The Details

A Bit More About This Property

A new, private community of 8 upscale homes called Coral Cove is located equidistant between Lorelei's and Chef Michael for easy walking to everything in downtown Islamorada, hence the name.....Heart of Morada! The reviews speak for themselves.

 

Enjoy your private dunk pool or sit around it having drinks and snacks while listening to soft music with our outdoor speakers. Fire up our grill for dinner at home. The seating on the 2nd-floor balcony over the bayside provides for an excellent sunset!

 

Each bedroom has its own, private full bathroom along with a king bed (2 of the 3 feature Tempurpedic Adjustable beds!) and Smart TV with exceptional privacy and plenty of closet space. The Bosch stainless steel kitchen is fully stocked including all your stemware and plasticware for the pool area.

 

The community pool is larger and rarely used, with amazing views! You have a dedicated private dock that is 11' wide, easily supporting a 32' vessel. The dock has water and electric hookup along with a fish cleaning station. We've even added a bait freezer for the anglers!

 

We provide 2 dual-person kayaks, a single-person kayak, and a paddleboard exclusive for our guest's use. If you brought your EV we have a generic 220v plug and a Tesla charger free of charge! A full-size washer/dryer and a large utility sink help keep things tidy. Parking for 2 cars only. High-speed internet, basic cable, and the ability to sign in to your apps on all 4 Smart TVs.

A printer/scanner/copier is there for any work you need to do and is stocked with everything you need for the EXCEPTIONAL vacation.

Beach towels and high-end linens are provided for your comfort by our top-notch cleaning staff. The home and property are non-smoking. There is no fence around the pool so it is not friendly for children.

3 cameras outside the property protect the driveway/rear gate where amenities are provided, top floor out to the street, and for the front door. The footage is only reviewed if there is any issue reported.

 

Why our guests

LOVE STAYING HERE

My family (3 adult couples) stayed her and it was great! each couple had a great room with their own full bath and lots of space. The small pool in our unit was great to hang around after a full day of activities, which are close by. The boat dock is also terrific. You can bring your own boat or rent one easily nearby and there was no extra fee for the slip like other resorts. We met nice people there too. We all used the free bikes, kayaks and paddles board also. we plan on returning to this gem of a place.

We had a wonderful two-week stay at this rental! The owners truly go above and beyond to make sure guests have everything they need. Having access to kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, bikes, and a boat dock made our trip so convenient and fun. The location is fantastic, with plenty of places within walking distance. Plus, it’s dog-friendly, which was a huge bonus for us! The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped—we couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend and would love to stay again! Thanks Mark and Doli!!

We had a great stay at this property - communication with the property owner was great and they were extremely responsive. The house is beautiful and was spotless. The community pool and dock area are gorgeous and the plunge pool was perfect for cooling off. We particularly loved being able to walk out to dinner.

We absolutely loved staying at Heart of Morada. It was perfect for our family of six - great location, wonderful accommodations. We thoroughly enjoyed the water toys - paddle board and kayaks....even paddled to LoriLeis one night. We will definitely be coming back and would recommend HoM to our friends!

Our family stayed in Heart of Morada for Spring Break, April 2023. The home is in the perfect location, close to everything in Islamorada. Our 3 children loved having access to the kayaks, SUP's, plunge pool as well as the community pool. The dedicated boat slip was so nice to have as we went boating almost every day during our stay. The state-of-the-art kitchen had everything you could ever need, even the laundry room made doing laundry enjoyable! The home was spotless with beautiful artwork and comfortable beds. Coral Cove is a very quaint community with brick paved road and gated entrance. Mark and Doli were wonderful hosts who responded quickly with any questions that came up. Our family can't wait to come back!

Truly in the heart of Islamorada, this beautiful home with modern furnishings and amenities is within a stone’s throw from the water and within a short walk or bike ride from the best restaurants and shops. Mark was a very accommodating and helpful host. We really appreciated that they welcomed our furry family members, even providing dog bowls! You can tell that Mark and his wife thought of every detail with this home to make it feel welcoming, peaceful, spotlessly clean, and all around beautiful. We rented a boat and were able to leave it at the dock at the property, which made boating/fishing/diving all week so easy and fun. Fishing off the dock at sunset while listening to music from Lorelei drift over the water was relaxing every night. Paddle-boarding alongside a family of manatees right off the dock in the mornings was spectacular. I highly recommend this home and look forward to staying here again on our next trip down!

The house was amazing and had all of the amenities needed on a vacation. Beds were extremely comfortable, and it was a plus that each bedroom had its own bathroom. We loved the plunge pool, as well as the community pool a few steps away. Shops and a few local restaurants were within walking distance. We would definitely return for a future visit.

Heart of Morada is in a perfect location, easily can walk to many local restaurants. House was very well appointed and the owners were very easy to work with. Enjoyed the pool area and fire pit on the dock, with easy access to our boat while staying. Great home and location.

I spent a week here with family. The house is beautiful and has lots of room. There are only a few units in this gated community and the pools are cool! Great to have your own boat slip too!

