Enjoy the Florida Keys lifestyle in the landscaped back yard, play a game of corn hole or jump on the beach cruisers for a short bike ride to Robbie's famous marina to feed the giant tarpon, water sport rentals, and enjoy drinks, food, and shopping.

Beautiful home, plenty of amenities to enjoy and a wonderful street to stay on. Very safe we really enjoyed our time.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved our time at Bungalow Blue. The property was perfect for our anniversary getaway. The bungalow was well appointed and beautifully decorated. We encourage the use of the amenities available. We rode bikes, night swims in the pool and the boat ramp access. The neighbors are wonderful and we made some friends along the way. Lots of local food and shopping options close by.

Exceeded our expectations! The property was perfect for our relaxing vacation and the hosts, Joe & Yasmin, provided everything you could have imagined needing during our stay. They checked in frequently and were very responsive. We enjoyed the community's pool and made good use of the bicycles to tour the area each morning.

This was our first time to the keys and we had a great time . On Friday when we arrived we went to Robbie’s and had lunch and fed the tarpon . Saturday on the recommendation from the owner we went to Sombrero beach in Marathon where we did some snorkeling and saw lots of fish . Sat night we went out to Lorelis and heard a great classic rock band . Sun we drove to key west and walked around town all day and took in the sights . Great weekend vacation !! Oh the beds are super comfortable !!

The house was perfect for our small family. It was clean, modern and completely stocked with all of the necessities (and more!). The location was great as well, just a short drive to all the restaurants, activities, and sites of Islamorada and an easy day trip to Key West. The pool was also perfect for our kids and we spent a lot of time just lounging in the pool area. A great place to stay!

Just as pictured & described! My husband, 4-year old & I loved our weeklong vacation! Yasmin and Joe were so thoughtful, helpful and communicative, from the Valentine flowers and sweets to their suggestions throughout the trip. By far the best bungalow on the street w/ flexible parking, a private back and side yard & the gorgeous pool just steps away.
The bungalow was cutely decorated w/ an abundance of supplies & modern amenities. It was fun to ride the two provided bikes around the neighborhood - everyone we passed was very friendly. We rented a toddler bike from Backcountry Cowboy for the week, as well. For a couple of meals, we grilled steak and shrimp outside - delightful! Be sure to keep an eye out for a bright green iguana - so neat. Also up the road, a larger brown iguana that sits on a stump by the water everyday. :) Each morning we enjoyed breakfast and coffee on the adorable porch. Dinner out at restaurants was one of my favorite things to do! Food was wonderful everywhere! The pool temp is amazing and it's nice and clean. Also, they do a great job with spraying, unless it was the time of year, because ZERO bugs bothered us outside! Yay! Only negative---we had to leave and fly home to Ohio. :(
Thank you so much for a lovely stay!
