We had an absolutely wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The property was beautiful, comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed to make our stay feel like home.One of the many highlights was the ice maker—it may seem like a small detail, but having fresh ice readily available was such a great convenience and something we really appreciated! All of the accommodations were thoughtfully provided, and it was clear that so much care went into making guests feel comfortable.A special thank you to Megan for her amazing communication throughout our stay. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and welcoming, which made the entire experience even better. You could truly tell that the guest experience is a priority.We absolutely loved our time here and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing, and well-appointed place to stay. We’re already looking forward to coming back!
Home was very clean.There was something’s that need attention.We did have problems with the pool and the a/c.The host responded quickly and solved the problems.The problems would not have happened if properly serviced.There were some minor details Keurig coffee maker did not work,no paper filters for regular coffee maker.The hose by the fish cleaning station has cuts in it and needs to be replaced.
This was a perfect stay for my family! The house was very clean, spacious, and the outdoor space around the pool was great! Will be back again for sure!
We felt so at home here. Loved everything about the layout and location. First time having a pool for a keys vacation and it was a game changer. Hosts were accessible and responsive. Would love to rent again someday!
Property was very clean, centrally located to all attractions and beaches in Marathon. Perfect for our family vacation of five (four adults one 21 month old child). Bedrooms and bathrooms are a nice size. Pool is very nice and the outdoor area with a nice table, pool table and dart board. We really enjoyed our family vacation and the stay at this property.
We rented a boat for a week and it was nice to have dockage and ice maker for the cooler. The pool was wonderful. Nancy was responsive to our needs. We enjoyed our stay.
This was our second stay at Fishermans Paradise, and wont be the last. The house is wonderful, the pool is wonderful, and access to bay and ocean is excellent. The ice maker is a huge plus. Thanks Nancy for a great trip again!
The place was very clean, and Nancy has the home setup very well for us to explore the keys. The canal/boat dock, was easy to access, and setup for both our boat, and our kayaks. The pool was such a treat, and the pool table also a blast.
Thanks Nancy
We have been coming to the keys for many years and this by far has been our favorite home to stay in! We loved having the ice maker at the property, there is plenty of parking, the home was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting outside on the porch and under the house, the pool was perfect to cool off in after a day of fishing. The owners are very nice, we can’t wait to go back!
The property was perfect for our stay in Marathon. It was located right in the middle of all the activities (Turtle Hospital, Snorkeling and Fishing Charters). It had a beautiful pool, a canal teaming with fish and wildlife, a pool table in the shade for breaks from the pool. The airport activity was fun to watch. Inside was very spacious and had everything we needed for the week.

Glad you enjoyed the stay. Thank you for the wonderful review, Nancy
Great location, ice machine is a huge plus if you are bringing a boat to fish. We will be trying to book this house next year for our 2 weeks in the keys. Owners were very nice and helpful. I have zero complaints.
