The real fun is to be had outside! Mirage Manor is its own private oasis. This rental is a private waterfront property located directly on the water’s edge of a canal on the gulf side of Marathon Key. This property is home to 65 feet of dockage and is about a 1/2 mile motor to Vaca Cut. There you have direct access to the open ocean. When on land at Mirage Manor, you can relax right on the waters edge in the Florida Keys sun in the brand new pool and hot tub combo.. Relaxing and socializing ideal in the shade of the huge 57 ft screened double decker porch. There is fun to be had outside with our custom made corn-hole set, dartboard, tiki toss.
Like being in the water and don’t have a boat? Inquire with us when booking your stay about renting one of our deluxe pedal drive Hobie kayaks or SUP’s. These toys are the talk of the town! They propel using a push pedal system instead of using a paddle and your arms. These kayak/SUP’s move by pushing your feet on a special drive shaft like a stair stepper. Steering is possible by controlling the rudder with the flick of a wrist on a knob in the palm of your hand. These premium boats can move at an unexpectedly fast rate by only using your feet to power them. You will be amazed at the distance you can cover with minimal exertion, because they use a stepping motion instead of a cycle motion like other lesser brands. (Check out Hobie Kayak, or Hobie Eclipse, on Youtube for more info.) Additional rental charges will apply and waivers need to be signed, but well worth the fun to be had!

We had a great stay. Everything was as described. The pool was amazing. This wasn't a fancy place but it was clean and comfortable. The lights were a little quirky but no big deal. It was very well supplied with everything. The host was very nice and Check in and out was easy. Cute Caribbean decor throughout the house.
Great communication with Greg, very easy to get a hold of. The pool was Devine! The kitchen was adequately equipped to cook whatever we needed! We enjoyed Mirage Manor!
The property was GREAT! And so was Gregg. The house and the backyard were just like the pictures. My family and I had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this property.
Excellent place to stay in Marathon. We will book this house again. Day one of our stay we had three manatees come up to the seawall for 30 minutes or so. Very easy boat access to either side of the island depending on what type of fishing you want to do. The pool was very nice!
The location is fantastic. The manatees were very cool to watch. Clean, comfortable home with a very nice pool, hot tub, & patio area. We also enjoyed the screened in porch for coffee and dinner.
First of all Gregg is was responsive to any questions and needs. Had a couple of minor issues and it was taken care of immediately. The property is very clean and comfortable. The property has everything you could ask for and has been well thought out by the owner.It is convenient to everything in Marathon. Highly recommended!
Mirage Manor was the perfect week getaway, fun games for the kids and the sleeping arrangements were perfect, pool was the best and jacuzzi even comes with a little bar. Location was perfect and dockage was big only minutes from open ocean. Definitely would stay again!!!
We stayed for a week and enjoyed the pool, hot tub and ocean fishing. The house is very nicely decorated and clean. We will definitely be back for another stay.
This is the second time we have stayed at Mirage Manor. Each time has been a great experience with our host Gregg being very responsive if we had questions. The house has always been clean and comfortable. The pool and hot tub are family favorites and plenty of dock for two boats. I would highly recommend this location.
Although the weather was a little more windy than we would have liked the house was great and the kids had a great time with all the fun games available.
We had such a relaxing week at this lovely property!! Couldn't keep the kids out of the pool. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook our Thanksgiving meal too!
Wonderful experience in marathon. Perfect location for boating, with easy access to the ocean via Vaca Cut... spacious, up-to-date technology, and plenty to do including darts, corn hole, bumper pool. Would definitely go back!

Glad you had fun and you are welcome back anytime !
we had a great time. so did not want to leave. Greg was very helpful very nice and so easy to talk to. we will be back next year but we are going to stay 2 weeks. one week just was not enough.
Gregg property was exactly as pictured. We were two families - 4 adults and 4 kids, aged 7-15 years, spending Christmas in the Keys. The house accommodated us well with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. We did cook meals a few nights - plenty of dishes, pots, pans. The kids had a fun time in the pool and hot tub when we weren't out on excursions. I would definitely stay here again!
Mirage Manor was the perfect house for our family vacation. Having two king sized beds and two full baths was great. The backyard area on the canal was awesome. The pool and hot tub were just perfect for our family. We also spent lots of time on the screened porch. Greg was very thorough with his communication and was a pleasure to rent from. I highly recommend this property!
We vacation in Marathon every summer with the family and feel this was the best fit for our family that we have found to date. We felt the property was extremely well put together as a vacation rental it has darts, cornhole boards, pool, hot tub, plenty of pool toys for the kids etc.
We also thoroughly enjoyed the out door patio for morning and evening meals. The dock space did fit our two 25ft boats perfectly, and its an easy couple minute idle to the gulf and only about 10 minutes from the Atlantic. We will be back !!!
Everything was perfect, great house, clean house. Pool is awesome and gave the kids and adults space. Much of the house operates on google, which makes using the home easy. Nothing we would change. This house is a great home, Manitees even came in everyday to Say “Hi”
We will be back!
My girlfriend and I stayed at Mirage Manor for the entire month in February. The location was mid-way in the keys and allowed us to explore both ends with ease. There’s a great bike trail which is easily accessible from the property. The house was perfect, clean well stocked and centrally located. We brought our boat which was great to have the ability to put it in the canal. We also used their Kayaks which were great. We will come back. Great place and the owner worked with us well and communicated with us timely. Thank you Gregg!

