But in this pretty vacation rental condominium, By The Beautiful Sea, you can instantly gratify this need for sensational vistas from your own vacation rental terrace right across the street from the beach. Make your first order of the day to breathe in the fresh ocean breezes with a walk along the beach and fulfill the desire to dig those toes into warm white sand . . . for after all your front yard is Key West by the sea on the the Atlantic Ocean side of the island. Your ‘back yard’ view is not bad either. The entrance for this property connects with a second level walkway of the building, and offers views of beautiful tropical park-like landscaping. A short stroll from the condominium through the landscaped setting, leads to the large free form swimming pool and Jacuzzi. A major decision each day could be whether to enjoy the sun at the beach or pool side. And when it's time to go dining, shopping, or enjoying the nightlife, Old Town is close by and an easy bike ride away. Ahhhh . . . life in paradise is good.
The interior layout of this property was designed to maximize the opportunity to take in the ocean view from the living room and dining area, as well as the master bedroom. Sliding glass doors off the living room, lead to a private ocean view terrace. The kitchen adjoins the dining room through a pass through door, creating a floor plan that makes it easy for entertaining the family or a group of friends.
The layout of the bedrooms is ideal for a family or three couples. You’ll need to flip a coin for the enviable master suite that has the ocean view, plus a door that leads directly to the sea-side balcony. Furnishings are tropical elegant with a honey-colored wood-and-wicker king size bed and romantic free-standing grandfather clock to remind you that it’s 5 o’clock somewhere. Another nice feature of the master bedroom is a walk-in closet. Next to this closet, the master bath provides a long vanity with two sinks, tiled floor, and bath-tub with in-tub shower.
The other two bedrooms and second bathroom, are on the opposite side of the condominium, down a short hallway, just off the great-room. Immediately off the hall to the right is a bedroom with two twin beds, which can be made up as a king size bed upon request. Nicely decorated with white cottage furnishings, there is also plenty of daylight that streams in through a nice size window. Directly at the end of the hallway is the third bedroom with king size bed. Handsome honey-colored wooden furnishings fill the room in nice contrast with the coral colored walls. A window on one wall invites in the natural light.
The second full bathroom, with standing shower and glass door, is situated off the hallway, easily accessed by both the second and third bedrooms. This bathroom also conveniently houses the washer/dryer, a welcome feature for a beach house, where you can come in and drop your towels and wet bathing suits.
A notable layout feature of this property is that it's an end unit in the condominium building, making it one of the more desirable locations in the complex as you only have neighbors on one side. It is located on the first floor, but elevated second level, since the covered parking is directly below. This design provides a wonderful view of the ocean, the perfect Key West by the sea experience. The entrance to the unit can be reached by stairs or elevator. There is designated covered parking, and the condominium complex is gated and secured with an electronic key entrance.

“Great location and the staff were very helpful. Appreciated all the extras like beach towels and bucket and spade. Very clean and definitely up to standards.
“Great location and amenities. We loved being away from Duvall so we could go eat and visit but return to the quiet and the beach. The directions for keys and check in and checkout were clear and easy to follow. We will definitely consider coming back.
“We visited in the middle of July of 2021. Condo was immaculate. Great water pressure. Very well stocked. Easy to receive and return keys. Wish we had more keys to get in and out if the gate since we had several people going different places at the same time. Would definitely return.
“Very nice condo. Had issues with keys but got that resolved. Need to set up different system for keys. Main office is far & transportation is not good in Key West. We loved pool at condo.
“Absolutely wonderful! House was immaculate
“Great place. The beach was right across the street and the view from our balcony was beautiful.
“Everything was as expected and exceeded our expectations! Everyone in our group appreciated how clean the unit was when we arrived. The kitchen was great to use and had all the essentials we needed! The unit fit three adult couples without any issue. The only negative was we struggled with using the TVs the one in the room with the double beds I was told didn’t work well. Will keep you in mind for future trips!
“Very comfortable and beautiful place! Definitely would return and stay there! It’s only about a 5 minute drive to the popular part of town and parking was very accessible. They were very accommodating and the condo was amazing!
“Well run organization.
