Property is in a perfect location - however had issues with having hot water, issues with the fridge/freezer not being cold- and the kitchen could use some help with stocked items (cookware etc) as well as towels for the home- only found 6 towels for pool and that left towels for showering very slim.

Nice house. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. Though some baths needed shelves for makeup and shaving gear. The kitchen had high end appliances, but the Viking freezer couldn't keep ice cream cold.

Great stay in Marathon!

This house is large, clean, has a great pool and great location. Literal 3 minutes walk to Sombrero Beach. 5 minute car ride to Publix or Winn Dixie supermarkets. A/C worked extremely well, even when temps and humidity were both in the 80s. Great communication with owner Andy. Large gourmet kitchen with high end appliances (we didn't really though). Would definitely stay again. Highly recommended!

Superb Location and Property

Stayed with my wife, two young kids, and two extended family members. The property was beautiful and while close to the beach, quiet. We saw manatees in the canal, with one coming directly up to the dock. Unfortunately a rare cold snap occurred while visiting and only could use pool a couple days, though enjoyable and well-maintained for use. Highly recommend the property.

The home is beautiful and was just right for our family ages 15-80. Close to the beach, close to town (marathon) and off the main thorough fare so quiet and peaceful. Easy stroll to watch the sunset each night. Thank you and would certainly stay again if in the Keys.

Spring Break from Minnesota

Fantastic stay. The property is about 300 feet from Sombero Beach, but far enough down the site street that it's private. Beautiful outdoors and back yard, with a deck running the length of the main floor, and balconies in two of the upstairs berooms overlooking the back yard, pool and dock. Very clean, very well maintained - REALLY nice kitchen appliances. There was plenty of room and everything was clean and well stocked. The neighborhood is about 2 miles off US-1 and houses are very well maintained and landscaped, but you're close enough to the highway that a Publix, Winn-Dixie, CVS, and other stores are less than 5 minutes away. We enjoyed walking out to dock every day. We rented kayaks and paddleboards and the kids (teens) enjoyed kayaking from the dock around to Sister Creek and Boot Key. The dock is 3-4 feet above the water line, the kids were nimble enough to climb down the ladder and sit into the kayak. Marathon Key is a great spot to be in the central Keys, everything is about an hour away in either direction. We went to Key West, visited the Turtle Hospital, went snorkeling, Bahai Honda state park, and lots of spots on Marathon. Owner Andy was super responsive, answering questions and ensuring a good experience. Great stay, definitely coming back!

Nice House

we enjoyed our stay in Marathon at this property. it is a nice layout with plenty of room and is especially well located with a short one block walk to Sombrero Beach. the owner was very easy to communicate with and was very cooperative and attentive to requests. the home is starting to show some age, however, and could use a bit more maintenance and some updating at this price point.

This is a beautiful property in an ideal location. The property manager was available and responsive. The pool was perfect for the age group we had with us; the accessibility to the canal was a plus, especially when a manatee visited us, and the beach was close and beautiful. Our family had a wonderful time.
