ABOUT YOUR STAY

Our thoughtfully prepared two-bedroom condo offers a comfortable place to unwind—whether you’re here for quiet beach days or exploring the Florida Keys. Located on the first floor for easy access, you’re just steps from the private, sandy beach and a short walk to the heated pool.

What we love most about Salt & Sun at Sea Isles is how naturally the pace slows down here. Mornings begin with coffee and ocean air, and afternoons drift easily between the beach, the pool, and quiet time inside.

Guests appreciate the balance—peaceful island living with everything close by. Key Colony Beach feels tucked away and relaxed, yet you’re only a short drive from Marathon’s dining, shops, and local adventures.

We are always happy to help during your stay and are available if you need anything or would like recommendations for enjoying the area. We’d love to welcome you to Salt & Sun at Sea Isles, where your time in the Keys can unfold slowly, just as it should.

The property is beautiful and well maintained. The pool was nice but the real beauty is the beach area. The hosts were quick to respond and friendly. The unit was clean and well equipped. There is a coin operated laundry on site if needed. We will definitely return.

We had the most wonderful time in Marathon! It was so wonderful to wake up every morning and be steps from the sound of the waves. At night, it was a short walk to Sunset Park to catch the picture perfect sunsets. Michael was very easy to communicate with and provided so much helpful information on the island. We are already planning dates for next years trip!

ABOUT SALT & SUN

We first fell in love with Key Colony Beach for its calm rhythm and welcoming feel—a place where life slows just enough to notice what matters. That feeling stayed with us, and it’s what inspired us to create Salt & Sun.

As a mother-daughter team, we care for this two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo with intention and attention to detail. We’re personally involved in preparing the space and communicating with guests, with the hope that each stay feels comfortable, simple, and well cared for.

To us, Salt & Sun is more than a place to stay. It’s a space to rest, reconnect, and enjoy the slower pace of the Florida Keys. Whether it’s a quiet morning, time spent by the water, or an evening unwinding together, we hope your stay brings a sense of ease and renewal.

If you need anything during your time here, we’re always happy to help.

Why they chose this property

We were drawn to Key Colony Beach for its calm, walkable setting and the gentle rhythm of island living. It’s a peaceful, welcoming community surrounded by turquoise water—perfect for morning beach walks, unhurried afternoons, and evenings that end with the colors of the sunset.

Just minutes away, Marathon offers easy access to restaurants, shops, and local experiences like kayaking, snorkeling, and fishing, along with visits to the Dolphin Research Center and Turtle Hospital. It’s a balance we’ve come to love—quiet and uncrowded, yet close to everything you might need.

What makes this property unique

What makes Salt & Sun special is the way it brings together a peaceful setting, natural beauty, and simple comfort.

Located in a quiet oceanfront community in the Florida Keys, the condo is just steps from a private sandy beach—no crowds, just soft sand, ocean air, and the steady rhythm of the water. Guests can enjoy the heated pool, tiki huts with grills, shuffleboard, and beautifully maintained grounds that invite you to slow down and stay awhile.

Whether you’re spending time with those you love or enjoying a quiet escape, the space is designed to feel easy, comfortable, and welcoming. You’ll feel tucked away and at ease, yet still close to local restaurants, activities, and everything Marathon has to offer.
