GORGEOUS HOME

Date of Stay: 01/26/12
Review Submitted: 01/26/12
Our family has vacationed here for the last two years and I would say it by far the best rental we have had the pleasure of occupying. Cairn is very generous to share her home and I would highly recommend staying here when visiting Marathon. Fishing is excellent, views spectacular and if you are like me you can just bring in your essentials and not have to leave the place all week. Everyone loved it and we plan on returning for another family get together. We have rented alot of different places and the Orchid Villa is definitely up there on the top. Loved it!

Our family from Connecticut and my parents and sister from Florida met at this beautiful house for a week's vacation. The accommodations were amazing. The house was roomy and immaculately clean. The views from every room were spectacular. The kitchen was spacious and full of amenities. We fished and snorkeled off the dock. We swam in the pool and soaked in the hot tub. We also kayaked in the Gulf. The owners were very helpful and I would highly recommend this property.
