We have stayed 3 out of the 4 years in KCB and LOVE the area. This house was our favorite out of the 4 years. It had everything we needed for our 3 couples. The house was clean & fully stocked from the kitchen to the pool. It had a good dock for our 28 foot boat with easy access to the Atlantic & Vaca cut. We enjoyed the view, screened in porch and the big, clean pool. Check in was a breeze and Melissa was very accommodating and responded quickly. It was so nice to have restaurants within walking distance. We would definitely rent this home again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/60fd2e2b-e961-42b6-91bb-eeb5a927e710-1748440999844.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joy L.

We have stayed in a lot of place in Marathon and this one is our favorite! Very well stocked, lots of space for everyone to enjoy, boat dock and cleaning station are great! Fishing in the bay was better than in the canal. Easy access to vaca cut. Pool was a great size for floating around and very private. We will be back! ##### Christi O.

The house is spacious, both bedrooms and baths are large and updated. The living area offers commanding views of the water and the porch makes morning coffee and evening cocktails relaxing. The weather wasn't the best but we were able to enjoy the pool area (expansive) and did make into the pool on occasion. The house is well stocked with anything you could want and location is hard to beat. A perfect welcome to KCB! ##### Phyllis G.

This was our first time in the keys. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. Location was perfect because we wanted to be able to visit all of the major keys and we were able to do that without spending too much time in the car. Location was perfect because we felt like we were part of the community of Key Colony Beach. Very welcoming community. Location was perfect because we were able to see dolphins every day from our house, as well as a stingray, manatee and a bonnet head shark. We had the most amazing time and the house was clean, the host was very easy to work with and we would absolutely stay here again and again. ##### Bobbi S.

There were 3 couples and we had plenty of room and fun things to do there. The pool was great, plenty of towels! There was even a karaoke machine that we had fun with by the pool. Really enjoyed the Margarita machine (that made a great fresh fruit, slushy margarita that was so nice to have by the pool)! Plenty of fishing poles. I caught a baby sand shark- yikes that the guys let go -lol. Beds were comfortable and the showers —- they were awesome. Had fun riding the bikes around and going for walks in the peaceful area of Key Colony. The only drawback was the basement room which had a musty smell. Overall a wonderful place to stay!!!! ##### Terrie B. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Brenna C. 2 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### February Break Communication before, during and after our stay was wonderful. Missy was very prompt with her replies and thorough with answers. The pool was very nice just extremely deep so harder for the little ones to use. It needed a little TLC, but nothing major and the pool crew was there on our first day. We used every bed the house offered, and every bathroom. It was nice having three bathrooms, but they were on the smaller side and with the style sink, lacked counter space. The showers were neat with almost every shower spray option imaginable. Slightly tricky to operate at first, but once we got the hang of it it was no big deal. We loved the ice machine on the porch. It was very convenient for coolers and beach days, and the poolside fridge was nice as well. We do wish the listing had more details of what amenities were available so we could have packed lighter (snorkel gear, outdoor speaker, bikes and paddle board). Another thing not listed but the manager did disclose to use prior to our visit was the third bedroom on the ground level only has an entrance from the outside of the house. The location of the house was perfect. Right in the middle of the Keys, in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of shops and activities nearby to enjoy. Overall our trip was very enjoyable. ##### Brenna C.

If I have to be picky, I'd say the screened in porch needs some repair. ##### Chris A.

Great pool and porch areas as well as ample parking. The best thing about this property was Gail the property manager. She was available 24-7 and her goal was to make sure our group was happy. We will definitely stay again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### philip c. 28 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Marathon Great views and boat slip, house was great and location even better. ##### philip c.

Key Colony Beach was a GREAT location and the house was exactly as advertised. We didn't even have any room in cabinets for things we brought to cook with as the house had everything. The pool was clean and warm. The views were awesome! Make sure you head over to Sunset Beach for sunset each evening, it is a special treat. We HIGHLY recommend this property. ##### Stephen H. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cheryl W. 22 Feb 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Loved the location, disappointed many things broken or did not work. The house location was great. Overall the house was great. House really needed to be cleaned better especially floors and outdoor areas. Many things did not work or needed repair . . . Keurig, toaster oven, refrig ice machine, outdoor umbrella, outdoor firepit, sometimes cold showers, kayaks not in best shape, outdoor kitchen refrig. The property just needed some TLC it showed that someone did not check every thing to ensure it was working or just working properly. ##### Cheryl W.

Just returned from a week stay. We didn't realize how awesome the location would be. Very quiet and lots of walking/biking paths. The property was as described. It is an older home that has had lots of upgrades/renovations. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking/eating in. The grill was awesome to have as well. Great water pressure in the showers. The pool area was great. Deep pool - we had the heat turned on for our stay. We spent several afternoons lounging at the pool watching boaters come and go. Restaurants within walking distance were a little limited but the Key Colony Inn restaurant is fabulous. We ate at Island Fish Co. several times. Triton's will deliver as well. We would def rent this property again. Any communications we had with Missy were prompt and pleasant. We didn't realize what a gem we were renting when we booked. ##### shannon c.
