"Such a great spot! We had a fantastic stay in Marathon. The pool was a hit with the kids (the gate on the stairs locks for pool safety). We docked our boat right at the house, very convenient. The house was as described, lots of towels, linens etc. Less than 5 minute drive to Sombrero Beach, perfect spot for snorkeling, soaking in the sun and playing in the sand."

"Kon Tiki was the perfect vacation getaway! The house was beautiful with fantastic water views for both sunrise & sunset! The backyard was just what we were looking for with a private pool and shaded tiki hut for lounging. Great place to relax & enjoy the island lifestyle!"

"Kon-Tiki is in an outstanding location, and offers so many outdoor activities! We launched the house kayaks in the canal from the house dock, and paddled through the canals of beautiful homes, boats, and mangroves to the ocean's edge and back. We rode the bicycles provided, and walked to Sombrero beach. We relaxed in the pool, and on the dock. We rented a boat for three days, and docked it at the house. We went cruising, snorkeling, and fishing in it. The back yard is very private and beautiful, with palm trees and lush vegetation. The kitchen is beautiful, and well-stocked. We cooked several times. I liked the deep washer and dryer. The upstairs, king size bed was comfortable. There is a lot of closet space."

This property is incomplete disarray! I will be sending an email to the management company asap

Location was great. The property is in complete disarray. It is NOT taken care of and maintained. It is NOT worth the money spent. It was dirty, things didn't work! Beds were not made. I called REPEATEDLY with ZERO response!

Our stay in Marathon.

Good location. Close to restaurants, beaches, shopping, attractions. The house was nice. The paint job was a bit odd (not quite finished). The pool was nice, even though a bit smaller than it looked to be in the photos. It was a short walk to a nice beach. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
