From check in to check out we had a great experience! The host was very responsive the entire stay. The home was beautiful and comfortable. Two of the rooms are connected where you have to walk to the back room through the middle room but to was never an issue for us!
The kitchen had anything you might need and the ac was cold in the house! A plus for us was fans in the bedrooms! We love having fans!
The outdoor living area was super nice to have. We enjoyed many evenings out under the tiki! We also were able to park our boat in the canal which was super convenient!
You will love this home!

The Starfish House was a perfect size and layout for our family group. We had 5 adults and two young boys. Key Colony was a great location and we brought our own boat down to keep at the dock which was a huge convenience. The owners were beyond helpful and helped make our stay as hassle free as possible. The Cabana Club pool and beach were very convenient when the boys wanted to just play on a beach and jump in a pool. (TRY the fruit popsicles from the food bar!!!) The boys loved fishing off the dock first thing in the morning and last thing in the afternoon. Two huge manatees came by our last afternoon right up to the dock to say hi. Plenty of parking for two vehicles and a boat trailer. We are already planning when we can come back.

property was very clean and nice ,our comments would be NO exhaust fans in bathrooms,hot water taking a very long time to reach faucets lack of water pressure in showers and couches need replaced [sitting for a while you just keep sinking,not much bottom support}
10.0 / 10.0
We enjoyed sitting by the canal and watching the pelicans. The cabana club was great, we enjoyed the beach and the pool. Key colony and Marathon key were both lovely, with plenty of wonderful restaurants. You do have to go through one bedroom to get to the second bedroom, which was an issue at times, but other than that it was a lovely home and we would definitely consider returning!

We enjoyed our one week stay. The property was clean and in excellent condition. The property manager was very prompt in reacting to some minor problems that we encountered (dealing with supplies at the house) but nothing that was a significant problem. Overall we would stay again and probably will.

One of the best rentals we’ve stayed at since our family started visiting the keys in 2010. We usually come down in august for lobster season. This year part of our group stayed at the property with the young kids. Perfect distance to the cabana club and for our diving/fishing group a short ride to make it offshore. Our host was fantastic in terms of communication. The house was clean, cold air in the rooms and spacious for the family. The tiki hut was a main attraction in watching sunsets. The starfish house was everything my family needed as a getaway and will definitely be one we look for first when booking next year.

Great property and great overall experience! Jennifer was very prompt in responding. The description was accurate. Plenty of space for our family of 6 (9 - 15 year old children). Deep water canal is convenient to open Atlantic waters and fishing, close (3 min walk) to small golf course and tennis/pickle ball courts, and included access to community pool, beach, and tiki bar/restaurant. Nice community to walk - felt very safe. Close to restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, and activities. Marathon does not disappoint with lots to do. We will plan to try to stay at this house again.

The property was very nice. One bedroom is connected to another bedroom and requires you to walk through to access the shared bathroom. This was the only thing I would have changed about the home. Everything was clean and Jennifer was a pleasure to work with.

I had great communication with Jennifer. She was prompt to respond to questions and concerns. The Starfish house looks just like the pictures. It was very tastefully decorated with a beachy vibe. There was plenty of room for our party of 7. The cabana outside is key for keeping cool in the shade. The Cabana Club membership is a nice added bonus. We enjoyed our stay. The only thing to complain about, is we had to leave.

The house is much bigger than it appears in the pictures. I was shocked at the size of the living area. Plus hats off to the cleaning crew. Not a spec of dust or dirt anywhere. Way cleaner than the Marriott's we stayed in on the trip there.

Absolutely Beautiful!
This has been the best family trip!! First, Jennifer responded very quickly to every question we had! Even the ones we had a week before we arrived!
This home is beautiful! The tiki hut out back allows you to enjoy the view under the shade! The kayaks we fun for a little evening ride around the canals and inlet.
We had plenty of space for our family of 7!
Sunset park is a nice evening walk from here!
The pool and cabana club, where we had a great time, is just around the corner!
I would highly, highly recommend the Starfish! There are many so amenities, it is cozy and we hope to stay again in the future!

Beautifully decorated canal front home!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Starfish house! The location was great! We are missing the beautiful turquoise waters already!
The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We loved the outside patio area and even saw some manatees right off the dock!
We enjoyed having access to the pool and beach at the Cabana Club. We also loved that we could dock the boat that we rented in the backyard. We had a good time snorkeling and fishing in the area! We hope to stay again another time!

Great property
Had a great time visiting Key Colony again. The house was gorgeous and had most of what we needed. The house and property looked exactly like that photos. We had really good communication with the property manager... Jennifer was wonderful. A few things about the property that weren't ideal, but not big problems... I cook a lot and would've liked more substantial cooking utensils in the kitchen. Plastic//rubber spatula's, etc. don't work well in a hot skillet or with heavy meat patties, steak, etc. Ended up using the grill utensils which were big and a little awkward but got the job done. There might've been one, but couldn't find a mixer in the kitchen (found a blender but no mixer). There was a minor plumbing issue in one of the two bathrooms. Since it was just the two of us, it was almost a non-issue. We notified Jennifer and she's addressing the issue. Overall a great property and good choice for us.

