Private Pool, 40’ Dock, Tiki Hut, Open Water Views

Mana-Tiki Bay





Stop! You’ve found it. This is the one. Mana-Tiki Bay checks all the boxes! Named after the mammals that frequently visit and can be spotted from the outdoor tiki hut, this home is centrally located near the best shopping, restaurants & marinas Marathon has to offer. This stylish 3/2 canal front home features a private swimming pool large enough for the kids to play and breathtaking open water views that can be enjoyed while swimming or soaking in the sun from one of the outdoor loungers. Waterside you’ll also find the famous tiki hut with room to entertain or enjoy your freshly grilled catch (courtesy of our BBQ Grill). Beneath the palm trees, you’ll also find an elevated putting green, in case you’re itching to knock a few strokes off your golf-game.

The interior of the home is island inspired with chic decor and a simplistic design. The convenient layout makes entertaining easy. You’ll find a fully stocked kitchen with water views over the sink, a living room that connects to a screened in patio, and the dining room with an abundance of natural light seeping in via the hurricane force windows. Each bedroom is just as thoughtfully decorated. The master with King bed and en-suite bath is a lovely retreat after a long day of enjoying the beautiful Florida weather. The second bedroom features a Queen bed with Twin trundle and the third bedroom also features a Queen bed. Near the kitchen you’ll also find the laundry room with washer and dryer.



Marathon is known for it’s world class fishing, and not only can you see the Gulf of Mexico from your kitchen sink, but you can be in the Atlantic Ocean via Vaca Cut in less than a few minutes. If you’d like to get your toes in the sand, Coco Plum & Sombrero Beach are also just a couple miles away and there is also a public boat ramp just under one mile from the home.

House was very clean and met all our needs. Backyard, pool, and tiki hut were well used. Being right on the water allowed us to fish and see manatee’s daily. Used the kayaks to explore surrounding waters. Location was convenient to all our needs. Communication with the rental agency was prompt and informative. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Family House!

Our host Bert was great! The house was as pictured and we really enjoyed the back yard with the pool and putting green. An extra bonus were the kayaks. All in all a wonderful place to stay!

Location in Paradise

Our stay was delightful, with stunning sunset views over the canal. The house comfortably accommodated our family, and the spacious dock was perfect for our boat. We would be thrilled to stay here again.

Property was exactly as listed. Amenities were perfect, views were amazing, and having a private pool was great. Our family had an amazing time in the Keys, and having a wonderful place to stay and great communication with the owner made the trip even more exceptional. We will be back! Thanks Keyscation.

Christmas in Key Marathon

Our stay was excellent the property manager was so responsive. I only wish I realized earlier that we could pay to get the pool heated as the water was really cold. The listing says house accommodates 8 people which is really not the case. The house was well equipped and the kayaks were very fun. We saw so many manatees it was amazing. The furniture was very comfortable and location was great - outdoor space amazing if only the weather cooperated! We enjoyed our time there.

Stop Looking—You’ve Found It!!

Wise advice from the posting which we took! This property is clean, well laid out, beautifully decorated, and has a gorgeous ocean view. We were in the pool everyday, and easily docked a rental boat on the sea wall. We were treated to Manatee and tarpon in the canal daily. Out in the bay just beyond the canal we saw rays and sea turtles. The beds and other furnishings were comfortable and we enjoyed a lot of time out in the screened porch. The only drawback was noise from deliveries at businesses across the street and the nearby airport during the day, but all was quiet at night. Given the chance, we would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!!

Wonderful House

Perfect and just as advertised. House had everything needed. The pool was a nice addition to come home to after a hot day on the water. The neighbors to the right were wonderful as well and invited us over. The house is on a fairly busy street with the back of commercial businesses in front of the house. A couple days, there were large trucks making deliveries, but this did not bother or interrupt our stay. If back in Marathon again, will consider this property again. Thanks for the stay.
