"Lovely home situated right on the canal. We arrived to a very clean home that had everything we needed. The beach towels were a nice added bonus. The pool was super convenient and well taken care of. Our trip was a 10/10. We enjoyed renting bikes from Eaton Bikes in Key West and we snorkeled with Adventure Mermaid (or maybe it was Mermaid Adventures, lol). We definitely would rent this home again- it was super easy and well managed!"

"We planned a short trip to Marathon for my wife's birthday. The location was perfect, we could get just about anywhere in a few minutes. The home was very clean and spacious. This was the perfect place to settle down to at the end of the long days. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy the Keys."

This spacious modern 3 bedroom villa was just as advertised. Nice pool and boat slip for the independent traveler who doesn't need the trappings of a resort. Plenty of room for our family of six with two teens and grandparents for a pre-Xmas getaway

Vwry nice house with everything you need in the heart of the keys.
10.0 / 10.0
This place was great! Home away from home. It was very clean. The blender broke and they had a new one at the door within an hour. Had the boat out back and the marina personal were also very professional and personal. This will be my go to place forever when visiting the Keys on vacation.

We have stayed in the place twice each time racing in marathon. Will keep booking as long as it’s available each year
8.0 / 10.0
Not bad. Price is too high for this place. We like indigo reef much better. We chose this because we weren’t planning on being there from Saturday to Saturday and coral lagoon had a shorter minimum

My husband and I along with another couple stayed for a few nights while we were in town for our annual fishing trip in Marathon. The home provided us a relaxing space to stay, gather and close to everything we needed. We chose this location as opposed to a hotel so we could relax in mornings with coffee on the back porch together and have more of a private getaway to eat in if we desired. The location and amenities were an added bonus, although we didn’t use the pool during our stay, it was open and others seemed to be enjoying themselves. We met several other guests staying in other units around us that have been return guests and we can see why. Beautiful, well maintained and equipped with whatever you might need during your stay. A relaxing location overlooking the canal and nicely decorated home with comfortable beds. Great table for game night off the kitchen and our favorite was the back porch where we spent most our time when we were at the house. We would definitely recommend this rental and plan to return as future guests. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

8.0 / 10.0
The property worked well for various sleeping requirements. We have stayed in numerous short term rentals and were pleasantly surprised with some of the amenities: dishsoap, laundry soap, garbage bags, paper towels. Likewise it could have been better with a few extra toilet papers! TV worked well and the setting was great.
8.0 / 10.0
Over all very nice accommodations. Very clean. Well located.
My only beef was the check in time was 5 pm.
Very inconvenient to say the least.
10.0 / 10.0
This place coupled with the marina next door was absolutely perfect for our trip.
They were attentive, quick to respond and answered questions quickly.
The slip by the unit had power and fresh water to clean and keep the boat clean after a day on the water.
The boathouse marina next door is outstanding as well. They were very helpful for with our boat.
Thank you to all and definitely going to try to stay there again.

Stayed 4 Nights in December 2023 with 4 adults and 2 toddlers
Pros:
-Clean
-Good location
-Towel/Linens/Toiletries provided
-Nice layout
-Fully stocked Kitchen
Cons:
-Management company requires you to sign all rights away as part of rental agreement and has your credit card on file to charge you for any reason
-AC is very old and instructed not to set temp below 72 as it will freeze unit and you will be charged a service fee
-Fridge was really old, sign instructed you to only place food inside for first 24 hours. Fridge didn't actually work when we arrived. We called the next morning, had to schedule a tech to look at it, and a new fridge was delivered by 6pm. There was black water all over the floor, which was wiped up but never cleaned. We ask for $100 of spoiled food to be reimbursed, but as of this writing the management company has not replied.
Minor Inconveniences:
-Had to wash beach towels before departure
-5pm check in unless you pay extra $112
-About 150 feet from parking lot, which can be cumbersome when checking in and bring in groceries
-Main couch is show and you can't lay down if you are over 5'10"
Queen bedroom has very little room to walk around bed

It was a nice time - But 2 things detracted from the stay.
1. The 5 pm check in time is uncomfortable - losing the whole first day. Just seems with a standard 10 am check out and a check in that would be less than a 7 hour turnaround would be both achievable and appreciated.
2. The lounge TV didn't work properly - so we had no usable TV in the main lounge. With a 7 year old a TV is a must in a property of this nature. The property manager did visit the property after check in to Help with the TV problem. - but resolution never came, We followed up the next day and was told by the rental l company that they had phoned the TV company. We heard nothing more from the TV company nor rental company. So remained TV-less. I don't mean to complain, but just hope it can be resolved for the next incoming clients.

