FANTASTIC STAY!

Everything here was perfect! It was clean, well stocked with the most needed items and we would definitely stay here again! The boat dock had plenty of room for our 22’ boat, just wish we had cleats to tie to, but that’s the only constructive feedback we have! It was the perfect size for us and exactly what we needed!

Perfect trip

House was perfect for our family of 4. Having the pool was a huge bonus on hot days! House is close to stores, restaurants, activities and beaches. We loved being on Marathon, but especially loved being back in the private neighborhood of Key Colony.

Just us

I would have to say the whole rental process for this trip was the easiest one we have done. Or maybe we just got the hang of it. But regardless we had a great time!

Peaceful, lovely stay.

Loved this stay. Exactly like the pictures. Easy check-in and check-out. Quiet, peaceful location. Cute and cozy home. Very clean and new feel. Kitchen had everything we needed. Bed was very comfortable. Great internet connection. Air conditioner and fans worked great. Excellent shower pressure. Washer/dryer appreciated. Loved the clean pool. We paid extra is have the pool heated. Beach towels provided. We enjoyed sitting outside next to the canal. Lots of outdoor seating. Walking/biking path nearby.
