Location was great for boating. Other than that the property needs some maintenance for the asking rental price. A few examples; A/C smelled of mold, out dated furniture, all cabinets through the house are either broken or do not align/fall out of track, one of the shower door tracks where broken and a child from our party got stuck in the shower, beds were old and squeaky, screen door is broken, pool was dirty, tiki hut roof is in bad shape and leaked, pool deck needs cleaned and painted, two different colors of paint on the deck/dock at this time(looks like they ran out of paint and stopped), steps and railing to dock very unsafe, bumper rail for boats missing, only one cleat to tie off on, pool barrier fence is broken and has bungee cords attached to gate, neighboring fence is falling over, and the landscaping needs to be replaced badly!
Please have the owner/manager(vrbo) contact me about this listing….Thank you

KCB is great. I’ve rented many houses there. This one did not meet our expectations. Air vents either have black mold or are really really dirty and it is very obvious they tried to paint over this. It is also not very well stocked. We had 8 bath towels for 8 people the entire week. I found 4 old beach towels to use by the pool. No hangers to hang clothes in closets. The bedding was awful- sheets and bedspread that was nothing more than another sheet. Cabinets in kitchen old and rickety. I did like the layout of the house- big and open. The tiki hut was nice but there is no other shade by the pool. So in July the pool was too warm and unless you sat under the tiki hut that has limited seating you couldn’t sit outside.

House was ready and open when we arrived. Well equipped with all the items we needed for our week stay. Pool was perfect for the kids all day long (a shade umbrella for the afternoon sun would be a nice addition). Back yard is fenced to keep the kids and pups safely inside. Love the key colony beach area. Will stay again!

Getting to the house was convenient. The number of the rooms was perfect. However, there were several issues. The site states there are beach towels. With a property that has four bedrooms and can accommodate 12, one beach towel is not sufficient. We had to call the property manager several times with issues regarding the air conditioning in the master suite side of the house. We had issues with a toilet, a brand new dishwasher not properly draining, which was not resolved, a blocked sink which we figured out how to resolve. There were no pool floats which, again, we had to purchase and left them at the house. With all this, the house is in a great location and provided easy access to the water for the boats.

This home was the perfect size for our family of 8 plus 2 kiddos. Plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the indoor and outdoor spaces. The pool and covered cabana was a great spot to hang out during the day. The neighborhood was lovely and it was only a 5ish minute drive to get groceries, etc. We were able to walk down or ride bikes to the nearby Sunset beach. We would stay here again!

We enjoyed the property.

We had a wonderful time at this property. The house has a great layout for multiple couples. This house is in desperate need of upgrading. The couch is very old and dirty. The kitchen needs updated supplies. The pans and baking sheets were minimal, and they were old and scratched up. There were not enough bowls or eating utensils and no glass casserole dishes, no measuring cup. The cushions on the chairs and barstools were old and dirty. It could use some new bath towels. The pool had no tiles around the top edge which looked terrible. The screen door leading from the pool area is old and rusted and the screen door is broken. It is a great property, but needs full updating.
4.6
Overall, we had a wonderful time. However, the house is in need of maintenance throughout and a good deep cleaning.

The house was perfect for what we needed as far as the size and location goes. However, the pool was dirty when we arrived and no one cleaned it until Friday. There was dog hair (in clumps) everywhere in the kitchen/dining area and we did not have our pets with us. The living room furniture was less than a 1 rating, it definitely needs replacing and the entire house is in need of a lot of TLC.
We did have a wonderful week but would have like at minimum the house to be clean and the pool ready for guest.

The place was very clean, great location!! We loved it!

This was an absolutely amazing house! I was a little worried after reading some of the previous reviews, but we checked on the fridge/freezer/cleanliness before we unpacked, and everything was great. It's a rental property, so nothing is top of the line, but it was perfect for our family getaway. There were a few minor things we noted, but the owner messaged us back immediately and the property manager came out immediately to manage them. We will definitely be back!

