Relaxing

My family and I enjoyed our vacation. The house was fully equipped, clean and in a private quiet area. We had a minor issue during our stay. The management company and owner were quick to respond and address the issue immediately. The house and Marathon might be our new vacation spot.

Relaxing

This property was perfect! The private pool allowed us to have fun without others interrupting. Some noise from building across the canal, however did not ruin our trip and the owner let us know ahead of time. Great walking path which we utilized each day. Kayaked along the canal and out into the ocean. Great Vacation!

Sombrero Drive

The house was as seen in the pictures except for one thing.The ocean view was not there because they were building 2 new homes They started construction at 6 am hammering and loud noises for the entire week,including Thanksgiving Day! Had we previously known this, we would have chosen a different location,It was not relaxing at all and we were all very disappointed. The manager was very responsive when we had 2 small issues with the home. We had a beautiful week although I think they should of made us aware of not having an ocean view and all of the construction. When I rent a home in the Keys, I always rent ocean view, you pay a premium for this and I was not happy at all. We had a beautiful week weather wise, When I rent again next year I will be more vigilant to make sure we are getting the ocean view that we payed for

Beautiful piece of paradise

Wonderful home on last canal overlooking the ocean. Very comfortable, well appointed beds and kitchen. Great pool and outdoor grill area. Decorated just as you’d expect for a tropical getaway. Quiet area, loved riding the bikes to Sombrero Beach. Kayaks were great fun as well. Would definitely stay again. Thank you for the hospitality Corrine!

Nice home close to everything

We had a blast staying at this house. It accommodated my family comfortably and the pool was perfect to relax in after a hot day out. We loved that it was walking distance to the beach. It was also close to shopping and great dining. We were able to explore so many cool places and didn’t have to spend the whole day in the car to get there. This house was definitely perfect for my family and we would recommend this house for any family looking to relax and explore.

Fun and quaint but roomy cottage

My wife and I and our adult kids stayed for a week. Great open kitchen/dining/living room. Plenty of space for 6 adults. The pool and outdoor kitchen were great. Pool was used a lot to soak up the sun and fun. Easy walk to the beach to swim or fish. A manatee swam right up to me in the canal and let me pet its head. We loved it!

Great stay!

This is a lovely home! The pool is great, nice size and we did have the pool chiller running because it was a HOT week! We rented a 22 ft boat 3 of the days we were there and had no problems getting the boat in or out even at low tide, the way in from the gulf is clearly marked. I had read reviews about the canal being smelly and having lots of seaweed, aside from the first day the canal was very clear. We made use of the kayaks and it was very easy getting them in and out of the water….beautiful area to take advantage of them! The house is very well appointed with anything you could possibly need to cook meals there, have a great nights sleep and plenty of towels…towels for the pool, towels for the the boat and towels for your showers! The outdoor grill was clean and the outdoor kitchen area great! The storage closet has pool toys and a chest freezer for bait and extra ice storage….and fishing poles. It’s about a 9 minute walk to Sombrero Beach if you decide to walk rather than drive. All the conveniences of shopping are very close by as well as restaurants! We were very comfortable here, open family area with kitchen so easy to have everyone all together…that’s what we want in our family vacations….highly recommend and I would definitely stay here again!!

Great House

I stayed with some friends to do a week of fishing. Didn’t disappoint. We rented a 25ft cc for the week had no problem navigating from the dock out to our spots. Great location close to Sombrero Beach and Publix.

Family Fun Spot

We had a great time and the property manager Katie was such a pleasure to work with. The AC had a little bit of difficulty keeping up with the 100 degree Florida Keys Heat but other than that this place was perfect for the 4th of July! Met the neighbors and they were great! Fishing off the dock was great, saw manatees off the dock, pool was perfect and location was excellent! Loved the beach access down the street. Very peaceful.

Amazing!!!

This property is exactly as pictured. It’s a beautiful home in a very quiet neighborhood. We had a wonderful time fishing, going to the beach or just enjoying the view from the patio. This property is close to shopping and restaurants as well. We all really enjoy our stay and couldn’t be happier. This was such a relaxing vacation. The contract we had with the owner and the property manager was also a delight. We only wish we had taken the owners advice regarding the pool chiller. Without it the pool water was too warm for our liking. We hope to return to this amazing property.

What a gem!

We loved everything about it, and we would definitely stay again. The house was roomy, clean, and comfortable. We had two families of three staying. There was room to be together, and room to spread out. The pool looks tiny in the listing, but there was plenty of room for the kids to play and adults enjoyed it too. Just before check in we got a message offering to turn the heat on in the pool for an additional fee. We chose to wait on that. And didn’t feel it was necessary. One recommendation to the property manager would be to get a different cover for whatever the “do not touch” device is in the queen bedroom. The flashing blue light seems fine in the daylight. But in the dark of night it’s obnoxiously bright. I ended up strategically stacking pillows around it to block some of the light while trying not to impede airflow to the device. (Even a bit of electrical tape over the light on the device would do the trick.). But all in all we loved the place! And we will be back.

wonderful experience in Marathon Key

This property is lovely, clean, and well-appointed. It had everything you could want for a comfortable vacation, especially if you like to cook! We used the pool every day. We loved using the bikes to tour the neighborhood. Great location, with many things to do close by. We're so glad we chose this property!

About the host

Hosted by Corinne Johnson

When not in Marathon, we live in Little Rock, Ar. We love the keys and bought this house instead of a boat! We are still looking for the right boat, but are so glad we found the right house! We love sitting in the pool (it has ledges all around) listening to Jimmy Buffet. Sombrero Beach is wonderful and just a short walk away.

Why they chose this property

We have rented homes throughout the Keys and like the central location Marathon.
Marathon has the feel of the Keys, but also has the conveniences of home.

What makes this property unique

The short walk to Sombero Beach and sitting in the private pool are our favorites
