Angler's at Sombrero is a newer development on Sombrero Beach Road, just down the street from Sombrero Beach - a beautiful oceanfront beach! Sandy beaches are not common in the Keys, so it a real asset to have an oceanfront sandy beach just down the street! There is a sidewalk all along Sombrero Beach Road where you can bike, exercise, or walk to the beach! About two minutes from the grocery store (Publix and Winn Dixie), a minute or so from the beach, and less than 10 minutes from any of the amazing restaurants and activities in Marathon, the location is perfectly centrally located! Only an hour from Key West and about 20 minutes from Bahia Honda State Park, you can easily make day trips!
We recommend that you have a car during your stay in the Keys.
We provide TP, PT, hand, dish soap, bath bar soap, laundry pods, laundry detergent, trash bags, basic kitchen/bath cleaner, dishwasher detergent that should be enough to last a week. We also provide all the bed linens, baths, and pool/beach towels and two propane tanks.
It is mandatory that the guest manage their trash throughout their stay. A Pineapple Properties team member will take the cans to the street for pick up on trash days and also return them to the spot where they belong. You just need to ensure your trash is taken to the cans and does not pile up during your stay.
We do ask that you clean the grill to the best of your ability before you leave. Do you not use charcoal in the grill as it is a gas grill.
$45 Management Fee is Damage Insurance covering up to 3k in damages.
The pool can be heated or chilled for a fee of $ 125 per 7 days, plus tax and credit card fees as applicable. Prorated for longer stay.

We enjoyed biking almost every day along with kayaking almost every day when it wasn't raining or windy. We also really enjoyed the lighted sidewalks for evening walks to the beach. Paying the extra for the pool heat was well worth it as our weather was not the warmest but still a wonderful week in the keys. The little things like having toilet paper, dishwashing soap, dish soap and soap for every bathroom really is a wonderful touch as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Marathon. We also enjoyed the beach chairs, toys and the stand up paddle boards as well. The pans for cooking were also excellent. Thanks again.

Loved this place! Came down for a holiday getaway with the family and was perfect for all of us. Unit was well equipped with kayaks, bicycles and all of the water toys for us to not to have to bring a lot of extra with us (perfect for flying in as we did) and since we rented a boat for the week, it made it easy to go out fishing and diving but just jumping on a going. Also, Kitchen had everything we needed, and the heated pool was perfect for the granddaughter! Merideth and the Pineapple Properties team were a pleasure to deal with as well. Overall, couldn't have asked for more!

We just returned from our week vacation in Marathon. The house was perfect for our family, we had 9 people and it was very spacious. The bedrooms were nice size. The house was very clean and had everything you would need for the week. Everyone in our group was happy with the arrangements. The outside was also clean, the pool and Tiki Hut was perfect for our nights. We didn’t bring our boat this time but there was a boat dock. Next time we are bringing the boat. Meredith was very helpful, always available for any issues. Which there weren’t any. We will definitely be back
Thank you again for everything

This house is one of the best we have rented. I was very impressed with everything that was provided—t. paper, paper towels, dish and laundry detergent, bath soap, pool towels and kitchen items. Most rental provide enough for one or two days, but we had enough for a week stay.
The house was tastefully furnished, and the pool and tiki hut was a favorite spot for us. It was too hot to ride the bikes, but the kayaks and paddle boards were used.
Meredith was great-always answered the phone immediately. The one issue that we had was resolved the same day.
I highly recommend this rental.

We loved everything about our stay. We have never been to a vacation rental that is so well appointed. Everything you need or want for a great time in the Keys they had! The bikes were so great, we used them every day! Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

This place was the perfect get away for our family. It's close to Sombrero beach but yet close to town. The pool and tiki area were great and having a grill down there made it the perfect hang out. The house was stocked with everything you need and then some. Our family enjoyed having the bikes, paddleboards and kayaks and exploring the island that way as well. If we make it down to Marathon again, we would rebook this property.

We had an awesome time staying at this house. There were 10 of us and we all had plenty of room. Meredith was absolutely wonderful to deal with and responded to us right away with everything. We spent so much time in the pool and fishing off of the dock. We even had a manatee come right up to us. The kayaks and paddle boards were great to have as well. The house is in a great location, close to everything. When we were there, the Sombrero Beach wasn’t great, but we had the pool anyway. I would definitely recommend staying here.

The property was awesome and very well appointed. We had everything we needed to enjoy our family vacation. Having Publix on the same side of the main Route 1 made all catering logistics a breeze.
Marathon had many options to eat, play and explore the keys going North or South with ease. Having a heated pool was great and comfortable early till late.

We were two families of four, child 12 years old and then three young adults and 4 adults. The house was perfect for us, plenty of room for all. We appreciated the pool towels, beach chairs, bikes, snorkel gear, kayaks, pool toys, etc. The beds were super comfortable, plenty of dishes, pots, pans., etc. The location was perfect, close to Sombrero Beach, shopping, etc. Meredith the property manager was very responsive, we had one minor issue she addressed that immediately. We highly recommend this property.

