Island vibes

We just had a week here and absolutely loved every minute. The private pool, access to the dock to fish. We were lucky enough to see dolphins, stingray and a manatee!! Absolutely stunning views of the Gulf of Mexico. Can't wait to plan another trip!

Outdoor Oasis

The property is perfectly located to enjoy unobstructed views of the Gulf all day long. The pier offers up close views of fish, rays and manatees. Evening stargazing is awe inspiring. The kitchen is well stocked for those that cook. We were able to enjoy the pool and kayaks. The outdoor area is such that you can always find sun or shade, depending on your mood. This is the second year we’ve been here and plan to come back next year.

Beautiful property

We have stayed at this property three times. We love the house, dock and pool! The house is well stocked and wonderfully decorated. It has always been meticulously cleaned. We have appreciation for the care taken with small details that make our trip all the more enjoyable. My only concern was that the pool heater wasn’t working when we arrived. There was a quick response and repair but we could only use the pool for half of our stay. Hoping to return.

Always great

Our 2nd stay at this home. Fantastic location, well laid out, comfortable and clean. Amazing exterior amenities and view. The only reason i didn't give 5 stars is because there were repeated problems with the pool heater making the water too cold to enjoy it. That said the management and owner did have the pool company out to service but they were unable to resolve the problem completely during our stay.

Perfect Week in Marathon

The house was perfect and it is clear the owner has great attention to detail. Everything is there, and is of high quality. Can’t emphasize how nice it is to have every amenity and to feel like the owner is sharing their home with you, and not just like being at a rental with “rental grade” features. We really enjoyed sitting on the dock and watching the sunsets and were greeted with a parade of LEOS satellites. So cool to see more than 25 satellites in 10 min. Pool and accommodations were great and the kitchen was really well fitted out. Lovely piece of paradise and we will return!

Vacation 2024

Was a great week with beautiful weather, caught and saw plenty of fish off of the dock. Rented a boat for the day and docked it at the property while we refreshed and headed back out to amazing views.

Outside Oasis

The house is updated on the inside with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable eating area and living room. The outside space makes the house. The pool and hot tub are perfect and depending where you want to sit, in the sun, or away, there’s a place for you. The kayaks are super easy to take out and you can head to the mangroves to see fish and birds. They also have bikes along with helmets. We had a minor problem with the whirlpool, called the pool maintenance number we were given and someone was there within 30 minutes. There’s 2 benches at the end of the pier to watch the beautiful sunsets. Warning, bring bug spray, the no-seeums love northerners.

Our top choice in Marathon

This is our second stay at this home. We have rented many homes in Marathon and it’s our favorite. It is the most comfortable home we have rented and has everything we need: a nice heated pool, a dock for fishing, plenty of fish, a huge tv with all kinds of channels including streaming channels, huge living room, fully equipped kitchen, two large bedrooms with king size beds and en suite bathrooms, very conveniently located in a nice and quiet neighborhood, close to pickleball and many good restaurants. What else could one want?

About the host

Hosted by Pam

Host profile image
We first came down to Marathon in 2017 and fell in love with the KEYS instantaneously. It is relaxing, serene and beautiful. We especially enjoy coming down with our kids to regroup as a family; spend time fishing, swimming, going out to eat and just relaxing together. We bought this house in 2019 from my brother and wife who owned and ran Vista Linda since 2011.

Why they chose this property

Vista Linda is Paradise!
Enjoy the Panoramic views of the Gulf, relaxing in the pool and hot tub, fishing, reading a book under the ficus tree, watching the wildlife or just basking in the sun. It is the best place to unwind and relax!
Our beds are very comfortable, and the amenities are abundant!

What makes this property unique

Our rental includes with no extra cost to you:
The use of 2 kayaks
The use of 3 bikes
Private Heated Salt Water Pool
Large Brand new overflow Hot tub spa 12/2016
