Katie was very responsive and answered any questions that I had. We had a great time, house was very clean and comfortable. We paid the extra to have the pool heated and was worth it to us. I liked that they provided extras like enough trash bags, dish soap, sponge, coffee filters, paper towel, TP and even had salt and pepper. The location was just off US1 and we even spotted a manatee in the Chanel.I would not hesitate staying here again.

The layout was great and there was ample room. The home was very clean and parking was easy. The beds were comfortable. The location is great. The cost for pool heat was very expensive, and the place was short on some amenities we expected (towel racks, coffee filters, salt). The place is for sale and we are guessing the owner is not investing any more into the property. Overall we were satisfied.

Wonderful stay in Marathon

We had a fantastic experience staying at this home in Marathon, Florida. The house was spotless upon arrival — very clean and well-maintained, which immediately made us feel comfortable and welcome. Communication with the host was excellent throughout the entire process. They were responsive, helpful, and made check-in and check-out smooth and easy.The location was perfect to Sombrero Beach, which made beach days super convenient. The neighborhood felt safe and peaceful, ideal for a relaxing vacation in the Keys.We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone looking to enjoy Marathon!

Perfect week!

We've stayed at a few VRBO residences in Marathon and this was by far my favorite! The residence was very clean and equipped with everything we could have possibly needed and more! The location is super convenient to many restaurants and grocery stores which makes it easy for a quick run to get supplies. The home is in an ideal location for those with a boat, a quick ride out of the neighborhood and you're ready to fish or enjoy the local restaurants.I reached out to the property manager a couple of times prior to our arrival and once during our stay with a question and she was always very responsive and helpful!I'd highly recommend this residence for those looking to enjoy a vacation in Marathon!

We had a great time, Katie our contact was great in communicating throughout the purchasing, check in, and check out process. The villa was perfect our group which was clean and modern, with super high quality linen and bedding. The villa was only mile from sombero beach and within an hour to Key West.

Excellent choice!

We loved this house and the agent( Katie ) was very personable, efficient and friendly with our requests. This house was immaculate, comfortable, and in the best ,ovation in Marathon for biking, walking to everything like grocery store and bank, and best of all a short bike ride to Sombrero Beach. We would definitely rent again here. Pool was a nice extra and you can fish directly from dock in rear of home.

Beautiful house in a great location

First, this is a really nice house with nice furnishings and in a great location. You can ride bikes (or walk) to the beach or up to stores. The linens, pillows, and kitchenware definitely need an upgrade. Had not received information on how to access the property by 6:00 p.m. on the day of arrival - we were arriving late. Messaged the manager, and she did respond with the info, but this should have done earlier without me having to ask. She also asked at that time if I wanted the pool heated. I had already paid for this several weeks prior. She admitted that it had not been done but would get it heated. Still not heated on the 2nd day, but finally heated on the 3rd day. Did offer to refund $45 for it not being done. Cold front hit Florida while we were there. Heat in the house did not work. Had no heat for 2 days. Was fixed the day before we left. The grill did not work. Had to ask a neighbor to use theirs so we could cook, as it was a holiday and restaurants were closed. Embarassing. This was fixed the day before we left. In my opinion, these are all items that should have been checked prior to our arrival. The pool is nice and they did have beach chairs etc. that you could use. Did see a manatee several times in the canal behind the house, which was awesome.

Close to everything

Property was in a great location near restaurants and small beach area. Furniture was nice and newer looking however each room could use a TV not a huge deal. Had some hairs left on the pillows and sheets which I just washed myself once arriving. Dishes , pots, pans ,and silverware there was plenty for a large family to use but bring your own dish soap and detergent they only supply a small sample size and when staying a week that goes fast. Dock was nice got to see the manatees in the afternoon and pool was a good size for a dip after a hot day but the grass was super high and unkempt. Overall the property was nice and we would come back.
