We spent a week fishing and diving. The house was great and had all we needed. The outdoor space was fantastic. Boat docked right behind the house made life so easy. The only caution I would have is if your trailer is over 30 feet it can be a challenge to back it in. We would definitely stay again without hesitation!

Beautiful Bay

We loved the scenic views, the pool and the beautiful sunsets. There were a couple things that showed wear and tear but that’s expected in a rental. And the owner and manager were both very responsive to all communications. We would love to come back again!

Marathon Christmas

Our family got to spend Christmas in Marathon this year and this property didn’t disappoint. Incredible views from the balcony where we enjoyed coffee every morning and happy hour every evening! Property manager and owner was easily accessible for any questions which we had very few. Having a heated pool was definitely a plus and we enjoyed that. We will definitely be back!

The Best of Marathon

This house had it all! The pool overlooks a lagoon teaming with life. Sea turtles, manatees, blue parrot fish and pelicans. The pool stays shaded most of the day and the dock was just right for our 17’ Whaler but had room for a much bigger boat. It’s convenient to the boat ramp, about a mile away. The open floor plan was perfect for relaxing and beating the heat. We had a great time and definitely will stay again!

Overall excellent property that was exactly as advertised. Some minor maintenance issues could be addressed and cleaning could have been more thorough. Not sure pool heater actually worked. Would recommend to friends.

Mom and dads week away!

We came down for a week for relaxation. The house is great, comes with everything you need. Has all the basics including enough towels. The house is a twin house and I did not know that. The owner occasionally stays but I was told that side does not get rented and is rarely occupied. The owner was there for our week and was very nice and respectful of our privacy. We spent a lot of time in the pool and the tiki hut. The house could use some updating but it’s exactly what you get from the pictures.

Great place

We really enjoyed our stay here. The guys liked fishing from the dock. The pool was heated nicely. The kitchen has many appliances and cookware. The beach was about 8 minutes away by car. There are several stores, restaurants close by. The owner responded quickly to issues we had. The queen bed needs replaced. It was not very comfortable and it is noisy! A toilet paper holder with a spring bar in the first bathroom would be nice as the TP kept falling off. We did use the bikes and the kayak All in all, we would stay here again.

Great vacation rental, owners need to check with cleaning crew. (We don't believe they are doing their job) the house was not ready for us to check in. We checked in hour and half after our check in time.

Hi Bonnie, Thank you for taking time to review your stay. Sorry to hear about the late check-in. Not to make excuses but we are faced with the reality of a labor shortage in the Keys that's been a problem for all businesses the past year. Best regards, Joe & Mary

3rd visit! 💕 love it!

This is the 2nd time we have stayed in this home and the 3rd time we have stayed at one of this host’s properties. Very responsive host…good communication! Very clean! Nice warm pool! Cental location. Love the wildlife we see in the canal…turtles, manatees, tarpon, parrot fish, etc! We tried quite a few of the host’s recommended restaurants and were not disappointed by any of them! I Highly recommend the Grouper sandwich with mango chutney at Lazy Days South! YUMMY!!! It would help immensely if the light switches were labeled. There are so many and trying to figure out what switches worked which ceiling fanorlight was a bit confusing. Checkout time is 10 am, but the house cleaner showed up at 0830 and then waited in her car in the driveway until we left at 10am. A little awkward.😬

2 weeks in Paradise

We loved our stay here. House is roomy and well equipped. We cook all of our meals so the kitchen is a big item for us. We didn’t have to unpack any of the utensils we generally bring as the kitchen was so well equipped. Had more than what we needed. Brand new appliances, plenty of counter area. Washer and Dryer onsite was great. Bed was beyond comfortable. The outside was even better - sunset views are stunning from the deck, great having the Tiki hut. Ate there a number of times, all the gear needed to enjoy, bikes, kayak, fishing items. Spent 2 weeks watching the 2 manatees, sharks and dolphins, sea turtles right from the dock and could see them from the deck as well. Rented a boat and only 5 min to open Gulf. If location is everything then this place is perfection. Pool cleaned and maintained thru out our two weeks as well. Parking underneath was great too. We plan to be back for sure next year. We have stayed at Ocean Point, Florida Bay Club, Cozy Castaway over the past 4 years and this place was overwhelmingly the best.
