April graciously let us tour an empty property for our next stay. Sara and Chef were attentive at the pool bar and very easy to talk to. The property is top shelf and all of the employees are even better. We can’t wait to return!

Brought them back to the fish cleaning tables at Marlin bay and cleaned them. The next night we took them to the Tiki Bar down the road and had them prepared. We enjoyed the pool and game area everyday, in between site seeing and fishing. Our week went by very quickly . We had 4 adults and 2 children with us and there was plenty of room ..

Luxury resort in Marathon

The house and the resort are spotless. The house is very nicely decorated and furnished. The resort, marina, club house and pool area are very well taken care of. The area is quiet and the staff are responsive and pleasant. The only downside is that the neighborhood is industrial and you need a car to get anywhere.

It's situated in a beautifully maintained resort environment around a large pool with bar services. The house is quite large and very well outfitted, with large comfortable rooms, a well stocked kitchen, and is very modern and clean in feel. It exceeded our expectations!
