We had a wonderful time in Michel’s house. He always responded quickly and kindly. It has everything you need to prepare food and feels like at home , the house is very clean and comfortable. A lot of cute details and cozy blankets . It’s great to grill on the backyard with amazing canal view. Marathon is small , cute and quiet island but it has very beautiful Sombrero beach with amazing turquoise water. We definitely recommend Michael’s house and we would love to come back again . Key West now in our hearts.

We had to find a place for our group at the last minute when our Dry Tortugas Camping expedition was cancelled by hurricane Rafael, and we got so incredibly lucky to quickly find the Mermaid’s Paradise available. It was a great value for our stay: clean, well furnished and equipped, responsive hosts, refreshing pool, and manatees in the canal along the dock (The dock is on a large canal with ocean access that we didn’t get to use because of windy weather, but we would definitely rent a boat for the week next time we go back). This house is worth a trip to Marathon all on its own!

My wife and I had an amazing stay at Michel’s property! The location was perfect for our trip, and having a boat slip right behind the house made it so convenient. We were able to bring our boat and fish every day, exploring the beautiful waters of the Keys.
The pool was a great bonus, perfect for relaxing after a long day on the water. The property was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Michel was responsive and made sure we had everything we needed.
Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy the best of the Florida Keys, especially if you’re bringing a boat. We can’t wait to come back!

Awesome stay at Mermaids Paradise! Fit our two families perfectly (two couples, three teen boys, and two teen girls). Absolutely LOVE that each bedroom had its own full bathroom as this was hard to find at most other air bnb we looked at. Also LOVE that it had two master bedrooms so the couples didn’t have to argue over who got the good room. This was perfect! Very clean, new, pleasant. Will absolutely stay again and look at their other properties too. I prefer renting properties managed by property mngt companies over private owners bc it’s always been a 100x better experience so now that’s all I will rent. Thanks!

What a wonderful vacation! I cannot say enough wonderful things about our hosts and this lovely home. We had a wonderful week of celebrating family and friends and everything we needed to do that was right at our fingertips! The home was spacious and clean and comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful experience and for helping us make lasting memories!

The house is better than the pictures. The beds are very comfortable. It is a great location for your boat if you are bringing one. The pool area is fantastic with lots of activities. The cover over the porch upstairs is a great protection from the sun and rain. You can enjoy this house in any kind of Florida weather.

We really enjoyed our time at Mermaid’s Paradise. This property was new, clean, and well-appointed. We had everything we needed. It is located in Marathon, a short drive to Sombrero Beach and Islamorada. Plenty of restaurants and activities nearby. Our kids loved the pool and ping pong table. The only downside, in our opinion, was the property is across the canal from a boat storage facility. The boat storage facility has bright lights shining in the direction of Mermaid’s Paradise property through the night. The two king rooms facing this direction of the lights, were bright through the night. Mermaid’s paradise provided sleep masks but we would’ve preferred not to have to use them at all. This situation was not a deal-breaker, but those sensitive to light at night should know.
Overall, this property was very nice and in a great location on Marathon.

Terrific house for both comfort and convenience! It is a lovely place on the water across from a marina with a fabulous outdoor living space for pure enjoyment- ping pong, corn hole, swimming, smart TV….and relaxing.
“Mermaid House” is located in a row of a few multiple rental homes, and currently there is a large construction project ongoing directly across the street that created quite a bit of noise as well as dust and debris blowing over most days to the backyard. This is obviously a temporary situation, dependent on the project timeline, but would have been nice to know about.
Additionally, the boat storage directly across the water has bright spotlights on all night that shine into the house, so maybe some darkening shades for those rear bedrooms or bring an eye mask.
Nevertheless, we had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the modern conveniences and central location in Marathon- we were gone exploring outdoors most days and it was a pleasure to come back to in the evenings.

We had a great time at Mermaid!! Everything was exactly as expected and more! We often commented on how well stocked the house was and how easy it was to have an amazing time. Our hosts were so communicative, kind, and helpful- we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you Michel and Kim for everything!
