Marathon get away

Property was very neat and clean, there were clear instructions on the fridge regarding garbage, recycle bins and fish cleaning and storage, this was helpful. The home was so cutely decorated it really gave me that beach vacation vibe. The location was perfect, close enough to walk or bike to many local restaurants or stores. Overall, I would go back to stay again!

The reviews were spot on! This home is not only beautiful but also impeccably maintained. It has everything you could possibly need for a wonderful stay. Enjoy stunning views of the open water, a charming Tiki hut, and a heated pool. It's within walking distance to the 7 Mile Grill, Porky's, and Sea Dog Charters, which we took out on Christmas Day. Plus, the fishing from the dock is fantastic! Hope to book again soon!.

The property is great with a small pool, tiki hut and a place to dock your boat, which worked great for us. The house is well decorated and furnished. There are a couple of restaurants within easy walking distance as well. We will definitely stay here again.

Another amazing stay!

This is the second time we have stayed here and it was just as great as the last. The house and grounds are always so clean and well kept. We have rented a boat both times and docked it out back. It is such a convenient place to boat from and the dock is easy to get in and out of. Thanks again for such a wonderful stay!

Great Family Getaway

This property was a beautiful house and location on water. My husband, me and 2 teenage kids stayed here last week. We saw manatees and dolphin from dock. We fished every day from dock, caught smaller fish and an eel (yikes) and also rented a boat from Pipps. This was our 4th trip to Marathon, different location. We walked to breakfast most morning's which was nice.

Amazing Week In Paradise

We have stayed in the keys several times… this is by far the nicest property we’ve rented. The location is perfect… walking distance to lots of restaurants and activities. Walking distance to the seven mile bridge… the home has gorgeous views. My husband and I had a fabulous vacation, and perfect weather. We were able to hang out and relax, but also enjoyed all the fun the keys have to offer. Our only regret is not staying longer! We will be back next year for sure!

This was our 5th year staying at this home. House and property were remarkable! We rented a boat and spent most the time on the water. Love the back dock. Pool is great to cool off in. Fishing off the dock at night is a must!

Beautiful View . Great Location. Nice House

This was a great property, house was very clean, and they had everything that you would need already there. Check in and out was simple. We had a great time and would go back again. We visit Marathon, FL 4-5 times a year and we been staying at different homes to try to find one that fits and this house meets all of our check marks.

Very well maintained, clean and comfortable rental. Well stocked kitchen and nice new outdoor area and splash pool. So many pluses but on the downside, the outdoor security cameras (there are LOTS of them) made some in our group uncomfortable.

About the host

Hosted by Paulo Oliveira

Host profile image
I am an engineer and live in Lake Worth, Florida.
We love this house and it is a very special place for my wife and I.

Why they chose this property

We made trips to the Bahamas every summer for many years until we rented a house in Marathon and trailer our boat down for two weeks in 2015. We really love the area and got all exited to own a property there. We felt in love with this home the first time we saw it and purchase it in 2016. It has beem our paradise since.
The best place to relax, fishing or just appreciate the wonderful water view.

What makes this property unique

Stilt home with an open water view to the horizon and located close to the 7 mile bridge, no matter which way the wind blows, most days you can find a place to fish. The bridge, one of the very best "fishing holes" is five minutes from the dock. The Gulf is your front yard & the Ocean is just around the corner.
