Guestbook comments from the host:

The property manager, Mary was awesome!! Very responsive and quick to answer questions! Very nice!


Jan 2025

Our family of 6 came down for a week’s stay. We had such an amazing time! Property was immaculate and beds were comfortable. Could’ve stayed all week without leaving. Hot tub and pool were just the perfect mix. We had a blast fishing and snorkeling from the dock. Mary and Claire were awesome hosts! Will be back!


Nov 2024

This was the perfect house to enjoy a trip to the keys with family. I woke up each morning looking out at the ocean. You can fish as the sun rises, go in and eat breakfast, then go out and snorkel. The house location is perfect for a day trip to Key West and many state parks. You could easily relax, fish, and snorkel right off the dock all week and never need to leave.


Oct 2023

The house was clean and comfortable for all six of us, with everything you need to enjoy Marathon and the surrounding keys.
We also enjoyed the dock, pool and hot tub; especially, after boating all day.
You need to see the sunsets! Phenomenal!


Jul 2023

We have stayed in many vacation rentals but our family agreed this was our favorite! The house is comfortable and well supplied with towels and kitchenware. As with many rentals, it has a little wear and tear, but it is very well maintained. The outdoor space is spectacular. I don’t know if we can ever be satisfied with canal front houses after being waterfront. The sunsets are fantastic!


Mar 2023

We had a great stay in marathon, highly recommend for families. Exceptional location. Fourth bedroom is detached, great for teens, perhaps not as much so for smaller kids. Worked out for us great. Mary the host is fantastic.


Jan 2023

We spent the week of Thanksgiving in this home with our children and grandchildren. The set up for this home was perfect for us with no direct access to the pool or water from the main living space without exiting through the main door and through a fenced area. This was very important to us traveling with small children and again an ideal set up for our group. There is one bedroom/bathroom downstairs with it’s own entrance that was a great quiet space for our son and his girlfriend without children. The pool and hot tub right on the water was perfect. Mary was great to work with. Perfect family trip, wish it was longer!


Dec 2022

We had three couples and the house was plenty big enough. The view was simply beautiful. After two weeks we weren't ready to leave.


Nov 2022

Our group of 8 guys really enjoyed this home and back yard. The pool and hot tub were a great escape from the summer heat and there was plenty of shaded outdoor space for cooking and eating. The dock easily accommodated our 23’ boat. The host even replaced the grill for us when we realized the existing grill was not usable. Great host and home. We will hopefully be back again!


Jul 2022

We loved the house and really enjoyed the stay. We like fishing off the dock but this dock could use some improvement. Also the bathrooms are a little cramped but everything worked great. The Pool, Palm Trees, and sunsets were great.


May 2022

Immaculate and perfect for what we were looking for! Thank you!


Nov 2021

We booked this property because of the amazing view. The house is older and has some deferred maintenance but it's all you really need. Nice pool, hot tub & screened porch. The dock is not really suited for a boat (only one cleat and on the open water so difficult with any wind) but is an awesome spot to fish & watch the sunset! The property manager was kind and responsive. The location was great. Plenty of room for our family of 6.


Nov 2021

This is our group's 10th year vacationing on an island somewhere in the US and this was the best house to date. From the location and neighborhood to waterfront access and dock, we didn't want for anything. We saw lots of fish and manatee from the dock, enjoyed the hot tub daily, and loved the screened porch for meals. The outdoor living area was pretty awesome with a covered patio, pool, deck chairs, hot tub, and fish cleaning table. Outside of the normal things you would bring on vacation, make sure to have a headlamp if you plan to be on the dock at night.


Nov 2021

We enjoyed our stay. Mary was amazing. They had extra ac units in each room which we loved because it’s always hot in the keys. The neighborhood is nice and felt safe, loved the everyday view! There was Very minimal kitchen supplies and the tub stoppers in the bath doesn’t work in either bathtubs so that was a pain as we have 3 kids under the age of 6 trying to take baths every night. Other than that we didn’t really have any complaints about the house! And we really enjoyed booking and deal with Mary! She made our stay super easy and relaxing and the pies were so good that she left !!


Aug 2021

This house was perfect for my family. My parents stayed on the lower level. They are in there 70’s and 80’s. There were 8 of us and we had plenty of room. The location is close to everything, the amenities at the house are wonderful!! (The pool, hot tub, snorkeling at the dock, paddle boarding , kayaking) the property manager is also very helpful and quick to respond. So happy we chose tropical sunset for our stay.


Jun 2021

The property manager, Mary, was wonderful. She helped immediately with any questions or issues either by a phone call or text. This was our first time in the Keys and we were like we were in Paradise. We loved spending time at the home. We did ride down to Key West on our motorcycles one day but other than that, our time was spent at the home. We enjoyed ourselves and would definitely come back. Thank you for everything and especially the memories!


Mar 2021

Everything was perfect!! Having a pool on the gulf with a dock for our boat was the best vacation we have taken yet. We go on a family vacation every year for a week and we will definitely be considering this one again.

Perfect for our family

Spacious clean large family home with everything we needed! The pool, hot tub was lovely. We rented a boat and the dock was perfect. The kids swam off the dock, as a ladder was on the seawall. There is 2 grocery stores and tons of restaurants within blocks from the house. Many activities locally. It was close to Islamorada with out feeling the cramped touristy feel and 1 hour from Key west, so its a perfect location for us. The property management (Mary) was very communicative and check in and out was a breeze.
