The property was excellent and the location was paradise! From fishing from the dock to swimming in the pool...sipping drinks on the deck and under the tiki hut was all amazing! This home was everything I could have dreamed of for our family vacation celebrating our son's 13th birthday!

Perfect location

Everything was as described in the listing. The location and the view were just perfect. Fishing right from the property and the pool were great. The area was quiet but there’s very easy access to the main road and many wonderful restaurants in Marathon. Pharmacies and grocery stores are nearby. Loved the screened porch. Had coffee out there every morning. Would definitely recommend this property!

Great house for a family getaway!

Very nice house. Comfortably fit 6 adults. It was nice being right on the water and the saltwater pool was great. Easy access to lots of restaurants and Sombrero Beach. Close enough to Key West for day trips. Greatly enjoyed our stay.

Property listed accurately and was very comfortable. The pool was warm, and the view was nice. The only suggestion we would include is that some accessories like beach chairs, a cooler, more beach towels and some hooks outside or a rack for wet clothes would be nice for those who enjoy the beach.

Thanksgiving week with family at this home was perfect! Location was excellent for fishing and close to stores. House had everything we needed. Only wished there was more utensils. Had plently of nice towels and pool towels and very comfortable beds. Tiki hut was great for our evening meals watching sunsets and morning coffee sunrises from our own backyard! Heated pool was a huge plus! Would stay again!

Didn't want to leave

Our family had such a great time at this property. It was our first time in the Keys. We couldn't get enough of the views. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking at home. The neighborhood was quiet and safe to walk our dog. The pool was always the perfect temperature. We enjoyed fishing off the dock every day. We loved Curly's Coffee around the corner for our morning coffee fix. If you have kids, the Turtle Hospital was a great time. Key West was just about an hour drive for a nice day trip. Must try Lick It BBQ about 13 miles North. We highly recommend this property and can't wait to come back!

Wonderful place to kick back and relax!

We came to celebrate our daughters college graduation and husbands retirement! It was everything we had hoped for. The house was spacious, clean, and updated. The beds were so comfortable! The pool was a must in the south Florida heat and the water views were stunning! There is a beautiful view from every window! We saw a manatee and sea turtle within reach of the sea wall. We will be back!

This property was perfect for my family. Excellent view of the ocean, and a nice pool to enjoy after coming back from a day of fishing. The gazebo was nice to enjoy the view while not cooking in the sun. Inside seemed new and clean. Would definitely visit here again.

2nd year staying

Everything is in working order at the house. Being completely honest, there is a moderate pigeon problem in the rafters outside the home, so much as the poop became a daily problem. Other than that...we love the view, plenty of towels...kitchen stocked well as we cooked every day. Would like to stay again...great location

Another Beautiful Stay

Had another wonderful stay in this beautiful home! House is beautifully decorated with everything you need. The water view is spectacular! The weather was extremely hot the week we were there and the pool was very refreshing. Other than the nesting pigeons under the home everything was perfect. Very close to shopping, restaurants and major Marathon attractions. Looking forward to next year already!

Our first time in Marathon. Great house, can’t beat the views! Location on the water is perfect. Spotted manatee next to the sea wall! Neighborhood is a little quirky, but on par with Keys vibe. Loved doing kayak tour through mangroves off Sombrero beach and visiting Crane Point. Island Fish Co had delicious key lime coladas and views of the water. Enjoyed bbq at Herbie’s and ice cream at Conch Custard. A great week!

Beautiful Sunrise and Sunset

The home and pool are very clean. Comfortable beds. Quiet location. Beautiful view. You can see the sunrise and sunset. Pool was not too hot or cold, just right. Home was furnished with everything we needed. Great kitchen. Very nice washer and dryer. Many things to do on Marathon, toured the Turtle Hospital, rented a pontoon. Great places to eat - Burdines Waterfront, Lazy Days South. Great drinks at Sunset Grill. Host was easy to contact and quickly answered our questions. Our entire group would return to this property again.
