After the sun dips below the horizon, step back through the sliding glass doors and watch a movie on the 55-inch flatscreen TV while cozying up on the plush couches. Everyone will drift to sleep to the sound of the water nearby and recharge for the next day's activities!

Nice location, cool vibes home

Pros: -Lovely, cleaned home. Nice first view. -Master Bath and pool towels were excellent. -kitchen appliances new -Plunge pool very nice Cons: - All beds need to be replaced saggy and slides off base. Double bed mattress back room smelled like urine- unuseable, unacceptable -All sheets were cheap with master orange ones even balled- totally unacceptible for the quality of this home. I bought a new king set to use that I took home with me. - Bugs in bathrooms (spiders, silverfish?) I have pictures if you need -Couple cockroaches in kitchen- again unacceptable -Sofa furniture was horrible -views on website did not include large covered boat obstructing view- disappointed -grill inside rusted I would rent this home again if you upgraded the beds and took care of the bug situation. I will definitely use Vacasa again. Easy, responsive. A Vacassa van also stopped by the house. They didn't knock but was nice to know they are in the area if we needed them. That's valuable!

Great house but…..,..

Furnishings need to be updated. We stayed at La Pirata for three weeks. Kitchen, plunge pool, dock all fantastic. Layout of bedrooms disappointing as the master bedroom does not have private bath. Private bath in what is referred to as room with twin beds. There are no twin beds but one double. Mattresses in master as well as the double need replacement. What was most disappointing is that living room furniture is actually outdoor furniture. It was incredibly uncomfortable. Also, at least one lounge chair is needed in the pool area. Plastic stackable chairs is all that is available. We really enjoyed being in Marathon for three weeks. However we will not be renting la Pirata again due to the lack of comfortable furnishings.

Relaxing but Exciting

Pirata is a very calm and peaceful environment. Within a few minutes you can do any activity desired. We kayaked off Sombrero Beach, bicycled, went fishing and enjoyed Crane Hammock Nature Preserve. Several times right at the house we had a very friendly manatee visitor.

Beautiful place! Weather was perfect but not as handicap accessible as told.

Over all great! One of the neighbors was very rude when our younger adults got too loud. I get the whole respect thing. It was the way he yelled shut the F up right out the window instead of coming over or asking please be more quiet. Then when my husband and son were talking on the other side of the table they called the police. Police came twice. It was upsetting. Other than that … beautiful experience. The couches are outside furniture so it was hard to get comfy when you did want to just chill. Close to a lot of things but driving is a must.

Little Venice

The house was very clean and well stocked. Communication was great with the property manager and we enjoyed our stay for the most part. We paid extra to have the pool heated for our December stay because we knew the weather was going to be cooler but still wanted to use the pool. The pool was not heated for our stay and we were unable to use it after the first 2 days when the temperature dropped. Someone did come out and check the heat right away after I messaged the property manager but it was not fixed. They did promptly refund my money but it was a disappointment. Also, the view of the ocean from the patio was blocked by the neighbors 2 large boats. That is not something the rental house could control and should not be a reflection on them but it was a disappointment for me because I wanted a view of the ocean. We were right on the canal which was nice and there was a manatee that came to visit several times. It overall was a nice stay in a beautiful and clean house with everything we needed except for the pool heat and boats blocking my view of the ocean. If those 2 things were not obstacles it would have been the perfect stay.
