Amazing all around!
We had an amazing time at this house! It is in a great area. The neighborhood is quiet and great for bike rides. The house had everything we needed and more! We had so much fun fishing, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. There is so much wildlife to see. There was a manatee that would visit with us in the afternoon. We also saw iguanas, turtles, sting rays, and all kinds of fish. The pool was so nice to have as well. Sunsets on the dock were unbelievable. It truly felt like our own little private paradise! Easy check in and check out. The host was great and easy to work with. Be sure to bring bug spray for the no see ums! Overall A+++ thank you for sharing your home with us!

Choose your joy
We all found this luxurious house to be designed for comfort and privacy. When the water was too ruff for boating, we spent a lot of time on the large screened porch. The warmed pool water was a real comfort after bouncing over the waves or sitting on the porch trying to win a strategic board game. Late night gamming in the living room still left us areas for conversation, reading or sleeping. We enjoyed various local restaurants, cooking our catch and our one-time takeout pizzas. We found an abundance of kitchen essentials and numerous appliances to facilitate cooking or creating your favorite beverage. The bath towels and beach towels were plentiful. The master bedroom was so amazing that it had to be shared for the experience. One couple enjoyed the master bedroom for the first week and a different couple enjoyed the last week of the special luxury. During the daytime, we enjoyed the master bedroom’s very long wall view of the pool, back yard, dock and gulf. At the end of the day, we appreciated the truly darkening drapes that afforded us a wonderful night’s sleep. The master's access to the screened porch helped us to keep an eye on the sleeping baby. We all liked the master bathroom’s well-lit double sink vanity and we LOVED the perfect walk-in glass block shower.

Best place to stay on Marathon
My family and I absolutely loved staying at this property! We go to Marathon every year and this is hands down best property we have ever stayed at. Alida was a wonderful host and very accommodating with any needs we had. Beautiful property with gorgeous views. They offer so many amenities including kayaks and floats. Conveniently located near town with everything you would need like restaurants, grocery store, bait shops, etc. We definitely will be staying at this property again in the future!

All We Could Ask For!
Our family of six adults left this oasis of nature and relaxation with a trove of wonderful experiences to savor. The dock and bay provided innumerable opportunities for snorkeling, kayaking, swimming, and sitting on the bench to take in the beautiful view and brilliant sunsets. The property also provides a chance to see gorgeous sunrises. The house was very-well equipped; kitchen, an abundance of towels, a great variety of places to gather or to find a quiet spot of shade or sunshine to indulge in a book or a nap. The hammock was a popular choice. The pool was perfect! Warmed by the heater and the sun, it has a wonderful shelf to sit on and soak in the bliss. Beds were comfortable, laundry machines very convenient, a/c excellent, spacious rooms, quiet neighborhood-close to everything! Our entire family appreciated this incredible location that provided such a relaxing respite! Thank you, Alida!!!

Was just as advertised. Bedrooms were spacious and the home had everything that was needed. Grilling out was great, had visits with wildlife from racoon, lizzards, and sea turtles. Evenings were peaceful. Sunsets were beautiful. Will definately recommend to friends and will be back.

What an amazing property!!
I have experience with vacation renting a property and know first hand that this place was exceptional. First off the owner was completely accessible and responsive to my many questions. The property had absolutely everything you could ever need. We were celebrating a milestone birthday and there was a mixer and baking pans, which is not always available in vacation rental properties. The was a little problem with the Keurig coffee machine that was resolved in less than 24 hours with a new machine. The beds were comfortable. The place was immaculate, the linens were a high quality, we didn't need to bring beach towels, there were kayaks and pool toys...I could go on and on. The screened in porch was massive and allowed us to be outside but shaded from the sun. The dock was so long and wonderful. We enjoyed hours and hours of family time in the heated pool. My family has memories that will last a lifetime. I will recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend some time in the Florida Keys. Thank you Alida for sharing your wonderful home with my family.
