Thank you for coming to stay with us Sharlene. When I gave you a personal tour of the home I also gave you my personal cell phone # and asked you to please call me if you needed anything or had any questions or issues. I never received any call or text. Just as an FYI the new kitchen we put in has a Microwave that also has a convection oven feature too that works excellent. The guests that came in after you did mention the Dishwasher was not functioning immediately and my repair guy was there on that saturday. He said someone put laundry pods in the dishwasher instead of using the dishwasher packs under the sink that we provide. It was a 5 minute fix as the unit just needed to be reset.
We can't fix problems we don't know about is all I am saying, so it would of been nice to at least get the opportunity to try anyway. Both items that you mentioned would of been easily taken care of. We are glad your kids enjoyed the pool and we just added a ton of new features to the backyard that really bring it all together. Have a GREAT 2025!
The property was as described and perfect for our family. I agree with other postings that a ladder for use of the kayak would have been nice. But we had a great week and the house suites our needs.

Thank you for your response Tricia and yes we have been waiting 5 Months for the custom mounting bolts and just got word yesterday that they are in and the ladder " should " be installed next week. So keep an eye on our pic's and hope to have y'all back soon!
We had the best experience. The location was great! Very clean. The property manager answered any questions immediately. The dock in the back was very large, enough to fit a 40ft boat. If I had to state something negative it would be the limited space for a pantry. I would definitely stay there again!

Hey Frank thank you very much for the Kind remarks. Yes with over 50' of deep water protected dockage, instant Gulf access and quick Ocean access via Vaca Cut it makes it a favorite for our fisherman now that we have added a Tournament Fish Cleaning table and bait freezer. We also have order all new aluminum high end dock mounted piling bumpers to protect boats of all sizes. We have had some really nice vessels here this year and we want to make sure they feel perfectly comfortable with our dockage no matter what size vessel they have. Maybe an Ice Machine in the near future also :) Come back and see us anytime you guys where excellent guests!
Enjoyed the warm weather. Spent a lot of time relaxing in and by the pool. Although the pool was nice and warm the hot tub was a disappointment. The hot tub did not have high powered jets or hot water conditions. Nice sunsets on the channel.

Thank you for coming to hang out with us Syankowiak. Not sure if you remember or it was another member of your party that asked previously? but that is not a " Hot Tub " or is it advertised as one. it's just a comfortable area where you can sit and relax in the water with your refreshments. Thank you for the nice review and we wish you and your party an awesome 2025!
This little house had everything we needed - plenty of beds that were surprisingly comfortable, cable for the kids (disney), plenty of parking, a pool, and a boat slip on the water. The appliances all worked well and were used regularly. We would recommend putting an outlet and a light out by the dock, but we made do with an extension cord. The house was definitely clean and comfortable for our party of 6.

Thank you VERY MUCH for your kind thoughts Melissa. We will add the dock lights to our list of " Things To Do " we had just added all new Custom Dock Bumpers and Ladder for our Big Sport Fish guys as well as working on an Commercial Ice Machine that they requested also. Y'all were EXCELLENT guests and we hope to have you back again soon!
We stayed at the house for a week with our two kids, ages 8 and 6. The house was set up perfectly for a family and had everything we needed. The pool was great for younger kids (lots of sitting ledges). The neighborhood was quiet and easy to get to. The communication with the property manager was the best Ive ever had. There was a water main break while we were there and the property manager provided constant updates. Overall a wonderful stay and we would definitely visit again.

Thank you so much for your kind words Kaitlyn. Y'all make my job very easy! It was great to meet y'all and we hope to see you again next year!
This was a wonderful property for our time in the Keys. We were there for 9 days and I can't say how perfect it was for us. We are a family of two adults with two kids.
The place was beautiful and clean, and it had all the amenities. The pool was a great boon, especially when we weren't going to the beach. The kids had an immediate spot for swimming at all times. The property was easy to get to, simple for parking and access, just minutes for everything without being in the middle of the busy traffic areas. We had canal parking for our boat that was 2 minutes from the bay side of the island. Just perfect.
Guy, the manager, was very responsive when we had questions before and during our stay. Quick on communicating, and quick to solve a couple minor issues that came up.
Highly recommend this property and rental company!

