Property was just as described home was clean and very comfortable. The dock can easily accommodate a 30 foot boat. We were very happy with our staying and looking forward to staying here once again. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a place to stay in the Florida Keys 10 stars.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled you found the home clean, comfortable, and especially glad the dock worked well for your boat. It was a pleasure hosting you and can’t wait to welcome you back to the Keys!
You won't regret staying in this home. It was fabulous! The Villa was beautiful - clean and fully stocked with everything you need. Bonus: We caught tarpon off the dock and had manatees visit us every day - all week. The owner couldn't have been more delightful. She was accommodating, helpful and kind. Do yourself a favor a book this one! Deb Crisp - St. Petersburg.

Fabulous vacation home in Marathon! Check in was easy, the host was extremely responsive, house was clean with a well stocked kitchen. A short walk to the beach with a clean pool and a great dock for fishing (even has a green light). We would stay here again!

Great VRBO experience. House was clean and well stocked. Pool and dock were perfect for what we needed. Loved the location near to sombrero beach and short ride to the mouth of sisters creek. Will be a go to house for us in future trips to keys.

Hi Valerie, thank you for the wonderful review and we’re so glad you came back for a second stay! It makes us happy knowing The Grand Slam helped make more great Marathon memories. We can’t wait to welcome you back for year three! :)
Beautiful Home in Walking Distance to Sombrero Beach!
Our group was five couples and we each had our own room and bathroom. The kitchen, dining and living area, the large porch on the second floor, and the pool accommodated us well. The beach was a 9-10 minute walk.
The house was amazing! Short walk to the beach. Kitchen was well stocked compared to most places we’ve stayed. Getting the kayaks and paddleboards in and out at the dock was interesting but made for funny stories and pictures. Loved having our own pool. Would absolutely stay here again!

Thank you for the kind words and we’re so glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed your week! Looking forward to having you back soon!
We had a wonderful stay at the Grand Slam! The location was amazing- we were able to walk to the beach daily. The elevator was super helpful for groceries and luggage! We loved the view from the decks and the pool (we paid extra to have the pool heated which was well worth it!) We were a very short drive from Publix, Winn Dixie, and the giant surf store (definitely a must-see). Sombrero Beach was lovely! We only had 6 people staying at Grand Slam, but we were part of a group of 26 and everyone else’s houses were within a 2 minute walk from Grand Slam so it was very accessible! We didn’t use the kitchen much (we mostly cooked at the other houses) but it was beautiful and well-stocked! We would definitely stay here again and I highly reccomend this house! The host, Julie, was very easy to communicate with- and very helpful with answering all my questions quickly! :)

Location was great - short walk to beach close to Publix and activities especially when it was rainy and only in the 60s. Plenty of room for 7 to stay with a spare bedroom. Wished the 1st floor bedroom had a regular door instead of a louver door - we could hear voices of those who stayed up later.

This was the perfect property for our big family of adults. Everyone had space and room to get away as well as plenty of gathering areas. Easy walk to the beach, dock space for jumping on kayaks and the green underwater light allows for some really cool evening fish viewing. The house itself is very clean, well appointed and decorated nicely - appliances work well and plenty of servingware for a group - the elevator was a fun lifesaver when it came to getting bags and groceries upstairs- owner was very responsive to all of our questions - highly recommend!

Everything about our stay was AMAZING! Julie was incredible from the initial booking to checking out. She was very helpful and informative of local happenings for July 4th.
We have stayed in many houses in Marathon and this by far was the best! The location was perfect! We could walk to the beach, fish off the dock and meander through the waterways to get to the ocean and gulf!
My only complaint is we should have stayed longer!

For a family vacation with 7 adults and 2 children, this property was perfect. We had plenty of room for everyone. The home is beautifully decorated, was well stocked, and very clean. With the heat, the pool was a welcome break. The kids enjoyed the kayaks. This home is close to the beach, shopping, grocery stores, and plenty of restaurants. What a memorable vacation.

We thoroughly enjoyed our family stay at this very clean and beautifully decorated rental home. Close to a Sombrero beach and very convenient to grocery stores nearby. The elevator was a definite plus. We loved sitting in the pool overlooking the canal. It has great access to taking a boat out to explore the waters and dine out along the way. What a paradise that we were able to share. Thank you.

Very clean, great location (near Publix and the beach), excellent host that is easy to communicate with. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. We cooked most of our meals and the kitchen was well stocked. Running/biking path right outside. We rented a boat and the dock was perfect - great fishing not far off shore. Go to Irie Island Eats for the best food!
