Write to me with any questions, under the MESSAGE OWNER SECTION and I will be happy to chat with you. This single family home on large lot and cul-de-sac street has been totally renovated with new everything in 2010. Tiled floors throughout, large granite counter top, stainless steal appliances, decorative lighting, modern bathrooms, and a large wrap around balcony with comfortable patio furniture surrounded by romantic white curtains giving you a true resort feel. The home is open, bright, and warm. New leather sectional sofa with 3 recliner (2018). Better then my own home! You can watch all the movies on a high definition 65 inch flat screen T.V. with surround sound. Kitchen area has a desk area where you can connect your computer to High Speed wireless internet (Fee Wifi) for those days where you just got to get some work done. The master bedroom has a king size bed (firm memory foam mattress), flat screen TV, and small private bathroom. The second bedroom sleeps 4 with one queen, top twin XL bunk on top, and twin XL trundle at bottom. Master has streaming T.V. . The home is on a deep canal ocean side (no issue for large boats), 75 foot private concrete dock with electricity and water. Rental includes dockage for ONE large boat. Boat lift on property is not available for renters. The home also has a chain link fence giving you peace of mind that outdoor toys are secure as well as security camera on boat slip area and front parking/entrance (although not needed, its very safe here). Note, no other security cameras as your privacy is respected. You can relax on the hammock under the coconut palms trees while the others in your party clean the catch of the day on our large fish cleaning table with it's own knife sharpener. Home is walking distance to everything you can need (deli, liquor store, movie theater, Kmart, Winn Dixie, Publix, Walgreens, Home Depot, and Park! Perfect for teens that can't drive but like their independence walking or riding bike (bike not included in rental) by themselves to the park, movies, or shops. Family reunion? Inquire about nearby homes which are also available for rental.

Although Marathon is located about midway on the keys chain, it has just about anything you would need during your stay, including marathon airport (charter flights from Miami) and hospital in case you need medical attention during your stay. Key west is just 45 minutes away. One of the best surprises when i bought this home was Sombrero Beach. This beach is only 5 minutes away by car and maybe 15 minute bike ride. Sombrero beach has white sand, coconut palms, private clean bathrooms, two volleyball courts, children play area with grass, barbecue grills and picnic tables, and the beautiful view of the ocean. A must visit. My teen (adult now) use to love marathon community park. Teens will love to try out the cable wake boarding park (no boat needed) and also the new Surf Style Flow Rider (just like in the cruise ships)! If you want to take a dip in a pool just go to sunset grill and raw bar where they have one of the largest heated poosl in the keys overlooking the ocean at the seven-mile bridge (free if you eat there). Watch the sunset from here while at the bar listening to margaritaville. Enjoy some of the best fishing and diving available in the world. Sombrero reef is 4.5 miles away from our dock. It offers a spectacular reef and is just minutes away by boat ride. The seven-mile bridge is probably the premiere location for the greatest game fish in Florida waters, the tarpon. The best part is that you will get top quality at a rate that can’t be beaten.

Our host enabled us to feel very much at home during our stay. She was available via text message with any questions or concerns. What stood out the most was the accuracy of the photos, an exact match upon entering the home. The home is in close proximity to many area amenities, walking distance to restaurants, shopping, and a nearby Publix for groceries. The beds are wonderfully comfortable! Outdoor area as well is spacious with a spa! You will find Sombrero beach a close drive. Can be crowded at times. Other beaches are a short distance away. Use the area guide the host leaves for guests as she suggests many good places to eat. Sooo many are available! The only negative we found is the road and airport noise.

Great place to stay. Very clean. My husband and I enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after long days of kayaking and fishing. Loved the reclining sectional in the living room, very comfortable, as well as the bed. Mariella was easy to contact and very accommodating when we were having trouble booking our dates. We would definitely stay here again.

Piece of paradise!

We enjoyed our week stay. The house is exactly described, the communication was phenomenal. Just about everything you can think of you may need or forgot, Mariela has already thought of it and has it on hand. We brought our boat and she had already told us which marina to use, which is two blocks away- could not have been any easier other than their hours of operation. Highly recommend and we would gladly return. Thanks for sharing your amazing home.

This property was perfect for our family of four. Everything was exactly as listed and Mariella has literally thought of everything you could possibly need. Location was perfect to explore all of the Keys in both directions. Great food and tons to do in the area. If you’re on the fence, book it, you’ll be glad you did!
