Perfect getaway from winter

We had an amazing stay at this VRBO in Marathon Shores! The condo was incredibly well-stocked—just like home—with everything we could possibly need. From the fully equipped kitchen to the cozy living space, every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. The location was perfect, and the host was absolutely wonderful—responsive, friendly, and truly made us feel welcome. One of the highlights was relaxing on the deck and balcony, watching the breathtaking sunsets over the water. It was the perfect way to end each day. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely stay here again!

Great Location & Perfect Views

We had an amazing experience at this property. The manager/owner was quick with any responses we needed and made it a super smooth process. The location for boating is perfect! We could see our boat from the villa, short distance to the pool and the best sunset views. We will be staying there again.

Age ranges in my family from 17 to 86. Place is set up with all the amenities you would need including a boat slip and great pool. Very quiet location with very short ride to good restaurants, water activities, and surprisingly nice beach. short trip south to Key West and short trip north to Islamorada. 5 stars across the board.

Wonderful oasis in the Keys

We had a great time staying at the Marlin House. The host was very responsive and helpful. He made sure everything was ready to go for our stay. He also gave us some great recommendations of things to do and places to eat. This house was the perfect spot to stay in the middle of the Keys with access to any key within an hour drive. Beautiful townhome on a beautiful property with all the amenities for a comfortable stay.

Great property, has everything broken down and as a fellow vrbo renter they gave me some great new ideas to make stays even better. I dont like the 4pm check in i know most places are 3 pm that extra hour makes a difference . Great location for getting in and out with the boat, we even caught lobster in the bay !
