About this property
“RENOVATED Gorgeous House with ocean views from balconies, with Hot Tub & Pool”
City of Marathon license VACA-20-1026 VRBO property ID # 970138
Gorgeous 4 bedrooms, 4 full bath house plus 1/2 bath located on exclusive PRIVATE & GATED Tingler island in Marathon FL, Sombrero beach. The whole group will enjoy easy access to everything from this centrally located place.
🏝 The Property
From the moment you arrive at this stunning private island retreat, you’ll feel the world melt away. Tucked behind a secure gate on exclusive Tingler Island, this newly renovated 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath sanctuary blends sleek modern luxury with laid-back Keys charm. Every detail was thoughtfully designed during its 2024 transformation—from airy, sun-soaked interiors to outdoor living spaces made for unforgettable moments. Start your mornings with a coffee in hand on the ocean-facing balcony just off the kitchen, watching the water come alive. Spend your days floating in the sparkling pool or soaking in the private Jacuzzi tucked just steps away, perfect for an intimate and tranquil escape.
For those who crave a little action, challenge your guests to a game of ping pong on the shaded first floor, or head upstairs where a pool table sits right off the open-concept kitchen and dining room—because here, fun and connection are built into every level. Two expansive third-floor balconies give you options: one overlooking the dock and pool for sunbathing or cocktails, and one facing the ocean for sunrise breakfasts with a view. Climb even higher to the 4th-floor observation deck, where 360-degree panoramic views of the shimmering Atlantic and the lush landscape stretch as far as the eye can see—a front-row seat to the Keys’ most breathtaking sunsets.
And when it’s time to venture out, your 60-ft private dock awaits, complete with a professional-grade fish cleaning station and space for your boat or jet skis. With room for 10 cars or even a trailer, there’s no need to leave your toys behind. ***The canal entrance does get low to about 2ft at low tide.***
🏖 Location, Location, Location This home offers a rare combination of seclusion and accessibility. You're just:
- 2 minutes by car to Sombrero Beach, one of the most picturesque and swimmable beaches in the Keys - Or a scenic 10-minute kayak paddle through crystal-clear waters right from your dock
Beyond the Backyard: Adventure, Relaxation & Pure Keys Living
This private island escape places you at the crossroads of luxury and adventure. Just minutes from the dock, you’ll find yourself in open water—whether you're heading out to the Atlantic or Gulf, you're perfectly positioned to explore both. Marathon is a world-renowned fishing destination, teeming with mahi, tuna, sailfish, grouper, and more. Snorkeling and diving hotspots like Sombrero Reef and Looe Key are also just a short boat ride away, offering unforgettable encounters with coral reefs, tropical fish, and even sea turtles. Back at the canal, keep an eye out for manatees, dolphins, tarpon, and snook—or just drop a line and let the kids fish right off the dock all afternoon.
Beyond the water, Marathon offers a mix of laid-back charm and convenient access to everything you need. Stock up at Publix, CVS, Walgreens, or gas up for your next outing—all within minutes. When it’s time to dine, you’ll find incredible waterfront restaurants nearby, serving everything from fresh-caught seafood to island cocktails.
Looking for more to explore? You’re within a short drive of beloved local attractions like the Turtle Hospital, Dolphin Research Center, Aquarium Encounters, Pigeon Key, the iconic Seven Mile Bridge, and Curry Hammock State Park. For the bold, local charters offer snorkeling, diving, and sunset cruises, while rental shops nearby can outfit you with kayaks, paddle boards, or bikes for a day of exploring the island on your own terms.
Whether you seek thrills, tranquility, or a mix of both, this destination delivers the best of the Keys—all from the comfort of your own private island retreat.
Guest Access The property has a large drive way that can easily fit 10 cars and 3 covered parking areas under the house. If you are brining a boat, the left side of the property offers plenty of length to store your trailer.
