The Details

A Bit More About This Property

Welcome to The Oasis! This majestic property is over 2.75 acres of landscaped beauty with the only private pool built on the Atlantic Ocean. More white sand is on this private lot than in all the keys! There are over 100 palm trees, with about 70 lit up at night, some of the tallest around, including the largest enchilada tree in the Keys! Their graceful presence puts you in the Jimmy Buffett mode as the cooling Atlantic Ocean winds blow your hair and alleviate the warming sun.

Our pool is grandfathered in from 1962 and rests on the ocean, for the most spectacular views! When you relax in the pool, the view of Alligator Reef Light on the horizon and the boats going by provides a backdrop while sipping your margaritas. Never worry about a crowded beach or people kicking sand on you while you sun yourself. Swim in the crystal blue water or stay on top with our kayaks and paddleboards for exercise.

Consisting of 2 homes, the main is 1 bedroom and 1.5 baths while the other is 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, each with a fully stocked kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances and a living room with amazing ocean views. Amenities include your private heated (or cooled) salt-water pool, 4 kayaks, and 3 paddleboards. Pet friendly and in the HEART of Islamorada on Upper Matecumbe, less than a mile from Publix. And, of course, a 100% smoke-free home.

Since there are some great restaurants and bars very close, you can bike to them if you don't want to drive and worry about parking. Proximity is key as you are in the heart of Islamorada and very close to everything you need. We supply 8 high-end 5-speed beach bikes with large tires for handling patches of sand. Islamorada Brewery is .25 miles away, and Chef Michaels is less than a mile.

Brizo faucets adorn all of our sinks and handpainted custom art adorns the walls. There are 5 50" Smart TVs with 150 channels of programming in addition to Netflix and Prime apps. Ubiquiti Enterprise-grade wifi covers every inch of the property for flawless high-speed internet. Our professional mosquito control system has spray heads throughout the property and keeps mosquitos at bay as they spray throughout the day.

While drinking coffee in our outdoor living room, focus on the water, as there is a short window when dolphins feed on baitfish and come as close as 25' to our beach! This is the best way to start the day as you watch the sunrise. Enjoying a glass of wine out here at the end of the day brings you right back to where you started. Be sure to repeat it daily.

The rare, plush green grass is a pleasure to walk on to and from the pool....a rarity in the keys. Our gated entrance keeps your stay private and secure. Did you drive your Tesla here? GREAT! We have an onsite charger for you as well. Stay here and you will see why we boast the best views and stay around!

This rental used to be called H2O Villas years ago and had weddings almost weekly. Tarte Cosmetics bought it after that for their corporate headquarters and for photoshoots prior to our acquisition in June 2021. We intend to continue the wedding tradition in addition to a luxury beach rental for discerning people. Luxurious, majestic, and breathtaking are just some of the many adjectives used to describe the ambiance of this property.

We supply all linens including beach towels

6 high-end bikes for getting around Upper Mat

2 Paddleboards

2 single kayaks

2 dual person kayaks

Bocce Ball

Cornhole

Tesla EV charger

JBL portable speak for pool tunes

Fully stocked kitchen and all proper stemware for drinks

Tempurpedic Adjustable bed in the main house

Gated for privacy and security

There are no fences around the pool or ocean, so it is not advised for young children.

PLEASE NOTE: THERE IS AN EXTRA FEE FOR ALL WEDDINGS AND EVENTS. PLEASE INQUIRE. A 3,600 sq ft tiki provides an exceptional wedding cover that is lit up at night.

Islamorada license # VR-235

Note: Outdoor (only) security cameras are placed in the following locations: 2 Ring and 1 camera outside of front gate entrance, 2 at the garage facing south at driveway and east of garage, 1 at main house at kayaks, and 6 at guest house facing 1 at Tesla charger, 1 at pool, 1 at beach, 1 at the driveway, 1 at guesthouse door, and 1 toward main house stairs. All are to mitigate trespassers when the home is empty and for theft, they are not monitored.

 

Why our guests

LOVE STAYING HERE

The property and location are stellar- the views of the ocean, the private beach and pool- the photographs accurately capture the privacy and beauty of the property. The large home and smaller home are both well kept up - good beds, good showers. The few issues that needed maintenance along the way were promptly addressed by Mark who was very responsive. For checkin, I would have preferred all checkin information to be within the Airbnb app 24h prior to arrival and not sent to my personal email-- instructions for two different key codes didn't arrive in my personal email until after our arrival and made for a frustrating checkin process. Would definitely stay again.

