Easy Access to the Ocean )

We chose this location due to how easy it was for us to access the ocean. The home has all the necessities, including, a big plus -- an outside ice maker and freezer. Very boater friendly - with nice neighbors. Sadly the weather did not cooperate the week we chose, giving us 25-33 mph winds, causing us to leave the boat on the trailer for 2 days. We have never experienced this type weather down in the Keys. It was even too chilly to swim in the pool, and some of the area around US1 near Florida City/Key Largo was on fire a few days before our departure which caused us to leave early because of road closures. Yet...we are thankful for the upstairs balcony and covered parking. We hope to choose a warmer week next visit.

Perfect location!

We needed a quiet upscale place where we could relax, but get to the action quickly. This house was perfect for that! My husband, my sister, and myself truly enjoyed the layout of the house, the amazing pool, and even got a visit from the local manatee family! It was close to amazing restaurants and had the perfect kitchen for relaxing meals at home. Highly recommend!

Great location

Location was great with direct ocean access. Pool was perfect for multiple adults and kids. It was especially nice that the pool gets shade from the house in the hot afternoon. The ice maker outside is a must have in the keys. It saves daily trips o the store to refill coolers. As a note to the owner, the fridge ice maker in the kitchen was broken and it is a pain to get ice downstairs every time. Also, need more silverware and basic utensils. We had to wash forks after every use. Overall a great house that can accommodate a few families.

A wonderful stay for 8 in Paradise

We had such a wonderful stay in Marathon, and this home was a perfect fit for two families, with four grown children. The canal, floating dock, pool, bedrooms, and additional refrigerator- made our 10 day stay amazing. The location in Marathon is close to everything, and just a little to close to Paradise Flavors for afternoon ice cream/popsicle treats!! Jay was extremely accommodating and prompt to jump on all the issues we were presented with. A note to all renters- if you make a mess, break things, ruin/steal kitchen and cleaning supplies- you are just making life for the next renter miserable. Just be a decent human and leave the home as well as, or a bit nicer than you found it! We reported the issues to Jay, who immediately had everything handled with the Handi-Man and supplies shipped in... a huge thank you to him for jumping on the issues and being a wonderful host!!!! Thank you for opening your home and sharing paradise with us! We look forward to returning soon!

2023 Family Vacation

This property was the perfect place to bring the children and grandchildren for a family vacation. The property was clean and included so many extras. The pool was especially perfect for young children and the adults alike. The steps allowed the young children to play while adults relaxed. There were daily visits from the manatees. There was plenty of space for three different families and two dogs. Location is close to restaurants, grocery store,fishing charters and the beach, but not on a main Street. The host was very responsive to any needs although we had very few. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a great week! Love the location of the house just minutes away from the ocean by boat. We had fun watching the manatees in the canal everyday. our kids especially love the pool and how they keep it so warm so they could swim at night. Had all the extras like paddle board, kayaks pool toys, chairs for the beach. There’s a coffee shop and ice cream bar right down the street. Also, a clothing gift shop, Birkenstock store and another ice cream shop a little further (walking) overall loved this place. Would stay again!
