The Islands of Islamorada

The place

At the beachfront in Islamorada: 22 four-bedroom oceanfront villas and 8 one-bedroom suites, all gleaming white walls and breezy modern furnishings. The villas run to 3,100 square feet — full kitchen, laundry room, private balconies. Room to spread out and stay a while.

Two outdoor pools with sun decks and hot tubs. Pickleball courts, a fitness center, a kids' playground, watersports equipment when the water calls. No proper restaurant on the property — in-house chefs can prepare breakfast and lunch, you can cook in your villa, or head out to local spots like Chef Michael's.
