Tropical Therapy

Summary:

This 2 BD/2 BA KCB duplex has been recently updated with new backyard oasis, pool, hot tub and deck



The Space:

Sit back and enjoy some tropical therapy in beautiful Key Colony Beach, known as the 'Gem of the Florida Keys.' Nestled within minutes of Marathon's conveniences, this island paradise will quickly feel like your home away from home. Whether you're looking to unwind or embark on an adventure, this home has it all. Relax with a refreshing island beverage on the palm-shaded deck overlooking the canal, take a dip in the brand-new temperature-controlled private pool and spa, or explore the area with complimentary bikes and a kayak. With access to world-class fishing, diving, and snorkeling, there's truly something for everyone.



This charming two-bedroom, two-bathroom retreat now features hardwood floors throughout the bedrooms and living areas, creating a fresh and inviting atmosphere. The open living space flows seamlessly onto the back porch, offering stunning canal views at sunset and a beautifully manicured backyard oasis with the pool and spa as the centerpiece.



The main bedroom boasts a king bed and a private bath, while the second bedroom includes two twin beds located directly across from the shared bathroom. Perfect for couples or small families, the house comfortably sleeps up to five people with the addition of a rollaway cot.



Situated on a 100-foot-wide canal, the property includes a 37-foot dock and a fish-cleaning station, making it ideal for boating and fishing enthusiasts. Stay connected with HDTV and WiFi while enjoying serene water views.



Conveniently located with quick access to the Vaca Cut Bridge and the Atlantic Ocean, this home is the ultimate Florida Keys getaway. Enjoy an eastern exposure with sunny mornings and shady afternoons, and take advantage of its central location midway between Key Largo and Key West, off the coast of Marathon — renowned for the best fishing and diving in the Keys.



Key Colony Beach has restaurants, a post office, a 9 hole-golf course, Sunset Park, and two playgrounds that are all within walking distance from the house.



There are two public beaches and one state park nearby the home. Coco Plum is a 6 minute drive, Sombrero Beach is 16 minutes away, and Curry Hammock State Park is 9 minutes away from the home.

Perfectly Relaxing Getaway Spot

Tropical Therapy is such a fitting name for this place! It was the perfect spot for our family getaway. The house was impeccable and had everything we could need. The pool was a huge plus with the kids too! We loved the location. Tucked in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood on the canal but still very close to all the activities we did. Plenty of amazing places to eat, some even within walking distance. A very helpful booklet guide is in the home, so if you're new to the area you can check out some highly rated places to visit during the stay. I would absolutely book this place again!

We love that the welcome guide was helpful too—it’s always our goal to make every stay as easy and enjoyable as possible. We’d be absolutely delighted to host you again anytime!

Perfect for boaters.

It was our first time bringing a boat to the Florida Keys. Great little house and a wonderful dock. It’s really nice to walk out the door and hop in your boat. So much to do and see. House was great.

Perfect Family Spring Break

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: This property was exactly as described. Very clean, very nicely furnished and had everything we needed. Extremely well equipped kitchen for a rental which was great because our college kids apparently miss home cooked food and preferred that many night to going out. Nice newer grill as well. Rented a boat for the week for fishing and sandbar relaxing. Cabana club was also a plus for beach and pool/hot tub. Walking /biking lane everywhere in Key Colony. Would definitely rent again on return visit to Marathon.

When I did they came right away and repaired. Outside deck has nails and screws popping up and several boards cracked and splintered(careful with bare feet). Would consider renting again.

Wonderful property!

We had a great time away from home! The property is in pristine clean condition. Everything was great- decor, furniture, linens, kitchen and bath essentials, and the best view to top it off! It was our third time in Key Colony Beach and we enjoy the safety, family atmosphere, walkability of the area, and wonderful canal and beaches there. The property is very well stocked- great linens and towels, wonderful toiletries in the baths, all the kitchen knickknacks you may need and great selection of board games to play on a quiet evening . The listing had slightly inaccurate information inside the house as well as the property app had advertised the membership to the beach club, which was not available. Otherwise, great response from the property management on the fridge issue- it suddenly stopped working. The management provided the technician and the fridge replacement immediately. Highly recommend the property. We had a wonderful stay, and this property had everything for a comfortable vacation!

Dream Vacation

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: From the moment we booked our trip I kept looking at pictures of the property and imagining what it might be like. From the moment we walked in, our expectations were met and then superseded. This is an extremely clean, well maintained property that oozes comfort and charm from the wood beams in the family room to the spectacular views of the canal. The king size bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything you might need during your stay. There were even some condiments/etc left behind to use. Easy washer dryer access with new machines. Beautiful outdoor grill situated downstairs for easy use to eat outside with picnic table and views of the canal. Additional dining areas inside the kitchen and outside on the upstairs deck with table and chairs. Extremely easy communication with the property manager and all the information we needed for our stay. We rented a boat and enjoyed the easy access to the ocean with this property on the canal-5 minutes to the water and a 25 min boat ride to coffins patch which ended up being a spectacular snorkel spot. We’ve snorkeled and dove many places in the Caribbean-etc and we both said this was the best. We can’t wait to book again for next year!!!!

Nice location

The property was very clean and a great location. Nicely decorated. But I was disappointed that the online listing is inaccurate and they is not a sleeper sofa in the living area as advertised. Instead there was a tiny cot in the master bedroom. If I had known this and hadn’t relied on the listing to be accurate, I would have booked a different house. When I asked the management about this, their only reply was “well we will update the listing”. I see it still has not been updated.
