Poolside Paradise
This was our first visit to the Keys and we were very pleased. The house is cozy and clean, and the outdoor pool area is phenomenal. Jerry and Lynn were wonderful hosts. The only bad part of the trip was returning to central Illinois weather.

Dragonfly Lite
Beautiful outdoor patio, amazing pool, and a very well air conditioned house. We had a great week here, only thing we wished was different was the jacuzzi connected to the pool was the same temperature as the pool, other than that, fantastic host and property.

Great Trip
We had an amazing time at your rental! The pool was warm & we enjoyed spending our days in the beautiful yard. The property was clean, cozy and absolutely perfect for us. They had even put a bottle of champagne in the fridge to surprise us for our anniversary! It was a very thoughtful gesture. Jerry checked in prior to arrival and during our stay to ensure everything was going well. We were able to walk to the Lazy Daze restaurant and other restaurants are a short drive away. We will definitely look into staying here again when coming back to the Keys. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Perfect home base to enjoy the beautiful Florida Keys! We divided our time between exploring Marathon and relaxing poolside. The owners have made this home a private resort-style destination unmatched by any other place we stayed. Already looking forward to another visit!

Wonderful stay and property!
We much enjoyed our week at the Dragonfly Lite. The communication from the owner and property manager is excellent, timely, fast. The home is nicely decorated and very clean. The pool and the entire backyard is visually very pleasant, comfortable, clean, and perfect for a family. We loved the privacy fence that the property provided. You won’t be disappointed staying here!

We loved staying at the Dragonfly Lite! It was so clean and well kept! The backyard and pool were a true oasis and so beautiful and relaxing! We loved everything about staying here!

Backyard paradise
Perfect yard to relax. Sitting areas, grilling area beautiful swimming pool and fresh bananas. House was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was small but functional. Close to restaurants, mini golf, sunset cruise and the old 7mi. bridge thats perfect for walking, keep an eye on the water we saw sea turtles and stingrays. The sun sets right across the street. It was very quiet during our stay

Dragonfly Lite, week in paradise
Everything here was perfect. Property manager, Barbie met us at house to orient us to everything. She did a great job, and I felt comfortable contacting her for needs, but we had none. Very clean inside and out. Beach chairs and umbrella provided as well as beach towels. Kitchen had everything needed if you want to cook. Close to many excellent restaurants. And the pool...so beautiful and relaxing, very private. Great location to explore the Keys if you can tear yourslef away from the pool. Property owner also communicated frequently with suggestions for fishing tours, activities, etc. We would not hesitate to recommend this property and hope to return soon.

Great stay even with a Hurricane!!
This place is a hideaway with the way the owners have it set up! When you walk through the gate your private paradise. Even before and after the storm the owner and caretaker was checking on us making sure everything was a great experience! I have stayed a lot in the "Keys" and this has been my favorite !!!

Our best trip to the keys yet
Dragonfly Lite exceeded our expectations! We have always stayed in resorts but decided to try something different this year and we were so happy. The pool was amazing and the house felt like home. The neighborhood was quiet and in the best spot in Marathon in my opinion.

Dragonfly Lite is our favorite Caribbean retreat that we can drive too!

Why they chose this property

We were able to move in and started living the keys life. In a private setting.
Marathon has so much to offer: Dolphin Research Center, Turtle Hospital, Pigeon Key, Seven Mile Bridge and Crain Point Museum & Nature Trail.
A good selection of restaurants and Sombrero Beach.

What makes this property unique

Your own private pool! Location must I say more.
