Step outside and you’ll find your own backyard paradise! Lounge by the screened-in pool, catch the game on the outdoor TV, or clean up your fresh catch at the fish-cleaning station. The dock has water, power, a bait freezer, and even a commercial ice maker for your next fishing trip.

Wonderful Stay!

This property was perfect for our family (3 sets of adults and 2 toddlers age 3). It was very clean and the property manager was quick to respond. Check-in was seamless and they gave clear instructions on check out. There was plenty of space in the house for everyone. The location itself was really great, super close to Sombrero Beach as well as grocery stores.

Family Holiday Fishbowl Paradise!

This wonderful property worked so well for our families to get together for Christmas. We rented a boat for part of our stay and the dock and fish-cleaning table worked so well for the fishermen in the family. We all enjoyed the pool and beautiful outdoor space. We cooked and enjoyed some great meals while here. The Fishbowl is a great place to stay! Any minor issues we had (dishwasher) were addressed immediately by Island Breeze Realty. 5 stars all around!

We enjoyed the hot tub and pool. In addition, the dock was great with many manatee sightings and a place to dock the rented boat. The no-see-ums were really bad for some of us in our party. It depends on how allergic you are. The hot tub and pool setup would be easier to navigate with instructions. We talked with the pool guy and he helped us with some of the operation tips. The floors could have been cleaner with quite a bit of animal hair. It was helpful having a broom and vacuum to do some cleaning. The beach and park are really great.Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful, clean, comfortable home away from home!

This was our first time booking this home and we will definitely be returning every time we go back to the Keys! The home is beautiful, clean, and very spacious. We were able to comfortably accommodate multiple families, the location was perfect for going out to dinner locally and enjoying the sunset "Keys style," and the kids had plenty of entertainment when we were relaxing at home between the pool, the spa, fishing off the dock, and the beach around the corner. Also, Publix is 5 minutes away which is hard to find in the Keys and was definitely a necessity for our crew! The proximity to Key West is perfect for a day trip or even just for the sunset and a dinner. We traveled in June which felt like the perfect time of year to enjoy EVERYTHING the Keys and Key West had to offer. Definitely going back to this house!

Great Family Vacation House

The Fishbowl was perfect for our annual family vacation of 10 adults and 2 children. It was located in a very nice residential neighborhood. The house had a very open floor plan that made it easy to spread out but still be together. We spent the majority of our time on the screened in back porch/pool. We used the fire pit and grill a couple nights and played games in the yard. We used the pool and hot tub everyday. We rented a 25' pontoon from Marathon Pontoon Rentals and our son had his 18' boat and their was plenty of room on the dock. We loved that it was so close to Sombrero Beach as well as the grocery store and other activities in Marathon. Everyone agreed that we would like to return next summer.

AMAZING, DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS HOME!

WOW and INCREDIBLE are the best words to describe this entire experience. The location of the home is 2nd to none, the privacy, setting, and overall welcoming feel made us right at home immediately. Plenty of space for 2 families and our dogs, the screened in patio allowed us to enjoy the whole week outside without any bug interruption. Loved the added TV outside to watch poolside movies and listen to music, the kids (9,9 and 16) loved the dock space to fish and just enjoy the outdoor life without electronics. We couldn't be happier with our choice and look forward to booking again for 2024. Only 1 request would be to send the code maybe a little sooner than 4pm exactly, but that's only because our trip got us to the home by about 330pm. Other than that, the home was clean, bright, airy, and completed with STUNNING views and setting. Thank you again for welcoming us, it was our pleasure.

Great spot for a boating vacation

We wanted a rental house in the keys that we could have a boat onsite for the week. This place is perfect for that. Relatively close to open water and the dock is protected from the prevailing winds. We rented a 25' center console from Vacation Boat Rentals nearby and it worked great. We were able to head out to snorkel, fish and cruise right from our dock. The other primary selling feature of this home is the outdoor living. We watched movies outside each evening and had meals on the screened porch. The only drawback for me was the "rental" feel of the home. It was all un personal, the dishes, silverware, pans etc. were all cheap and miss-matched. Everything was sufficient but clearly the cheapest option available. This house does the big things extremely well. Location, layout, outdoor living, and dock are awesome. The little things such as furnishing could be better, but all in all, I would stay here again.

Fantastic house and location in Marathon.

We had a great experience renting this property. The layout of the house worked perfectly for our family with the separate bedroom/bathroom/living room/wet bar that was added on the side of the house. The outdoor living space and pool area were like no other. We were able to control the temperatures of the pool and hot tub easily which was really important to us. Overall the house was really great, especially the outdoor living area (where we spent most of our time) and the location was convenient for walks to Sombrero Beach and day trips to Key West and Islamorada. Any questions we had prior to and during our stay were promptly answered and it was evident our satisfaction was important. We would definitely recommend booking this property and hope to stay there again in the future.
