Located on beautiful Summerland Key, Sunset Serenity offers the perfect combination of waterfront living, boating convenience, and island relaxation.

After a day on the water, cool off in the private saltwater pool, relax on the waterfront deck, fire up one of the propane grills, or simply sit back and enjoy the spectacular sunsets that give this home its name.



Inside, the home offers two separate living areas, making it ideal for families, couples traveling together, and multi-generational groups who want plenty of space to gather while still enjoying privacy. Best of all, your well-behaved dogs are welcome, so the entire family can enjoy the Florida Keys together.

Exceptional Property

This vacation rental exceeded all expectations! The home was beautifully decorated and impeccably clean, making it feel like a true home away from home. The kitchen was fully equipped and had all high-end appliances. The outdoor space was a highlight, with a lovely pool, stunning views, perfect for morning coffee, mid-day splash and evening relaxation. It was an unforgettable experience, and I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

Best Stay Ever

My wife and I have been to the keys many times in our lives and stayed anywhere and everywhere in between Key Largo and Key West. In all of those vacations, I can’t say that any of them come out on top over our recent trip to Sunset Serenity. From the best hosts you could ever find to the location, amenities, location, you name it, the only thing that could have been better would be if we could have stayed longer!! Thanks to the hosts for sharing this amazing house! We can’t wait to go back!!

A Perfect Slice of Summerland Key Paradise

Our stay at Sunset Serenity was everything we hoped for and more. If you’re looking for the perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and true Florida Keys beauty, this home delivers it effortlessly. One of the biggest highlights was the incredible boating access. Within minutes, we were out on open water—whether heading offshore for ocean fishing, cruising through the Lower Keys, or enjoying a scenic boat ride all the way to Key West. For anyone who loves being on the water, this place is a dream. Back at the house, the views were unforgettable. Every evening felt like a private show with some of the most beautiful sunsets in the Keys right from the deck. It’s the kind of peaceful, golden glow you never get tired of. Inside, the home is just as impressive. The beautiful, well‑equipped kitchen made cooking easy and enjoyable, and the layout gave everyone plenty of space to relax. And having both a pool for swimming and lounging AND fantastic dockage for boating truly gave us the best of both worlds. Whether we were fishing, exploring, taking a lazy afternoon boat ride, or simply soaking in the views, Sunset Serenity lived up to its name. We can’t wait to return.
