Five days in Key West, facing the water
Five days with the motorhome on the waterfront in Sugarloaf Key, with a car to explore the Keys at your own pace.
This is not a road trip. It is the opposite: it is staying put.
Bluewater Key is in Sugarloaf Key, minutes from Key West, and every lot has its own private tiki hut, a grill and — depending on the lot — water in front and its own dock. The motorhome parks on the first day and does not move again. You wake up, have coffee under the thatch, get in the water, and decide on the spot whether you are going to Key West or staying.
That is why the package includes a rental car for the whole week. The resort's rules do not allow using the motorhome as transport after check-in — which, in practice, is a good thing: you don't have to break camp every time you want to eat out.
Five days are enough to do the Keys without rushing. One day of historic Key West, one day on a boat over the reef, one day without leaving the lot and one day at Bahia Honda. And every night, with the sound of the water a few metres away.
An honest note on fit: Bluewater Key is a quiet resort, with a pool and a dock, but without the play structure and children's programming of the Orlando resorts. It works very well for couples, for families with older children and for multi-generation trips. With a small child who needs action all day, one of our Central Florida itineraries probably fits better.

Day-to-day
- Down the Overseas Highway and check-in — Arrival in Sugarloaf Key with time to spare. Check-in is escorted by a resort staff member, who guides the motorhome to the lot, and has to happen before the office closes — the cut-off time is on your voucher. The Overseas Highway is short in distance and slow in real time, and there is no detour.

Swimming with Manatees in Crystal River: How It Works, When to Go, and What's True
— The water is crystal clear and stays around 22 °C (72 °F) all year round. You wade in slowly, without splashing your legs, and wait. A half-metric-ton creature appears from the depths, swims by a meter away, and continues on its way as if you weren’t even there. It’s two hours from Orlando, and almost no Brazilians know it exists.

Florida's Springs by RV: 22-degree water just an hour from Orlando
— Crystal-clear water flowing from the ground, a constant temperature of around 22 °C (72 °F) year-round, a forest all around, and almost no Brazilian tourists. Silver Springs has offered glass-bottom boat tours since the 19th century, and monkeys come down to the water’s edge. It’s just over an hour from the parks.

The Everglades by RV: Sleeping at the End of the Continent, Among Alligators and Stars
— Flamingo is located 61 km past the park entrance, at the southernmost point of the American continent. At night, there is no town, no cell phone signal, and no artificial light anywhere. A child raised in a big city often sees the entire sky there for the first time.

Key West by RV: The Overseas Highway, Campgrounds, and What Nobody Tells You Ahead of Time
— There are 42 bridges over turquoise water. In some spots, you can’t see land on either side—just the road and the sea—and it feels like you’ve taken a wrong turn and driven right into the ocean.
