Can We Visit Again???

We were absolutely thrilled with this property. My husband loved that he could put his rental boat in the slip. I loved the outdoor, enclosed porch with a stunning sunset view. The walk to one of Florida's premier beaches is so quick and direct. From the yard we saw manatees, fish and even an eel. The only downside is that the location is not easily swimmable and there isn't a pool but with the beach so close, it was not a problem.

Awesome Stay

Loved the bay, great fishing. Caught some grouper out back. Overall the house itself was beautiful. Would definitely stay again. Only slight downside was no fishing poles or kayak paddle but not a big deal at all.

An Excellent Stay!

We had an excellent stay at the Jewel of Marathon! Definitely a jewel, excellent location just a few minute walk to Sombrero Beach, close to tons of great restaurants and the 7 mile bridge! The layout of the house was fantastic for 2 couples or a family with a great screened porch, outdoor area with a great view and manatees in the mangroves. The kitchen was well stocked and great to have beach chairs to use too. We had a fantastic time and hope to return to this jewel! Thank you!!!

Great location & house

Great location for boating, kayaking, biking, beaching. House and property are designed very well to take advantage of the water and views. Vacasa was very helpful when we had a couple of minor issues.

Excellent!

We had an excellent Stay at the Jewel of Marathon. We rented a boat for our stay and was able to park it at this home. The location of this home was fantastic. Close to everything we wanted both on land and by by boat.
