Best view ever from every room! Best sunset views! Loved the screened in back porch area. An older home but you couldn’t beat the view & the size of the home. Loved all the spare linens. Quick access to amenities & things to do.. Can reach things to do in Marathon & Key West.

Great dock and seawall. Many types of fish- snorkeling great off the dock- house is spacious. Host was communicative. R

Nice location with sunsets on the water. It’s a half circle shaped house, which is unique.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2024
Property has good bones but needs updating. Shouldn’t advertise bicycles and beach chairs if not in working order. Some confusion figuring out where all lights turn on but we managed. Lagoon was difficult to maneuver in and out of-we had a 22’ boat. Heather was easy to work with in booking and communication up to our arrival.
