Amazing Stay

The property was clean and even better than described. My kids loved fishing off the dock and walking a short distance to the beach. Cabana Club access was easy and a nice break from the ocean. The location was great and found lots to do near by. Check in/out process was easy.

Smooth check-in, clean, up to date home. Conveniently located in Marathon. This home provided quite a bit of space to spread out comfortably We Loved the screened in porch.

Wonderful Keys Trip!

Everything was perfect! There was plenty of space for all 7 of us. The kids enjoyed fishing off the dock, while we relaxed under the shade of the tiki. The location is very convenient; it’s close to the boat ramp, waterways are wide, home is close to the Cabana Club pool, Publix, souvenir shops, restaurants and even a Tesla charger!!! The home was super clean and stocked with everything we needed for our week stay. We were very sad to leave, but will definitely be back!!!
