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!

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.

We really enjoyed the property. It was well maintained, clean, and well stocked. We loved the pool and the easy boating access to the ocean.

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!

It’s a beautiful place! Sombrero beach is wonderful. We have a beautiful people around , good weather and good restaurants. When we came back to home from outside is sensational because we feel confortable and we found everything we need. So, tank you very much! It was wonderful time at Marathon keys ♥️♥️

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!!

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.
4.7
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.

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.
4.7
Property was fantastic, it had everything we needed for the week. Pool was great, house was clean and beautiful.
Pool chiller option was worth it!
We would definitely stay here again.

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.

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!

Beautiful home with a private pool, only an hour from Key West. Great for the whole family.
4.7
Great location close to Sombrero Beach. We appreciated the use of the bikes and the kayaks. The canal had a bit of a smell of seaweed but that didn’t bother us. We loved the outdoor kitchen and the outdoor space in general!
4.7
This home offered everything we needed for a break from winter! We enjoyed picturesque sunrises, utilized the kitchen for breakfast, walked or biked for exercise, cooled off in the private pool, and strolled to the beach for a change in scenery. Corinne was quick to respond to any questions.

We are Florida natives and never visited the Keys before. Our family planned a big trip this year to celebrate several significant birthdays and a graduation. The property did not disappoint. The home is well decorated, cozy, and quite. It has everything one would need including a fully stocked kitchen (except for spices) with stunning quartz countertops and boxed fans tucked away in the closets for those of us who need them to sleep. It's very close to the beautiful Sombrero Beach, within walking distance. Shopping and restaurants are also nearby. The Turtle Hospital and Old seven mile bridge (diring sunset) are a must. Also make sure you visit Sweet Savannah's ice cream shop. We were within a comfortable walk, bike ride, or drive from anywhere we wanted to go. I do recommend packing bug spray if you'd like to sit out by the pool in the mornings or evenings. The no see-ums were too much for me. They didn't bother my other family members though. We didn't get to use the kayaks as there was no real place I could find to go to. Kayaking in the ocean can be difficult depending on the wind and currents. I'd hoped to find nearby mangroves but had no luck. Still, it was a great place to stay and we really enjoyed our Thanksgiving weekend there!

Stayed 11/5-11/12 & loved every minute. House was as advertised…from the bedrooms, bathrooms & kitchen. Outside pool & new kitchen were used daily. Great location to shopping as well as some of our favorite restaurants.
4.7
Great house with an amazing view of the atlantic! Beautiful and functional outdoor kitchen made cooking fun.
4.7
The home is beautiful and just as pictured. Location could not have been better. We stayed during Hurricane Ian so there was unexpected issues that could not have been anticipated. These were resolved as soon as Ian passed.
We were able to still see Manatees in the canal and was visited my local crabs. We cannot say enough good things about Corrine and Katie.

We have been coming down from North Carolina for several years now and this was the most relaxing one yet. This one meant more to me because we brought my parents with us with my mom fixing to have a tumor removed in a couple weeks after the trip. She made the statement that it was the best vacation she has had in a long time. So thank you for your hospitality and making this trip a special one to remember. We enjoyed the quietness of this property along with the pool after going out fishing for the day. The outdoor kitchen was awesome to cook in. We can’t wait to get back down there.

