This VRBO was perfect for our family. We had an excellent stay. Lots of extra amenities were available that added so much to our trip. We really enjoyed the beach club and kayaking around the area. The communication was great and the hosts were incredibly nice. Highly recommend.

Thank you for taking such great care of our home and it’s satisfying knowing that you filled it with lovely memories.
This property had everything we needed for a great vacation! The location is great for boaters with very easy access to the Gulf and Atlantic. The dock fit our 25’ boat but can definitely accommodate a larger one. Our 29’ trailer also fit in the driveway however anything larger than that will not. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook meals. The bait freezer and outdoor fridge was great to have for all of our lobster and fish caught. Joe was wonderful to work with from ownership changes, check in and even when we had a question. We’d happily rebook again.
Joe was an amazing host. Would recommend to anyone. Can’t wait to come back next year. Especially loved the pool, hot tub and beach at cabana club.

Thank you so much for the review. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. We truly appreciate you leaving the house so clean and SPOTLESS.. guests like you are such a blessing to host. We’d love to welcome you back again any time ! 😊
Our stay at Keys Escape was a great experience. The house was very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities needed. It was great to have use of the beach chairs, cooler and bicycles. The Cabana club was a plus. We enjoyed sitting on the patio for morning coffee and evening cocktails. Even had a couple great meals on the grill. Joe was a great host. He checked in with us a few times during our stay. We look forward to staying at Keys Escape in the future.

Very central to everything in Marathon. Key Colony Brach is a safe, beautiful community. House is well equipped with everything we needed. Fun to be on a canal. Lots of birds to watch. Having the use of bicycles and the Cabana Club was wonderful.
What a fantastic home away from home! Everything you could possibly need is already there. From kitchen appliances, dishes, and cookware, to beach towels, hammocks, kayaks, bikes, life jackets, and sand toys - there was never something we wished we had that wasn’t there. We didn’t even have time to use all the included things. We loved having access to the cabana club, taking in the sunset at sunset park and checking each night for what fish we could see in the canal. The lights strung on the pergola made it the perfect spot to hang out every evening to enjoy the weather and family time. The house was clean and very comfortable. Joe was great to communicate with and gave wonderful tips and suggestions when asked. We would 100% stay here again and again!

Thank you so much for taking the time and writing this review. I am truly happy your trip was comfortable, fun and your family made great memories in our home. We’d love to welcome you back ANYTIME!
The house was just as advertised. We were very pleased with the cleanliness and convenience of its location. Docking space for our boat was great as well.
The property really had everything we needed or could want. The canal was gorgeous and the provided hammocks were a huge hit to just lay in the breeze. We really enjoyed our stay!

I wish you would have asked about the AC, there are settings that can lower the noise but glad you enjoyed your stay!
