Location is amazing!
We showed up with our family having never been to Marathon. The location is absolutely perfect. The house has an upper loft perfect for two or more kids - it was like their own apartment. Two bedrooms for the adults on the main level. We enjoyed the sunroom for breakfast and the view of the sailboats. We had a rental car so it was an easy drive down street to the beach and to the two grocery stores. Also Marathon is centrally located to go do sightseeing and many restaurants.