On paper this property was an overdue family vacation. In reality, this went above and beyond our expectations! The property is gorgeous and has everything you could possibly need for the perfect getaway. It is an oasis with the convenience of a fantastic grocery store and wonderful restaurants. The owners were so accommodating and understanding during our planning phase. Definitely goes down as a trip of a lifetime!

Our family stayed at the Oasis for 2 weeks in July 2022. The property exceeded expectations. The pool was our favorite single amenity, however the beach, kayaks, palm trees and rocking chairs were all heavily utilized. The location is near perfect. Everything was working a short walk or drive. Finally, Mark was very responsive and ensured that our vacation was seamless. I highly recommend this property!

Staying at Marks was fantastic and easy beach living. He is right by a lot of shopping (Saturday farmers market) and great restaurants at the Market Commons. It was super easy to come and go and Mark is super willing to help with anything to make sure we were comfortable and we really appreciated that!

Start with the PROS- the palm trees are amazing. The pool is nice. CONS- Cheap EVERYTHING... Bedding, Pots and pans, dishes (dirty forks), towels. This is a super small place for a lot of money. There is no room to cook or prepare meals. The furniture in the living room is very uncomfortable to sit on , not practical at all. The listing states that it is the ONLY home with ACTUAL beach....there is not a usable beach here by any means. I would also like to mention that my reservation that had been booked for months was cancelled on me 10 days prior to arrival , then in order for me to rebook(which I panicked to do asap since I had my captain bringing my boat and boat space paid for amongst other things that were also paid for in advance), I was only given a option of $200 more a night which was never refunded. The owner said it was a accident that he canceled on me but I am sure he was hoping I would not notice the upcharge. The owner also came on the property 3 different occasions all while we were gone . There is cameras all over the property so they knew when we would leave and ask "is it ok if we stop by and grab this or that". Weird experience all around and as a short term rental owner for 10 years I know what is to be expected. Lastly Make sure you bring, TP, paper towels, trash bags. dish soap and everything else you will need. For $1400 a night I would expect this to be there but it was not.

Excellent experience! When we had any questions Mark replied immediately. House was well stocked. Bikes, kayaks, pool - everything was provided. We will definitely be back again !!

February 2022
Amazing property with lots of room. The drive in from the gate is breathtaking and once you see the view of the Atlantic, you are mesmerized. The home on stilts has one bedroom and the bed is the most comfortable bed I've ever experienced. We enjoyed eating outside the sliding glass doors with the breeze and the ocean view and sitting at that same table in the morning with coffee watching the sunrise. The other home is ground level and has a lovely layout too; both have full kitchens. We enjoyed having the bikes to explore with and the kayaks and paddle-boards were great to have for the ocean too. We spent most of our time in the pool which is very nice and clean. The private beach is a coral beach with many interesting things to collect. There is a large grassy area for outside games too. This property would be perfect for a beach wedding with the palm trees framing the gorgeous water and really great for a family or friends retreat.

I want to share an experience at a venue. If you are like me, you see pictures online and think to yourself..:they had to photoshop these pictures, or the lightning was just perfect, or they used a ten thousand dollar camera…..because no way it looks like that. Well I want to say the pictures just do not do it justice. It is beautiful. Perfect for weddings and other private functions. So much parking. One of the largest tiki huts I have seen, private beach, pool, the homes (yes two) are perfect down to the smallest detail. I could go on and on. Wow simply amazing property

ABSOULTELY, HANDS DOWN, the most beautiful venue!!! We had so much fun (the parents!) and the guests loved it too! It was true Florida Keys! We had over 70 guests from all over the world, many of them had been to Miami before but never to Islamorada. The weather was perfect and the venue was comfortable and spread out and just truly magical! Thank you, Mark for your oversight and organization! We LOVED it all!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed Islamorada and Mark’s home. Everything was as promised and more - there were a lot of little details that really made things enjoyable. Everything felt new and the home was in great condition. The kids had a blast with the paddle boards, bikes, and kayaks, and the location of the home was central to everything we wanted to do. The seaweed happened to be bad this week (thanks to the storm that passed through), but we saw the team cleaning it up again for the next guests as we checked out, so I think we just had bad timing. Thanks Mark - we will definitely be back!

Our family needed an escape after a difficult year. This property was absolutely everything we needed to rest and recover. The owners spared no expense in making this property the “oasis” to which its name claims its name. Not that you would need to venture from the property as it “has it all”, but wow! the location of the property is central to restaurants, entertainment, and other destinations in the Keys. Look no further, whether you’re planning an event or bringing your family for two weeks!

