About this house rental
LICENSE: VACA020-937.
Write to me with any questions, under the MESSAGE OWNER SECTION and I will be happy to chat with you. This single family home on large lot and cul-de-sac street has been totally renovated with new everything in 2010. Tiled floors throughout, large granite counter top, stainless steal appliances, decorative lighting, modern bathrooms, and a large wrap around balcony with comfortable patio furniture surrounded by romantic white curtains giving you a true resort feel. The home is open, bright, and warm. New leather sectional sofa with 3 recliner (2018). Better then my own home! You can watch all the movies on a high definition 65 inch flat screen T.V. with surround sound. Kitchen area has a desk area where you can connect your computer to High Speed wireless internet (Fee Wifi) for those days where you just got to get some work done. The master bedroom has a king size bed (firm memory foam mattress), flat screen TV, and small private bathroom. The second bedroom sleeps 4 with one queen, top twin XL bunk on top, and twin XL trundle at bottom. Master has streaming T.V. . The home is on a deep canal ocean side (no issue for large boats), 75 foot private concrete dock with electricity and water. Rental includes dockage for ONE large boat. Boat lift on property is not available for renters. The home also has a chain link fence giving you peace of mind that outdoor toys are secure as well as security camera on boat slip area and front parking/entrance (although not needed, its very safe here). Note, no other security cameras as your privacy is respected. You can relax on the hammock under the coconut palms trees while the others in your party clean the catch of the day on our large fish cleaning table with it's own knife sharpener. Home is walking distance to everything you can need (deli, liquor store, movie theater, Kmart, Winn Dixie, Publix, Walgreens, Home Depot, and Park! Perfect for teens that can't drive but like their independence walking or riding bike by themselves to the park, movies, or shops. Family reunion? Inquire about nearby homes which are also available for rental.
Although Marathon is located about midway on the keys chain, it has just about anything you would need during your stay, including marathon airport (charter flights from Miami) and hospital in case you need medical attention during your stay. Key west is just a 45 minutes away. One of the best surprises when i bought this home was Sombrero Beach. This beach is only 5 minutes away by car and maybe 15 minute bike ride. Sombrero beach has white sand, coconut palms, private clean bathrooms, two volleyball courts, children play area with grass, barbecue grills and picnic tables, and the beautiful view of the ocean. A must visit. My teen (adult now) use to love marathon community park, which has its own X-tream skateboard park . This park has four tennis courts, a tennis wall, a combination hockey/basketball court (3 courts), two little league fields, and two soccer fields. There is also, two shuffleboard courts, two bocce ball courts, a batting cage, concession stand, amphitheater, picnic areas, and restrooms. Also, your teen will love to try out the cable wake boarding park! If you want to take a dip in a pool just go to sunset grill and raw bar where they have one of the largest pool in the keys overlooking the ocean at the seven mile bridge (free). Watch the sunset from here while at the bar listening to margaritaville. Enjoy some of the best fishing and diving available in the world. Sombrero reef is 4.5 miles away from our dock. It offers a spectacular reef and is just minutes away by boat ride. The seven mile bridge is probably the premiere location for the greatest game fish in Florida waters, the tarpon. The best part is that you will get top quality at a rate that can’t be beaten.

This might be the most well-equipped home that I have ever stayed in. It is in a great location right on a canal and is well stocked with everything you might need. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and the hammock right be the canal.

Mariella thought of everything at this spotless property with much to offer! We absolutely loved our stay, especially the hot tub, kayaks, and boat dock! The beds were extremely comfortable, the decor adorable, and the thought put into the accessories available was top knotch! Hands down one of the best places we have stayed in the keys!

Very clean and convenient home. We would stay again for sure. The Marina was about 2 blocks away which made launching our boat very easy. Thanks Mariella.

Great place to stay with a family of 4. House was clean and had everything you would need for a weeklong stay. Very clean and comfortable. Quiet at night and the location was central to all the keys. Being in the canal was fun. We fished (caught quite a few fish) and kayaked to the harbor and saw Manatee that came right to the kayaks. Just a comfortable place to stay! I would stay here again.

This is our second time back! We enjoyed marathon and the convenience of the area, It is close to
Seven mile bridge (for fishing), grocery store, Sombrero beach, tackle/bait store and many restaurants. The house is sitting on a canal that has many sea life. We have seen tarpons, manatee, various types of fish, and the house is equipped with kayaks to use to explore the waterways. Property itself is super clean, and extremely comfortable to stay in. It also has a jacuzzi that we enjoy and relax in after a long day of fishing. Overall, we love this place!

