Sunset Serenade

A Private Island Escape Just Off Key West

Where Key West Ends and Island Life Begins

The first time you arrive in Key West, it already feels like the edge of the map. The streets narrow, the pace softens, and the water seems to surround everything. But standing at Mallory Square during sunset, looking just beyond the harbor, you notice something more. A small tropical island rests quietly offshore, lined with swaying palms and elegant island homes. That is Sunset Key.

A short ferry ride across the harbor brings you to a completely different rhythm of life. Reserved exclusively for guests and residents, the five-minute boat ride feels less like transportation and more like a transition into another world.

Nestled within this private island community, Sunset Serenade offers a relaxed Caribbean-style retreat designed for slower mornings, warm ocean breezes, and evenings spent beneath changing tropical skies.

A Tropical Retreat on Exclusive Sunset Key

Private Island Living with Resort-Style Amenities

Surrounded by lush tropical landscaping and centered around the shared oasis-style pool at The Overlook, Sunset Serenade is one of only a small collection of private island residences tucked within this peaceful enclave.

While the home itself offers privacy and comfort, the island experience extends far beyond your front door. Guests enjoy access to Sunset Key’s beautifully maintained grounds, tennis courts, concierge services, security, and the award-winning waterfront restaurant, Latitudes.

The island’s quiet pathways, white sand shoreline, and tropical gardens create an atmosphere that feels worlds away from downtown Key West, despite being only minutes from it.

Designed for Relaxed Island Living

Bright Interiors with a Cheerful Caribbean Style

Inside, the home reflects the playful elegance of classic island living. French doors, hardwood flooring, coastal furnishings, and tropical fabrics create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the residence.

The open-concept living area is designed for gathering and easy indoor-outdoor living. Multiple sets of sliding glass doors connect the great room to the first-floor porch, allowing sunlight and tropical breezes to move naturally through the home.

The living room offers comfortable seating, including a sleeper sofa for additional guests, while the nearby dining area and breakfast bar create an easy flow between cooking, dining, and entertaining.

A Kitchen Designed for Extended Stays

Comfortable, Functional, and Full of Island Character

The custom kitchen combines cottage-style charm with thoughtful functionality. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry provide everything needed for preparing meals at home, whether you’re enjoying a quiet breakfast before the beach or cocktails before sunset.

A walk-in pantry and in-home washer and dryer make longer stays especially convenient, while the open layout keeps everyone connected throughout the space.

Tucked beside the main living area, an additional office workspace offers a practical setup for guests working remotely during their stay on Sunset Key.

Two Private Suites Upstairs

Comfortable Bedrooms with En-Suite Bathrooms

Upstairs, both bedrooms are positioned on opposite sides of the hallway, creating privacy and separation for couples, families, or friends traveling together.

The guest suite features bright cottage-style furnishings, hardwood flooring, and direct access to the covered second-floor porch overlooking the tropical grounds and pool area below.

On the opposite side of the home, the spacious primary suite offers a king bed, tranquil garden-inspired décor, and sliding glass doors that open to a private covered balcony. It’s the kind of space that naturally invites slow mornings with coffee and quiet evenings with a glass of wine beneath the palms.

Both bedrooms include en-suite bathrooms and abundant natural light throughout the day.

The Accommodations

Comfortable Accommodations for Up to Six Guests

Sunset Serenade comfortably accommodates up to six guests across two private bedroom suites and an additional sleeper sofa in the main living area.

Bedroom Layout:

– Primary Bedroom: 1 King Bed
– Guest Bedroom: 2 Twin Beds (convertible to a King upon request)
– Living Room: 1 Queen Sleeper Sofa

The layout works especially well for couples, small families, or friends traveling together, offering both privacy upstairs and flexible shared living spaces downstairs.

The Rooftop Deck

Front-Row Seats to the Sunset

Above the home, a spiral staircase leads to Sunset Serenade’s signature feature: the private covered rooftop deck.

From this elevated perch, the island seems to slow even further. Palm trees sway below, warm ocean air moves through the space, and the colors of the sky gradually shift from gold to coral to deep twilight blue.

Furnished for lingering comfortably into the evening, the rooftop deck becomes the natural gathering place at sunset, whether you’re sharing drinks with friends, listening to the surrounding sea, or simply watching the last light disappear beyond the horizon.

It’s here that the home fully earns its name.

The Sunset Key Experience

Quiet Island Privacy Just Minutes from Old Town

One of the most unique parts of staying on Sunset Key is the balance it offers. You remain only a short ferry ride from the energy, restaurants, galleries, and nightlife of Key West, while returning each evening to a private island atmosphere that feels calm, secluded, and entirely separate from downtown.

For guests seeking a more elevated and peaceful Key West experience, Sunset Serenade offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both.
