paddle boards, lots of life vests, pool toys, etc). Sue was attentive, helpful, friendly. The quay and cabana offer unrestricted water and sky views, fantastic on moonlit nights. Elegant landscaping and clean pool (shared with folks from other rental homes on the property). Marine life passing by included turtles, snook, tarpon, barracuda and nurse sharks. Importantly renters have free access to nearby Founders Park, which has a well-staffed 50 meter pool, open playing fields and a pleasant little beach with shallow depths appropriate for families with small children. Snorkel beyond the beach at Founders and you're living the full Jacques Cousteau experience, dozens of fish species in shallow water. Plenty of nearby fishing/scuba/snorkel operators, with submerged remains of Spanish galleons from the 1733 plate fleet near shore. Plenty of decent restaurants and boutique shops within a short drive. With its own little port (good channel + day markers + mean tide depths to hold boats I would guess to 26 feet though perhaps more), this is an excellent base for fishers and divers. Intend to return.

The pictures simply don't do this place justice. It's absolutely beautiful! Clean, comfortable beds and couches, everything you could need in the kitchen, and everything is updated. The pool is clean and warm with plenty of lounge chairs. There are so many toys for the property to share like fishing poles, kayaks and noodles. The downstairs has bunk beds and so much space to hang out. Perfect for the kids. Plenty of room to park the boat and trailer. I had a few questions for Sue and my calls were returned within minutes. I wish we could have stayed longer but we will definitely come back.

Leatherback spring break 2021
We had the best stay at the Leatherback home on Islamorada. The home is so lovely and well appointed. The views were so beautiful and the location is convenient to many of the marinas if you are like us and didn’t have a boat to dock. But if you have a boat, this is the place for you! The saltwater pool is great! It is shared between the 4 houses in this gated group which I don’t think was disclosed on the listing but it was of course fun to talk to others who were also visiting. This property would be great to book for a group of friends or family who want to be together but maybe not every second. The four adorable houses would be perfect for that. This home has everything you need for water sports as well, kayaks and lots SUPs, life jackets and even some fishing poles! Sue, the property manager, is quick to respond and was so friendly. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to return again.

Property location was a slice of paradise. Home was well furnished and had everything. Video game did not work, which is why I marked down the accuracy of the online representations. However, property had kayaks, paddle boards, and other amenities not advertised. Overall excellent. We will be back.
