NICE POOL & HOT TUB

Overall this was an amazing place to stay and literally 3 min walk to sombrero beach The big pool and hot tub were amazing however the hot tub heat would never stay on and had to push button and wait for it to reheat all the time The beautiful hanging outdoor lights o ly 1/10 of the lightbulbs lit up and there was glass cracking g along pool and some found in water. so be careful with kids.The guest bedroom bathroom smelled of sewage. Never figured that out. The grill was amazing and brand new condition. The kitchen an amenities amazing. Washer Drywr knew and worked great.

Very nice house, but a few challenges.

Truly a gorgeous home with wonderful amenities and all the supplies you would need. The two primary bedroom suites are fantastic. Plenty of space inside the home, oodles of space outside. So many wonderful activities and supplies free to use… kayaks, fishing equipment, bikes, cornhole, etc. Our only issues: we paid full price to have this home over the Christmas holiday. What drew us in was imagining our family in the pool or hot tub, watching NFL football on Christmas instead of being indoors like we would be in Michigan. Reality: the pool and hot tub heat were both non-working and required a maintenance visit, which property mgmt helped arrange right away. However, the pool took nearly 3 days to warm up after that. The outdoor tv was broken the entire time, no picture. Again, maintenance visit, but nothing to be done over the week of Christmas.

Incredible home that needs maintenance

This home clearly has had some major investment put into it. Brand name appliances, Koehler Bathroom, wi-fi access points and Sonos Speakers system throughout the house. The picture provide a very accurate depiction of what you will experience. With all that said, this was one of our worst vacation rental experience, solely a result of Vacasa Rental Management company. This house needs a lot of maintenance. Unfortunately, I am restricted here with the amount of characters that one can used, so I am not at liberty to share our poor experience with Vacasa. Before you rent this property or any property managed by Vacasa do some extra homework. I would encourage you to do some research on Vacasa and you will get a clear picture of why there is poor maintenance and poor communication from their team.

Marathon getaway

Great property! Great location! The house was perfect for our family getaway. We spent time at the beach (short walk from house), swam in the pool, kayaked in the channels, played games outside in the spacious yard. Fantastic vacation!

great vacation house

We had a great week, house was more than what we expected. It had just about everything we needed, except for the kitchen, NO spices but a salt &pepper shaker. Couldn't believe how nicely landscaped and decorated it was. We had a little hicup ,the water cooler was empty and the Vasaca people took a couple of days to replenish the water,other than that EXCELLENT !

Great house and pool. Had everything we needed, close to the grocery store and beach, even had little amenities in the bathroom. Dock plenty big to park your boat. Great location, would definitely recommend and come back. Thank you!

Great family get-away

The kids spent hours in the pools and the adults had plenty of options for outdoor lounging. Bedrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable. Great location near the beach and stores. Very nice kitchen for prepping meals, and plenty of indoor space for hanging out.

Gem on Sombrero

Despite some issues experienced with the Pools, and lack of response from the management company, this location is an absolute gem ! Hopefully the pool issues will be remedied soon. It is a great site to have a boat as well and to get access to the ocean!

Sombrero Beach

Fabulous home within walking distance to Sombrero Beach. We had 3 couples, and more than enough room. We witnessed two turtles being released back into the sea at Sombrero Beach too. Beds are comfy, well stocked home. We spent most of our time in the pool if we weren’t out and about. The jacuzzi never got over 90-93, although it allowed us to just stay in longer! Barbecue was handy too! We were there for 8 nights and ate in four of those nights. Highly recommend.

Family Keys Vacation

We chose this property for its location and the size of our group (10). The house was immaculate and all the amenities were in good condition and usable. The dock was great and my kids fished every day. We had a couple issues that arose while we were there and the host/owner were very fast to respond and address any concerns. My only comment is that this property does say ten people and that is only the case if two people sleep on separate couches. If they had a fold-out/inflatable bed available it would have been spot on, in my opinion. Aside from that, all beds and accommodation was very comfortable and 0 complaints. While we were there the hot tub stopped heating and the owner had it fixed that day! We would definitely stay here again and recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Marathon/keys. You will not be disappointed.

Key Quest - Excellent Location and House

This house and Marathon FL is the perfect place for a vacation. We had 6 adults for this trip and each of us enjoyed this trip. There was plenty of room and privacy for all 3 couples. Kitchen had everything we needed - and then some! The house was clean and tidy, pool was large and the amenities were excellent. We had access to tons of ice, fishing poles, hot tub, fire pit, bikes, kayaks, cornhole, beach towels, everything you can think of. The beach is very close. We did try to count the steps to the beach, mentioned in the description, but kept losing count (LOL). The owner has put considerable effort in to make this house a home away from home. Wonderful house and I hope to return to next year.
