Cozy little efficiency that has all you need. The property is nice with views of the water, fishing if you like, dock space if you have a boat, great restaurants in the area. We would definitely come again someday.
Cottage 10 was perfect for us! The approach to the covered porch and welcoming chairs set the tone. As soon as we opened the door I was impressed with the cleanliness and fun, funky decor. The location was quiet and scenic, we walked out on the pier several times a day (and night). Never got tired of that view! Big bonus was the residents of the park. They were lovely, we were invited to join in several activities which we greatly enjoyed. Overall a 10+, we totally recommend this property.
The unit was located in a friendly, private community, was well appointed and impeccably clean. The air conditioner broke while we were there and Hans, the owner, replaced it within 2 hours. To say he was responsive is an understatement. Marathon is beautiful with much to enjoy and also a great location to explore further in the Keys. I would not hesitate to recommend this accommodation to others or to stay again.
Dans l'ensemble, l'unité était confortable, propre et complet pour un séjour de 4 jours dans les Keys. Nous avons bien apprécié le petit port et la jetée, très proches, et qui donnaient un cachet au lieu. Le site était très calme et reposant.
La localisation est à une dizaine de minutes de Marathon et ses nombreux restaurants et centres d'activités. Lors de notre séjour, nous sommes allés à 2 reprises à Key West (environ 1h15). C'est assurément une place à recommander, et qui nous plairait de retourner.
My partner and I loved this little bungalow. It was perfect for what we needed. I especially loved the landscaping around it giving the outdoor space a private feel. It was very clean and check in was easy.
We were so happy with our stay! The place was so clean and everything was beautiful. We had an issue figuring out the TV, but I called and Hans was over in a flash to fix it. The bed was so comfy and all the neighbors were so nice. We will come back for sure! One of the best vacations we have had!!!
We truly enjoyed our stay. Everything was great and the location is close to many attractions and shopping. We hope to return and would recommend to anyone.
My husband & I enjoyed our stay very much. It was clean & a good location. Wonderful artsy decor. The Dolphin Rescue Center was right across the street, a fascinating place to visit. We loved sitting on the front porch & grilling dinner.
Very cozy with all you need to enjoy your days at Florida Keys. Owner support was super, thanks Hans.
The only improvement I would suggest is to enhance the WiFi coverage. Very week signal inside the unit.
For sure a place to be considered in our next trip to the Keys.
Very, very clean. Courteous and accommodating owner. Enjoyed our stay.

Very Good, overall.
Clean, well-equipped. Consider upgrade for the picnic table in front. Umbrella did not work.Coin operated laundry not a good option.
Internet unusable inside, only worked outside which the "no see-ums" really appreciated!
Would have stayed longer if available and would consider another stay in the future.
Hans responded immediately to all our questions!

Great Place in Middle Keys
This is the second time I've stayed at this property. I enjoy it very much. It's simple, clean and very well situated. Close to a couple of nice beaches (beaches are rare in the keys), as well as grocery stores. There are also some decent restaurants in the area if you want to go out. It's about 1:15h to Key West. If you want to relax and enjoy the Keys this is a great place to do that.

The overall experience was good. Very quiet!
There were a few things that could have been better, but it was nothing that was extremely terrible. Secluded and quiet! Window coverings need to be more private. Map of park amenities would have made things more convenient. The bungalow is centrally located in Marathon on Grassy Key which was one if the best features.

The property was exactly what I was looking for. Clean and convenient minutes from fishing.
Had a great time with my eight-year-old son on our annual fishing trip. Everybody was super friendly and the accommodations were great. It had all the amenities we were looking for including great access to the Atlantic and a short boat ride to the Gulf. We will definitely be back!

About the host
Hosted by Hans Moller
Married couple, Engineer and Teacher. We enjoy outdoor activities including boating, fishing, snorkeling, bike riding.
Why they chose this property
We invested in our rental-units after visiting Florida Keys for 20 years. We decided that Marathon, Grassy Key, is the ultimate Keys location. People are nice and relaxed, it is the place you go when you want to get away from the “rat-race”. Fishing, Lobstering and snorkeling is phenomenal. While Islamorada and Key West are fun places to visit, you will find the Marathon area more quiet, it's the best part of the Florida Keys. Key West is only an hour drive away, take a day-trip.
What makes this property unique
Provides more of a good old days Keys experience. But we also provide the modern comforts with AC, TV, WiFi Enjoy our private setting. Listen to the birds, gaze at the stars at night, mingle with friendly people who are in the Keys to have a relaxing good time. A dock can be rented for $25/night (max 25 foot, Boat insurance is required)
