Summer vacation 2019
Condo was great. Property manager was very friendly, helpful. Grounds /pool were very nice. Had loud neighbors late at night but can't help that. Worse part was the seaweed, very bad smell so that you couldn't enjoy sitting on patio along with the property owners 2-3 doors down the beach were raking it up every day making the smell unbearable because it was wet....

“Homey” vs Lack of cleanliness and routine upkeep
Not good. The property does not have elevator access; beware—nowhere was that advertised. So many rules; notes all over the place (unit 14). Non working ceiling fan in living room with a strict rule of A/C not being set below 72.; the unit was extremely warm. The unit was dirty and had water damaged bathroom cabinets that were falling apart. They tell you the stains in the tub are a chemical reaction. If that he the case—why aren’t all of the condos in the Keys experiencing this? The tub was old and it needed resurfaced or replaced—and CLEANED properly. When contacting the Manager after leaving—being there only 24 hours—they did provide a partial refund for the week we booked. They will respond with its “homey” not a resort. A home should be clean; this was not. They allot each person one towel, one washcloth, and one towel for the entire week (they do disclose that in the long list of rules and contract they ask you to sign). If you use more—you will be charged a fee. They do have a coin-op ..but we found that to be a very cheap way of taking care of your guests; more towels is such a simple, inexpensive thing to provide. The site won’t allow us to upload our photos for proof. We cannot recommend this place. Remember—“homey equals NOT cleaned or maintained”-they will respond otherwise. Don’t buy it. Thank you

The location was wonderful. We had a lovely view of the ocean and pool. It is an older building and so that comes with a few small issues, but it was very cute and cozy.

We loved our stay at this property. The beach was great and not crowded. We loved spending time at the pool There are so many other beaches you can visit close by. So many great restaurants super close by. The condo was clean and comfortable with comfy beds. Great view from the balcony. We would definitely stay here again. by

Vacation
This place is in a wonderful location. The best beach we saw while visiting Marathon was right outside our door and with the pool right there it was a win-win. The unit had everything we needed for a weeks stay. Everything in the unit and on the proper was clean and neat. Very well kept. If we were to return to Marathon again, we would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay
This was a great place to stay in Marathon. Great views of the pool and ocean. Our boat rental, Cocos Boat Rental was right up the street, very close to the condo. Megan was outstanding and was very responsive to our needs especially when we locked our keys in the condo. We really enjoyed our stay and will go back next year! Highly recommend staying here!

Perfect Thanksgiving getaway
This condo was perfect. It was just like the photos, everything you need in the kitchen. I love the neighborhood, I went walking several mornings while my husband was diving. The pool was clean and there were sanitizing stations due to the pandemic. Everyone was friendly, but socially distancing. My husband loved the beach area where he finished in the afternoon. I could not be more pleased with our week here. I would recommend to both families and couples.

Amazing little piece of paradise
We booked this place literally last minute after we had driven from Massachusetts to Daytona for 4 nights. Then decided to drive to the Keys for a leg of our road trip trip. We were celebrating my 42nd bday & 2nd year anniversary of my 4 year olds successful 3rd & last open heart surgery. First the price was in our budget and couldn’t believe it was literally on a beach with a pool, which was one of my children’s request. The little condo was just perfect for our little family! Great to have a kitchen, a screened in porch that faced the pool but we could still see the ocean. There was 1 bedroom but we cosleep w our children so this worked lovely for us. We could also see the ocean from the bedroom and we often shut off the ac and left the window open to get the ocean breeze & get lulled to sleep by the calming sounds of the ocean waves. We all slept like babies, waking up to the best sunrise right from our balcony! This place was immaculate (having a child w half a heart this was priority!) There were plenty of towels to use, enough pillows, blankets & kitchen was well stocked w essentials. We eat mostly raw so didn’t need to much but we did cook a couple of meals & had all we needed. We had an issue with the tv but after speaking to Rhonda, who wasn’t only very pleasurable to speak w & kind but she had Kevin come try to fix it very quickly! It was not a big deal because who really needs a tv when you are in paradise and we limit our children’s viewing anyway but they both went out of their way to rectify the problem anyway. The pool was heated so my children loved that. I can’t say enough great things about our stay. It just absolutely perfect! We really felt like it was our own little home an we even extended our stay for a couple of extar days. The whole booking process was made simple by Rhonda even though I booked the night before checking in. The pictures on site do no justice to this place. Its much lovelier than the pictures protrayed! We loved staying in Marathon! The only word that keeps coming to mind is paradise, paradise, paradise! This simple, most importantly clean and it was on the best location,absolutely perfect for a family on a budget who’s idea of a 5 star place is just looking out your balcony and seeing all the natural beauty we were surrounded by! Thank you Megan & Kevin for you hospitality & making this our home away from home! Oh Kevin don’t forget Paul is waiting for you to resign! Lol! Cant wait to return! Blessings!

Wonderful place!
My husband and I had a fantastic time at Royal Plum. We stayed in condo #14. It was very clean and up to date. It had everything we needed. The staff, Meghan and Kevin were very pleasant. We met many people who have been coming to Royal Plum for many years. We now know why - it is a wonderful place. We can't wait to come back next year.

Grounds are beautiful and well maintained outside.
The Royal Plum is a very beautiful complex. The grounds are very well maintained. Is just a beautiful place. Our unit this time was a little dated and not well cared for. But it was ok. We don’t spend much time inside anyway. A few of our favorite restaurants were closed for vacation but we ventured out and found new ones. Sparkys Landing is an all time favorite as well as Franks and Burdines. Grands and Burdines were closed but we found the overseas bar and grill....amazing and no name bar and grill.....both very good. We will definitely be back in the Spring.
