Just Book It Already
The vibe! The food! The view! The hosts! All so wonderful!!! We’ve stayed at lots of different vegan BnBs and this is hands-down the best! We love Jen and Harry and their cats! Jen’s cooking is delicious and so varied. We live in the NY with tons of vegan restaurants and her food is better than almost all of them!

Wonderful few days
We loved the seclusion of this wonderful B&B..breakfast was nice and as an extra bonus they have started doing a packed lunch for 15$ per person. Harry was incredibly informative and Jen was very kind to share her recipes with me.
Seeing the deer wander around was magical and lots of other wildlife pootling around too.
Just make sure you have good bug spray as the noseeums were horrendous.

Sadly not worth the money
We had a relaxing stay in an oceanfront room and enjoyed seeing the deer and birds that frequent the property. The location is very quiet and remote so you really do feel like you've gotten away from it all. We took the kayaks out one morning and had a great time paddling around the mangroves and spotting all types of birds and even a sea turtle.
Unfortunately they no longer provide a full breakfast, which was rather disappointing after reading all the previous rave reviews. Some vegan baked goods and fresh fruit are put out in the morning alongside paper plates and disposable cutlery. We went to Winn Dixie and purchased some other breakfast items as we just cannot eat pastries every morning. There is a fridge in the room, which was definitely very handy. I do recommend purchasing the vegan boxed lunches, which are healthy and delicious.
I'd rate our stay here as just fine but sadly not worth the price. I regretted spending $3,000 in total for 5 nights here.

Hi Melanie, thank you for taking the time to write a review of your recent stay at Deer Run on the Atlantic. We appreciate that you chose our location as part of your stay in the Keys. Both Harry and I are sorry that you were not happy with our breakfast. As Covid wore on, it became evident to us that most travelers preferred more flexibility with their time, including their breakfast choices with so many people declining food completely. Our website has been updated with our current business model for quite a while, including prior to when you booked. In fact our site was updated prior to when we even reopened for reservations at all after our summer break. We also made a point to rebrand after we reopened from Hurricane Irma with “Deer Run on the Atlantic” to help people realize there had been changes, which are stated on our website. We’re glad you enjoyed the box lunch option. We added that when we shifted the breakfast. Our goal with that is to offer affordable, delicious lunch, to be enjoyed by any guests at their chosen time. This is another way we work to accommodate the traveler’s desire for more autonomy.
We have no control over older reviews that discuss amenities that are no longer here. We can only be responsible for content created by us under our control, which is our website and social media presence.
While it’s disheartening to read that you regret staying here because of what seems like solely the breakfast, we are happy you enjoyed pretty much everything else about Deer Run, especially the location and kayaks. Use of our kayaks, bicycles, salt water spa, parking on our gated property and room amenities of private bath, flat screen TV and Wi-Fi do not come with any resort fees, usage fees, or whatever so many other places call hidden upcharges. Our inclusive rates are exceptionally competitive in the Florida Keys; we strive to do our best, always have and always will.
Our interactions were all positive during your stay; we do not even recall even a hint that you were as dissatisfied as your review states. We would have welcomed dialogue while you were here regarding what else we could have done to transmit to you or any other traveler what to expect during your stay, as well as to open dialogue on any other concerns.
We’ve been here close to 20 years, and our industry continues to flex as the world, and travelers, have changed. Instead of retiring, we have battled back through a devastating hurricane causing us to close for 2 solid years, and then Covid changing the travelscape most likely for a very long time to come. We have done what is possible within our control to make very clear what we do offer at Deer Run on the Atlantic.
We remain grateful you did stay with us, and hope that you are able to find what you seek in the future.
Respectfully,
Harry & Jen
Innkeepers and Owners

Exactly what we needed
My wife and I celebrated our 13 year wedding anniversary at this lovely bed and breakfast. Although the place was completely booked we felt as if we were the only ones there. You randomly see deer throughout the day and they are very friendly. We had a great time kayaking as well as bike riding around the area. We are not vegan but the vegan breakfasts were delicious. Jens chocolate chip cookies to are to die for and we would probably book again just for the cookies that were in our room during check in. Deer run is just a few miles away from Bahia Honda which is definitely worth a visit. Key West was only a 30 minute drive from there too. Harry and Jen were excellent hosts and we look forward to going back one day.

what a quiet restorative spot
There are literally Key deer wandering through the property throughout the day. Big room, good a/c, great balcony, so private a quiet... perfect spot for me and my husband for 4 nights. The vegan breakfasts are huge. It's away from hustle and bustle. Having the bikes and kayaks there is so nice, and we spent one day just sitting around the deck, beach, and screened-in ground floor open area all day with no one around.
Excellent location
