Overall we enjoyed the home and it fit our 4 adults and 4 children (ages 8-12) with plenty of room. Pool was great to keep cool and we did plenty of fishing off the dock. The house has been a little used and abused as some rentals do. The pictures make it appear a little nicer than in person. I’d recommend some better quality bedding/sheets and pool towels. ##### Katie G.

We had 10 adults ranging in age from 24 to 80 and fit comfortably. This property is close to shops and very relaxing with the pool and canal. We were able to park our boat right outside of the yard and house was equipped with a cleaning table and freezer for our catch. A drawback was that it took 40 minutes to get through the canal out to sea, but we knew this before we rented and I believe the owner has priced this rental with that in mind. We did not use the BBQs as they had not been cleaned prior to our arrival. Otherwise, our stay was great and very relaxing! ##### Tracey P. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael A. 2 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great home in a great location We stayed for a week in Marathon at this beautiful 4 bedroom home. Location: The location of the home is really perfect. It sits close enough to the main road that you can walk to the grocery store and far enough away that you dont hear the traffic. Its also on a nice walking path that leads you to Sombrero Beach. We also loved that the drive to Key West was only about an hour or so.Outdoor area: We spent a large majority of our time at the house enjoying the beautiful outdoor space. There is a nice deck off of the main living space. Underneath there is a nice shaded area if you need a break from the sun. There is also a nice heated pool, deck chairs, and a hammock. And you get to enjoy this space while watvhing the boats go by on the canal. Also got to see some manatees lounnging in the water.Indoor space: The indoor area was perfect for us. There is a bedroom and bathroom downstairs and then 3 bedrooms and 2 baths upstairs. The kitchen was nice and had everything we could possibly need. Overall this is a fantastic property and I highly recommend staying here if your travels bring you to Marathon. (I did not mention it above but the hosts were fantastic as well). ##### Michael A. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Noel V. 1 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good Location - Plenty of Room for Family Vacation This was our first time to Marathon and we really enjoyed the location of the property. It was very close to the grocery store, shopping, restaurants, and Sombrero Beach! The home is beautifully decorated and comfortable. There was plenty of room for our 6 person family and our two dogs loved it too! The only reason I am giving a 4-star review is because I agree with a previous review there are some areas of the home that need to be addressed to make this a 5-star property. The day we arrived the grass in the backyard was overgrown. We had to contact the owner to have it mowed. It was not cut until Monday afternoon which hindered us from using the pool/backyard area during the first two days of our vacation. The owner was very responsive which we appreciated. Our issue was why was it not scheduled to be done before our arrival. Also in the backyard, there is plenty of seating but the 3 lounge chairs there are not in good condition. One was ripped and it was a safety issue. There are several issues inside that need to be addressed as well. In the kitchen, there was no sink stopper so it made it difficult to wash dishes. The dishwasher had no cover for the buttons so we were unsure what setting we were using. The lock on the primary bathroom was gone and the light/fan in the same bathroom was missing, which were both very inconvenient. The owner is very responsive so we are sure he will address these minor issues to help this property to be perfect! ##### Noel V.

Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Caroline P. 23 Nov 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We arrived at this lovely house and spent a week there with our family. The house is spacious, the bedrooms are large with bathrooms, and the living areas are well laid out. The pool is nice, even if the water was a little cold, and there are plenty of games and chairs to relax on. The house is very well located on the canal and close to the beautiful Sombrero beach. However, we did encounter a few issues upon arrival: the terrace was dirty and some things weren't working. We reported this to the owner, who took care of it, but unfortunately after we left. ##### Caroline P.

To our surprise it actually has two king beds instead of just one like we were expecting. The only negative thing I can really say is the grill and flat top outside were in pretty bad shape ##### Steven B.

It does need some sprucing up especially outside space which has accumulated a lot of items that have been left by previous vacationers. The grill and flattop need attention. Enjoyed our stay but property needs some work. ##### Joe M.
