Luxury, Pool, Dock, Kayaks, Ocean Views

Aqua Villa

This stunning, upscale home boasts modern coastal decor and offers spectacular oceanfront views, along with 50′ of dockage on a canal for direct open water access.

Enjoy breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean from three large balconies, or take in the scenery from the floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the ocean right to you. This nearly new custom-built home features 2,600 square feet of elegant coastal living, including a second-floor master suite with a private veranda overlooking the ocean.

The main floor offers an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, as well as one bedroom (King) and a full bath. The upper level includes the master suite (King) with an ensuite bathroom and two additional bedrooms (Queen, Twins) that share the third bathroom. The home is equipped with 5 TVs (4 inside and 1 in the summer kitchen) and one DVD player.

On the ground level, you’ll find a large covered area with a fabulous summer kitchen (including a gas grill) and a comfortable sitting area. This space overlooks the pool/swim spa, which features a waterfall. There is plenty of seating for dining, relaxing, sunbathing, or enjoying the kitchen bar. The pool measures 12’ x 30’ and is 5 feet deep.

The home includes all the amenities you could need: a ping-pong table, two double-seater kayaks, one single-person kayak with paddles and life jackets, central heating and air, a washer and dryer, high-speed wireless internet, and 50’ of concrete dockage with a fish-cleaning table and bait freezer. Indoor dining accommodates 8 people, and outdoor seating includes space for 10, plus 5 barstools.

Location: Marathon is a large island centrally located in the Florida Keys. It offers many conveniences, including two grocery stores, a pharmacy, a hospital, and a variety of wonderful restaurants and shops. Family-friendly attractions include The Turtle Hospital, Aquarium Encounters, Pigeon Key, Crane Point Museum and Nature Center, and the Dolphin Research Center on Grassy Key. Marathon also has two public beaches: Coco Plum Beach and Sombrero Beach. You’ll be just 20 minutes from Bahia Honda State Park, an hour from Key West, and 40 minutes from Islamorada, making for fantastic day trips!

A car is recommended for easy exploration of Marathon and the surrounding islands.

For larger groups, inquire about renting our beautiful 4-bedroom home next door!

Best vacation spot!

Property was amazing. Cannot complain about anything. We were supposed to travel with our yacht there, but hit a sandbar in Nc. I broke my back and shoulder blade. Upon our arrival I was greeted with a beautiful bouquet of flowers and get well balloons. Rental company was so amazing. We will definitely come back.

Keys stay

We truly loved the location. A few minor things such as the dishwasher was not cleaning well, the toilet upstairs kept running. I wish they had a sink at the outdoor kitchen area as well as a bathroom. Not sure if having a bathroom ground level is something that can be done with homes in that area. It just is a lot when you have that many people and in and out of the pool etc. we loved the house and stay without question and would do it again.

Beautiful property with amazing water views. Quick access to the water for boaters with minimal vehicle traffic. Not a location that is a neighborhood but a one way street, very quiet though. The pool and outdoor seating area/kitchen on the first floor were our favorite spot. Property manager was very responsive…we enjoyed the stay very much and would absolutely book again next year.

Excellent vacation home and even better customer service and response time with questions and addressing all needs. Very well equipped house. The only down side to the house design is no bathroom or kitchen sink downstairs. Beautiful views and would definitely stay there again.

Great house

House was good, just a few things out of their control. Early morning and day Construction going on at other houses and a terrible smell coming off the ocean/ water that made sitting outside unpleasant. Otherwise, we enjoyed our week!

Great house, wonderful location!

Our stay in Marathon was wonderful, and this house was just perfect! The views were great, beds extremely comfortable, plenty of kitchen dishes, utensils, etc. Our favorite part was the outdoor living area, we spent the majority of our time there enjoying the views, the pool and the warm breezes! Meredith was very responsive throughout the entire process from booking, to questions and check-in. Loved our trip, and highly recommend this beautiful house!

Beautiful modern house with a great view

Beautiful modern house with awesome amenities. Nice to have the pool shaded for the second half of the day for those who don't like too much sun. No sunset views but amazing sunrises, if you get up that early. Great house for a larger crowd.