My wife and I, had a week with our daughter, who was on break from college and flew down from Utah. The place was perfect for us to enjoy family time and be able to get on the water and enjoy fishing and snorkeling! Mariellas place was clean,very nicely decorated with comfortable beds! The kitchen was well equipped with high quality cookware and everything you need ! We really enjoyed hanging out in the space below the house . We played ping pong and it was nice to be outside but under shade. We appreciated the kayaks and beach chairs.when we plan for next years trip to Marathon Mariellas place will be one of our top picks!

The property was clean and well maintained. It was exactly what our family of 4 needed! We enjoyed being able to dock a boat. The overall location was perfect for shopping, restaurants, and ease of getting to open water. The only down side was that we couldn't really jump in the water to cool off... the canal was too skinny and the water wasn't as inviting as the open blue ocean. We would recommend this property. Property owner was great!

Very nice place. Enjoy the location.
5.0
Check in was smooth and easy. House is excellent and even better than the pictures. We kept a boat in the canal behind the house and it was a fantastic set up. The dock is well maintained and equipped with everything you would need to fish/ boat ride. Water depths were enough to facilitate a large vessel as well as there being ample room to maneuver. There is about a 30 minute slow ride before sister creek but it is easy to navigate. Fish cleaning station is great and bait freezer was fantastic. I would recommend this property to anyone coming to fish and enjoy the boating lifestyle of the keys. The hot tub was clean and well maintained. The large king sized bed was extremely comfortable. I could go on for many more lines about how wonderful this property is. Also, cracked conch cafe is fantastic and a 2 minute walk from the house.

We loved the property. It had everything you needed for an enjoyable stay. It was very comfortable (beds, sofa's, etc.)
Kitchen was well equipped.
We enjoyed the downstairs area and being on the dock. Loved being able to keep our boat on the dock which made everything convenient. Great location, close to Publix and shopping. Walk to restaurants and bars. We would stay again.

To start I think this place has ruined us for any other rentals, there were so many pluses and perks. All the condiments, spices and the heaviest pots and pans, everything you need and coffee was wonderful to have right there. The master bed was super comfortable with a 3 inch mattress topper and spa robes to use for the hot tub. Maricella went over and above in communication even on Superbowl Sunday when we had a TV question. All in all the best place we have ever stayed.

We had an amazing time and made so many memories. My family loved eating together outside every morning and going to the beach after. The house was perfect for our family and had everything we needed for a perfect trip! There were so many things to do around the area. We will be back!

We had a fabulous time. House was very comfortable and roomy for our family of 5 (with adult kids). Plenty of amenities and the canal was perfect for docking the boat we rented. Hot tub was a wonderful end to each day. Definitely would recommend this home for a great vacation.

This home was the perfect size for us 4 adults. It was clean, beautifully decorated and updated and had lots of extras like the hot tub and ping pong table. The beds were the most comfortable I’ve ever experienced in a vacation rental. And the location on the canal is perfect for those bringing a boat. This home will be my first choice when returning to Marathon in the future.

This property is great for boating in the middle keys. Short ride to Atlantic or Bay side gives you time to get everything you need ready. House is very comfortable for two couples. Very well supplied kitchen. Grounds are exquisite. Everything you could need for a great time. Check in and out was a breeze. Couldn’t of ask for anything better.

Perfect Location!
This was our 2nd time to the Keys. We stayed in Key Largo the 1st time, but wanted to stay further in this time. The 1st time we drove and the 2nd, flew into Key West. We were celebrating my 40th birthday. This rental did not disappoint! It was in the perfect location and was the most relaxing vacation I’ve ever had. The kayaks and the ease of being able to put them in the water and explore was awesome! I have zero complaints about our stay. Would absolutely stay at this rental the next time we go back.

Holiday vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The property was in a great location within walking distance to restaurants, grocery stores, Walgreens and about a 2 mile walk to the beach. For those that like to cook, the kitchen is well stocked with very nice appliances. The outside patio was amazing. We enjoyed the hot tub, hammock and even a little ping pong. The upstairs deck was a great place to relax and enjoy coffee in the morning and some wine in the evening.
The area was quiet and an easy drive to the state parks and other restaurants. The homeowner provided a list of local restaurants which was very helpful. We enjoyed a few on the list and some more than once. Sombrero Beach was a nice place to visit and watch the sunset. The house is very cozy, comfortable and well cared for. Very nice place. If you are thinking about going to the keys and looking for a nice place to stay, we would highly recommend this property.
