Updated, gorgeous waterfront home with pool, dock & kayaks

Marathon Waterfront Recreational Paradise

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Experience your own secluded paradise at this four-bedroom Marathon vacation rental, where a private beach on Florida Bay, gorgeous ocean views, a swimming pool, dock, and a fleet of kayaks provide unfettered access to the Florida Keys.

Located on the tranquil bayfront of Grassy Key, this four-bedroom home in the Marathon island chain is an ideal getaway for fishermen, boaters, nature lovers, and sunbathers in search of warm weather, clear water, and tropical comfort.

No detail has been overlooked in this recently updated home, which is gorgeously and meticulously decorated to complement its island surroundings.

Walk into the open living room, where high-beamed ceilings and plush sofas create an inviting space that is full of light. The large windows frame the lush beauty outside, while a flatscreen TV and WiFi offer every indoor comfort.

The full kitchen is equipped for cooks of all skill levels, and the dishwasher ensures that they won't waste one minute on chores. Guests can sip their morning coffee at the bar counter or enjoy family breakfasts at the dining table.

In a region blessed with warm weather year-round, friends and family will spend most of their time in the spectacular outdoors. The private beach area includes a private pool. There's also a balcony off the primary bedroom where you can lounge and enjoy the scenery.

Itching to explore the open water? Dock your boat and sail on the open water or take one of the seven kayaks out for a morning paddle. Whether you're sport fishing in deep water or dropping a line in Florida Bay, there's a cleaning station, gas grill, and outdoor eating area to prepare and enjoy your catch.

Guests can swim and fish right outside their door and Marathon is full of all kinds of activities. Interact with dolphins less than half a mile away at the Dolphin Research Center, or learn about the species that reside in the Florida Keys Wildlife and Environmental Area only eight miles west.

So if you're seeking sun, solitude, and easy access to fishing, boating, and swimming, book this beautiful Florida Keys vacation rental today!

Amazing stay!
Do not hesitate to stay here. We were in heaven for an entire week! The home is beautiful and has so much more than any rental home we have stayed in. The beds were extremely comfortable with a lot of extra pillows, blankets. They supplied an abundance of bath towels and even beach towels The kitchen was well equipped with everything! The dock was the best part as we saw many fish and small sand sharks daily. The sunsets were spectacular and the pool was nice. The outdoor entertaining area was great to sit and relax to cool off. There is everything you need on the outside and inside the home. Vacasa was extremely helpful and responded quickly to our questions. I would rate this property a 10,000 if I could ! We had a wonderful time here and definitely plan to return.

Nice house, but issues with plumbing weren’t solved for 5 days. Also, some lights on the dock haven’t been working for a couple years. We did eventually get one working.

Fantastic stay!
We loved staying at this home (and really didn't want to leave)! So many small touches/conveniences that made for a more comfortable stay. The home and views were even better than the pictures.

So many amenities, I could have left lots of things at home. Kids enjoyed the pool and snorkeling in the gulf. Guest services brought a blender for us some the one in the house didn’t work. Great fall stay in the keys!

Wonderful!
I could easily stay at this house for a month. It has everything you need. We played hours of corn hole, kayaked, watched the fish by the dock, swam and sunned ourselves by the pool, grilled out and watched playoff games in the outdoor kitchen/family area. We enjoyed several different restaurants that were close by. One of my favorite vacations by far.

Perfect Stay in the Keys!
We booked this trip to celebrate my moms retirement! We had 4 adults and it was everyone’s first time to the keys. We absolutely loved our stay! We spent the majority of our days in the pool, on the dock and hanging in the outdoor living space. We loved the dock and saw tons of wildlife during our week stay, including nurse sharks, barracudas, sting rays, lobster and lots of colorful fish! We also really enjoyed the kayaks. The house itself was very clean and well stocked. Everything in the kitchen was labeled and easy to find and put away which we loved. The ac worked really well and the beds were comfy. We had one small issue while we were there (which was no one’s fault) and the owners and property management team took care of it immediately! They were very communicative and easy to work with. Don’t hesitate to book this house!!!

Beautiful House with Amazing views all around
Nicely laid out house with all of the comforts necessary to enjoy a week in paradise! The dock held my interest everyday… better than being in an aquarium there was so much to see. Very clean and comfortable home. Loved our manager Megan. She was very responsive, friendly and efficient.

Great time!
We enjoyed staying here! After being out and about during the day it was nice to come back to the house and relax. Everyone had their choice of relaxing: in the pool, next to the fire pit, kayaking or watching television. Being in the “middle” of the keys made most things very accessible. The dock was great. We rented a boat for the day and we’re able to come back for lunch, then head out again. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect House & Location
Our group of family & friends had a great time at this house - we have already booked it again for next year! The house is beautifully kept and had everything we needed and more. The covered patio area allows you to still enjoy the outdoors even with inclement weather. Several restaurants are located close by as well. The view is incredible!

Perfect for a family of 6
Don't let the window coming in full you, this place was great. Central to the Keys, you could get to Key West or Islamorada easily. The house is quaint and laid out perfect for our vacation. We really enjoyed the outside area and the kitchen was well stocked. The internet worked well and the pool temperature was fine in March.

relaxing family get-away
We loved this house! It was beautiful, very clean, and well stocked. The outdoor area was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. We loved the all the outdoor seating, and the landscaping was fabulous. It was a kind of odd location, sandwiched between a trailer park and a marina, but it was very private, which is what we wanted.

Absolutely Beautiful!!
This home is gorgeous- what you see in the pictures is what you get! We had a wonderful vacation here and there isn't a thing that the owners missed. It was beautifully decorated, very clean, comfortable beds and just FABULOUS all around. It was one of the most peaceful/relaxing vacations we have had in a long time. My boys (well all of us really) enjoyed the dock and looking at all the fish and sharks - YES I said sharks but don't worry only nurse sharks! My boys caught one the very first night we were there and then caught 4 all together. Oh and did I mention Iguana's? Holy cow, huge ones - we were all stunted at what we saw in Florida, that we have never seen before - such a fun/great experience. The only slight negative I would give on this place, is the live camera. At first it didn't bother me, but when the thermostat kept being changed through nest, is when I started to get a tad creeped out, because I felt like we were being watched and the owners knew every time we would come and go. I totally get why they have them, but still its a little creepy and unsettling. This location is perfect for the low key/private vacation. We enjoyed renting a pontoon boat for two days and parking it at the dock, relaxing at the pool (the water temperature was perfect), cooking out and watching TV outside. We did go down to Key West for a day and it was a blast but were excited to return to the quietness of Marathon! None of us wanted to leave and would definitely rent this home again- no questions asked! The layout was perfect and my husband and I agreed when we build our home, this exactly how we want it!