This place is perfect if you are an angler with a boat. The docks are in an area protected from rough weather with water and power. The house is great with a bathroom for each bedroom, comfortable beds and furniture. Everything looks brand new and is well maintained. The bait freezer outside was a huge plus and kept our wives happy!! You cant find a better location. Mark the host was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. We will definitely be back.

We had our original arrangements for staying cancel unexpectedly. Marc and Doli's home was available and saved our family vacation. The home was clean, very well appointed and really, really comfortable after a long day of fishing and snorkeling. The pool is temperature controlled so even though it is a plunge pool, it is very refreshing at the end of the day. We rented a 25' boat and had no problem with dockage. The only suggestions I would have, which are strictly from a fisherman's point of view, the the cleaning table needs a roof and need to be larger, and a bait freezer would have been helpful.

This is a beautiful, clean, nicely furnished property. Location is perfect - close to all the restaurants we love. Complete with dockage for our rental boat, we enjoyed fishing, snorkeling, and sunset cruises. Property owner was very cordial and responsive. We used our private pool and the community pool as well. Our 17 yr old daughter loved this place too. Highly recommend this property. Thank you Heart of Morada!

As promised, this home lived up to the hype. We walked to a few of our meals and made use of the kayaks and paddleboard which were provided. The home has top of the line everything and while there were 1 or 2 hiccups, the owner resolved them quickly. We've stayed at a few other similar homes in nearby subdivisions but none as nice as this!

Don’t hesitate and book it! The house is large, spacious and spotless! The little community of 8 houses was just lovely. All the privacy you want yet also other wonderful vacationers to meet if you are feeling social. Our family of 4 + dog couldn’t have been more comfortable. The kitchen and bathrooms were just fabulous. We have vacation in the Florida Keys for many years as a family. This was the first time, though we did a full week rental at a house with a dock. We are completely spoiled now and will never vacation in the keys another way and this is our house to go to. if you are considering this property, you absolutely must rent a boat for the week if you don’t have your own. Our family still cannot stop talking about how amazing our mornings and evenings were leaving and coming back to this beautiful property on a boat. Also take advantage of paddle board and kayaks!! Sweet family of manatees living by and would see them everyday.

Great house! 3 65+ couples that still have fun, loved the location, restaurants and pub recommendations by Mark and Doli were all great, add the "Square Grouper" to the list. Rooms and bathrooms Clean! Ladies loved the laundry room. Used the pool and fire pit at the common area several times, neat and clean!! Grill and kitchen ready to go and were used daily. Lorilei's next door was a "go to" several times, breakfast and dinner, also for the guys to go have beers! Captain Steve for a day on the water was great! (at dock next to Lorilei's). Easy in and out with your vehicle and safe with gated access. Definitely would recommend to friends and family!

It’s everything the listing says. Had a really great time. The property is brand new and very high quality. The dedicated slip for the boat was a great benefit. The owners were very responsive but honestly didn’t need to contact them for anything. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic place to stay in a great location. We've usually stayed at Chica Lodge but this was probably better for a family of 6 adults.....loved it. Beautiful inside and out, great small pool, clean, very comfy beds, large bathrooms...just top notch. We will definitely be back for another stay.

We enjoyed grilling and walking down for the sunsets late evening. We even walked to dinner and shops so conveniently located. The host were awesome very responsive. Their home was pet friendly and we appreciate you approving Tux. Looking forward to returning in the future:)

Myself, my wife, and 3 teenagers stayed at this magnificent home that should be highlighted in a magazine. It has 3 spacious bedrooms all with ensuites. 2 of the bedrooms have adjustable beds and all the mattresses are high-end and comfortable. There is also a half bath off the open and airy first floor that has a giant island in the kitchen and large living room. The house is big, and clean, with top of the line appliances and modern luxury furniture. The décor is elegant with beautiful artwork hung throughout. An added bonus is the private plunging pool in the front. The house is one of 7 or 8 other homes in a gated development. The development is extremely safe, and once inside the development, there is a community pool and a dock with access to kayaks and paddle boards. This vacation house was everything that we needed. The owners were very pleasant and always accessible if needed. If I could give a 10 star review, I would. We will be back...

Property was exactly as described with large rooms and brand new appliances throughout. Owners are super responsive. The kayaks are high quality and such a nice bonus to have. We used them every morning and evening. Family of manatees right by that we would see frequently at the dock. They love it when you run the hose water for them :). The boat slip was wonderful to have. Highly recommend you rent a boat for the week (if you don’t already have your own). This was first time we did boat rental for several days down there and just can’t imagine not having a boat down in the keys. The way we vacation there is forever changed. Waking up from the beautiful property and hoping on the boat is amazing. Same on the evening returns. So many restaurants in walking distance as well. Make sure you check out Bad Boy Burrito for lunch and the cute coffe shops Cafe Moka. Gorgeous botanical gardens surround both and just 2 blocks from the house.
