Sweet Retreat! 4 bedroom 2.5 Baths Sombrero Beach w Pool Jacuzzi, 37` dock 2

Plr2019-00281
Do you love the Tropical Waters of the Florida Keys?  This vacation home is calling to you. Located on the water in the exclusive Sombrero Beach Area and located 3 miles from the beach. This Sweet Retreat embraces the waterfront vacation lifestyle, with plenty of room for the entire family or a group of friends traveling together. 

There are 2 full-size ocean Paddle Boards and a couple of 2 seater Ocean Kayaks that hold fishing rods included.

This Sweet Retreat has 4 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths in a quiet peaceful neighborhood with all the amenities and comforts you can think of.  You have two covered Carports in front of the home for shade and cover for those rainy days. Plenty of parking for 3 cars and a boat trailer. 

Dock your boat on the property with the  37ft of dock. The dock offers deep water access to the Atlantic Ocean. The home boasts an outdoor fridge, bait freezer, Commercial Ice Maker, and dockside fish cleaning table, so you can easily clean your latest catch.  Luxury outdoor gas grill to cook with rotisserie and dual heating bar included.

Once you enter the home through the grand foyer, you see the beautiful wood stairs. The first bedroom on your right has a twin trundle bed, TV, and access to the pool. Next to the bedroom, you will have a half bath. The large laundry room has a front loader washer & dryer, an ironing area, and plenty of linens and beach towels. If you go straight down along the staircase you will enter the huge master suite with a California king bed, His and Hers large closets, dual vanities, a soaking tub, shower, TV, and a private entrance to the pool. 
As you make your way upstairs you will find the Vaulted Great room that overlooks the pool area and canal. The spacious formal dining room seats eight people and leads out to a balcony that has a six-seater dining table overlooking the pool. The fully stocked kitchen has everything you need to make those large family meals, a Large kitchen Island, 2 separate copper sinks with all stainless steel appliances, and a gas range!.Going around the staircase upstairs there are two guest bedrooms, one with a king-size bed & the other with a queen-size bed both bedrooms have TVs. Between the rooms is the second full bathroom with a double-wide shower. 

The backyard has been laid out to make you feel like you are in a tropical Oasis. We have an awesome Tiki Hut with an outdoor sofa, chairs, beautiful rope lighting & fan.

The built-in automatic mosquito mist system will ensure to make it comfortable, it encompasses the entire yard and keeps the mosquitos away.

The Pool is Grande with a spill-over jacuzzi and a splash pad, pool heat is included.  Relax in the oversized loungers or fish from the back dock. 
On your kayaks or paddleboards you can actually follow the canal to Sombrero Beach if you are feeling adventurous! 

Book your stay now, we promise you will love it as much as we do!!

AREA:
Sombrero Beach is known as one of the best-kept secrets in the Florida Keys. Sombrero Beach has beautiful white soft sand alongside glistening turquoise waters, without the throngs of tourists found on other beaches. Serene and beautiful, Sombrero Beach will be the highlight of your trip. It is only a 5 min drive to enjoy sunbathing, snorkeling, and fishing in the shallow water or playing volleyball or digging sandcastles on the sandy shore. There are also BBQ grills, a playground, and a pier.
The area around Sombrero Beach also offers a wealth of things to do. Snorkel in the calm waters of Sombrero Reef, the third-largest coral reef in the world or visit the sea turtles at the Turtle Hospital or dive in with dolphins at the Dolphin Research Center in nearby Grassy Key. Plenty of diving and deep-sea fishing charters within minutes.

Max. occupancy: 8 to 10  if you do have 10 people you will need to rent a rollaway bed or bring an air mattress 
Boat Lift not included

Nice place, needs better maintenance
Needs to be cleaned up, and a few repairs. Not worth the price we paid, in my opinion, but it was still enjoyable.

Great place to stay!
We had a group of 3 couples and there was plenty of room for everyone, we never felt crowded. The house is exactly as listed, or even better than the pictures show! The pool and tiki bar were a great place to hang out. We rented a boat for the week and there was plenty of room to dock it. The canals were easy to navigate and a great location! The team was quick to answer any questions we had, easy check in and check out procedures! They did have landscaping come in midway through the trip, which wasn’t ideal but they worked quickly. If it hasn’t been raining we would have been out on the water and would have never known! We will be staying here again! Highly recommend!

Great Location
Close to Sombrero Reef by boat. House was well laid out and clean. Pool area was nice with plenty of outdoor seating and a fish cleaning table. The accuracy of the listing was inaccurate, showed 2 twin beds in one of the rooms but there was one queen bed which we weren't expecting. My family and I enjoy boating,snorkeling,and fishing and this house was great for that. Would recommend

Very nice house on a canal in Marathon
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Sweet Retreat. Plenty of room for three couples. Pool was great — very happy we asked for it to be heated in mid-February. Water was perfect. Our son brought his boat (22 footer) and had no difficulty with egress even at low tide. It does take a bit of time to navigate the canals to get to open water, but the scenery is great on the way. Overall very happy!

Great house to meet needs of family
Great property. Worked well for 4 adults and one teenager. Location was central for grocery shopping and fishing with our boat. Great parking and fun toys like the paddle boards and kayaks. The pool was great and there were options for seating inside and out. All in all it was perfect for us and made a great stay for an amazing trip.

Everything was great; pool, patio, location and interior. My only issue is that the canal IS NOT accessible by boat at low tide. We had to move our 22' center console to a marina to use it.

Exactly what we needed
Beautiful property, clean and relaxing. Nice location in the middle keys. The kitchen is very nice. The only concern we had was that the pool and particularly the spa weren't real warm. We weren't told ahead of time that paying for a heated spa meant the temp would be a maxumum of 92 degrees (it really did t get to that temp or stay there very long). The weather in Jan can be a little chilly in the evenings and we wanted to relax in the spa but couldn't.

Beautiful home
The home was beautiful and in a neighborhood with easy access to grocery and restaurants. PLEASE NOTE: At the time of booking we were unaware of the extra fee for the pool to be heated, so we had to pay an extra $250. Moreover, the hot tub is UNUSABLE unless you pay the heat fee for the pool, which should also be stated somewhere. The kitchen is very well stocked and the beds are very comfortable.

What a great house. So clean and beautifully decorated. It has everything you need to relax and enjoy the Keys. The pool was awesome and the access to the Atlantic or Gulf was so short and easy.

Beautiful home with excellent amenities
My family and I loved staying at this beautiful home. We made full use of the space! We cooked many dinners in the well-supplied kitchen and spent a lot of time hanging out in the pool and jacuzzi! There were a couple of minor issues like the barbecue was not well-maintained and even had a brush melted onto the grate, and the downstairs toilet stopped working on the second to last day of our stay. Other than that, everything was perfect and we would definitely recommend this house to future Keys vacationers!

Had a great stay here, plenty of room for everyone. Easy to get out to the ocean from the canal. Lots of bedrooms and baths, kitchen well stocked. Only small complaint is that everything bed is very soft, hard on those of us with back issues. Manager was wonderful, very responsive. Thank you for letting us vacation with you
