Marathon Family Vacation

Our family met in Marathon for a late summer vacation over Labor Day - 7 adults in all. The property worked really well for us and we especially enjoyed renting a boat for the week and having it delivered right to the dock behind the house. Snorkling was fabulous. Good fun had by all.

Reel Life Christmas

This property was absolutely perfect for our group of 9 family members. There was plenty of room inside and out. The heated pool was just the ticket for the kids. The location was outstanding. We even saw 4 turtles released from the Turtle Hospital on Sombrero Beach. We caught fish off the dock, used the kayaks and the paddle board. There’s something for everyone. We would definitely stay there again.

Sun Fun and Relaxation in Marathon

We took our family on vacation for our youngest son’s HS senior year. The house was perfect. It had lots of great spaces for everyone to relax. All of the bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable. The Kitchen and breakfast bar have everything you need. We loved the upstairs deck for morning coffee. The heated pool was everyone’s favorite and the outdoor TV was great for watching sports while hanging out by the pool. The bikes and kayaks were also great to have. The beach and grocery store were just a short ride down the bike path. The dock was also nice. We caught some fish and got to watch lots of wildlife. We highly recommend this property for family vacations, it has everything you need.

Our Christmas Gift

The house was perfect for our family! House is centrally located to enjoy the north and south ends of the Keys. We heated the pool and enjoyed it thoroughly. Kayaking to mangroves and sombrero beach was a treat. We used the bikes almost daily. Very thankful for quick responses from Meredith. Only disappointing aspect was Sombero Beach charging to park now. $14 per car to enjoy our day there- hated being on a clock.

Great Keys stay

Great trip to the keys! House was great for three families! Parking was not an issue with four large vehicles and a boat! The dock was great for the boat and also for the kids to fish! We were greeted by manatees two nights! Only thing that could have been better was the temp of the pool, it was SO hot outside that the pool was not refreshing when jumping in, more like a hot tub. I know this is the case for many pools in the keys in July. A chiller would be great! I would book again!

Just a described

We stayed the last week of January 2023. We had 7 adults and 2 kids. Plenty of room for everyone. We never felt cramped. The house was just as described. Beautiful house. Perfect location. We spent a lot of time fishing off the sea wall. Saw a few manatees. Kids basically lived in the pool. The property manager was very quick to answer questions. She was great! I highly recommend staying here.

Family Getaway

The property was clean. Suitable for six people. Overall the unit lacked attention to small maintenance items such as smoke detectors, stains on furniture and a loose doorknob. We were restricted on the temperature setting for the a/c leaving the unit hot at certain times during the day. The kitchen could use some new items for food preparation in mind as we book with VRBO for the ability to cook in. Overall after spending a week at Reel Life at the given price point for our stay we expected a bit more.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 July 2024
Thank you for reviewing your stay Cindy. We purchased brand new couches in April with a sleeper sofa. I have since purchased new dishes, but know that the kitchen is stocked well with pots, pans and other baking items. The A/C is not restricted, but we ask that you not turn it down below 72. We do need a new dining table and chairs and we are currently for a new set. Having said that, it is totally functional and comfortable (just not pristine condition). The home is gorgeous - one of my favorites - with custom curtains, attractive art work and bedding. It is priced very reasonably and has many many wonderful reviews.

Great location. Great place.

We stayed there for a week in August and rented a boat for the same time frame. It’s a quick trip to the reef and there is great fishing and lobstering very close by. The beach is right up the road too. The place itself was well maintained and had everything you could possibly need. We will be back.
