Convenient but private
This is one of the best places to stay in Marathon. It's convenient to the grocery stores, and other areas, but is very private and comfortable. The dock names it nice for getting out to fish or dive, it's only a 10 minute cruise out to the open water. The check in and check out are easiest we've ever done, and the hosts have made sure everything you need is there from kitchen needs to extra towels for the beach or pool. Yes we will definitely stay here again. Thanks for a quiet home away from home to relax and unwind.

Perfect Vacation Spot
This rental was perfect for our family of four. We came down for lobster mini season and the boat dockage was very convenient and a short ride to both the Atlantic and Gulf. The rental was clean, spacious and had everything we needed during our stay. Very comfortable and beautiful views. We can’t wait to come again!

Keys Fun with manatee sighting almost daily!
This was my 1st stay in Key Colony Beach and the rental description was very accurate, very clean and very comfortable for a mature (not so young) couple. We had everything we needed in the house and more. The internet was great and my husband worked some remotely while I explored parks near by. The pool area is completed fenced in so my dogs could be out chasing lizards for fun while I enjoyed the pool and husband cooked on the gas grill. Since its located on a canal, we rented a boat for a few days and kept it right behind the rental in the canal. There were manatees visiting almost daily and I was able to give them a drink of fresh water from the fish cleaning station. The location was a little more than a stones throw from 2 good bar/eateries. I LOVE Sparky's smoked fish dip. The wind made it very pleasant for sitting outside by canal in morning and by pool in afternoon. I took a snorkling trip to Sombrero reef. It was great with calm seas and great visibility, Highly recommend. There are 2 paddle boards and I went out a couple of times but be aware it wasn't easy to launch and retrieve as there wasn't a leash on the boards. I rigged my own with a bungee cord and managed alone and Im in my late 50's so its doable. I also rode one of the bikes a few times and it was in good condition. The hosts communication was great as well! I look forward to returning next spring!

We had a wonderful stay at this property! Very clean and comfy beds. Love the shampoos and detergents, make for less packing. Pool area is gorgeous with nice landscaping. We used the grill several times. Saw manatees the next canal over when we went for a walk. Can’t wait to go back!

We had a very nice stay in Paradise! The property was very clean and in good condition. The location was perfect for having a boat/fishing and close to several restraunts. Luis and Ayise communicated very well and were quick to respond to any concerns or issues we had. This is definitely a place we will use again. Thanks, Andrew

Great Vaca!!
Property owners were in contact the entire time which is a definite A+++ and answered any and all questions. Accommodations were great, private pool with ample pool towels, beds were amazing (best sleep in a long time), property located on canal, first day a family of manatees came for a visit. That in itself was amazing and made the trip. Convenient to Key West about 1.25hrs, restaurants and grocery stores close by, beaches about 6-10 drive. Oh and took the kayak out for a spin, really relaxing on the water. Will definitely be back. Thank you Luis and Ayise for sharing your part of paradise 🌴☀️🌴☀️🌴☀️

Piece of Paradise
This is truley a little piece of paradise! The house is very clean and well maintained. Beds are comfy, extra set of linens and Extra pillows. Fully stocked kitchen, everything you need for your stay. Having our own pool is such a bonus. We would spend our mornings exploring and our afternoons lounging by the pool. Alot of things to do in the area, from water sports, fishing, golf, mini golf, to name a few, never had to drive real far. A day trip to Key West is a must too!!! the drive is beautiful. The hosts Luis & Ayise are fabulous, they check in with you to see if there is anything you may need. The only bad thing was is that we had to leave.......We would definately stay here again when in the area.

We had a wonderful vacation. The house was spotless. The manager was awesome. My daughter and I felt very safe. The location was perfect. We saw a manatee right off the pier. The kayaks, paddleboards, and bikes were a bonus. The manager went above and beyond to ensure we had a great trip. Highly recommend staying here.

This home is a great little gem of a place to stay. From the pool to the canal out back where we watched manatees and fished every day. The home it's self is layed out nicly with mostly new appliances. Will definitely be returning to this location. Thank you for allowing us to use your great place to celebrate my wife and her friends birthday's.

Warm weather getaway
The home is conveniently located in the Florida Keys. It was clean and as advertised. All the appliances worked fine plus there were bikes and paddle boards and some fishing equipment on the premises. The little pool was refreshing and heated. The shower in the second bedroom was not great. I have reported it to the owner and they assured me they would remedy the shower head.

This was a trip to find the sun and it was fantastic! Watching the birds and iguana on the canal and enjoying the pool while watching the sunset was food for the soul.

It was a great place to recoup. It’s on a quiet street and canal. There were new Moutain bikes that we took out daily . The pool is small but warm and clean. Our hosts were quick to answer any questions we had and worked hard to accommodate our late departure. Thanks again for having us.

Cute Property in Great Location
The property was very cute, well maintained and very clean. The beds were big and very comfortable! Everything you need was included including things like shampoo conditioner body wash dish liquid dishwasher and laundry tabs. Lots of other amenities as well like the kayaks and paddle board and bikes and and of course the pool with complete privacy was great and there were even some board games. TVs in both bedrooms and LR was awesome and had cable service and the wifi connection was great. The location was awesome too, being able to fish right off the dock and have a beautiful view to have your coffee in the morning and other meals. The neighborhood was quiet and so close to so many things and there is even a great restaurant within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again.

Tropical treasure
My wife and I went to Marathon for eight wonderful days at "Paradise". Back at our NC mountain home, the mornings were in the 20s, while we sipped our morning coffee poolside. Tough, I know, but we made it through! The king size bed made for deep sleep after days of exploring the Keys. We intend to return!