This house could not have been more perfect! I have stayed in just about every area of Florida and this one is hard to beat. The pool was super clean and the kids had a blast playing games in the pool when we all needed a break from the salt water. The beach was so peaceful and all of the toys (paddle boards and snorkels) were well utilized. Wifi was fast and the location was right in the heart of the little town and there were endless restaurants to choose from. I cannot forget to mention the oasis hosts were super quick to respond to questions or any little things that came up. The home is made for dog lovers and our pup thought he was in heaven I am sure. I truly felt like we had our own little beach resort for a week. I can only imagine how beautiful a wedding would be at this home. They have really outdone themselves with this one.

We cannot say enough amazing things about this venue! From the property to the homes to the views to the service from Mark and Doli. We could not have asked for a more perfect day! Blows away any resort experience. Our guests are still talking about our wedding today. You will NOT be disappointed! I promise! We can’t wait to renew our vows there one day! :)

We can’t give enough stars to rate our experience with hosting our daughter’s wedding at The Oasis!! I wish we could give 500 stars!! From our initial communication for a tour until our check out everything was TOP NOTCH!! The property was beautiful, private, well appointed and nothing short of perfect! Mark’s recommendations for vendors were very helpful when planning from a distance! He made sure the beach was immaculate for the big day and took care of any needs we had all week! If you are thinking of having a wedding in Islamorada…The Oasis is the perfect canvas to design your dream wedding!!!

We booked this property for our wedding sight unseen and we could not have been happier! The photos do not even do it justice! The property is kept in pristine condition and the view will leave you speechless. We held our wedding ceremony with the ocean view in the background and hosted our reception under the cover of the large tiki hut that is gorgeous in person and even equipped with lighting inside. We stayed all week to celebrate with our family and friends, including our fur babies. We used the picture perfect pool every day we were there. The inside of the main and guest home were in perfect condition and very comfortable for us. And again, the views, wow! Mark and Doli helped us with vendors, moving furniture, and cleaning the beach on our wedding day so we didn’t have to worry about anything. They were very kind and responsive hosts. If you are considering this property- BOOK IT! You will not regret it.

This property was luxury and relaxation all in one! The name speaks for itself, it is truly and Oasis. This property offers two spacious houses, a pool overlooking the ocean, direct access to the ocean for paddle boarding and kayaking, a HUGE permanent tiki hut, and so much more! Islamorada was so incredibly beautiful with so much to do and so many fantastic restaurants. We celebrated our November wedding during our week stay and it was the most incredible night! Our guests could not stop raving about how stunning the property was. Mark was extremely attentive to all details the day of the wedding, ensuring everything was set up/in working order and smoothed the sand in the ceremony and reception areas for us. There was truly nothing better than having a wedding and vacation all in one! If you are looking for a private, beachfront venue to celebrate your wedding ceremony and reception – look no further than The Oasis!!!

This Island Retreat was more than just any property. It was a slice of heaven. Two charming houses set amidst palm trees had spectacular views of the ocean with a sparkling turquois blue infinity pool from soaring windows. The compound came equipped with six super nice mountain bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, games, and lots of outdoor space to relax. It is pet friendly, and the huge space had a gate around the premises so our dogs could run free, and they may have had more fun than anyone! The kitchens were well-stocked. Plenty of linens and towels. The owners were the best to work with, and they were in touch during our stay. The area is ideal. Walking distance to many restaurants and beer gardens. Lots to do in the area - snorkeling, dolphin swims, state parks, deep sea fishing...but my kids really just enjoyed the gorgeous setting reading their books by the pool. But, if you are lucky, the pet iguana, "Blue" may come out to greet you - just be sure to have lots of lettuce on hand!

The Oasis is an amazing piece of heaven. If you are lucky enough to stay here, then you are indeed lucky. The property is just beautiful, the owners have thought of every detail. And if you need something else, the owners do their best to make it happen. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our week here. Highly recommend!