Booking easy. Check in on the app stated 3pm but the local contact for the booking stated 4pm. We arrived around 4pm. When we arrived, the pool cleaner was present along with the house keeper who was still cleaning. She asked us to give her 30 more minutes so we waited outside on the back patio. She finally left and we started unpacking until the cleaners had to return as they forgot to leave the toilet paper. Nice house with plenty of room for our stay. Had the necessities like towels, linen, cookware. House was not clean. The kitchen drawers really needed to be cleaned out. We had to wash any dishes prior to using. Dishwasher was full when we arrived so we had to unload it. I swept the floor in the main part of the house and ended up sweeping up old tupperware lids from beneath the sofa. Back patio was nice to hang out on. Wonderful outdoor kitchen. We attempted to cook on the grill and half way through cooking our burgers, the propane tank ran empty. Beautiful view from the back with the canal and ocean in sight. Unfortunately for us it was that time of year that the seaweed is abundant and smells awful! It was really bad in the canal. They had kyacks for your use which is really nice but with the water so smelly we didn’t get to enjoy them. Rain came and cleared it up enough we were able to see a couple of manatee. Pool outback is great for relaxing but due to its size, it really gets hot fast during the summer. We actually didn’t swim our last to days of the week because the pool turned green. We rented a boat during our stay. Canal was very close to the ocean so it made getting out to the open water easy and quick! Close to the lighthouse for snorkeling. We advise due to the tides that you don’t attempt a boat of much size at all. Ours was 28 ft and we were only able to come and go during very small windows of time. We actually bottomed out attempting to come in one day. Just be aware it’s shallow! House was close to a lot of things we had on our to do list. Great that it’s right up the road from the Publix. Local restaurants nearby had good food and drinks! Overall our stay was good.
4.7
House is great and we loved the location. My only issue is with the canal and channel. Our 28’ boat could not be used during low tide (in or out) and this limited our boating during the trip.
4.7
We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, kitchen is well stocked and very organized house! We all slept like babies! So quiet. We enjoyed pool and outdoor kitchen. Plenty of parking. Close to Publix! Beach is a walk away or bike ride which is hard to find in the keys. Our only downside is something that is not controlled- sargassum had been pushed in because of the wind and it’s just that time of year. Heat of the Summer. So the smell was strong at the beach and backyard. We live on n Florida and understand that this happens up and down the coast during the late summer time. We still enjoyed our stay and stay again.

Comfy home for a family of 6
We loved staying at this property! It was convenient to Overseas Hwy 1, and Publix Grocery store. The beds were all comfortable, except for the 2 twin beds. They could use better mattresses, and that room was a little hard to keep as cool as the rest of the house. The bathrooms were a good size, and had good water pressure - great after a hot day out on adventures! All appliances we used, worked great. Did not have a chance to use the new outdoor kitchen, except for the ceiling fan and deck chairs.

Anniversary Trip
My husband and I had a fantastic stay celebrating our 20 year anniversary. The pool was the perfect size for us, he tried his hand at fishing in the canal, and we were a very short distance to Sombrero Beach where we enjoyed seeing a turtle release. The house had everything we needed and more. Location was perfect, making it easy for us to visit multiple places in the Keys.

Comforts of home
Our stay here was very comfortable and relaxing. Spacious but not overwhelming. The kitchen had all the essentials for the seasoned cook with plenty of space to socialize and prepare meals. Open air space between kitchen and living room kept the family together during house time.
We are avid boaters/fishermen and the driveway was the perfect accommodation for boats. We loved the dock area here. However, Mother Nature did not co operate for our trip. The winds were 25+ during our stay, and we did not bring our boat around and dock at the house. However, the property was perfect for parking our boat and easy to get in and out of driveway. We decided to go across the 7 mile bridge to the protected areas of Big Pine/ No name key with our boat. We made days trips, and tho inconvenient, we had a remarkable time. We even saw key deer while at No Name. No one can predict the weather, and having a plan B dissolves disappointments.
Sombrero beach is at the end of the street, and is a beautiful place to enjoy and relax. There is also a pier at the beach.
After our days of fishing and touring, the pool was a welcomed unwinding spot.
My husband has no fear, and took the kayak out a couple mornings bearing the winds. If there is water in front of him, so is a fishing pole. Lol
Key West is only an hour drive and we enjoyed much of Key Wests history. We visited Bahia Honda State Park, a short trip across the bridge.
In a nutshell, the home was perfect, our trip was memorable. There is not much more we could ask for. Thank you for sharing you home with us
