Perfect location!

We needed a quiet upscale place where we could relax, but get to the action quickly. This house was perfect for that! My husband, my sister, and myself truly enjoyed the layout of the house, the amazing pool, and even got a visit from the local manatee family! It was close to amazing restaurants and had the perfect kitchen for relaxing meals at home. Highly recommend!

Great time with friends

Property is great for a group of friends or family to spend time together. Pool was fantastic and being able to keep the boat on the bulkhead made for easy boat days, having ample parking for a trailer was a great bonus as well. Would definitely come back.

Great Location - great space for large family or friends

We stayed 2 weeks. First week couples(6 people) and 2nd week family (10 people) plenty of space for everyone . A lot to do right in the property. Pool was such a plus. My son brought a sailboat and that with the kayaks provided a lot of activities. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

This house was perfect for our extended family vacation! It was in a great location for fishing and close to all that Marathon has to offer. It has a lovely bait cooler and ice machine.

Family vacation

We had a total of 12 people from extended family there. There was enough room for everyone and the layout of the house works well for large groups. The location was great and we made use of the boat dock to rent a bit during our stay. Kitchen well stocked with everyday items and have baby items there too if needed. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great location

Location was great with direct ocean access. Pool was perfect for multiple adults and kids. It was especially nice that the pool gets shade from the house in the hot afternoon. The ice maker outside is a must have in the keys. It saves daily trips o the store to refill coolers. As a note to the owner, the fridge ice maker in the kitchen was broken and it is a pain to get ice downstairs every time. Also, need more silverware and basic utensils. We had to wash forks after every use. Overall a great house that can accommodate a few families.
