Perfect spot in Marathon

The place was spotless, well stocked and very comfortable. It is a perfect location to go to Sombrero beach, go on snorkel trips and drive an hour for a day in Key West. Great restaurants are very convenient too. Our host, Ivette, was extremely nice and helpful. We would definitely come back.

We had such a great time at this beautiful place, that one week was not enough. Very clean, tastefully decorated, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, conveniently located to the grocery store, Sombrero beach and 7 mile bridge.

Clean, clean, cute and clean!

This property is one of the cleanest we’ve ever stayed at in Marathon! Close enough to everything to walk or bike, too. The big seaweed bloom from the ocean did clog up the canal but there’s not much to be done about that, it’s everywhere. Beds were very comfy and the place had everything we needed. Owner was great to work with.

Loved Marathon Key

We loved this condo. Very accessible to everything there is to do in area. Condo was the perfect spot. Nice quiet neighborhood. The checkin and out was fantastic. Ivette was great to work with. We ate all the local restaurants they were all good!! Loved sombrero beach for laying out and going to watch sunset. Key west is an 1 1/2 away for a day trip.

What a VRBO rental should be!

From the initial contact with the host through the arrival and stay at this property it was everything that a VRBO renter should expect consistently from a VRBO property. We could not have been more pleased with the accuracy of the pre-rental information provided nor could we have been any happier with the cleanliness and attention to detail of the property once we arrived. We would love to return to this gem in the Florida Keys.

A sweet spot near Sombrero Beach

This half duplex has been completely renovated inside and is beautiful. The location is great with a view of the ocean and is right on a canal that doesn't have houses on the other side. Always a lovely breeze. It's convenient to Sombrero beach and also to the grocery. We will be back next year.
