We really enjoyed the gulf front property in marathon. Easy to make a day trip to key west or key largo. Outdoor area was great for sunsets.

Personally, this was the first rental where the owner didn't provide the cheapest type of toilet paper to their renters. Not only was the house ideal but so we're the little things (like TP). My wife and her friend saw a lot of sea life and they're marine enthusiasts. And that back porch...not sure if we spent more time inside or there. And that bench on the far side was a genius move. Looking forward to staying here again.

Great time as usual. Good location. Will miss not being back due to family use. Heather is very quick to respond to issues.

We loved the location, sadly the weather was quite mixed! We actually had some heating on! The house is great albeit a little tired and could do with smarting up a bit, given the cost of the accommodation. We were unable to swim due to the sea grass everywhere. Sadly the bikes didn’t work either which was a shame(poorly maintained and rusted) The location is stunning and the sunsets were amazing.
