Seaside Escape! Boater’s Paradise!
In the heart of the Florida Keys, "La Casita" is on MM 52.
"La Casita" is a quaint 1/2 duplex canal home with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom that can comfortably accommodate 4-6 guests.
This lovely home sits on the Atlantic Ocean side, just 2 houses from the ocean.
"La Casita" is really centrally located to a number of activities & easy access to different attractions, but you still will feel like you are "away from it all".
Located just 1 hour from Key West and 2 hours from Miami, our vacation home is a nice road trip destination. The Florida Keys Marathon Airport is a very easy commmute and the Key West International Airport is just 1 hour away.
A shaded deck area by the canal lends itself to a relaxing time; perfect for barbecuing, fishing from the canal, or just enjoying the cool breeze coming from the ocean.
With 35 feet of dock space at the beginning of the canal, it can accommodate a wide variety of boats.
Ideal for a couples’ getaway or a family trip!
We speak English & Spanish.