Thank you for all your kind words Tom. Y'all make my job real easy as you all were EXCELLENT guests and welcome back anytime! Have an Excellent Summer and hope to catch y'all next time around.
Best Regards,
This was a well equipped small home in Marathon with a lovely backyard pool area and patio. Guy met us there, showed us around and was attentive to our needs. One thing to be aware of, this property is near the small airport and is directly underneath the flight path of the planes. Some days were quite busy, and it was pretty loud when you were outside. Great spot if you were to rent a boat. Not a whole lot to do on Marathon itself, and we drove to other locations most days. There is one kayak on the property, would be nice to have at least 2 available. Also is pretty difficult to get in and out of the kayak from the water behind the house itself, maybe a ladder or something would make it easier. As long as you are ok with the plane traffic, not a whole lot of activities nearby, this is a nice house.

Thank you for your Suggestions Jennie! The owner is VERY pro active in constantly improving the property and I just got the approval for a floating dock for the Kayak, a swim ladder, for easier access to the water at low tide. and upgrading the boat dock bumper system, which we are currently working on, Have a GREAT SUMMER!
Everything was great about this property!! Upon entering the home I couldn't believe how nice and clean the house was. It was SO MUCH BETTER than the pictures!! Guy, the owner, gave us so much useful information. While we were there new outdoor furniture was delivered. The man who set it up was very helpful in telling us about "hidden" places, not listed or known to tourists. My family of 5 fit comfortably in this home. We seen manatees, iguanas, and stingrays right from the personal dock. The private pool was huge. My family really enjoyed our stay here. When we come back to the Keys, we'll stay here if available. If not, we'll definitely stick with Guy's properties!! The only downside, which we knew before we booked, 1 bathroom; however, we made it work without any argument for an entire week, seeing as I do have 3 daughters(ages 11, 15, and 17).. This vacation rental was just way more than I ever expected!!

Pictures do not suggest a thousand words for this home-
Reviews from over a year ago where it was suggested that they get a ladder for the dock and maybe another kayak-
The response from the property manager from a year ago stated that they had approval to get that done, it was not. So I questioned that upon our arrival, the property manager stated that it the ladder was going to be put in on Monday; never showed up. Never spoken of again.
The hot tub, is not a hot tub. It’s actually colder than the pool. The AIRPORT is less than 2 miles from the property. You are right under the flight path for incoming and outgoing planes. The kitchen is outdated with no pantry space. The dishwasher is very old and had to be serviced while we were there and didn’t really work all that well. Not a lot of shade on the back patio. If you are looking for a house just to sleep and that’s it, this is the house for you. There’s a place to dock a boat, but few bumpers and no ladder
Not a great family place.
Good for a guy who has little to no expectations.

Good Morning Angie we are very sorry to hear that the home didn't meet your expectations :( You are correct about the pictures, as while they are nice they don't yet reflect the new tile job we just completed throughout the home before your arrival and the New Custom Dock Bumpers that we just installed, as we have many guests with very expensive vessels that stay with us and requested them. The plane comment isn't really accurate either while you are correct the home is fairly close to our private (not commercial, airport) we do live on an island that is only 7 miles long at best with the airport being in the middle of it, so I guess most homes would be considered close in that respect also, but this home is not in the flight path as you can only land a plane flying East or West at this airport and the home is located on the Northern Side of the island. When we spoke concerning the ladder, I was relaying information that the builder gave me. As I mention the Custom aluminum ladder had already been fabricated but he was still waiting on special anchors to mount it to the dock safely as they need to be over 6" long to got thru the pavers and into the concrete. Safety is our main goal and due to Covid all supplies are hard to get these days say nothing about custom orders. When you asked me about the jacuzzi I explained that it was part of the pool and told you that I would increase the temperature to whatever you wanted but the pool would end up being that same temp. You told me that you didn't want the pool that warm and said it was fine. On our initial walk thru, as we check in all our guests to get them comfortable with the home, one of the first things I explained was that we just finished the floor and the kitchen was being done next this fall and how excited we were. While small everything as far as supplies in our kitchen are all less then a year old in as the owner is particular about that also.
The owner works very hard on always making improvements on his home and has always left the rent considerably lower then other similar properties as he has always wanted people that were on a tight budget to be able to enjoy the Fabulous Florida Keys and all they have to offer. Again we are sorry that you felt that our accommodations didn't meet your expectations and hope that you have a GREAT SUMMER! Best Regards
