Our house is one of the most highly sought-after vacation homes in Islamorada that regularly books years in advance. The Last Resort is a firm favorite of multi-generational families and friends looking to create memorable moments that last a lifetime in a lush, private, and tropical setting.

As owners, we have spent 24+ years providing the best possible Keys experience for guests. Michele handles the day-to-day operations of the property and ensures guests have everything they need for a stress-free vacation. We believe that guests should not have to worry about 'extra or hidden' charges, so our rates INCLUDE many of the things other vacation rentals charge for, such as pool heat, BBQ gas, kayaks, and baby equipment. Though the property is self-catering, we supply many household items so you don't have to worry about purchasing them, such as laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, garbage bags, kitchen paper, cleaning fluids, etc.

We also don't charge a security deposit or pet fee. We operate on an honor & integrity system, giving our guests an authentic Keys experience that keeps them returning year after year as repeat guests.

From years of international travel with our kids, one of my pet peeves was the amount of equipment that I had to pack just to go on vacation. Another was arriving at houses that were sparsely stocked or having to rent additional equipment. Greg and I made the commitment to provide as many supplies and equipment for our guests, from all kitchen equipment to baby equipment, from hairdryers & straighteners to lifejackets and water shoes, all to alleviate the need for guests to stuff their suitcases and truly make it a 'pack your shorts, flip-flops & toothbrush' kind of house.

The Last Resort is truly in a beautiful setting, and we look forward to the opportunity to host you, your family, and your friends someday.

It had everything we needed for a memorable beach vacation. The owner was friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with. We hope to return! back!ThownerfrieThowwith.

FABULOUS ACCOMODATIONS!

Our family of eleven vacationed together to help celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. The house was very well equipped with all of our needs.The upstairs toilets both had some issues with running until we jiggled the handles. Also the hand towel holder needs to be repaired, as it was broken upon arrival. Also a rocking chair on the back porch broke while my husband was sitting in it, but he fixed it with some tools he found in the closet. The kitchen, living room seating, and all bedrooms were PERFECT! Everyone enjoyed the pool, ocean, kayaks, pool toys, area restaurants, etc. Everything was absolutely excellent!!!Thank you VERY MUCH!!!

Our family of seven absolutely loved our stay at The Last Resort in Islamorada. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed. Each bedroom was spotless and felt like a high-end hotel, with towels and toiletries thoughtfully laid out on every bed. We’ve stayed in many VRBO homes, but none have ever been this well appointed for a full weeklong vacation.The bathrooms were fully stocked with plenty of towels, makeup towels, hair dryers, straighteners, curling irons, and spa-like shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Everything felt upscale, intentional, and impeccably clean.The kitchen was better stocked than our own home—tons of pots, pans, utensils, quality knives, glasses, a coffee maker, and an espresso machine. With seven of us, the two washers and dryers were a huge bonus. There was also a utility room stocked with extra towels, lightbulbs, batteries, and supplies. I’ve never seen a rental so thoughtfully prepared.The location is unbeatable. The home sits about 30 feet from the ocean, and you step directly from the back deck onto the sand. Sandy beaches are rare in the Keys, and this felt like our own private beach. We relaxed in hammocks, played cornhole and spikeball, and enjoyed true family time. The heated pool was fantastic, and when we had a small issue, the owner resolved it within an hour.The owner also provided a detailed PDF guide that made the stay seamless. The oceanfront porch with rocking chairs was amazing. We will be back for sure.

Beautiful historic feel, well appointed

A beautiful house and really well appointed. It is rare that you rent a property with the level of dishware, silverware and kitchen tools that this place has. Also, the decoration made you feel at home, not like you were inside a rental. The porch is great for sitting and the view was wonderful. We did have strong winds that pushed alot of sargassum on the beach the first day. It was not cleared until our final day. That would be the only challenge that we experienced.

Perfect Family Vacation!

Our family has stayed at many different VRBO properties, some even in Islamorada, and this is by far the best experience we ever had! The home had everything our family, including our two year old granddaughter, could need. Michele & Greg have thought of every detail, large & small, to make guests feel at home & to make their vacation easy & relaxing. The home is beautiful & the location is outstanding. We had big plans to venture around & do different activities, but other than some dinners out we just found ourselves never wanting to leave the house, pool & awesome beach. Having coffee on the fantastic back porch in your rocker while your granddaughter plays in the sand in her pajamas can’t be topped! We hope to return & bring even more family!

If you are lucky enough to find an opening for this house, just book it.The house and property are truly exceptional. Everything is thoughtfully labeled in the house, which is really handy when you just want to know what light switch turns on which light! The kitchen and bathrooms are VERY well stocked.The canal out back is very nice and my kids actually caught some cool fish out there. Manatees came to visit there are well. We loved the kayaks and paddle boards. The home is over 100 years old but beautifully updated. The views will take your breath away.Perhaps the best part is Michele. She is amazing—the most responsive and caring owner/manager we have ever dealt with. We were sad to leave and beyond grateful for the priceless family memories.
