the room and grounds were beautiful. the deer were amazing and the view excellent

Danielle United States of America

If you are looking for a relaxing spot, away from crowds and people, Deer Run on the Atlantic is the place to stay. The room was new, clean, comfortable. Tastefully decorated. You are greeted upon arrival, shown to your room where fresh cookies are waiting for you. There is a refrigerator in the room. The owner was very friendly, gave us a tour of the B&B and a bit of history about the location. Every morning they would make a breakfast box for each guest. The owners are vegan, and so is the food. Baked goods were delicious! There is a gate at the end of the drive with a code to enter. The location is remote. Key deer on premises.

Denise United States of America

The location was fantastic. Bicycles and kayaks were free use.

Moody United States of America

Where to start? After visiting The Keys about 20 times during our 33 years of marriage,THIS ONE topped them all! This place is totally surrounded by nature and "Bamby's" cousins coming out of every corner, it's beautiful, there are kayaks and bikes to enjoy. The staff (owners), the kind of human beings that this world needs so much, awesome people that you only wish you've met them long before... The location is so private that sometimes you wonder if you are the only one around, and the breakfast???! Let me just say that if you are not Vegan or Vegetarian, I dare you to try their incredible and delicious cooking and realize that there is something better for you out there, it's AMAZING And to put it in a different way, this place can change and in some cases even SAVE YOUR LIFE., Thanks Harry and "his Jen", you are awesome. JC and my San.

Alexandre United States of America

Perfect location right on the beach! Not a swimming beach. We wanted a quiet place for R&R and we found it! There are only 8 guests at a time, so you could find a quiet place easily. Harry and his wonderful wife were wonderful in meeting our needs and very friendly.

Cathy United States of America

Breakfast was delicious and fresh and the property was peaceful.

Stephanie United States of America

Food was great. Conversation was wonderful. Deer were lovely. Sunrises were beautiful. Harry and Jen have a wonderful location, rooms and serve with a smile. They go above and beyond in all areas.

Here at Deer Run on the Atlantic, we offer a beautiful mix of modern comfort and amenities in a rural, rustic location. Deer Run is located with full Southern exposure on the Atlantic ocean with a natural “living” beach, something that is very exclusive, but highly sought after, in the Florida Keys. Kick off your shoes, stretch out on a lounger, and allow yourself to heal from the grind of work and obligations. We strive to offer you a throwback Keys experience that most people thought was lost decades ago. **We are 2 miles off US1, No noise from road, private stetting, gated entrance for your privacy.**
Deer Run on the Atlantic is green lodging in the authentic sense. Perhaps places consider themselves “green” but the main component… food… is almost always the “elephant in the room.” We are a 100% plant based, vegan establishment. This extends far beyond our food, but yes it does include our food. We source as much organic as possible (including organic sheets and towels), have comforters in the rooms stuffed with RePET fill, have water saver toilets, showers and faucets, heavily xeriscaped the property, compost, recycle, support fair trade including our coffee, chocolate, cocoa and vanilla (those industries are known for their human exploitation/slave labor practices), source vintage items and Made in the USA items, have LED lighting and solar lighting throughout the inn and grounds, use EnergyStar high efficiency appliances in front & back of the house, launder with Free & Clear detergent, buy in bulk, do not use travel-size toiletries, and so much more. We are platinum rated as a Green Property by TripAdvisor, and are rated by the State of Florida Green Lodging Program as a 4-palm property. The only 4 Palm rated Resort in all the Florida Keys one of 6 in the state!
Big Pine and the lower Keys are far more rural than most other Keys. The area has a charter boat company offering diving and snorkeling, an eco-tour company offering a wide variety of custom tours, kayak and paddle board tours, Florida Keys National Wildlife Refuges Visitor Center, skydiving and Bahia Honda State Park, all within a short drive.
