The property managers were extremely responsive to our concerns/requests. The views were beautiful and neighbors were friendly - a very dog friendly community. Enjoyed seeing the manatees in the docks. Property could use updating in some areas but it had just sold and new owners plan to improve some of the amenities.
This was our first trip to the Florida Keys, and Indigo Reef was a fantastic place to stay. The location was perfect, and the property was incredibly spacious, comfortable, and well-maintained. The included boat slip was a huge bonus and ideal for anyone bringing their own boat or renting one during their stay.One of our favorite features was the beautiful pool, which was a great place to relax after a day of adventure. We also loved the balconies off both the living room and the master bedroom. They provided the perfect spot to sit, unwind, and enjoy the gorgeous sunsets each evening.The home had everything we needed for a wonderful vacation. The kitchen was especially well-equipped, with all the essentials and even a cast-iron skillet that was perfect for cooking the fresh mahi and tuna we caught during our fishing charter.The only suggestions we would make are regarding the TVs. The master bedroom is very large, and the TV felt a bit small for the space, making it difficult to see from bed on the few evenings we turned in early. The TV in the kids' room appeared to be outdated and was not working during our stay. There was a DVD player available, but no DVDs provided to use with it.Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend Indigo Reef to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located place to enjoy everything the Florida Keys have to offer. We made some amazing memories and would happily stay here again.
This is the perfect place for families and couples! House is spacious and well appointed with giant yard for kids and dogs to play. Pool and boat slip make this the ideal place to stay in the Keys!
This property is as listed and was a great location for our Keys vacation. We had plenty of room for our family of 5 and enjoyed the pool, our porch and grounds. I gave it a 4 for cleanliness because we had to restock our own toilet paper, trash bags and paper towel.

Wonderful!
We loved the location and cleanliness of the condo and common areas. Having our own dock for the boat was great! We will be planning our stay for next year soon!

Wonderful resort
This is the third year we have stayed in Indigo Reef for school break with our son and grandsons. The condos are so comfortable, roomy and well equipped . The location of the resort is perfect...close to stores and markets, great swimming pool, canals and docks for boats and fishing, beautiful sunsets. A very nice family place with great people as your neighbors!

Wonderful vacation!!!!
The resort is beautiful!!!! Unit 47 is in the perfect location for watching the sunset. Katie was very accommodating and was a pleasure to deal with. Definitely will be going back.
This was our second year spending New Year's week in the Keys--last year in Key Largo. Indigo Reef was a wonderful resort location for our family. Beautiful lawns for kids and dogs to play, lovely pool, the boat right on the premises. The townhouse was well appointed and clean. We had such a good time we've already reserved for next year.
This unit is well stocked and in a fantastic location. The rental agent is responsive and accommodating. For those with boats, the assigned slip has a finger pier/dock and is somewhat exposed during inclement weather. We’ve been staying at Indigo for years, and these units are really great overall. They are wood frame and have started to show their age a bit, but still one of the best places to stay in Marathon.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Things have really changed and not for the better. It’s always good to run a tight ship to ensure things are maintained but the constant texts telling us what we were doing wrong was every single day. Things that shouldn’t have mattered, mattered. We’ve been coming to Indigo Reef for 7 years now and this year will probably be our last. Our unit, was horribly cleaned. As soon as we walked in there was a hook on the coffee table. All the bedroom sheets (master being the worst) had hair and stains. I had to request more blankets so I felt clean sleeping. No extra blankets in unit for pull out couch or just blankets in general. Couch was stained and ripped. This unit definitely needs a lot of TLC before I rented it out. Our host Katie was amazing and I felt bad she kept on having to relay messages back and forth between HOA and cleaners. When you are on vacation for 7 days and pay that much money, you don’t expect constant text messages of ridiculous requests. Or the feeling of filthy while staying. 2 cockroaches and small ants everywhere. I have pictures and I have them documented. We were told we would get a refund of 300 back but for the amount we payed, the unit is not worth the stay.
Indigo reef was amazing! It has such a great atmosphere where everyone hangs our together and all the kids make friends and play!
This unit has some updating that needs to be done, but the property manager was amazing and said it was all in the works! I’d definitely stay here again!
Very clean and well set up property. Right on the water w boat slips included. Nice outside grassy area for our dogs. Pool is close by, ice machine in area. Pots pans and all for cooking etc. Would 10/10 recommend staying here
We rented villa #47
It was really clean. The bedding was very comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need! We were very happy so were our teenagers grandsons. Our boat slip was right out the back door. The pool was clean and conveniently located!!
We will definitely book this villa again!
This the ideal place in Marathon for families visiting with boats or renting a boat. With a great pool and private docks you cannot beat Indigo Reef and the beautiful sunsets.
As a property it was nice. Our unit was not cleaned properly, the sofa bed was full of dust and the sheet were never removed. The refrigerator was not cleaned we had to clean it ourselves.
Great place. We were with our family 8 in all. Place and property were great. Everyone enjoyed the pool. Went biking everyday. Only thing wrong were the squeaky twin beds. All in all great place would recommend it.
We had a great time while staying at Indigo Reef #47. The unit was very clean and nicely furnished. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable but did make a lot of noise as you moved on them. The location is perfect, especially if you bring/rent a boat. The fishing is great, the reefs and sandbars are beautiful. We love the pool and the views from Indigo Reef. Overall, we had a great stay and I would recommend this unit to others.

Marathon stay
Great location in Marathon, nice protected docks for boats. Check in was a lock box that we were supposed to be emailed the code but weren't. Had a difficult time getting a hold of property manager. When we finally got in to unit found it had not been cleaned after previous renters vacated. Property manager made good and gave us a nights refund for the trouble which was fair compensation for our inconvenience.
The unit itself was very nice and comfortable and would recommend.
