Fabulous location in the Florida Keys!

Great property on a dead end street in the beautiful community of Key Colony Beach ! Homeowner Luis was extremely helpful and communicative as we stayed at this property for an entire month . Beds very comfortable, all new appliances, and fantastic location to keep a boat on a very calm and well protected canal . They provided us with brand new magnifying mirror and light and 4 new cruising bicycles which were fantastic ! Highly recommend this property !!

Great Property

This home was the perfect getaway for our entire family! The heated pool was a fantastic bonus, giving the kids a place to swim when we weren’t at the beach, and we all enjoyed fishing on the canal. Its convenient location near everything you need in the Florida Keys made it an easy choice, and we’ll definitely be returning. Don’t hesitate to book this beautiful home – it’s fully equipped with everything you could need, and the owners were an absolute pleasure to work with!

Convenient but private

This is one of the best places to stay in Marathon. It's convenient to the grocery stores, and other areas, but is very private and comfortable. The dock names it nice for getting out to fish or dive, it's only a 10 minute cruise out to the open water. The check in and check out are easiest we've ever done, and the hosts have made sure everything you need is there from kitchen needs to extra towels for the beach or pool. Yes we will definitely stay here again. Thanks for a quiet home away from home to relax and unwind.

Keys Fun with manatee sighting almost daily!

This was my 1st stay in Key Colony Beach and the rental description was very accurate, very clean and very comfortable for a mature (not so young) couple. We had everything we needed in the house and more. The internet was great and my husband worked some remotely while I explored parks near by. The pool area is completed fenced in so my dogs could be out chasing lizards for fun while I enjoyed the pool and husband cooked on the gas grill. Since its located on a canal, we rented a boat for a few days and kept it right behind the rental in the canal. There were manatees visiting almost daily and I was able to give them a drink of fresh water from the fish cleaning station. The location was a little more than a stones throw from 2 good bar/eateries. I LOVE Sparky's smoked fish dip. The wind made it very pleasant for sitting outside by canal in morning and by pool in afternoon. I took a snorkling trip to Sombrero reef. It was great with calm seas and great visibility, Highly recommend. There are 2 paddle boards and I went out a couple of times but be aware it wasn't easy to launch and retrieve as there wasn't a leash on the boards. I rigged my own with a bungee cord and managed alone and Im in my late 50's so its doable. I also rode one of the bikes a few times and it was in good condition. The hosts communication was great as well! I look forward to returning next spring!

Great Vaca!!

Property owners were in contact the entire time which is a definite A+++ and answered any and all questions. Accommodations were great, private pool with ample pool towels, beds were amazing (best sleep in a long time), property located on canal, first day a family of manatees came for a visit. That in itself was amazing and made the trip. Convenient to Key West about 1.25hrs, restaurants and grocery stores close by, beaches about 6-10 drive. Oh and took the kayak out for a spin, really relaxing on the water. Will definitely be back. Thank you Luis and Ayise for sharing your part of paradise 🌴☀️🌴☀️🌴☀️

Piece of Paradise

This is truley a little piece of paradise! The house is very clean and well maintained. Beds are comfy, extra set of linens and Extra pillows. Fully stocked kitchen, everything you need for your stay. Having our own pool is such a bonus. We would spend our mornings exploring and our afternoons lounging by the pool. Alot of things to do in the area, from water sports, fishing, golf, mini golf, to name a few, never had to drive real far. A day trip to Key West is a must too!!! the drive is beautiful. The hosts Luis & Ayise are fabulous, they check in with you to see if there is anything you may need. The only bad thing was is that we had to leave.......We would definately stay here again when in the area.

The home is conveniently located in the Florida Keys. It was clean and as advertised. All the appliances worked fine plus there were bikes and paddle boards and some fishing equipment on the premises. The little pool was refreshing and heated. The shower in the second bedroom was not great. I have reported it to the owner and they assured me they would remedy the shower head.
