Happy Manatee
Florida Keys Waterfront Retreat | 30' Dockage | Tiki Hut | Cabana Club Access with Private Beach, Pool & Tiki Bar
Welcome to Happy Manatee, your slice of paradise in the heart of the Florida Keys, where island time slows down and life revolves around the water.
This beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront home is designed for laid-back coastal living, offering the perfect blend of comfort, sunshine, and classic Keys charm. With 30 feet of dockage, you can bring your boat and spend your days exploring the turquoise waters of the Atlantic Ocean, quickly access the Gulf, go fishing, lobstering, or cruise to nearby sandbars.
Back at Happy Manatee, unwind under your private Tiki Hut, relaxing in outdoor loungers as gentle ocean breezes and the sound of the water set the tone for total relaxation. After a day on the water, take advantage of the fish cleaning station and prepare your fresh catch of the day, then enjoy a sun-kissed dinner on the outdoor patio in true island style.
Just a short walk away, you’ll have access to the exclusive Cabana Club, one of Key Colony Beach’s most sought-after amenities. Your membership includes:
• Private oceanfront beach
• Resort-style swimming pool

• Lounge chairs with stunning ocean views
Whether you’re soaking up the sun by the water, enjoying a drink at the tiki bar, or simply relaxing at home under the palms, Happy Manatee delivers the ultimate Florida Keys experience.
Perfect for boaters, anglers, and anyone looking to unwind in a true coastal setting, Happy Manatee is the Keys the way it’s meant to be.
Come relax, recharge, and enjoy island living at its finest.
