Communications were great overall. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Susan L. Stayed 11 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alicia B. Mar 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Paradise on the bay This duplex was the perfect location as our base camp for exploring the keys. It's located on a bay instead of the narrow canal views that many homes in the area have. Sunrise is amazing from the covered back porch or on the dock. We saw dolphins and manatees from the dock as well. The beds were comfortable and having two full bathrooms was perfect. We also enjoyed using the fishing poles at the house to fish from the dock. The internet was quick, Netflix was on the TV to use, and a starter pack of paper goods was provided. There are multiple restaurants in walking distance, or use the two bikes at the house. We'll definitely be back!! ##### Alicia B. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tammy W. Mar 2, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Relaxing & Nice but Lacking We visit Key Colony often and were super excited to find this home with great amenities such as the small fenced in yard for our pups and access to the Cabana Club. It was mostly a great experience but definitely some touches that need to be improved. For instance, the outdoor ice machine doesn’t work (the neighbors were planning on using and were disappointed). Only the TV in the living room worked, the one in the guest room had a poor quality, pixelated screen and we couldn’t get the one in the master bedroom to work at all. It wasn’t even plugged in when we arrived, when I did plug it in, it seemed to cause some other electrical issues. It was a bit taxing to have to remember a 10 digit code for entry into the home all the time, would be nice to have a shorter code. Shower in master doesn’t have curtain so there’s a fair amount of water that splashes out into the small bathroom. The toaster took a good 10 minutes to lightly toast bread. We couldn’t use the oven as it seemed turning it on caused the fire alarm to chirp or go off even before the oven was up to temperature. Walls are rather think between the duplexes so we had the joy of hearing our neighbors movies every night til around midnight. Not sure if it was thin walls or their TV up loud or a combo but just something to be aware of. The vacuum cleaner had zero suction, even after cleaning out the clumps of fur and what looked like leaves from the backyard we still weren’t able to use it to clean the property. ##### Tammy W.

He went out of his way to provide us with tips on things to do and was very responsive in general. The duplex itself is an ideal spot for those with a boat, right on the water with a dock in the backyard. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy the keys! ##### Austin W.

Mar 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect vacation home! Everything about this home was perfect! The rooms were spacious and comfortable and being right on the water made for wonderful mornings in the sun, sipping coffee and relaxing. There are fishing poles to use and my son and husband used them for hours (frozen shrimp did the trick to catch a variety of things). The home was very quiet-never heard our neighbors. The owner responded very quickly to any questions I had. Being able to use the Cabana Club was a bonus and we spent a day there lounging on the beach. I would rent this again if ever in the area. ##### lori d.

This is our second time to stay in Key Colony, and the first time in this property. We loved how easy it was to zip in and out of the neighborhood from this location. We had everything we needed indoors and out. Could be the best vrbo bed we've slept on, and we've slept on a lot of them! We were worried at first that noise from the Causeway would be an issue. It wasn't - didn't hear it at all from either the inside of the house or the back yard. You can't beat starting you day off watching the sunrise from the back porch. Magical! ##### Irene L.

The 2 bathrooms were so modern and bright. The place was immaculate, comfortable and well stocked for all your needs. The ice machine was a huge bonus as you need plenty of ice for daily fishing excursions. I would highly recommend this property and most definitely consider it again for next year if we decide to go back to Marathon. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa B.

It was also down the road from a boat rental and bait shop, making it so easy to rent a boat conveniently and fish. It was so nice to have the dock in the back yard making it so nice to fish and see some manatees. The fence in the back yard made it super dog friendly. The property was so clean and maintained and bed was comfy. I would highly recommend this place to enjoy the keys. ##### Lisa B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P.

This location had beautiful sunrises and is also a short bike ride from great restaurants. It was a very comfortable home and tastefully decorated. The owner was just a text/phone call away if we needed anything. We would love to stay here again! ##### Stacey J. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### gary r.

We really enjoyed our time in the Keys! Since this house is waterfront, the breezes are constant and great. Great view, awesome yard for our dog to run around in. We enjoyed sitting on the porch while he ran around. Really quiet on the inside, couldn’t hear the busy road at all! House has pretty much everything we needed. Owner was super responsive! ##### Jennifer K. Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie R.

Location was great, house is awesome! So close to everything. One suggestion, avoid the Cabana Club. Staff is not customer service friendly, they are down right nasty. We will be back ! ##### Phillip W. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rita M.
