The living area and kitchen were updated and very nice. The pool area was also very nice.The property had a musty smell in the bedrooms. I notified VACASA, but there was no response.
BOOK NOW! We loved this house, view and location! We have gone to the keys often, and this is by far our favorite place! The view is breathtaking, and you can pull your boat right up to the dock. The bridge is right around here corner and you can zip out to the lighthouse for snorkeling! There is also a lot within walking distance- restaurants, jet ski/kayak rentals and more. Boat rentals down the road very close. We brought our bikes to ride around and go to the pedestrian bridge! It was great to come back and jump in the pool! We were also able to bring our doggies which we loved. We had a manatee come right up to our dock for fresh water!! We will definitely be back. I miss it already.
We loved everything about this place! We spent hours everyday in the pool and fishing off the dock. The location was perfect. There were several bars and restaurants in walking distance and a short drive to everywhere else we wanted to go. We will definitely book this house again!
Very clean and updated property will stay here again

Nice vacation spot
The house looked like it had just been refinished. The kitchen was well supplied. We spent most of our time between the porch and the pool.

This was our first trip to the keys. We enjoyed the home, great location on the water. The pictures don't do justice for how comfy and roomy the how is. The pool was awesome. Would definitely go back again.

All Magic
Everything was great. Had everything we needed and great location on the water. Have no complaints at all except that only one bedroom had a TV. Really enjoyed our stay and we definitely will be back. Thank you for a great place.
The house was clean and well stocked for all your needs. The view however, was the the best part of the stay. Hanging out in the pool or under the shade of the covered porch just staring at the view was amazing!
Well stocked property with pool and dock for fishing. Close to 7mile bridge for walking/biking/sunset. Would stay again. Lots to see in the busy little harbor outside the house. Marathon is bustling as well but nice to be minutes from store etc. House was very clean and kitchen well stocked.

Hidden Gem of The Keys
Tucked on the last little road on Marathon, it was a quiet and peaceful. The only noise was the sound of occasional rain and the wild roosters of the Keys. The house had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. We liked the location so we could do short day trips and yet have a nice grocery store nearby. It was relaxing to have a pool looking out to the ocean. We would stay here again!
We had a wonderful vacation in the Keys. The home was perfect for us!! Very clean, gorgeous view and the kids loved playing in the pool. Sunset boat rides, lobstering, fishing and swimming with the dolphins at dolphin connect. We made amazing memories in this home and will definitely be booking this home again! Thank you for sharing your home with us! We loved every minute of our week of paradise.
We had an awesome stay! This house has the most well stocked kitchen dishes, utensils, pots and pans, plates, etc than any house I have ever stayed at in all our visits to the Keys. The house was very clean and cheerful upon our arrival. Plenty of room. Open windows for plenty of sunshine and to see the sunrise each morning. Plenty of chairs by the pool. The whole place was beautiful! I can't say enough about how nice this place was. We will definitely be staying there again!
Had a wonderful time at Marathon Magic…it was beautiful, peaceful and very convenient. Only one burner worked on the stove and the oven kept setting off the fire alarm!! But we worked around this! Would definetly go back again!!
Enjoyed the property. Property manager provided limited supplies and would not give more trash bags or paper items. No suggestions provided on local activities or restaurants
Decent home. Location on the water reminds me of us 1. Workers pounding nails over the weekend working on lobster traps. Wish I did better research. Grill needs a desperate update. Angles of pictures make it look totally different.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Not quite
The home was located in a very commercial area with construction going on behind the home. Not much in the way of privacy as neighbors on both sides could be clearly heard night and day. Trash rules confusing and not clearly communicated.
When enjoying the pool daily chartered boats would go by full of patrons who can view the entire back yard, close enough to touch.
