Holiday apartment in Everglades

A holiday apartment in Everglades offers you the perfect combination of independence and comfort. Enjoy Impressive nature and experience Everglades like a local – with your own retreat after an action-packed day.

The Everglades are a unique ecosystem worldwide: A slowly flowing, only a few centimeters deep river of freshwater that stretches over 6,000 square kilometers of subtropical wilderness. This UNESCO World Heritage National Park in southern Florida is home to an incredible diversity of species — from alligators and crocodiles (one of the few places in the world where both species coexist) to manatees and rare Florida panthers.

The Shark Valley Trail is one of the most popular access points: A 24-kilometer loop leads by bike or tram through sawgrass prairies, where alligators literally bask at the roadside. The observation tower at the end offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the endless grassland. On the Anhinga Trail at the Royal Palm Visitor Center, you can encounter water birds, turtles, and alligators within arm's reach.

Airboat tours through the mangrove channels are an adrenaline experience and provide insights into areas that would be inaccessible on foot. Kayak tours through the Ten Thousand Islands on the Gulf Coast reveal a tranquil water world of mangrove labyrinths and dolphin sightings. The best time to visit is from December to April (dry season), when animals concentrate around shrinking waterholes and mosquitoes are manageable. The Everglades are not a classic postcard park — but for nature lovers, it is an absolute must.
