School is on the horizon for many, but summer is not quite gone yet, and there's still time for one more beach trip. I knew exactly where I wanted to go next when I saw these breathtaking pictures of a property in Islamorada in the Florida Keys.

I can imagine myself relaxing next to the fire pit, taking in the view of the Atlantic Ocean.

Or enjoying a nice outdoor barbecue with friends and family in this chikee (open-air hut).

And I'm always up for a dip in the pool, especially with a view like this.

Unfortunately, this is a private residence, but I love the scenery of the Keys.

What are your plans for your last summer trip?

What a beautiful place, Islamorada. As for myself and my child, living in the Lowcountry is like having one last summer trip everyday.

So pretty. The Keys are definitely on my list of future travel destinations.