My family and I recently had the pleasure of hosting our daughter's, Myah's wedding at The Oasis, a stunning 3-acre private estate located at 82703 Old Hwy, Islamorada, Florida. Owned and meticulously cared for by Doli and Mark, the hosts extraordinaire, The Oasis provided an enchanting backdrop for a weekend filled with love, laughter, and lifelong memories. From the moment we stepped onto the property, it was evident that The Oasis was more than just a wedding venue; it was a carefully curated haven where dreams come true. The attention to detail exhibited by Dolli and Mark in maintaining the estate is truly commendable. The lush grounds, adorned with beautifully lit palm trees, created a magical ambiance, especially in the evening when the lights shimmered, casting a warm glow over the celebration. The highlight of our wedding weekend was the breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean that served as a picturesque backdrop for the ceremony. The sound of the waves, the gentle sea breeze, and the golden Florida sun all contributed to the idyllic setting that every couple dreams of for their special day. The Oasis seamlessly blends natural beauty with thoughtful landscaping, creating a one-of-a-kind experience. We opted to extend our celebration over the weekend, hosting a rehearsal dinner on Friday, February 16, the wedding on Saturday, February 17, and concluding with a delightful Sunday brunch on February 18. The flexibility and versatility of The Oasis allowed for a seamless transition between events, ensuring that each moment was as special as the last. Dolli and Mark's hospitality was exceptional. Their commitment to making our experience personal and stress-free was evident in every interaction. From coordinating logistics to accommodating special requests, they went above and beyond to ensure that our celebration was nothing short of perfection. In conclusion, The Oasis at Islamorada is not just a wedding venue; it's a destination where dreams are realized, and love is celebrated in its purest form. Our daughter's wedding was nothing short of epic, thanks to the enchanting atmosphere created by Dolli and Mark. If you are seeking a wedding venue that combines natural beauty, impeccable service, and a touch of magic, The Oasis is the perfect choice. Our heartfelt thanks to Doli and Mark for creating an unforgettable experience that will be cherished by our family for a lifetime. Sincerely, Doris and George Atkinson

The Oasis in Islamorada is truly a slice of paradise. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew it was something special. The grounds are breathtaking—lush, peaceful, and immaculately kept. It’s the kind of place that immediately makes you feel both relaxed and enchanted, which is exactly how we felt throughout our entire wedding weekend. What truly set The Oasis apart wasn’t just the stunning backdrop—it was the warmth and care of the people behind it. The owner went above and beyond for us, helping make every detail feel personal and seamless. You can tell that he puts his heart into every couple's experience. Our families and guests couldn't stop talking about how magical everything felt, and we couldn't agree more. Being locals, it was especially meaningful for us to celebrate such an important milestone in our own backyard, and The Oasis made it feel like we were hosting loved ones in our own home. It was the perfect place to begin our lives together, and we’re already dreaming about coming back for our one-year anniversary. If you're looking for a venue that is not only stunning but also deeply personal and filled with heart, The Oasis is it. We are forever grateful. – Melissa & Spencer

The Oasis is a spacious ocean front property. The two houses were perfect accommodations for our group of four. We were able to relax in the heated pool or in the outdoor living room. Both overlook the Atlantic. Kayaks, paddle boards and bikes were provided. We put all to good use. I highly recommend!

The property was very clean and in great condition. Views are spectacular, especially from the ocean side pool. Sunrises.....WOW!!! We enjoyed the kayaking and paddle-boarding in the shallow sea-grasses, and saw sand sharks, stingrays, and various other fish. The location is very convenient to many restaurants and the new Publix's store; either a short drive or a reasonable walk away. The main house is really just a one couple building, with the second house handling two couples (although you need to share one small bathroom). Great week on the beach!

The Oasis house was a dream. We had our wedding there and the pictures were like out of a magazine. Not only was it a beautiful venue for our wedding, but a perfect place to honeymoon due to the luxury and privacy of this home. Plus it was nice not having to pack up the next day and go somewhere else. Everything was absolutely beautiful. Mark and Doli, the hosts did an amazing job at making sure everything was perfect for our wedding and stay and we loved Doli's paintings, they added a chic feel to the property. They offer a lot at The Oasis, from kayaks, beach games, personal cooler, and bikes; you really get the whole package. You can tell they care for the home and your experience during your stay which is hard to find in rentals. We truly loved our stay, the property, and the customer service at The Oasis.

It was my good fortune to visit the Oasis in July 2021. From the sunrise over the Atlantic to evening swims in the private pool my visit was a must needed respite. The spacious grounds and homes on the property are pristinely kept. This was an unforgettable getaway.

