Gorgeous Property -- Lots of room for large family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of 7 had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Marlin Bay. The amenities and staff were welcoming and enjoyable. Our residence was very clean upon arrival and plenty of space! We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and being able to use the Clubhouse to play pool on rainy days. We also loved that we could checkout board games to play as a family in our house. The sunset tower was under construction when we arrived, which was a bummer, but we had beautiful views from our the balconies on our house. My only concerns were the master bathroom shower area had what appeared to be mold on the top part of wall and ceiling. Might want to have that remedied! Additionally, the uppermost balcony had some woodrot that we noticed from the exterior. Not sure if it was structural in nature but would have liked to have been given a heads up to ensure it was safe.Finally, while the resort itself was gorgeous, the general area was not very walkable and more of an industrial district than I would have hoped.

Amazing days with beautiful Sunsets

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It’s was great to stay there , Greg it’s very professional and along with the others that works there makes everything easier .The only thing that need to addressed it’s to put dark curtains behind the blinds so we can really rest a good sleep until 10:00am, there’s no curtains at all and once the sun comes out at 6:10am it’s impossible to sleep anymore. Once you guys add those we will coming back there or four times a year , the place it’s awesome Other than that the experience it’s unforgettable.....

Perfect Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The resort had everything a family needs. Pool side entertainment, vacation drinks available pool side from 1pm to 7pm, and a fully stocked kitchen (for cooking utensils, not stocked with food). Many other amenities. We stayed for 12 days, and it was perfect. The only thing, which is out of their control was the ability to have frequent cleanings of the space. When on vacation, housework is not fun. ;). But you will find that problem at hotels around the country. We will be back. The property team was amazing, and always helpful. During spring break I arrived at the airport to find my rental car was not available. I had to hire a ride to take me to marathon, and concierge at the resort was able to act faster on finding me a ride once I arrived, than my own personal travel agent. 5 stars!

Treasure in heart of Marathon

This is a superb rental. Excellent value. The townhouse is spacious high quality. The pool is gorgeous. Added bonus the marina dock provides stunning sunset views. The property owner has strict policies holding limit on visitors which is greatly appreciated especially during COVID. The pool is fantastic. The property is walking distance to best in the keys dining and a full service marina for fishing and boat rides. I can’t say enough great things about the staff. Wonderful group. Marlin Bay is a treasurer in the heart of Marathon.
