Why we wish you were here
Because you’re looking for an elegant, quiet place on the sunrise side of the Keys, without the drive on to the middle or lower end of the island chain – or all the way to Key West.
Mark Gauert Ocean House reception and concierge at the Islands of Islamorada.
The Islands of Islamorada has the views, the amenities and the vibe of a five-star resort – without much of the five-star expense – about an hour and a half from Miami. There are drawbacks – most notably, you have to go off property for a sit-down restaurant.
But all of Islamorada is just outside the gate here, with fine restaurants and beer gardens an easy drive or bike ride away on U.S. 1.
What’s cooking
There’s no restaurant on property, but you can get breakfast and lunch items from a menu prepar