August 2021
The Oasis is everything the pictures show! We were amazed at the views from the houses, the pool and the private beach area. It is truly a private paradise oasis! The location of the property relative to anything you'd want to visit in Islamorada is very convenient. Grilling and cooking were very easy with the provided amenities. The beds were all very comfortable, the bathrooms nicely updated and the decor in the houses well done. The pool had been recently redone and is the most logical and user friendly pool I have ever been in! It has a shallow area on the one end with small fountain/lounge chairs/table, full pool width steps leading down to the 5' level, and continuous side step along the long edge that you can either sit in the pool and look to the west or on the side of the pool with just your fit in. The views just sitting anywhere in the pool are endless! Thank you Mark and Doli for sharing your outstanding Turquoise and Blue vista Oasis with us!

Having being friends of the owners, we spent a relaxing week enjoying the views from this large property while they were doing renovations for future guests. One of the owners is an artist and we were able to see her latest in process paintings. The villa we stayed in contained beautiful paintings by the owner. To get up early in the morning and see the sunrise on this landscape is worth the getaway. The property is centrally located in Islamorada and a must restaurant is Square One. The property itself is set up with strategically placed palms allowing for atleast 30 or more vehicles for parking. Within a block walk is the Islamarado brewery. The brews are very good. There is a pool, jet skis, and kayaks on this property to use during your stay. We are looking forward to going back and recharging from our stressful jobs on island time.

This is an amazing property located in the heart of Islamorada. When we arrived the house was well cleaned and beautiful. You cannot beat the views. The pool was amazing, I believe they recently updated it and the lounge area is great. You can walk/bike to essentially any store/restaurant. All questions were answered ASAP, truly great stay. No complaints!

We rented the Oasis villa for our wedding and hosted a beach day, rehearsal dinner, welcome party and our ceremony & reception all onsite. From start to finish our experience with Mark and the property was outstanding. The location of the house was perfect, the accommodations were great, and the ocean view, beach and pool were just spectacular. We had tens of guests telling us this was the best wedding that they had ever attended, largely because of this incredible venue. Mark, our host, went above and beyond to ensure every last detail was absolutely perfect. We are already brainstorming with our group of friends when we can return to the house for a reunion trip. I would recommend this stay 10 out of 10 times. Mark, thank you for everything!!!

I have been fortunate enough to grow up spending every free weekend and summer in Islamorada at my families homes and it was only fitting to have my husband and I start the next journey of our life’s here as well. I am so happy we chose this property because it really was the perfect space to make our special day come to life. The property is perfect to host weddings or any events of any size. The owner Mark was only a phone call away with any questions leading up to our big day as well as any we had while staying on the property. We will forever cherish the memories we made with friends and family here.

The views are unreal! The pictures and video on the website are accurate as the home and property are well cared for and the pool was simply amazing.

We had my daughter's wedding at The Oasis and it was absolutely perfect! The place is so beautiful and kept to perfection. Mark was so great to work with leading up to the wedding and then came the morning of the wedding to make sure the grounds were picture perfect. He stayed on site for awhile in case we needed him. Every single guest commented on how beautiful the wedding was because of the gorgeous venue. I just cannot express how much this was the perfect place for her wedding. We also stayed the whole week and absolutely loved it!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Oasis. Everything was just as expected, and communication with the owners was easy! We found a favorite restaurant while here, Lazy Days, and enjoyed it a couple different times. We used the paddle boards and kayaks easily even though we had no experience with them. That was a great way to see even more ocean life! In the evenings we enjoyed sitting on the ledge of the concrete and just watching the water! We saw a small shark, several sting rays, an abundance of hermit crabs and even a puffer fish just watching from the ledge. I cannot say enough great things about this stay! Thank you for letting us enjoy your property!

We stayed at the Oasis for 1 week and were fortunate enough to host our wedding on their beautiful property. Mark and Doli have an absolute dream of a property. Mark was very helpful in the process and with working with our planner. The pool, the tiki, kayaks, everything was amazing. We hope to be able to stay again in the future as we had the most relaxing and wonderful time. Thank you so much!!!

My daughter had her wedding at the Oasis and we couldn't be happier with how everything went. I have to say going into this 244 people wedding, it had us very nervous with a venue we basically never heard of. We had to bring in many different venders for this event. Mark stayed thru the end of the wedding and made sure that they all had the proper electrical setups that they needed to pull off the wedding. We understood later that this was the largest wedding they ever had on the property. The morning of the wedding Mark was out there at sunrise raking the sand and making sure everything was perfect for us. Which honestly was something he promised a year ago and I was very skeptical it would happen. But as promised he was there. The two houses on the property made everything very convenient for us. The girls had their house to get ready and my husband and I had ours. Both houses are extremely clean and have everything you possibly would need. Probably the best thing though, was having your daughter tell you the morning after that every single thing went as planned. The wedding was everything she dreamed of. All of this was possible because of the Oasis.