Perfect Location on Key Colony
Great property in a perfect location. It suited our family of 6 well along with my wife's parents. This is one of those properties that definitely deserves a 5 star review. It pains me to give it 5 stars only because that could lead to it becoming more popular and not being available next time I want to rent it, but they definitely deserve the 5 stars in my opinion. The owner has great communication skills and the property has everything we needed for some relaxing family time.
The cabana club access was a bonus to be able to enjoy the pool and private beach.
I was a little worried about parking before I got there but found that my 29 ft boat fit just fine on the dock and there was ample parking out front for my trailer, truck and wife's car as well. There is a comfy tiki hut and table on the back area along with bait freezer, and kayaks. Thanks for making our trip a great success!

Family vacation success
Stayed here with my wife, brother in law, sister in law, and my two and four year olds. House is very clean and easily accessible. If you are bringing smaller children you may need to childproof a little when you arrive. Pool access was wonderful and the ability to dock a boat out front is really nice. Overall a win!

Perfect getaway spot
Everything was perfect & better than described. There was a little of everything, very spacious & felt at home. The best was the back yard when the tiki hut, Kayaks & daily visitors down the canal. Will definitely be back soon. Jennifer was easy to reach for quick questions.

Quiet Keys Stay
This downstairs unit of the starfish house was just as described. The unit was clean, beds comfortable, and the kitchen fairly well equipped. Many thoughtful details at this rental to help make guests comfortable. The outdoor area was the highlight of this rental. Kayaks to use, a tiki hut to sit under in the shade and a canal to fish in and watch boats come in or dock your own. The evenings are so beautiful and breezy here. The cabana club is strict and has a lot of rules but the staff was friendly to us. My kids enjoyed being here nearly every day. Drinks and food are not astronomically priced. Plenty of snacks and ice cream available before 5pm and food available until 6. My kids were always sad to leave at 7 when they closed but this was a natural ending time for the day to go eat dinner and relax for the evening at home. The beach area is just so-so, but we knew when coming to the keys we were not coming for the beaches. I recommend driving and parking for cabana club or biking. Walking was a little long. Sombrero beach is about 17 min away. Turtle Hospital 13 min away. Dolphin Research Center 11 min away (heavily recommend). Bahia Honda state park 27 min away. Key west about 75 min away. Key colony is a very quiet community off the main drag of hwy 1. We appreciated this. We like a more relaxed and low key feel to our vacations. Still a few little restaurants and shops available. Jennifer was amazing to communicate with. Prompt, clear, and helpful. She resolved any and all minor issues that came up as quickly and as well as she could.

GREAT HOUSE BETTER LOCATION
Great house located 20 yards from the canal. Super easy to access your boat, and easier access to the gulf, and the atlantic. Located at the end of the canal also is big plus. Jennifer was outstanding answered every question we ask, and she responded almost immediately. I would recommend this house and, Jennifer without any hesitation. We are and will definitely stay there agian.

Clean and beautiful canal
We stayed here as a family of six and had more than enough room. The space was clean and the canal was awesome. The kids fished daily from our backyard. Manatees swam up one night and hung out with us for an hour. One street over was a playground and park area with bocce ball and we taught the kids to play. Added bonus when we wanted a quiet night in. The host was responsive but respectful and left us alone unless we asked her a question. Would stay here again.

Great get away
Great location! There’s even an urgent care less than 5 min away! Enjoyed the Cabana Club! Park and basketball courts a very short walk. Kids loved it. Enjoyed having the dock for a boat we rented. Short drive to many good restaurants and the grocery store! Quiet and peaceful! Just what we needed. Marianela was super helpful and always very responsive!

Perfect vacation
This house was so cozy and clean. Decorated just like a little beach pad and had everything we needed to get started. It was inviting and close to all the "keys hotspots". The owner was so easy to work with. We loved the back patio and enjoying the sun as well as heading up to the cabana club - what a great perk!

Great Place to Stay in Marathon!
I’ve rented plenty of properties around the Keys, but this has to be one of my favorites. Everything is renovated and new inside with very nice decor. The access to the main waterway is quick and easy, and the dock can hold a good sized boat. Rooms were very nice and the communication with the owner was very helpful and nice. All in all a great vacation home.

The perfect home away from home.
We stay at this property every year and would never stay anywhere else. We rent a boat that is in our "backyard" canal and the location is PERFECT. Marianela is so kind and generous and the house is absolutely picture perfect. We can't wait to go back every year.
