Dolphin View

The description of the property is accurate. And as someone else mentioned in their review, you never have to leave the property. There is everything you can think of here to use and many kids toys. As far as owner communication goes, I would give them 6 starts if possible. They are extremely helpful and responsive for any question you would have.

Great house for kids

This house was amazing. We could have had a rich, full vacation without ever leaving the property. There are indoor and outdoor toys, kayaks, paddle boards, books, bikes, iguana sightings, games, and a perfectly-sized pool. The views are phenomenal and being able to see the dolphins is such a treat. The house was very clean, the kitchen well-equipped, and Kim and Bob had everything available that you could need, even family items like a stroller, a high chair, and a portable crib. They were available to answer all of our questions.

So much to do.

Dolphins next door, pool, and a private kept us entertained. Lots of gathering places in the house. Restaurant & bar next door along with kitchen space for cooking local seafood.

About the host

Hosted by Kim & Bob

Bob and I looked for many years for a home in Marathon. When we took one look at this house and property, we knew this was it. The private yard and waterfront are just what we wanted. Oh, and the Dolphins next store love, love, love them.
For now, we have open up our house for a vacation rental until we can hopefully one day retire and also enjoy our self. Please treat it as it is your own and thank you for considering us.
Sincerely
Dolphin View
