Marathon Magic
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
What's better than a Marathon getaway when it comes to coastal adventures and dreamy days of sweet sunshine? Treat yourself to a perfect getaway and make this stunning retreat your home base today, as it boasts four spacious bedrooms, room for a boat on the private, 25-foot dock, a private pool (heating available), and gorgeous views! The interior is filled with beachy decor, natural light, and a fully equipped kitchen for preparing tasty meals, yet each day can mainly be spent outside reminiscing over a cold drink on the covered deck, tanning by the pool, or grilling up some burgers on the private gas grill! When it is time to settle down, everyone can hang out at the round table for a game night, watch a movie in the living area, or hit the hay in one of four bedrooms boasting queen beds in three and a double in the last bedroom.
What's nearby:
This location couldn't get much better, as you will have easy access to open waters for boating, fishing, swimming, and exploring the Keys! When you want to venture away from home base, be sure to check out the Turtle Hospital, Florida Keys Aquarium Adventure, and the Dolphin Research Center. Be sure to explore some of the nearby water sport activities like kayaking, paddle boarding, and snorkeling. Plus, you can easily grab a bite to eat nearby at Burdines Waterfront and Castaway Waterfront Restaurant & Sushi Bar, both less than a mile away. Starfish Marathon Snorkeling Tours is only a few steps away, with great barrier reef tours and specialty cruises, and Sea dog Marathon Fishing Charters is ready to take you out for a full day of saltwater fishing.
