Enjoy the Keys state-of-mind in this fully-renovated, modern-coastal Florida Keys stilted beach house located in the desirable Sombrero Beach neighborhood. Ideally located, our house is within walking / biking distance (0.8 miles) to one of the nicest beaches in the Keys, Sombrero Beach (ranked in top 25 beaches in the US by TripAdvisor- #22). We are a short bike ride or two minute car ride to Sombrero Beach (walk/bike path). Down the other direction on Sombrero Beach Road, you will find two supermarkets (Publix and Winn Dixie), Walgreens Pharmacy & Publix Liquor Store. Local shops, tennis courts, 18-hole golf course, gym, boat rentals, boat charters, great local restaurants, bars and fun family attractions are just a short drive away.

Located in Marathon, the heart of the Florida Keys, our location is convenient for day trips to Key West, Islamorada, Key Largo, and all the keys in between.

In your backyard, there is a private 50' dock with plenty of room for a large boat and/or water toys. This deep-water dock is equipped with shore power, fish cleaning table, fresh-water hose connection & dock ladder. The house is located on a wide canal (deep draft) for easy navigation in and out. Boat rentals are also available in Marathon and can be delivered to your dock.

Unwind in the new 6-person spa whirlpool or hot tub with lounge seat, LED lights, waterfall and attached bar with bar stools. Relax in the evenings sipping your favorite beverage under the stars in the back porch overlooking the dock & canal. Enjoy sunset dinners in our Adirondack dining table overlooking the channel. Pull up a chair to the dock and watch the fish surround the underwater LED lights. Downstairs picnic table next to the spa and bar makes for a great evening enjoying the stars and tropical Keys vibe.

Three bikes (with baskets) along with one adult tricycle with room for your cooler/towels. In addition, two paddle boards and two kayaks are included for our guests, along with beach chairs, beach towels, cooler, snorkeling gear (2 sets), etc. Additional water toys or bikes are available for rent in Marathon & can be conveniently delivered to your dock.

Shorter Family Spring Break
The property was great and the owners added little touches like a key lime pie in the fridge and some bottled water. My family especially enjoyed the bicycles!

Pink House Paradise
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this awesome pink Beach House. We rented a boat and did lots of fishing, and that worked really well for us. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked, and plenty of room for everyone in our family. Our boys enjoyed playing cornhole, and the parents loved the hot tub. Such much attention to details that made us feel very welcome! Close to 2 grocery stores and a quick bike ride to Sombrero Beach.

Northerners Escape
This little pink house was perfect for our family of 5 plus an infant. Our host went out of their way to have everything we needed for our grandson- sleep n play & a high chair. The extra's like the use of bikes, kayaks, & hot tub is what caught our attention. We were very comfortable all week & had plenty of things to do. We even saw 4 manatees in the mangroves on 1 of our adventures. Sombrero Beach was a bike ride away. Our hosts answered all our questions quickly. Would definitely book here again!

Terrific place to stay
Just returned from a wonderful month in the Keys. Monica and Roly’s home is fabulous – exactly as advertised. It was bright, airy, comfortable and clean. The kitchen is very well stocked. They also provided everything needed to enjoy the outdoors – bikes, kayaks, fishing rods, beach towels and chairs, etc. And a big thank you for the delicious treats – key lime pie and chips & mango salsa! I would definitely recommend this property and look forward to returning!!

We had a very relaxing week. Monica provided bike helmets, which were waiting for us on arrival. Two brand new fishing rods were provided with tackle and bait. The bikes made it so easy to get to Sombrero Beach!! We loved our week there.
