Why the Owner Chose Marathon
I vacationed in marathon for years. I rented houses that looked good on the web, but didn't live up to the billing. So I thought "I could do better"...
"My husband and I stayed at the Palm Breezes in Marathon with 3 other couples. It was a wonderful experience - the house is spacious, very nicely decorated, and has all the luxuries of home. We loved the waterfall pool and spents hours in it daily. We caught a large fish in the canal, and even enjoyed eating some of the coconuts we found on the ground. A+ rental."
Cynthia Dennis, Beaufort, SC
"I had my wedding at Palm Breezes House. The house is spacious. My entire family was able to eat indoors when the rain started (28 of us). The house is a "home away from home". You can tell this is personal to the owner... not just an investment. There are pictures of past renters on the walls. Tim said he was going to post our wedding picture so we could come back to see it.

We just spent a fantastic week at Tim's house in Marathon. It was one of the best vacations we have ever taken there.(was our 5th trip) Tim's house is BEAUTIFUL the pictures on web site doesn't begin to do it justice. It was very clean when we arrived well maintained everything that was promised. I would definetly recomend this to anyone. Pool guy "Mike" was very helpful in ansewering our questions about kayak rental he was even going to let us use his but we needed two. Pool area was great hot tub worked very nicely. We had quite a few people with us, a sort of family reunion, house was so big you need not run into anyone if you dont choose too.You could almost stay there entire week and never leave if you didnt want. We made two trips to Key West very conviently located half way between Key West and Miami.We rented a boat for week from Tropical Marina they delivered boat to dock at house was great price very nice guy to do business with. Anyone wanting to stay in Keys for vacation this is perfect place to do it. Tim has a great house and delivers all he says it is, He has a great place beautifully maintained, decorated and comfortable. Everything in house top of line. Not your standard rental. By the way Tim, the Lobster Reuben rocked. Larue Family. 10/20/2011

We have been vacationaing in the Key's now for 5 years and this was hands down our favorite place! It was everything and MORE than advertised!! It was very clean and well maintained. We had 3 family's plus my aunt and grandmother and still had plenty of room. We never once felt crowded or like we were running over each other. We had plenty of sleeping space and comfy beds for all. The kitchen was large with lots of cooking and counter top space. The view from the screen porch was awesome and we spent every morning and evening watching the sun rise and set. We had two boats with us and had plenty of room for at least a couple more. Had a blast playing cornhole so make sure you bring your bean bags!! The pool and jacuzzi were awesome too and we spent many hours in them both. Tim (the owner) was very helpful and gave us some great suggestions on some local hot spots. Thanks Tim!! We all agreed it was our best family vacation ever!! I'd recommend the Palm Breeze House to everyone!!

Had a great week in the Palm Breezes House! Everything was just as advertised. We had 3 couples and another adult in the house for my wife's 40th birthday family get-together. Plenty of room for all. The kitchen was great... Everybody in the family cooks, and the kitchen was outfitted really well. We spent one day hanging at the pool... Very relaxing. And the screened porch was a great place to hang out. The location was fantastic - An hour from both Key Largo and Key West. We checked out Keys Fisheries at the owner's recommendation... Great place to catch a sunset and the lobster Reuben sandwich really IS fantastic! We did a couple of days of diving; we really liked Silent World up in Key Largo. We dove Key Largo Dry Rocks and North North Dry Rocks in Pennekamp State Park. Not deep but gorgeous! We will definitely rent this again when we next visit the Keys, and we highly recommend to all!

Our group just enjoyed our 2 week stay at this perfect place in the keys! The house was even better than we expected. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms large. There is plenty of room for all. All 8 of us ate our breakfast on the screened porch daily. The front porch was perfect for late afternoon reading/resting area away from others. The yard is extremely large for a Keys rental, and loaded with palm trees for shade. The pool area couldn't have been nicer. The house was very private since it is on a corner lot. Close to grocery stores and restaurants. The best is the Sunset Grill just before 7 mile bridge. This was our first time dealing directly with the owner, and it was easy with Tim. We will do it again. We hope to stay again next year.

