One of our best family vacations…
We began our rental search late this season due to having teenagers and their constantly changing spring sporting commitments. The OCD in my planning routine and the number of guests is always a task yet after countless hours of searching the entire length of The Keys with a bias in Marathon we kept going back to this house. To be honest, we had initial concerns about the separate levels yet it turned out to be a perfect situation having our parents and college son stay in the downstairs living area which was a blessing in disguise due to being on the ground floor. They were able to stay more active as we utilized the outside dining area with big screen to watch some March Madness….
Marathon has become an absolute family favorite because of the stable Spring Break weather and the amount of activities available to the kids (10-19) that is all very close and family friendly.
The communication with the owner was excellent. Everything about the house has been very well thought out to make your stay more than enjoyable. We travelled from Michigan with our own paddleboards and fishing/snorkelling gear yet we could have just left a lot of things at home as you know how rentals can be. This was NOT the case…
We rented a boat for 5 days and it blew for half of them yet we were able to sneak over to the Gulf side to find flat water. The dock is very well equipped and in excellent condition. There is even a ladder down to a swim platform for launching kayaks and boards.