I would highly suggest that written directions on running the washer is attached to the washing machine. Same thing for the outside hose. I have been working both these items for many, many years and they both gave me and my children a run for our money as to how they work. Also, the bicycles weren’t usable either.
Overall, it was a great place to stay and we are thinking of coming back again next year.

Fantastic house
Really great rental. Beautifully decorated, nicely laid out for a group (we had two families of four), well equipped kitchen, lovely porch and pool area with both shade and sun options. Comfortable beds and pillows. Very clean and I'm very picky about this, actually looking under furniture to see if it is clean :) Fantastic location close to everything including a beach less than a 5 minute drive away. Only negatives were that some of the pool area furniture could use a little TLC and it would be good to have a couple of extra blankets. Also for those looking for a personal experience/interaction with the owner, this is a professionally managed unit with a property manager so not that. I would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful house that has everything you need!
Beautiful property! Very clean with all the amenities and supplies you need for a family!
8 of us traveled together (4 adults and 4 kids), and the house layout worked great for our 2 families. 5-6 manatees visited us when we first arrived, which the kids loved. The pool was beautiful. We choose to have the pool heated, which made for perfect morning/evening swims when we were stayed in March. The tiki hut was a great place to get out of the sun and relax.
The property manager was available and very responsive when we needed anything.
Great location, too! Sombrero Beach is near by, and we highly recommend to spend some time there. Publix is also close and convenient.
Highly recommend this property for your stay in Marathon!!

Excellent location/Fabulous Home
We stayed here for a week and loved every minute of it! The location is perfect - near shopping, restaurants, attractions and a beach at the end of the street. It was well appointed and very clean. The private pool and tiki hut were the icing on the cake. Meredith was easy to communicate with and very timely responses. I would highly recommend this home and may go back soon!

Beautiful rental
This place was perfect for our two families! Saw a couple different manatees in on the dock. Kids loved mangrove fishing. Just a great overall place to vacation! We couldn’t believe how well stocked things were. They really thought about every possible need at this rental!

Excellent place to stay with friends & family
Very spacious, well maintained and clean duplex. Everything we expected and then some. My family has been making a trip down to Marathon for several years and this was by far the best place we’ve stayed at. There were fishing poles, kayaks and paddle boards for our use during the stay as well. The brand new Weber grill was awesome. Our property manager was always available and helpful with anything we needed. The Publix is a short drive or a few minute bike ride right up the street. And the nicest beach in The Keys just right down the same road the duplex is on. We did not bring a boat this trip but the boat dock is well maintained and has nice fish cleaning station as well. Definitely recommend heating the pool during the cool months. Overall, Highly recommend this place!

Winter Getaway
6 adults stayed here Feb. 20-27. The house was exactly as advertised. Beautiful high end furnishings. Plenty of room for everyone. We had the pool heated and it was a perfect temperature. The manager was easy to work with and answered any questions we had promptly. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location, great place for families
The property was in good condition and the property manager was attentive to any correspondence. We had the pool heated as we saw that the weather was going to be cool for our stay. It was well worth it! It’s near the beach and so some of us would walk there while we’d have one main car bring all of the stuff for the kids. There’s also a nice playground there for any younger kids. Overall nice location in Marathon and the Keys.

Great place to stay!
The house was gorgeous and in a great location. Everything was high quality and in great condition. I was highly impressed by the response of property manager during our stay! Any questions I had she was quick to answer. Beach was 1 mile away and a nice path to use on the walk there. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a place in Marathon!

Great vacation!
We were pleasantly surprised that it was as nice as it looked online. We had 8 adults and were all very comfortable. The pool and tiki hut were awesome as well as the bikes and kayaks. It was just a short walk to beautiful sombrero beach. It was nice to not worry about bringing beach towels and pool toys. We took the kayaks out and caught mangrove snapper, grunts, & catfish right in the canal. It was a great vacation property and we hope to rent it again!

The unit was better than I expected. The location was great and the unit itself feels very new and was in immaculate condition. The tiki hut and pool put it over the top. My family spent countless hours in the pool and playing under the hut.

Upon entry, we noticed that the floors and table tops were gritty. It was very clean, just needed a good dusting. However, it was well appointed. Lighter comforters should be available. There was no blender or juicer and the electric hand mixer and the hairdryer didn't work. The living room ceiling fan didn't work but was replaced immediately. However, there was a good coffee pot. The palapa needed to be rethatched as it was fouling the pool but it was nice to have the shade. The Management Company responded promptly to our questions and concerns. Overall, it was a very nice place, it just needed a little TLC.

We chose Marathon because it's in between Islamorada (fishing) and Key West (touring) -- we were satisfied with our choice. The weather was perfect, the fishing was excellent and everybody had a great vacation. The place fit seven of us very comfortably. It was well furnished and well maintained. The management company was easy to deal with. All good!