This was our second time vacationing in Marathon, but our first time at Tim's house. Wish we would have found Tim's house the first time. What a great place to stay!!! We had 8 adults and 2 children, there was plenty of room to move around. The view from the pool was amazing. We brought 2 boats and had great access to the Gulf and the Atlantic side. At night time you have a 5 min boat ride to a beautiful sunset every night. We were visited by a white heron, 2 manatees, and a giant lizard wanting a drink from the pool. Fishing was good off shore and from the dock. Thanks Tim for having a great house!!!

My husband and I were planning a destination wedding in the keys and were lucky enough to stumble upon Tim's house on this website while looking for a place to stay. His property was so beautiful that we decided to have the wedding there, with Tim's blessing, instead of the nearby beach. Our friends and family were amazed at how great the house was, the pictures are great but they don't do it justice. It has tons of amenities, more than enough room, beautiful views and conveniently located in the center of the keys so you can see them all within an hour drive. We were even visited by a white heron and manatee while we were there. The pool and hot tub were awesome. The best part was Tim's excellent communication, he was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had, which is why we decided to rent from him in the first place. We will definitely be back soon. Thank you Tim for helping us make our special day unforgettable!!!

It was a great vacation experience from beginning to end! The house was roomy & well maintained. From the beginning Tim was very helpful & kept us well informed. It was a pleasure working with him. We found the home to live up to its description. The best part was the great breezes & view from the pool area. Weekend days were a little loud due to a private airport nearby but it did not take away from relaxing at the pool. I believe they have flight time restrictions & the week's flight schedule was not busy. The downstairs is private & has a sepearte entrance. This is nice for the those who would like to have more quiet or privacy. The cleaning service was great. I had left several pieces of jewlery at the rental & Kim(from cleaning) was kind enough to retreive them & mail them to me. She is very thoughtful & does a great job maintaining the home. We were not fortunate enough to see any manatees but we did have a friendly white heron visit us everyday & spend the day at the pool with us. We also rented a center console boat for several days & access to the gulf was easy. But I seemed to have more luck fishing off the sea wall than the guys did out on the boat. We enjoyed most of the days right at the pool & for lunch we headed out on the boat. We found a place called Sparky's, a laid back & a fun place we could dock & enjoy lunch on the water. We recommend Tropical Boat Rentals in Marathon for a boat rental, they negoiate a great deal for weekly rentals. The location of the house is great! The home is located right near a shulttle(across from Walgreens) that takes you round trip from Marathon to Key West, only $8 per person round trip. It runs all week & various times of the day. They will drop you right at Duval street. I believe the latest return is 9:30 pm & It does take a little longer to shuttle but it was well worth it for us. I believe it even picks up near the Key West airport which I will look into on our next visit. The home is located near shopping as well. Overall this was a great experience & it was great to have such personal service. We would definitely rent from Tim again. We would like to thank Tim & a special thanks to Kim.

We just spent a week at the Palm Breezes house, and what a great week it was! Our family of ten thoroughly enjoyed our annual winter get away to the Keys. The house lived up to the pictures in every way. We all had spacious bedrooms, a well-appointed kitchen, wonderful hot tub and a lovely pool. We were able to catch fish from the seawall and see the manatees who came in for a drink of water from the hose. We were minutes from all of the great resteraunts in Marathon, but spent most of our time hanging out at the beautiful Palm Breezes house. We will definately return! Thanks for everything Tim.

wow-finally a place we can return to...we were a family of 10 who have been looking forever to find the place to be-thanks tim! we found it! we hope to come back again next year... i do have to say that the pictures do no justice to this home...it was more wonderful than we thought it would be... we were also lucky enough to meet tim-he was in marathon for a quick weekend and came by to check on something that the previous renters had found to be an issue...talk about quick response! the pool & hot tub were great, the game room was the central area of most of the week-when we weren't playing cornhole or fishing or swimming ;) we caught tons of fish off the dock (2 were even keepers lol) and saw manatee almost every day of our stay...unbelievable!! thanks again, tim, for sharing your home!!

We absolutely loved your home and thank you for sharing it with us. We will definately be in touch to book again next year. There were four couples and we found the house roomy and lots of privacy for each of us if we desired to have it. Found the kitchen easy to work in with eight people under foot. Loved the delightful pool with waterfall and hot tub. House conveint to shopping and the many restauraats We also enjoyed the screened in porch for breakfast and coctails .
