Wonderful!
Perfect home base to enjoy the beautiful Florida Keys! We divided our time between exploring Marathon and relaxing poolside. The owners have made this home a private resort-style destination unmatched by any other place we stayed. Already looking forward to another visit!

Wonderful stay and property!
We much enjoyed our week at the Dragonfly Lite. The communication from the owner and property manager is excellent, timely, fast. The home is nicely decorated and very clean. The pool and the entire backyard is visually very pleasant, comfortable, clean, and perfect for a family. We loved the privacy fence that the property provided. You won’t be disappointed staying here!

Absolutely wonderful!
We loved staying at the Dragonfly Lite! It was so clean and well kept! The backyard and pool were a true oasis and so beautiful and relaxing! We loved everything about staying here! Jerry met us and showed us around the property and talked with us about things to do in the area and made sure we knew we could call at anytime if needed. We absolutely will stay here if we are able to come back! Thank you, Jerry!

Backyard paradise
Perfect yard to relax. Sitting areas, grilling area beautiful swimming pool and fresh bananas. House was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was small but functional. Close to restaurants, mini golf, sunset cruise and the old 7mi. bridge thats perfect for walking, keep an eye on the water we saw sea turtles and stingrays. The sun sets right across the street. It was very quiet during our stay

Enjoyed the Keys Outdoors
We had a great time at the Dragonfly Lite! The outdoor area and pool were exceptional! We really enjoyed use of the outdoor shower, as well! The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. Jerry was incredibly helpful leading up to and during the stay, as was Barbie, our property manager.

Dragonfly Lite, week in paradise
Everything here was perfect. Property manager, Barbie met us at house to orient us to everything. She did a great job, and I felt comfortable contacting her for needs, but we had none. Very clean inside and out. Beach chairs and umbrella provided as well as beach towels. Kitchen had everything needed if you want to cook. Close to many excellent restaurants. And the pool...so beautiful and relaxing, very private. Great location to explore the Keys if you can tear yourslef away from the pool. Property owner also communicated frequently with suggestions for fishing tours, activities, etc. We would not hesitate to recommend this property and hope to return soon.

Great stay even with a Hurricane!!
This place is a hideaway with the way the owners have it set up! When you walk through the gate your private paradise. Even before and after the storm the owner and caretaker was checking on us making sure everything was a great experience! I have stayed a lot in the "Keys" and this has been my favorite !!!

Our best trip to the keys yet
Dragonfly Lite exceeded our expectations! We have always stayed in resorts but decided to try something different this year and we were so happy. The pool was amazing and the house felt like home. The neighborhood was quiet and in the best spot in Marathon in my opinion.

Excellent stay
Our family with young children enjoyed staying at Dragonfly Lite. It was so comfortable and well stocked with supplies. Our kids loved the pool so much. We brought our boat with and used the marina at the end of the street. We barely used our boat because the outdoor patio/pool of the house was so relaxing. Thank you for letting us make some amazing memories at your house! We can’t wait to come back soon :)

We had a great time. The house has everything we hoped for and more! The back yard is a mini oasis, you have a welcoming suprise around every corner. We were also conveniently located to all the fun things we had planned for the week. We had a fantastic time. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

So happy!
This property was everything I hoped for, and more. The location was close to restaurants and beaches. It was so well stocked, and convenient. Our family of 4 adults had a great time in the pool, and we found our needs were met with ith the laundry room, and so many outside spaces. Excellent! Very caring owner and realtor too.

Best vacation we have had! The house is cozy and the pool area is amazing!
The house was so clean and cozy! Everything you would need is there! The yard and pool is so relaxing and the landscaping is beautiful! You can tell the minute you open the gate that the owners take pride and love it! The beachy colors and comfy outdoor furniture will make you not want to leave!! The house is super clean....beds are very comfortable....and the linens are very soft and comfortable! We plan on making this a yearly summer trip and making dragonfly lite our home away from home!

Hidden Marathon Gem!
This little hideaway was perfect for my family. It’s right off of US 1 but with it being tucked away with fence & trees, you would never know! The house is cozy and they have made a great use of space. I primarily booked it for pool and cabana because my kids loved to swim daily! Breakfast or dinner under the patio was fantastic. Great Marathon location, close to all our favorites (Turtle Hospital, Keys Fisheries, the Stuffed Pig, Publix) Jerry (the host) was a great communicator Before we checked out, I booked for next July!
