Neighborhood

The house sits in a prime Marathon location on a clear-water canal, offering the perfect blend of water access and convenience. The deep-water channel provides quick access to both the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, with several marinas nearby for fueling up before a day of fishing or island hopping.

Water enthusiasts will love the location - numerous waterfront bars and restaurants are just 5-10 minutes away by boat. The calm waters are perfect for paddleboarding, and you can kayak across Boot Key Harbor and down Sisters Creek for a scenic route directly to Sombrero Beach. The area is known for its excellent fishing opportunities, whether you're interested in reef fishing in the Atlantic or targeting tarpon in the Gulf waters.

By land, you're perfectly positioned to enjoy Marathon's best attractions. Sombrero Beach, one of the Keys' finest beaches, is just minutes away. The neighborhood provides easy access to local favorites like the Turtle Hospital, Florida Keys Aquarium Encounters, and Crane Point Museum & Nature Center. The famous Seven Mile Bridge, an engineering marvel offering stunning ocean views and great fishing spots, is also nearby.

The area features a variety of dining options, from casual seafood shacks to upscale waterfront restaurants. Several shopping centers, grocery stores, and marine supply shops are within easy reach. For boaters, the location couldn't be better - surrounded by marinas, boat rentals, fishing charters, and dive shops. The central Marathon location also makes it convenient to explore both the Upper and Lower Keys, with Key West just an hour's drive away.

The neighborhood itself is peaceful and well-maintained, characteristic of the laid-back Keys lifestyle while offering all modern conveniences. Whether you're planning a fishing adventure, a family beach day, or a romantic sunset cruise, this location provides the perfect starting point for your Florida Keys experience.

Wonderful place open and peaceful .The people were beyond responsive and helped in every way possible can’t say good enough about them. Would stay at this or one of their places anytime. The one minor problem is the marina next-door. They have very aggressive, lighting as for Mermaids Paradise two thumbs up

Luxury Seaside Escape ~ Pool ~ Dock ~ Scenic Views

Family trip of 8, including 3 Grandparents. House was exactly what was shown, absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed fishing off the dock, even though only caught some small fish….was great to have a line in! The pool was perfect temperature and we enjoyed almost every day, along with the outdoor kitchen and bar. Some fun pool and corn hole tournaments as well. One night was perfect we had dinner on the 2nd floor terrace. So grateful for the elevator, especially for the grandparents and using the bring all of our stuff upstairs.
Michel was very responsive leading up to the vacation and during with any questions we had.
We look forward to another trip, hoping next year!

It's a beautiful house, clean, and nicely decorated. The pool and foosball table outside were appreciated. We also enjoyed a nicely equipped kitchen and outdoor grill. The only negative was that the dock did not have a ladder to allow us to access the boat we rented for the week.

The house is clearly brand new and very modern. The kitchen was one of the nicest and best equipped we have experienced. The pool although not very large was perfect for our grandson and having it heated was a wonderful luxury. Michel and team are incredibly responsive no matter what the communication concerns, they respond within a couple of minutes - before, during, and after a stay. Highly recommend Michel and this location!

Amy

The house was luxurious--tall ceilings, breezy, well-appointed, light-filled, with every amenity you could want. Our family loved the very clean pool and hot tub. There is a large outdoor kitchen and grill, and living space nearby with a pool table and fire pit (we didn't use either but older kids would love them). The canal view provided gorgeous sunsets from the porch, plus lots of bird-watching, as well as dolphin-sighting!
With stores and restaurants within 3 miles, it was easy to get all provisions. The location allowed us to easily go on a nearby snorkeling expedition to Sombrero Reef, and a trip to Key West took 90 minutes at most. We spent a day at stunning Bahia Honda beach and explored other local beaches for shells and sponges. All 3 generations loved the house and wished we could stay longer! Michel and staff were very responsive, helpful, and courteous. They handled every question and concern with care. An excellent all around stay!
