Best Vacation

We spent 2 weeks at Harbor Hideaway and had the best vacation. The property grounds, Tiki hut, pool & views are incredible. The house was perfect and immaculately clean. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking and dishware needed, which for us is very important as we like to cook in a lot. Larry was always available and helpfull. He responded to any emails I sent within minutes. We have been using VRBO for years and this is one of the best house we have ever rented.

Fantastic home

We had a great visit at this beautiful property. Everything has been thought through, from design to decor to supplies. The ice maker is AMAZING and kept us as cool as could be in the middle of summer. We saw a manatee mom and baby off the dock and swam in the pool every day. Highly recommend!

Beautiful and relaxing

We throughly enjoyed our stay. It is a beautiful home and very well appointed. The kitchen is fully stocked for any type of cooking you wish to do. The tiki bar and pool area are amazing. We spent a great deal of time swimming and enjoying the patio area. The evening breeze was also great. Our hosts were very nice and extremely helpful. While there we saw manatees, eagle Spottted ray, jellyfish and a nurse shark-all from the dock. We kayaked and also rented their boat. Truly a wonderful experience and hope to come back again. Our little miss Kali also enjoyed being there. Thank you for such a wonderful home.

Outstanding vacation property in Marathon

My wife and I were looking for a place to stay in Marathon just to get away from work and have a quiet week together. This place checked all the boxes for us – very clean, well maintained, exceptionally well outfitted from the kitchen all the way down to outside toys – bikes, fishing rods, etc. The pool and tiki bar area were fantastic, and we spent a good deal of our time lounging outside and enjoying them. This place did not disappoint and we will be returning in the very near future.

We had a wonderful stay. The home is beautiful and has a great layout for one family or more than one family. You can stay at home and enjoy the pool and outdoor space or the location is near many activities and restaurants. The Ubinas family has literally thought of everything, and communication with Larry and John has been great. We highly recommend staying at this beautiful home!

The house was perfect for our family vacation. The location was close to everything. Our kids never left the pool. Fishing right off the dock! Manatees, fish, Morey eels and nurse sharks visible from the dock. We took the kayaks out into the mangroves. 10/10! Will definitely be staying again.

Hands down, Fantastic place!

Fantastic Place! I can't say enough great things about our stay. Communication was on point from booking all the way til check out. The house has all the amentities you can ask for. Everything from the cleanliness of the property to high quality linens it was nothing less than perfection. The layout of the house is very open and roomy and in the kitchen you can't ask for more. Nice to stay at a house with a lot of starter items for the kitchen, laundry, and baths. Lots of towels, blankets, games, trash cans, and even cleaning products! The pool was clean, warm, and a great size. Kayaks were great quality and easy to get in and out of the water. The tiki bar was a great spot to make a drink or get a little shade. We can't wait to come back!!

Another wonderful week in the keys

Larry and Eileen’s property Harbor Hideway was absolutely perfect. They have every amenity you could ask for right down to the bottle of champagne in the refrigerator when you arrive. The property is immaculate and very comfortable. Of all the properties we have stayed in over the years theirs is truly one of the best. They were wonderful hosts and provided plenty of recommendations for places to eat. We also like to cook a lot and the kitchen had everything you could want including a rice cooker and pressure cooker. The one issue we had while staying at the property ( and it wasn’t really an issue for us). Is the pool heater had problems because of a pipe leak but Larry took care of it the same day and we didn’t miss a minute in the pool. I can’t wait to book our stay again next year!

Best VRBO rental

I have stayed in many rental houses throughout The Keys and this house was without a doubt the best VRBO we have ever stayed in! The house was absolutely beautiful, better than the pictures! The host had the house fully stocked with anything we needed from pots/pans to spare toothbrushes. If you have a boat this is the perfect location! The host was so helpful and checked in while we were there to see if there was anything we needed. I HIGHLY recommend this house and we will definitely be staying here next time we visit Marathon!

Perfect house

Our family of 5, with two kids under 7, were thrilled to spend a week in Larry and Eileen’s beautiful home. The house is clean and very well-stocked with everything you’d need. The pool was so fun, and provided hours of entertainment. We saw lots of fish and even a manatee stopped by… right there in the canal off the dock! The location is top notch, and within walking distance to restaurants and the grocery store. The owners were awesome with check-ins. We can’t wait to be back. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Perfect in Paradise!

We have been traveling to The Keys for the last 30 years. This home was by FAR the best home EVER. We booked this home for the dock space as it can easily accommodate our 2 boats. But, what we didn't expect is how wonderful everything else was. Actually the property is better than the pictures. Everything was first class from the magnificent pool, tiki hut, luxurious towels down to the kitchen utensils. Honestly, nothing was missing. Larry was on top of everything and always available. Eileen was the icing on the cake. Didn't want to leave this home and can't WAIT to go back!