As advertised, bedrooms, bathrooms, linens, kitchen supplies, outdoor supplies were good. House was neat and tidy and generally clean. It worked very well for the 8 of us that stayed there and the functions that we attended.
One major issue was that the pool filter system had a leak that prevented the pool from staying full. It was a problem that that had existed for awhile which was disappointing in that it had not been fixed. We kept the water hose running to keep the pool full.
The dishwasher upper rack fell off, and the were several kitchen cabinets/drawers that needed wiping out.
The house maintenance contact fixed the dishwasher and we heard him speaking with the property manager that it was time, past time, to fix the pool.
Overall, we were OK with our choice with no regrets and we do hope the manager takes action on the pool and any future maintenance more timely.

Enjoyed this family friendly space.... Great location for fishing, snorkeling and connecting as a family.
Bikes were available for rides.
Note to management to help future guest: Fridge looks brand new like it was just replaced but may need to be serviced. It did not seem as cold as it should and it made very little ice.

We were a family of 6 celebrating my Mom’s 80th birthday party. We were seeking a location that would allow us to visit all of the Keys. This home did allow us to do that. However, the home is filthy. We found dust balls in the bedrooms on right side of home. If any furniture was moved, you could tell areas not cleaned for quite awhile. Floors need professional machine clean. Our bare feet were pitch black. We decided best to wear socks or shoes when inside. Living room and bedroom furniture is outdated, dirty, uncomfortable. We used sheets on couches due to how dirty we found their condition. All pilllows provided need to be thrown out and replace with new ones as the ones provided were dirty, stained, and past their usefulness as pillows. But the worst problem is the air conditioner or lack there off. We did rent at a very hot time of year, but the 3 guest bedrooms are downright hot. Home needs another unit to cool that side of the house. Owner provided an industrial fan, but it did not provide relief. Also please note that there are many light fixtures and lamps with l burned out lightbulbs. Over all I think the owner needs better management. Home could be a jewel with some updating and maintenance attention.

The listing said new but It was built in 2008 and I don’t think it has been update since then. So I was disappointment that it needed so much work. Great location. Love KCB. If you come just to fish it would be perfect but we don’t. A few of the updates and work needed. You have to play with the dishwasher door to get it to work ( per host). The kitchen Faucet did not work. (Host put black tape on it) worked sometimes after that. Ice maker made ice but would not dispense. Upon arrival the Fire alarm battery had to be replaced because of the warning noise that the battery was dead. Pool decorative stones were falling off and in to the pool. The cover was missing on the vacuum hole in the pool. It would Suck your skin in and leave a bruise (glad we had no small children). Screen porch furniture was stained and had holes. Master shower was nice but did work right. With updated it would be perfect.

Amazing get away for the entire family!
Key Colony has been a favorite for our family for several years! This house was perfect for our family. Very roomy! Great dockage for our boat! Plenty of parking! Pool was great after a day of fishing. We will stay here again!

Beautiful home in Key Colony Beach
Overall our rental experience was excellent. This home was the ideal lay out for our multigenerational group with separate bedroom and bathroom areas for each couple along with a large living area and kitchen for meals and gatherings. The 12th Street location is superb with Sunset Park within a short walking distance and open water just a quick boat ride away. With regard to the other not so favorable reviews about cleanliness I’d say it was not perfect but you are in the Keys , be happy! If anything the cleanliness was not the problem, the furnishings are comfortable but showing signs of wear and tear. (We made it work but the living room pull out sofa is definitely in need of replacement.)

