Very welcoming and easy to follow check in and check out procedures. The place was very clean and very well stocked with everything you need. Pool was nice and comes with quite a few floating toys. We had 10 people and never did we feel crowded.
Stayed at this property with friends for Memorial Day week. We all agreed this was the nicest, most functional, most well-equipped rental we've ever stayed at. Great spaces for the adults and kids to be together, or apart, as we wanted and needed. The pool was perfect. We used the kitchen several nights. The central Keys location also could not be beat.The rental was spotless. Everything worked correctly.We have all said that if we do another group FL Keys vacation, we will look for this property specifically.
This amazing, high-end home was perfect for our two families (5 kids). The property offered stunning sunrises, a pool, and a fishing dock. It was incredibly comfortable, fully stocked with high-end appliances and amenities, and the host was super responsive. Highly recommended for a relaxing, luxurious vacation.
Kelly was amazing from the very start. Her enthusiasm for this beautiful property is contagious. Lazy Manatee is exactly as pictured, immaculate, luxurious, comfortable and homely. The pool is amazing and our family spent loads of time playing and relaxing in the crystal clear pool. The outdoor space is ideal, plenty of sunny areas and plenty of shaded areas too with the outdoor TV being an added bonus. Marathon is a brilliant family getaway with something to suit all ages. Our two youngest especially loved the Dolphin Research Centre where they spent playtime in the water with the dolphins. Sombrero Beach is wonderful too.
This house did not disappoint. The photos are recent, not like what we have seen in past houses. Everything was beautiful! The pool actually felt heated. They also have bug stray unit which saved me from itching all week. Multiple washer and dryer’s. Multiple dish washers awesome! Enough pool chairs and towels for 8 people. Enjoyed playing favorite games like frogger and pac man plus many more on the gaming unit provided. Great location, close to stores but still tucked away on quiet street. We would definitely stay here again when our travels bring us back to this area. You should give it a try. The host was most delightful to work with. Can’t say enough about how much our group enjoyed this property! The time spent here was fun but too short. Thanks for sharing your wonderful home with us! Diane R.
