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!