Reviews Are Accurate
The location is PERFECT! By boat, minutes to the ocean, short trip through the Vaca Cut to the bay, gas dock and bait shop right across from the exit of the canal. Bait freezer and a second full size fridge/freezer in the garage. Quiet neighbors, beautiful neighborhood. Layout of the home was PERFECT, 3 full size couches in the living room, dining table sat 8, ideal for our 2 families of 4. Sleeping arrangements were ideal, 3 king size beds in 3 bedrooms and 2 twin beds in the 4th. Absolutely ideal for the 8 people we had. Large pool deck, large pool, tiki hut, cleaning table,…. EVERYTHING you want in a property in the Keys,….. however.
DIRTY. Dead cockroaches on the floor when we arrived. Palm debris floating in the pool. Hair and dirt on the floor inside the screened lanai. Visible dirt/smudges on the dining table and countertops. Random items all over the back yard, bait containers, fishing poles, garbage,…. We spent the first several hours cleaning the house, organizing furniture and tidying up.
When deciding on which property to rent, this is honestly what I expected. I told the second family who joined us what all the reviews said,…. Everything is ideal, but it is dirty, and they were right. Not sure what the cleaning fee we were required to pay went to.
In summary, it is the perfect “set up”, but you have to expect and be willing to deal with other peoples mess.

Having read some of the recent reviews, I was concerned about the cleanliness of the house, but the property was immaculate upon our arrival. It smelled clean when we first entered the house. This was our family's first visit to Marathon Key, and this house was an excellent choice for us. It would be nice if the kitchen had more cooking tools, but that would be my only critique. The pool was even heated, which I did not know before our arrival, so that was a welcome plus. The layout of the house is great and the Master Bedroom is on its own side of the house, so that was nice for me and my wife. If you are planning a trip to Marathon and you are looking for a 4 bedroom, 3 bath house, look no further. This is the place for you. Also, the guy who helps take care of the place, lives nearby, so that was very helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

A great vacation home, especially if you are looking for a spacious home that gives plenty of sleeping and living space. I just returned after a weeks stay with my family and our friends family. 10 people total ages 13 to adult. Great location! House had everything we needed. We fished off the dock and caught lots of fish, went swimming, grilled fresh seafood, it was awesome! We read reviews before arriving and noticed comments about needing a deep cleaning, we found the house clean and ready for our arrival. The pools pump was not working, and we were not able to get a reply from the manager about it. We ended up cleaning it each day and it was just fine to use. A great vacation home - not everything was high end but perfect for what we needed. Would go back for sure and recommend!

I loved the size of this property. We had 8 people and all slept comfortably there. The house could still use a good cleaning and in need of updating some things such as the counter chairs and chair pads were very stained. The cleaning people had to come back to do some cleaning of mold in the bathrooms and clean/fill the pool. Once the pool was attended to it was very enjoyable to have. The pool does leak water each day and definitely needs to be fixed. We didn't want to leave food on the counters as there is an ant problem. With some updates and cleaning this would be an amazing property. We did enjoy our stay but just want them to be aware of what we saw upon arrival. Once called, they were prompt in coming to the house to address issues.

This is a good from a far kind of house. Looks great but has a bit of a frat house vibe in the end. From old shabby linens to bent forks to every knob, door, faucet needing a bit of love- it was just a 4/5 for me. It was big and had lots of things to make life a bit easier, it was also run down and in need of some upgraded basics and about 2 days of general repairs and upkeep. I loved the area and would recommend the house but again, it was just good from afar

Great location, close to everything. House needs a DEEP cleaning and has been mentioned in numerous reviews after looking back. We had to clean the bathrooms, wash the towels that looked dingy, lots of black hairs all around. The kitchen had bugs crawling on countertops and in microwave which caused us to have to throw food away cause bugs got into stuff on counter tops. There are lots of bug traps placed around but may need a good exterminator. The dishwasher does not work so we did dishes by hand all week. The baseboards and edges of flooring are dirty and not even swept. The pool was dirty I called on Wednesday to find if anyone was coming out to clean it and someone came out that day but not thinking skimmer on pool is working cause pool was dirty again. There are cigar butts all around outside. It’s ashamed the property is not kept in better clean condition with customers paying 275.00 to have it cleaned, I am open to a call from owner to speak about our trip. Hoping this review is taken seriously cause it is a nice house but who wants to come on vacation and have to clean before you can use things. Hoping to hear from owner I have pictures if you would like to see
