Awesome week in The Florida Keys! Melissa was outstanding as a VRBO host! Every text message answered promptly with 100% honesty and a fast solution! Beautiful property - don’t hesitate to make this reservation.
We traveled with another family to the Keys for a week of vacation to celebrate our sons’ senior year of high school. The house was amazing! All the amenities we could ask for (pool, hot tub, fishing right off the dock) which made for a great vacation. Melissa was welcoming, helpful, and super responsive. The house had plenty of room for our 2 families and is located close to a lot of activities in Marathon and in the Keys in general. Can’t recommend this home highly enough!
Stayed at this wonderful house with my wife and son and his family. We all had a great time. The grandkids loved the pool area, swam every day. Melissa (the owner) was so easy to work with and always answered any questions we had. We loved the neighborhood and the Marathon area. Plenty of things to do and places to eat. We rented a boat for several days so having the dock was great. We definitely will be back!
Great stay in Marathon at Yellow Fin! The house was perfect for 3 couples wanting casual time together around the pool and some fishing adventures. Highly recommend this property!
We pick a place every year to enjoy a trip with our friends. This year we were also celebrating a 40th birthday and 15 year wedding anniversary. The property was beautiful and Melissa was very helpful at every step. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property!
The house, pool, dock....everything was wonderful! Tons of room for two families, super clean, all the amenities we needed and more. Beds were super comfortable (that's a definite plus). Melissa & Eric were great!
This place is amazing. Has everything you could possibly need ! Melissa and Eric are wonderful hosts and were always available if needed. We will hopefully be back
Thank you, Cliff & Amy from Minnesota
Had a great week at Yellowfin. Inside and out the house was wonderful. Probably the best pool/deck area we have encountered.
Great TVs throughout the house and on the deck.
Having beach towels provided simplified packing. The kitchen was well equipped. Provided baby equipment was much appreciated by our family which included a toddler and infant.
Melissa was very responsive to inquiries and pleasant to work with.
The house was great. Both sink drains in the upstairs master bathroom need cleaning. One is pretty much completely clogged up with hair. The owners only provide the bare minimum on paper products and trash bags. When I mentioned that to the owners they said that they would add that to the welcome information checklist. Also laundry detergent was not provided even though you are expected to start a load of towels before you check out. Minor things but the more you know about what you will need to provide makes shopping on that first day much easier. Overall we loved the house and location. I am pretty sure that we will rent Yellow Fin again in the future and I already recommended it to several of my friends.
Absolute Paradise in the Keys!This home was everything we could have hoped for and more! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how beautiful it was. The pool was absolutely stunning — crystal clear and it made it hard to even think about leaving. We spent so much time just relaxing by the water and soaking up the peaceful atmosphere.The owners were incredibly attentive and responsive throughout our stay, checking in to make sure everything was great. It’s clear they take great pride in this home!We didn’t want to leave and are already dreaming about coming back! Thank you again!!
Had a lovely stay at Yellowfin. So much space for the whole family. The pool/outside lounge area was the favorite hangout space. We had room for two boats and enjoyed a week of fun on the water.
We had the best week at Yellowfin. We had four kids 7 and under and 4 adults. Plenty of space for our two families and lots of great toddler items at the home. (Crib, height chair, toy Walker, baby bath tub - all great condition!) The outdoor area is fabulous! The zero entry pool was great for the little kids, hot tub for adults and big pool for the older kids was fantastic. Fishing off the dock each day was so fun, we saw manatees and lots of pelicans! Host was wonderful and responsive. No complaints!
We had an amazing stay! The outdoor pool and hot tub area was perfect for all ages and we spent at least a few hours there every single day. We also used the kayaks a few times and enjoyed having morning coffee in the screened in porch. Melissa was very responsive. The location was great and close to grocery stores, the Dolphin Research Crnter, Animal Encounters, mini golf, and lots of great restaurants. Definitely recommend!
we loved it except the pool cleaners metal brush malfunctioned and left hundreds of little wire strands in the bottom of the pool which the children stepped on. After calling the host the pool cleaners returned to reclean the pool but we still found strands in the pool
The house, pool and location were awesome. They had everything we needed for the baby. Loved the seating for all of us in every room. Very pleasant and responsive to all of our communications. One small suggestion, the pool chair chaise lounge cushions could use replacing. Overall, a great stay! Thanks Melissa!
We had an amazing week at the house! Pics are accurate but sooo much better in person! Communicating w Melissa was super easy and quick. No issues just wished we could still be there!!! Amazing outdoor area to entertain from morning to night. Would love to go back!!

About the host
Hosted by Melissa
We have been going on family vacations here for the past 17 years. We finally purchased our own vacation rental and have applied all that we have learned from the many rentals we have stayed in to create what we hope will be a very comfortable and enjoyable trip for all.
Why they chose this property
We really enjoy the fishing, white sand beach, beautiful blue water, restaurants, and laid back atmosphere of Marathon. The lot and home is spacious and well kept by the previous owners, it had never been rented before and is in pristine condition. It has great bones and a tremendous Amount of potential inside and out.
What makes this property unique
There is a Large lot to create the perfect outdoor bar and pool area. The canal is 200 foot wide with quick access to the ocean, it’s in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood surrounded By upscale homes. The upstairs master has a private balcony and a beautiful place to relax after a long day on the water. the kitchen is much larger than the homes we typically have rented and is well stocked. We installed a large premium zero edge pool with hot tub and sun shelf and made sure to have lots of room for lounge chairs and corn hole. We continue to reinvest and make the home more comfortable for us and in turn our guests!
