The ocean views from our home are breathtaking! Steps from your front door you’ll find a place to dock your boat and a pier for watching the fish swim by or to throw a line in and try your luck at fishing. The dock is a great place to jump in and cool off! A neat place to snorkel too, but doesn’t compare to snorkeling out on the reefs. There are even steps down into the water and an outdoor shower to rinse off.
Our home features three levels with spectacular unobstructed open water views. The rooftop deck offers space for sunbathing, enjoying the sunset and stargazing.

We have rented unit 13 two years in a row. Both times, our experience was top notch. Communication from the owners was exceptional with welcome texts and information to help us. The property is well-kept with amenities for all (pool, hot tub, fishing pier, docking for boat, chaise loungers, etc.). Without hesitation, our family would return right back to this unit again. Highly recommend!

Marathon Bay Front This was an amazing property with an incredible view. The house had everything we needed as friends and family rotated through. The owner was the BEST as he was extremely responsive to everything we asked him. We are looking forward to returning next year.

Had a wonderful stay here. Spent every morning on the deck with a coffee, and every day just hopping on the boat right from the dock in the backyard, to every evening watching the sunset. Great stay with great friends!

We enjoyed our stay greatly. We brought our boat. The location is perfect for access to both the Atlantic and bay side. The living space was comfortable and met all of our needs.

The ocean view was beautiful! There was newer living area furniture in the unit compared to the pictures of when we booked. Hot tub was also brand new. Unit was well stocked with paper products and dish/laundry soap. You only have to focus on buying food for your stay. Area was quiet compared to areas we’ve stayed in the past on Marathon. Elevator was great for luggage and groceries. Beach chairs/mats, cooler and fishing poles were in storage closet. Those were used a lot! Outside fridge and freezer was also nice for fish. We were able to have a few restaurants prepare the catches for us. Owner and his assistant were very responsive and a pleasure to work with throughout the process. The pool is small. We were gone most of the time, but enjoyed the private hot tub at night after a long day. The dock was nice for fishing. We even had a manatee come up to the dock and we fed fresh water to him. If you have a chance to go on a sunset jet ski tour, I highly recommend! That was the highlight of all of our trips down here so far.

We had a fabulous week in Marathon! The house is great, with just fantastic views of the gulf. Great location if you have a small/medium boat, or will be fishing. Central location, Easy to get to anywhere in the Keys! We went to the beaches, Key West and Bahia Honda park. Sombrero beach is nice, with great facilities, but also very crowded this time of year. Honda park is crowded also, go early. We went to coco plum too, less crowds, but not as well maintained. Key West is almost exactly an hour away, so we went for dinner twice and shopping, also went snorkeling there (honest eco tour). We spent an evening at the doghouse bar around the corner which was a good time. Do not go to KiKis on Big Pine for dinner. This was our only bad experience while we were here. The Fish House looks good, but we could never get a table without a 3 hour wait, so we went elsewhere. Marathon Bagels are good, coffee mediocre. Great business that desperately needs a bigger space and redesigned. Great sunsets if you go into Key Colony Beach with the happy retirees. The House, it was awsome that most all the little things you need are there… Laundry soap, dish soap, tp, garbage bags, towels, Coffee (thank goodness!) grill works great. I have stayed places that literally left one garbage bag and one roll of TP. Great that they don’t skimp the small stuff. If I could suggest some beach chairs? I assume they are getting to the end of the rental season… place does need some minor touchups, a solid cleaning, and maybe a new couch/bedspreads. But the view alone makes this place worth visiting!

Unit 13 was amazing, the only part that wasnt was the pool.. The pool was next to our unit, and it wasnt big enough to share with 13 units. We assumed or thought the pool was for our unit till we got there and realized we had to share it with 30+ people, so never went to the pool.

In summary, fabulous views! From the roof you get both the Atlantic and gulf. Unobstructed 180 degree gulf view. The house is great too. Everything you need to sleep comfortably, relax, cook. Space for group time and me time. Well maintained. Great host you can reach anytime promptly. And you don’t have to go to key west for groceries or good restaurants. Many nearby. But key west is accessible, too. Want to put in a plug for the nearby aquarium. Exceeded expectations. All around great location and accommodations.
