About this property

Waterfront Dream Condo with Panoramic Views, Near Vaca Cut

Turn off of Route 1, leave behind all the hubbub of life, while holding on to the infectious laid back, slower-paced atmosphere of the Keys, and drive to the end of our beautiful, scenic peninsula and what immediately feels like another world – memorable, quiet Gulfpointe 2.

This idyllic, amenity-packed condo complex is surrounded by water, and our newly renovated, luxury-styled unit, Gulfsidehaven, has expansive, spectacular views, a welcome, prevailing breeze, and ample privacy thanks to its waterfront, corner location.

With the Keys famous for its fishing and diving, Gulfpointe 2 has a well-equipped, private dock with 8 slips and convenient, direct access to the Atlantic via Vaca Cut.

How great is this condo? Well, we vacationed here ourselves and loved it so much, we bought it!

THE HIGHLIGHTS

2 bedrooms, including:

1 King bed in the Master Suite

2 Queen beds in the Guest Bedroom

2 Full baths

1 Half bath

1400 sq. ft.

Free WiFi

2 Levels

2 Free, covered parking spots

2 Gulf-view balconies

3 Flat-screens (one in each bedroom + living area)

AND ONE AMAZING VIEW

Many of our guests comment on the view from our rental—which, as a corner unit, really does have some of the best seats in the house.

Spend your afternoon watching the serene show from the third floor, wraparound balcony that suspends you over amazing Gulf views—a typical scene includes boating activity, small planes, egrets, pelicans and, occasionally, manatees. Stick around for sunset, pour your favorite drink, and settle into your front-row spot for a memorable show.

Inside the recently remodeled condo, find new wood plank tile floors, new quartz countertops, new appliances in the well-stocked kitchen and new bathrooms.

ABOUT THE COMPLEX

Gulfpointe 2 is known for its amenities and, particularly for its private boat dock with 8 slips (first-come, first served). You'll even find excellent fishing right off the dock.

There's also a bait freezer, gear locker and a fish cleaning station available to guests. Grill your fresh catch on the gas grill on the lower balcony and dig in at the outdoor dining table, which has waterfront views and ambiance to beat any restaurant.

The complex also features a pool, which is steps away from the unit and heated in the winter months. You're just minutes from Route 1, but still very much a world away from the bustle.

THE LOCATION

Many fly south (about as "south" as you can get in the U.S.!) for the Keys' world-famous fishing, diving and boating. The Keys phenomenal fishing offerings include offshore, reef/wreck & backcountry. For snorkelers and scuba divers, start on the barrier reef with Looe Key or Sombrero Reef; there are also great snorkeling spots right off the beaches in Marathon and nearby Bahia Honda.

For more of a "sun worshipper" vacation, superb beaches nearby include Sombrero Beach and Coco Plum in Marathon and Calusa, Loggerhead, and mile long Sandspur beaches at Bahia Honda.
Cross iconic Seven Mile Bridge on your way to Bahia Honda or Key West for sightseeing, shopping, dining, nightlife and more. Nature and marine life lovers have several options for observing and learning in Marathon, including the Dolphin Research Center, the Turtle Hospital, Florida Keys Aquarium Encounters and the National Key Deer Refuge on neighboring Big Pine Key.

To keep you supplied, well-fed and ready to go, Marathon has great restaurants, full-service marinas, bait & tackle stores, marine stores, dive shops, grocery stores, Home Depot, Walgreens, etc. Everything a convenient, easy 5-10 minute drive from Gulfsidehaven.

The view and the place was very nice. Some items are a bit dated, some of kitchen supplies are old or not provided, but overall we had a great time.

The Views! WOW!
House was immaculate. The attention to detail was second to none. Including the little things like night lights that came on automatically, the extra outlets throughout house, and the USB ports in bedrooms didn’t go unnoticed. Comfortable furniture and the bedding was so soft. Love that every switch was labeled so it was easy to figure out. Gracious hosts and local resident Lorraine was very nice.

Home in paradise
The description on this property was very accurate. We were a family of 4 with 2 teenage boys. We enjoyed fishing on the docks and caught lots of fish (and released). Kitchen was wonderfully stocked with all those unthinkable things like spices, cooking spray, etc. The start up kit was very helpful. Also, the host gave us some very helpful tips for our trip in, like to secure provisions in Florida City before heading down to the islands, where prices increase. They also labeled everything around the condo for ease of use. The pool was wonderful. Everyone we met in the community was a pleasure and several offered restaurant suggestions or tips for the boys on fishing. We would absolutely recommend staying at this property. Hopefully we will be able to come back again soon! It truly felt like home away from home. Thank you to The Schlueter's for having us!

First visit to the Keys
Our 17 year old asked to visit the Florida Keys for vacation this summer. We are so glad we picked Marathon for our trip. There are many great restaurants options, a couple of ice-cream options, and moderate drives to do many things along the keys. We were easily able to meet friends for a fishing day, travel to Key West got s day trip, go to Looe Key for snorkeling on the reef, and still enjoy sunsets off of the back balcony. We would definitely recommend this property for your vacation to the Florida Keys.

About the host

Hosted by Heidi Schlueter

Host profile image
My family and I have always enjoyed travelling the world. My husband and I even met on an outdoor survival school (yes, one of those places they throw you in the desert and teach you how to survive), got married just outside of Florence, Italy, and have tried to spend every minute travelling that we can.

Why they chose this property

With all of our travelling, something keeps drawing us back to the Florida Keys. The laid back atmosphere, friendly people, and warm climate are all a huge draw. When we found Gulfpointe 2, we finally felt we had found our home away from home. We hope you love it as much as we do.
