Best Place hands down!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Just wonderful! The house, the grounds, the pool, the staff, the location. It just doesn't get better than Marlin Bay. This was our second time down and it was wonderful. Plenty of space for our party of 10 which included 3 children. Everything we needed and beautifully detailed. Hopping on the boat and going for lobster or fishing was so easy. WE LOVE MARLIN BAY and look forward to many years of returning. Thanks!

A real treasure in the Keys

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I had an amazing time at Marlin Bay Marina. The property was quiet, very well maintained, spacious, and luxurious. It's a real treasure in the keys considering the enormous pool size and amenities for just a dozen or so rental homes. It appears the pool and common areas were designed to accommodate a much larger building project of 100 or so rental homes, but for whatever reason, construction seems to have ceased after phase 1. So for a few rental homes, Marlin Bay's undeveloped property serves up quite an incredible deal with its large marina, pool, club house and other common areas that were initially designed to accommodate hundreds of guests. Overall, it's a luxuriously expansive property that provides a quiet, secluded, and well appointed retreat right in the middle of Marathon Key.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beyond our expectations, the facility is outstanding with both the home we stayed in or the marina we used to keep our boat. All Marlin Bay personnel were extremely polite, professional and friendly. I give this facility an A+. There are cheaper places to stay but I doubt there are any nicer.

Great Christmas and New Year’s

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Being from Washington State and heading to Florida, Marlin Bay was nothing more than their ads. The virtual tour they provided was extremely accurate. However, they did not suggest the great ambience of the place. The place is fantastic! Every thing was superb: the pool, hot tub, pool side bar, kayaks etc. The house makes us want to return. BTW we had a family of 6 with 2 others for NYE. FANTASTIC.

Overall a great oasis in Marathon

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed with 6 of us, including 3 kids under 10 for a week. The locations was great (lots of restaurants within 5-10 mins), the grounds and house was well maintained and the pool was the perfect temperature! Only ding is that this was a resort that seemed designed for grandparent, parents and kids, but they don't allow pool toys in the pool.

Great Place to Stay and Dock your boat.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Marlin Bay is a great place to get away. Condos are clean and come with a small (additional) freezer in the garage for bait and all the fish you catch or extra bags of ice for early morning fishing departures. Staff is very good. Local restaurants are very good and will cook your fish that you catch. The only complaint would be that you must book 7 days. 5 days would be more reasonable especially when traveling by boat as you would have a day of travel and a day of departure making for a very long vacation for some people.

A perfect house!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved our house and the whole Marlin Bay property. We have never seen the attention to detail that you see here. Immaculate grounds, constantly maintained, incredible staff, and even things that make you realized just how detail oriented they are, like the kitchen utensils perfectly aligned and spaced in the drawers. The bar by the pool was amazing and Scot was the absolute best. The concierge crew went above and beyond with everything. Really one of the best properties we have ever visited.