Ben was a pleasure to have as a guest. He treated the house as his own and took great care of it. I’m glad to welcome him and his group anytime to Mirage Manor of Marathon.
I chose this property because it had a pool, hot tub and was on the canal. It’s a beautiful home in a fantastic location. Private, quiet but a short walk away from the main road through town. About an hour from Key West. Tons to do in the immediate area. We visited Sombrero Beach, the Turtle Hospital (a must do), Key West. Had fantastic pizza from Driftwood Pizza. The property owner was easy to deal with and met each of our needs. The house was clean, spacious and comfortable. I would stay there again on a heartbeat. We were visited by a manatee two different days. Lots of fish to view in the canal. Even saw a jellyfish. Husband was visited by an iguana one morning.
We had such a great stay in Marathon! There were six of us, and the house was perfect for our group. It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had plenty of seating areas for everyone to relax and hang out together.One of the things we loved most was how much there was to do right at the house—darts, cornhole, water games, and more. It made it so easy to enjoy downtime without even leaving. The location was also ideal, with boat ramps just a short drive away, which made getting out on the water super convenient.We really enjoyed having the bikes available and used them a few times during our stay. The only small suggestion would be maybe adding a couple more bikes, as four would have been perfect for our group—but this definitely didn’t take away from our experience.Check-in and check-out were incredibly easy, which we always appreciate. Gregg is an amazing host and very easy to work with. One of the biggest highlights for us was that the home is dog-friendly—we were so happy to be able to bring our pups along for the trip!If we had one small suggestion, it would be to provide a bit more of the basic supplies like dish soap, paper towels, and toilet paper. Not a complaint at all—just something that would make things even more convenient, especially when traveling in the Keys.Overall, we had a wonderful stay and plan to absolutely come back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a well located place in Marathon. Thanks Again Gregg, until next time.

About the host
Hosted by Gregg Kobrin
My name is Gregg and I will be available by cell, text or email for any questions or concerns prior to or throughout vacation. I will be up in Connecticut while you are enjoying your stay . I have a local contact should you need anything while you enjoy Mirage Manor.
While living in CT my family runs and manages New England Dive, which is the largest scuba shop in all of New England. We sell and service all major brands of Scuba gear and would be glad to supply anything you need for your trip. We are also a Hobie kayak dealer and stock a lot of fishing gear too If you need any gear for any of these watersports then we can ship it down and have it there for your vacation.
Why they chose this property
Mirage Manor is walking distance to Rt 1 at mile marker 52.5. There is a public bus stop there or if you drive left or right on RT 1 and you'll find a sea of restaurants, as well as grocery stores, pharmacy, gift shops and even a Home Depot!. Local Taxis can take you anywhere cheaper than UBER, but if you drive you'll find your way around fast and its hard to get lost one there is only one main road.
What makes this property unique
Mirage Manor is on a dead end street and dead end of canal so you can have your privacy, but make friends as you cruise out onto the water. The neighborhood is on a small set of canals on the bay aka Gulf side of Marathon. Being only 1/2 mile from the Vaca cut makes it the premier spot to cut thru to the ocean by boat.
In the keys Rt 1 is basically the main drag and it goes by Mile Markers. Mile Marker 52.5 marks the spot and will put you right by a pharmacy, restaurants, bars, department store, food places or a bank. You are also near a variety of bait shops, fishing charters and scuba shops. If you have children you can also visit Sombrero beach, which is the largest beach in all of the keys. There is a playground at Sombrero and another playground on rt 1 called Childrens Rotary park. Other famous attractions of Marathon are the Dolphin Research Center Turtle Hospital or the Aquarium Encounters.
At Mirage Manor you will find all your major amenities including but not limited to Iron and ironing board, Hair dryer, sheets, blankets, towels (both bath and beach), air fryer, coffee maker, blender, toaster, all pots, pans, dishes, utensils, bowls and cups etc There is also have a pack n play crib, high chair and stroller if you are bringing your little ones.