This is a nice convenient spot. There are fishing & diving charters within walking distance, in addition to several restaurants. Even though it’s near the Overseas Hwy there was no noise save the occasional airplane or boat. The pool area is really beautiful, as is the attached veranda along the canal.
8.0 / 10.0
We enjoyed our whirlwind stay. The home was spotless and very comfortable. The only difficulty was the 5:00 check-in time and the 10:00 check-out time really cut into our time there.

Relaxing
3.0 / 10.0
First off, the house is really great - good location, spacious, comfortable beds and nice view on the Marina.
Kitchen could be better equipped (as an example, although the house can host a whole family the only frying pan was for 2 people maximum). The placemats were also dirty and have obviously not be cleaned.
My main point is about the overall experience - after booking, I tried to reschedule but did not really receive any clear answer besides "we normally do not accept rescheduling"
Fine. Then I had to finalize the booking (it was already fully paid) by signing a 25 page contract; most of it did not apply as we were not bringing a boat but still had to go through a horrible online experience that took forever. The contract states that if you bring pets, they cannot go on the furniture, cannot be left unattended or have to be kept in a crate etc.
Does not make you feel welcome. I sent as requested picture of my pets plus their vaccination certificate.
Closer to our trip, I received a request for sending the same documentation. Follow up message was stating that I would receive the entry code one week prior while I got it at 4.30 PM on check-in day, after already receiving a message "almost time to check out,"
I love VRBO as it feels like a home away from home, but in this case I felt like I was dealing with robots

Very nice location, great for renting a boat. We will be back.
5.0 / 10.0
We loved the location, the marina so close by, the boat slip was also convenient, and the sunsets. We stayed here with our friends. Had three teens (one sleep down stairs in an air mattress) and 4 adults. It was the perfect size. From the reviews we knew to bring our own pillows and frying pans but otherwise they pretty much had all you needed for utensils and cooking. The grill was sub par and full of water so we chose to just fry our fish and steaks. The unit wasn’t totally clean when we got there but the management team was very responsive and offered to have someone fix the problem which we declined. Easier to just do it ourselves. The stackable washer was nice and large but a tad bit noisy. The AC worked great, furniture nice, location to restaurants and grocery stores was great also. The linens were soft but was just sheets and a thin blanket so I was glad I. Thought my own blanket like I always do. Overall it was a great stay and I would book again. (Was trying to but can’t find the link!!)

The property was everything advertised and more, peaceful, quiet and clean. Could not have asked for more, our unit for well equipped and furnished nicely. Everything was in great condition with one exception, the beds were very squeeky and firm, but i didn't lose any sleep over it. Thank you so much for a great vacation.

We had a great time staying here. It was very clean and spacious. I adored the covered porch and sat on it every morning with coffee and enjoyed the view. We saw a manatee come into the channel a couple times and enjoyed walking the marina. The pool is really nice too. The location of the property was close to everything too.
4.0 / 10.0
We've traveled the world and stayed in many VRBOs and similar places. This one was reasonable.
The property grounds are well kept. The common areas are very nice and the pool, in particular, was well suited for the approximately 25 units on site.
The unit jtself was functional. It could use a bit of TLC, but nothing significant -- mostly cosmetic -- with the exception of the dryer going out the last day of our trip.
Biggest irritations:
- cheap kitchen wear...we cooked a bunch and having two small frying pans was a bit frustrating. Obviously we made it work, but in the same way I make things work when I camp.
- dish towels and hot pads...there were none when we arrived...we got some two days later, which was appreciated but that's not something we should have to ask for
- bare bones ... with a group of six, we had to wash towels frequently as there were no extras...same with pillows and blankets.
All in all, it serves our needs. We may stay again but would likely look elsewhere.
5.0 / 10.0
Loved our stay at this property and community. Great small community and bonus of boat docks with quick access out. Everyone we met on grounds was so pleasant. Will book again without a doubt. Home had plenty of space for our family.
3.0 / 10.0
Overall, this property was spacious, clean and well-maintained. I expected more for the price though. The kitchen was under-furnished, with inadequate cooking utensils to prepare a home-cooked meal. The beds and pillows in all three bedrooms were lumpy and uncomfortable. And the great room easy chairs were spongy and not supportive. If these issues were addressed this could be a really first-rate property.
