About this property

2 Incredible Waterfront Homes - One Low Price!

Full Duplex with two 2-bedroom, 2-bath homes both with unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico. This is a great property for vacationing with family and friends. This is a really nice set up when vacationing with 2 families or groups with varying activity levels because it allows everyone to hang together during the day, but retreat to their own place at the end of the night when they are ready to wind down.

Looking for a quiet place to relax, fish, kayak and swim that sleeps 8-10 - you've found a very economical option with an incredible view. Take a dip in this crystal clear lagoon free of the noise and congestion you'd encounter on many of the canal homes. Or grab one of our free ocean kayaks, your fins and a mask and explore the crystal clear Gulf. Wide open water views from every window from the living areas of both homes. Newly furnished comfortable interior with all the amenities you'd expect.

This property overlooks a large water cove, deepest point is 25 feet. So much marine life to enjoy right from the dock, including tarpon tailing, manatees, rays and porpoises and snapper.

A neighborhood boat ramp is nearby and it's easy boat access to to our deep water dock that can accommodate your boat or a rental boat in the water. Beyond the cove is the Gulf of Mexico, to the 5 minutes to the east is Vaca Cut ocean access and 10 minutes to the west 7-Mile bridge ocean access.

Relax under a palm tree and take in the sunset, manatees and dolphin. The property includes outdoor dining tables, lounging furniture and hammock.

The homes each have a master bedroom with an en suite bathroom. The guest bedrooms have twin beds, and the living room a pull out queen sofa. Full modern kitchens and lots of storage, cookware, blender, etc. Bedding/linens included. High-speed wireless internet, flat screen TVs.

This rental also includes two 2-person ocean kayaks, beach cruiser bikes, fish cleaning table, fish/bait freezer, gas grills.

Parking available for up to 4 vehicles and 2 boat trailer onsite.

Great property
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the property. The location was great! Beautiful view of cove. The only issue we had was the lack of basic supplies upon arrival…toilet paper, paper towels. Overall however, it was a great experience and I would recommend the property to anyone looking for a nice, centrally located property.

Fantastic stay
Very clean! Attentive hosts! We rented both sides of the duplex. Plenty of space for all- we had 9 adults and 2 children. We brought 2 boats with us. Plenty of dock area with hoses for washing the boats and equipment off. We really enjoyed the view, as well as the wildlife that we saw in the cove: we saw manatees, tarpon, Iguanas, and turtles galore! Great sunsets. Close to everything. The owner sent a list of restaurants, shopping and things to do that was very helpful. Would stay here again!!!

About the host

Hosted by Joe Curley

Host profile image
I am a married father of two, avid hockey player and fishing enthusiast with a successful track record in waterfront real estate operations and investments. I had always enjoyed my visit to the Keys over the years as I just found the area so unique. I thought it be cool to have a place in the keys that I could use when I visited. Crystal clear waters with sandy white bottoms, warm temps year round, incredible water views, the best fishing and diving available in the Continental U.S. I couldn't think of a better place to own a vacation home. While searching for that perfect Keys home, and having rented homes for my own vacations in the past, I made the decision to only buy a home that could also be a vacation rental. This meant that it had to have an open water view, good accessible dock, and that could be legally rented by the week. I purchase my first property in the City of Marathon in 2009. Today I run a small successful vacation home rental business with 5 homes with my wife Mary.

Why I chose Marathon, FL

Marathon's central location in the Middle Keys was the clear choice. Investment was starting to come into the area after the economic recession. Far enough away from the hustles of life but with the conveniences most people want when they vacation. Marathon was also one of the few areas of the Keys where you can rent homes by the week. All the basic necessities to call it home for many with 2 grocery stores, a Home Depot, library, parks and marine oriented businesses plus a few dozen restaurants/bars, boat rentals, charters and dive shops for its vibrant tourism industry.

So much to do right within the city limits or your backyard if you rent one of our homes. Visit historic Key West, less than an hour drive away.

Why they chose this property

Purchased in 2009, this home sits on a quiet crystal clear saltwater cove - we like it so much we bought two more homes on his cove in 2011. The home has great water views from every point in the main living area. Unobstructed view of Gulf of Mexico, easy deep water access to our dock, and a relaxing tropical setting and great outdoor experience

What makes this property unique

Great open water view, easy open water access, deep water dock on a protective cove - all at an economical price. With this full duplex our guests get two beautifully decorated and very comfortable homes on the same property. This is a great set-up when vacationing with large groups or extended family with varying energy levels. Hang out together all day but retreat to your own private residence at the end of the day - or party together - it's your choice because it's all yours when you're vacationing at this great property. All the amenities of home. Two full kitchen with custom cabinets and granite counter, full dining areas, comfortable couches, flat screen TVs, premium cable, high-speed wireless internet access, and phones. It's of course stocked with all the kitchen ware, linens, and towels. I also offer kayaks and bikes for your recreation
