Deer Run Bed & Breakfast

Fodor's Review:

Key deer wander the grounds of this beachfront B&B, set on a quiet street lined with buttonwoods and mangroves. Innkeepers Jen DeMaria and Harry Appel were way ahead of the green-lodging game when they opened in 2004, and they continue to make strides in environmental- and guest-friendliness. Two large oceanfront rooms are decorated in soothing earth tones and furnished with mahogany and pecan-wood furnishings. The beach-level unit is decorated in key lime and flamingo-pink, with wicker furnishings, and the garden-view room is an eclectic mix that includes Victorian farmhouse doors serving as the headboard of the queen-size bed. Guests share a living room and a veranda. The animal-friendly atmosphere extends to the kitchen, with a mostly organic breakfast menu suitable for vegetarians. Guest rooms are stocked with organic cotton towels and cruelty-free toiletries. Pros: quiet location; healthy breakfasts; enthusiastic owners. Cons: price is a bit high; hard to find.