Absolutely stunning property! Pulling in you are greeted by a gate opening into a pebbled driveway lined by palm trees. In the evening, light illuminates the trees and drive. Pulling up to the houses you are greeted by a gorgeous view of the ocean. The houses themselves are unique in their own way, they come well stocked with anything you will need including beach bikes, paddle boards, kayaks, lawn games, and you also have access to your own private pool. The property allows for large groups to have their own privacy with the two houses. Both have fully stocked kitchens to allow for all the home cooking you want. Mark and Doli are wonderful and easy to get into contact with. Highly recommend staying at The Oasis!

The land these two homes is on are absolutely stunning. When entering the gates, your breath will be taken away. The houses were clean, updated, and comfortable. The bed in the main house is incredibly comfortable! Do note, we visited in July and the seaweed on the beachfront was so thick and heavy that there was no sand beach to relax on. Also, the area around the water that you see on the pictures is rock so you will need water shoes. The only way to get to sandy ocean is on the kayaks provided. The owner was easy to contact and quick to answer with any concerns though. My beach vacation was limited to the pool because of the water situation which is my only complaint but that’s not owner’s fault…just nature!

Our daughter had a PERFECT wedding here! With 220 guests, their largest to date, everything went off flawlessly and Mark was there to ensure that. The property and views are gorgeous and would highly recommend this as a place to vacation and marry to anyone. The Oasis is truly and oasis!

Fantastic property, probably unbeatable in the keys for a wedding. Take pictures inside and out before and after your stay to avoid discrepancies on cleaning/damages. Thank you Mark and Doli.

The property is stunning as soon as you pull into the gates it’s like your own little oasis! The views are just amazing and the pool on the property is like it’s right in the ocean. We had an amazing 2 weeks. Mark, our host was very responsive to all our needs! We would definitely come back. Lots of wonderful restaurants around to have the catch of the day and watch the sun set on the bay side. Definitely a gem! I miss having my coffee on the balcony and watching the sun rise….

I don't even know where to begin...the place is beautiful! The grounds are well manicured and beautifully lit with the palm trees. and then you turn around and see the beach and the beautiful ocean and it really sets off some positive vibes. We loved the oceanside pool in the evening for a sundown swim. Both units are very nice and well stocked. Absolutely no complaints about this place and I could see how it would be a perfect venue for a wedding because the grounds are flat, clean and beautiful what more can you ask for? Also it's very cool of the owners to provide bicycles and kayaks that was a plus for us!.

Start with the PROS- the palm trees are amazing. The pool is nice. CONS- Cheap EVERYTHING... Bedding, Pots and pans, dishes (dirty forks), towels. This is a super small place for a lot of money. There is no room to cook or prepare meals. The furniture in the living room is very uncomfortable to sit on , not practical at all. The listing states that it is the ONLY home with ACTUAL beach....there is not a usable beach here by any means. I would also like to mention that my reservation that had been booked for months was cancelled on me 10 days prior to arrival , then in order for me to rebook(which I panicked to do asap since I had my captain bringing my boat and boat space paid for amongst other things that were also paid for in advance), I was only given a option of $200 more a night which was never refunded. The owner said it was a accident that he canceled on me but I am sure he was hoping I would not notice the upcharge. The owner also came on the property 3 different occasions all while we were gone . There is cameras all over the property so they knew when we would leave and ask "is it ok if we stop by and grab this or that".

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful gated property in Islamorada, Florida, where my wife and I brought our family for two weeks. This stunning Oasis features two separate houses that are well maintained, providing both space and comfort for everyone. One noted highlight was definitely the fantastic pool right on the ocean, where we spent countless hours relaxing and enjoying the breathtaking views. We were delighted by the abundant seabirds and other interesting wildlife around – it really felt like a slice of paradise. The property is so peaceful and private; it was the perfect getaway. One of the best parts, for the family experience , was being able to kayak right off our private beach, exploring the serene waters at our leisure. Watching the sunrise over the ocean each morning was truly inspiring, a magical way to start each day and to relish in the Divine of God’s creative work! Although it was a family trip, we came here to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary on Valentine’s day and we couldn’t have chosen a better spot! Renewing our commitments under the palms of the Oasis was simply unforgettable. Everything about our stay was perfect, and we can't wait to return! Thank you Mark & Doli for an amazing experience! And thank you for maintaining this property at such a high standard! ---
