Oceanfront Property in Kawama Tower with Elevator, Lagoon and 2 Heated Pools

“NO WORRIES” VACATION AT OUR BEAUTIFUL ISLAND HOME!

As one of our guests commented in a Sep 2023 review, our home is "the best value for the money at Kawama." Our condo is located in Kawama Tower, part of Kawama Yacht Club, a secure, gated community with 24-hour access. Kawama Yacht Club boasts a large saltwater lagoon, which is great for swimming, strolls, or snorkeling. We have access to two heated pools. Two elevators serve the Tower and the property also has tennis and pickle ball courts. Guests may be able to rent boat slips at the on-site marina, if available (contact Domenic at rsmgt@gmail.com or (786) 803-4423), but, regrettably, all of the boat trailer spaces on Kawama are full, so boats and trailers that are launched at the marina would have to be kept off-site. For those without a boat, fishing (with a FL license) is possible from the jetty-- and fun, especially for youngsters. A favorite pastime at Kawama is gathering at the jetty each evening with drinks and watching the sun go down—what better way is there to relax?

We are able to rent on a “vacation basis”, meaning that there is no chance that your reservation could be canceled at the last minute, in the event that the Monroe County Code Enforcement office discovers that the owner from whom you have rented your unit does not hold either a special vacation permit, or an exemption, to rent for less than 28 days. We also have a hurricane policy that gives you a full refund of days missed, in the event of an evacuation. So in other words, RELAX, you’re on vacation now! As a result of the Covid pandemic crisis, our unit receives additional cleaning, as specified by Monroe County, FL, the CDC, and the American Hotel Association.

Our condo has 2 bedrooms (one king, and one queen + sofa bed) and two 2 full bathrooms, one of which is handicapped accessible. We also have a new (2023) IKEA double sleeper sofa in the living room and new (2025) single one in the guest bedroom. A high chair and a travel crib/playpen are available, upon prior request. We have a small private balcony that is great for reading or enjoying your morning coffee. Our kitchen is fully equipped with everything from blenders to popcorn makers, as well as a variety of spices that you are free to use during your stay. We also have a George Foreman electric grill for grilling your fresh-caught, or bought, fish. We have a washing machine and dryer as well as 2 flat screen TVs, cable, and wi-fi. There are plenty of towels and linens, as well as books, DVDs, and games for you to use during your stay. The decor reflects our own style of eclectic antiques, blended with Keys-themed original art.

One of the many reasons why we love Key Largo is that while it’s easy to spend the day lounging by the pool or lagoon, there are plenty of more adventurous options as well. There are several chartered fishing boat options available within walking distance of Kawama. Pennekamp Coral Reef Park is only a five-minute drive away, and we love to kayak through the mangrove trails or snorkel off the beach there. There are a number of tour boats and rental outlets operating near Kawama, including diving and snorkeling tours, as well as the famed ‘African Queen.’ In terms of wildlife adventures, we are within walking distance of Dolphins Plus, one of several nearby 'swim-with-the- dolphins' centers, only a ten-minute drive from the Florida Keys Wild Bird Center, a half-hour from "Theater of the Sea", and less than an hour's drive from both the Everglades and the Monkey Jungle. There are also museums and historic sites in the area.

We are also spoiled when it comes to places to eat and drink. Within walking distance are the Pilot House Restaurant and the Key Largo Fisheries, both of which serve good food and drink. The Fisheries also sells a variety of fresh seafood to cook at home. We also particularly enjoy Sharkey’s and Skippers' (three-minute drive), the Conch House, and the Fish House (both a five-minute drive). Mrs. Mac's is a must! For your everyday needs, Walgreens, CVS, and a Dollar Store are all within walking distance.

We hope you come to love Key Largo as much as we do!

**Worry-free hurricane season policy: In the case of a mandatory hurricane evacuation, you will be refunded for the amount of vacation time missed due to the evacuation.
