We had a great time at Marlin House! I have stayed at several vacation rentals and the kitchen was probably the best stocked with plenty of dishes, pans, bowls, and utensils. The sunset views were great and the ease of getting our boat in and out was great. Our family loved the huge pool! Oh and the beds were comfortable as well!
